The Gates of hell #factsnews #shorts
This hole in the Turkmenistan desert has been on fire for 50 years. It all started back in the 1970s. It is located in the heart of the Karakum Desert, about 260 kilometers north of Ashgabat, the capital of Turkmenistan. Soviet geologists were unknowingly drilling above a massive natural gas cavern. This caused the ground to collapse and the entire drilling rig to fall in. A pocket of gas became punctured during this mishap, and poisonous fumes began to leak at an alarming rate. To prevent the dangerous spread of methane gas, a decision was made to burn off the gas, expecting it to burn out in just a few weeks. But now, over 50 years later, the crater is still on fire, providing a relentless spectacle known as the Gates of Hell.
Despite the harsh environment, the Gates of Hell has become one of Turkmenistan's most unusual tourist attractions. The burning, glowing crater offers a surreal spectacle, particularly at night, attracting visitors from around the world.
The Gates of Hell offers a stark reminder of the power and unpredictability of the natural world #factsnews #shorts #
