THE DOOR TO HELL

Oh yeah that is real! The picture above is from a place called Darvaza, a village in Turkmenistan. The hole was the result after a drilling rig in 1971 collapsed that resulted in a crater. Since the hole is full of poisonouse gases, they decided to light the it to stop the spread of those harmful gases and hoping that it would consume and exhaust all in days. But after many decades, it still burns up to this.

This burning crater was nicknamed by the locals "The Door To Hell".Check out the video from Youtube below to see how amazingly strange this place is.
