The more you try to cover something, the more
attention it gets. Most of us are likely to take a few secrets to the
grave because revealing them could be fatal. For instance if Coca Cola
told everyone about its secret ingredient, it wouldn’t be the world’s
no. 1 soft drink. But secrets become mysteries after a certain period of
time and we can’t help but ponder over them. So here we are bringing you
the some world’s biggest secrets of all time:

U.S. Nuclear Secrets
Perhaps, this is notably the most highly protected information in the
world. The nuclear facilities by themselves are a secret and only
specific people know where they are located. The nuclear launch codes
are the most secretive information of the U.S. government, such that
only top officials in the U.S. department of defense have access to
these codes. The amount of nuclear weapons and the type of nuclear
weapon that USA possesses remain undisclosed to the public. The public
will never get to know of the nuclear information.
As a super power, it is clearly understandable why the U.S government
keeps the information a secret. Anyone who can access the information by
illegal means will certainly put his life in danger. The information is
highly guarded for security purpose against any rival nuclear country.
This poses a big concern of what would happen if a nuclear war emerged.
God forbid! |

Oil deposits location in USA
The location of the exact mining for oil remains a top government secret
in the U.S. But how does the government keep it a secret? Rumors has it
that once oil deposits are found on your land and you report it, the
government will then buy the land and you have to swear to keep the
location a secret. The reason why the locations are kept a secret is to
prevent the rich individuals from purchasing the lands to build their
own wells and make big chunks of money from the oil. Thus, the
information regarding the location of oil deposits is kept top secret by
the U.S government. |

U.S Medical Secrets
In reference to the United States of America’s laws, the medical
information of any patient is supposed to be kept secret. This seems to
be an obvious case of privacy, but, is it? Many say that some doctors
would even risk their lives to keep a patient’s medical report a secret.
The government formulated this law so as to prevent any sort of
humiliation that can affect the patients. The oath that medical officer
take to keep the patients’ medical information a secret is known as the
Hippocratic Oath. The medical information of patients is to remain
classified unless the safety of the patient or the safety of others is
involved. As such, the medical files are only accessed by authorized
personnel and one would require legal or medical approval to access
them. Thus, the U.S medical secrets are among the world’s top biggest
secrets. |

The Hapsburg Napkin Fold
Of all the world’s biggest secrets, would you believe that folding the
Hapsburg Napkin is a top government secret in Austria? Well, as funny as
it may sound, this is true. In Austria, folding the Hapsburg napkin is a
royal act that entails secret guidelines on how to fold the napkin.
The special fold was used at the royal tables in Austria-Hungary
royalty. The most interesting fact is that many have tried to fold it
but have failed. Actually, there are no written guidelines anywhere in
the world on how to fold it. The process of folding the Habsburg napkin
encompasses procedures that are only known by close and trusted state
officials. These people swear and take an oath that the design will
remain a state secret at all costs. But why keep this a secret? Rumor
has it that it is a royal culture that is meant to remain a secret
forever. |

KFC Recipe
Ever wondered what recipe KFC uses while preparing its meals? Well, stop
wondering, you will never know. The recipe is a top world secret that
the company has managed to keep undisclosed ever since it was set up.
The secret recipe was made by Herland Sanders in 1930 at Kentucky. His
famous chicken dish which he sold to the residents in North Cabin, was
so delicious such that everyone talked about it. With this success, Mr.
Sanders’s business grew so rapidly that he had to form a chain of
restaurants across the world. Today, KFC is among the biggest
restaurants in the world. Perhaps, this can be attributed to its secret
recipe that has remained a mystery to the public. The recipe is secretly
kept at the headquarters of the company and is highly guarded.

Adolf Hitler
History tells that on 30th April 1945, Adolf Hitler killed himself in
his underground bunker. Is this really true? Or did the soviets lie to
the world? Evidence from the new declassified FBI documents shows that
the government had information that Hitler was alive after World War II.
He was supposedly living in the Andes Mountains.
Could Hitler have faked his own death? The release of the FBI documents
clearly shows that Hitler’s suicide was perfectly faked. This is quite
possible because he was the most hated man in the world at the time so
he had to find a way to escape the war-struck Germany, for his own
survival. What is more shocking is that the FBI knew all this but it was
kept a secret.

HIV/AIDS
Since the 1980s, there has been a lot of debate regarding the origin of
HIV and many theories have been formulated. Many people suggest that
HIV/Aids originated from Africa, but, is it really true? Some believe
that the deadly disease was manufactured in a laboratory by scientists.
That the HIV virus is man-made! As if this weren’t enough, conspiracy
theorists also believe that the cure for HIV/AIDS has been found. But
hasn’t it been shared to the world? Why are they afraid of? Or are they
using the HIV/AIDS disease as a weapon? It’s only a matter of time
before the secret cure is revealed to the world.

highly guarded top secret in the world? It is so top secret that the
company had to cancel its operation in India because it would have been

made sure that the notes were not handed to her because the formula
