The Gates of Hell in Turkmenistan 🔥 Check my Instagram Stories for more of this adventure in the Karakum desert! - The Gates of Hell crater was created in 1971 when a Soviet drilling rig accidentally punched into a massive underground natural gas cavern, causing the ground to collapse and the entire drilling rig to fall in. Having punctured a pocket of gas, poisonous fumes began leaking at an alarming rate. To head off a potential environmental catastrophe, the Soviets set the hole alight, figuring it would stop burning within a few weeks. Decades later, and the fiery pit is still going strong. #gatesofhell #turkmenistan #darvaza #darvazagascrater #travelgram #travelawesome
What an insane adventure! Ethiopia, my 90th UN country. Pictured: the Dallol sulfur springs at the Danakil Depression in Afar.
