New Mysterious Crater In Siberia Is Alien Feat? “End Of The World” 260-Foot Wide Creator In Russian Yamal Peninsula Not From Meteor [VIDEO]

A mysterious 260-foot-wide crater was found in the Yamal Peninsula of Sibera, Russia. The scientists are calling it, the “end of the world”. The strangest thing is that this wasn’t a meteor creation. In short, nobody seems to have a clue as to what caused this deep, gigantic hole in the ground. If the crater is not from a meteor, then could it be that it was an alien creation?

Watch the video below that shows a helicopter flying over the 260-foot crater in Siberia:

 

Russian officials have confirmed the existence of this huge crater and have sent a team of experts to look into this natural oddity. They have dispatched “scientists from the Center for Study of the Arctic and the Cryosphere Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences to take samples from around the scene”.

Many things are still up in the air, but one thing is for sure. This crater was not caused by a meteor. A spokesperson from Russia’s Emergencies Ministry told the Siberian Times, “"We can definitely say that it is not a meteorite. No details yet”.

They also think its not a regular sinkhole either. I would say let’s not discount the alien theory yet.

But the scientists, as always, are leaning towards an explanation that doesn’t involve aliens. They speculate that this giant hole in the ground is caused by a natural phenomenon called “pingo”, also known as “hydrolaccolith”. This phenomenon occurs “when ice pushes up from underneath the ground”, according to Yahoo News.

So what would make the ice push up from underneath? Well, climate change. The general warming of North Pole most likely have caused the ice to melt, producing a crater where the frozen water mass once was.

But others are also saying that this crater could be caused by an underground gas explosion as Russia’s largest gas field is just 20 miles away from the crater.

Or could this be a work of the aliens? One thing is for sure. Strange things are known to happen in Siberia.
