Dee is correct omg. You got robbed for that point :D I was born in Istanbul. Turkey is literally a half island country that has land both in Europe and Asia. We're literally sharing islands with Greece, that is also in European continent lol.
I love the geography nerds in all of us. 🪨 🪵 know she told him about tectonic plates and political history that makes turkey a large country. Why would i participate as if i came to lose 🤷🏾♀️
I believe it's called a Limnic eruption. The right circumstances have to be present for it to happen. You need a crater lake with the crater below belching out carbon dioxide. But the lake has to be deep enough to create enough water pressure at the bottom to cause the carbon dioxide to dissolve and hang around at the bottom. The water at the lake bottom also has to remain undisturbed so that it doesn't normally circulate up to the top. When all these conditions are in place, the CO2 gradually exudes from the crater and dissolves in the water over the course of years, decades - maybe even centuries. Then it takes one freak event like an underwater landslide and, just like when you throw a Mentos mint into a bottle of coca cola, all the dissolved CO2 just suddenly bursts up from the bottom in gaseous form. Because CO2 is denser than air it spreads out away from the lake and fills environment from the lowest point upward. Your best chances of survival is to be in an area that's reasonably elevated above the lake so that the CO2 spreads out enough before it gets your elevation to suffocate you. The guy in the story was at higher elevation and that likely played a part in his survival. I believe today they use special equipment to gradually remove the CO2 from the bottom so that it can't build up to cause a massive deadly eruption.
I just did some digging. Found that a vent was added in 2001...then an additional two more in 2011. These appear to have been successful as they've been degassing the lake safely.
There are multiple lakes in that area that are at risk for this, as well as other hazards, because of the amount of natural gasses like carbon dioxide, methane, etc. they contain. Shit is scary.
Damn! That's messed up. I suppose people do feel like it's home and they're willing to risk their lives to be where they know. I don't think that's any different from any other natural disaster where people have seen alot of death and destruction but they return home. The people from New Orleans who were displaced wanted to return home after hurricane Katrina even though it wasn't safe to do so. They lost everything. People who've experienced hurricanes, major snowstorms where people have died, typhoons, a majority of these people return home if they've survived. I've moved alot just because of life issues so even though moving is stressful, something like a major disaster would encourage me to move elsewhere. But with global warming it's not really "safe" anywhere as far as major weather events are concerned.
I really could go without reactions to this channel. You can tell dude exaggerates a bit and sets up the story the same way every single time. Its boring atp, not dee but the videos from that channel
The best new one was "Frightening proof you can live a past life" and a slightly older one "Insane true story of Cocaine Bear" which is being made into a movie coming out this month. Both are fascinating, I think you'd like them. Much love 💚🤍🧡
