The Door to Hell: Take a look inside a giant hole in the desert which has been on fire for more than 40 YEARS


At first glance, it could be a dramatic scene from a science-fiction movie.
But this giant hole of fire in the heart of the Karakum Desert is not the aftermath of an attack on Earth, launched from outer space.
It is a crater made by geologists more than 40 years ago, and the flames within have been burning ever since.
Welcome to Derweze in Turkmenistan - or, as the locals have called it, 'The Door to Hell'.

The real cause of Global Warming is explained at last. Forget about panic about coal fired power stations, forget about the finger wagging over the so called gas guzzlers. The real reason behing Global Warming suddenly increasing forty years ago is because of a massive natural gas leak burning merrily away in the Karakum Desert. Time to stop the hysterical panic and get things back to normal instead of sacrificing ourselves at the Alter of Global Warmism. The only question I have is who the heck is paying the gas bill for it?
