The Gates of Hell in Turkmenistan

The mystery surrounding the Gates of Hell in Turkmenistan only adds to its otherworldly aura. While its exact beginnings remain uncertain, with records either missing or off-limits, there are various theories about how the flaming pit came to be. Some local experts contend that it collapsed in the 1960s, but the fire wasn't set until the 1980s as a measure against poisonous gases coming from the area. Either way, it's a disturbing mystery yet to be unlocked.
