In July 2014, a helicopter pilot flying over Northern Russia's remote Yamal Peninsula came across a massive crater in the thick, permanently frozen subsurface layer of soil known as permafrost. As news of the gaping hole that measured an impressive 100-meters in diameter spread, people all over the world began wondering about its origin.

    Oh my! I know climate change was bad, but this is terrible! Even 3 years later, this is still a problem! I just hope craters don't form near towns and cities!

                I think is interesting that the climate change and methane explosions could have done a crater with 100m deep
