Turkmenistan Plans to Close its Blazing 'Gates of Hell'
These past few years have felt like a trial run of living through the end times. Thankfully, 2022 seems like it’s off to a promising start: Turkmenistan plans to close the blazing natural gas crater known as the “Gateway to Hell,” presumably to keep the other three horsemen of the apocalypse from following their buddy Pestilence through it.
Citing environmental and economic concerns, Berdymukhamedov called for officials to “find a solution to extinguish the fire,” according to AFP. The crater, which measures roughly 200 feet wide and at least 65 feet deep and looks like a fiery portal to another world, “negatively affects both the environment and the health of the people living nearby,” he said.
“We are losing valuable natural resources for which we could get significant profits and use them for improving the well-being of our people,” he said via AFP. This isn’t the first time Berdymukhamedov has tried to close the gates of hell. He ordered experts to extinguish the flames in 2010, but their efforts were unsuccessful.
