The early years of the crater's history are uncertain: local geologists say the collapse into a crater happened in the 1960s, and the gases were not set on fire until the 1980s. It was estimated that the gas would burn out within a few weeks, but it has instead continued to burn for more than 50 years and is expected to keep on burning. Įxpecting dangerous releases of poisonous gases from the cavern into nearby towns the engineers considered it advisable to burn the gas off. Soon after the preliminary survey found a natural gas pocket, the ground beneath the drilling rig and camp collapsed into a wide crater and the rig was buried with no casualties. The engineers set up a drilling rig and operations to assess the quantity of oil available at the site. It was originally thought to be a substantial oil field site. The Darvaza gas crater and the surrounding area, including where the tents usually are pitched, a couple of hundred meters away to the south of the crater.Īccording to Turkmen geologist Anatoly Bushmakin, the site was identified by Soviet engineers in 1971. The surrounding area is also popular for wild desert camping. The crater has become a popular tourist attraction. Its diameter is 69 m (226 ft), and its depth is 30 m (98 ft). One of the more popular theories is that Soviet geologists intentionally set it on fire in 1971 to prevent the spread of methane gas, and it is thought to have been burning continuously ever since. Īccurate records of how the crater ignited have not been discovered, and some facts are disputed. The Darvaza gas crater (Turkmen media use the name Shining of the Karakum: Turkmen: Garagum ýalkymy), also known as the Door to Hell or Gates of Hell, is a burning natural gas field collapsed into a cavern near Darvaza, Turkmenistan. Our advice? Get the bandages and Bone Needles first, before all this happens - or alternatively, don't sleep so low to the ground. If your health has dropped by this point, make sure to eat and drink something. An Ash Dressing or Leaf Bandage are the best things to use. Once you've dug the worm out, you'll need to bandage yourself up - or you'll get an Infection. Then, drag the needle from your backpack to the location of the worm on your body. Just harvest a bone and you should get two Bone Needles. Alternatively, kill a medium animal or human and tear one out that way. You'll probably get some maggots and bones. If you don't have one, you'll need to find an animal or human carcass somewhere on the ground. To get a Bone Needle you first need a bone. The main way to get rid of worm parasites is with a Bone Needle, which is something you need to craft - you can't just find them lying about. You can get worms by sleeping on the ground, or sleeping too low to the ground. They burrow under your skin and can cause your sanity to drop if not removed, to the point where you eventually go insane. Worms are the absolute worst in Green Hell, other than a jaguar eating your face off. How to craft a Green Hell Bone Needle and remove a worm parasite
