May 16, 2011: Floodgate of Hell
| In June 2010, a team of scientists and intrepid explorers stepped onto the shore of the lava lake boiling in the depths of Nyiragongo Crater, in the heart of the Great Lakes region of Africa. |
Lotta nice shots on the link.

Wow!
The lava outside the rim is twisted into weird black shapes that look very like the Bog Bodies retrieved from peat bogs. Or tortured souls climbing out of hell, if you'd rather.

These guys are crazy. They pretend they are taking all sorts of precautions and being careful, but one burp and they are all dead.

Print a bunch of copies of that first picture, and cut then to fit the bottom of potholes. Scare the crap out of people.
