How Lake Nyos looked after the methane explosion

"A major theory is that oceans can and have produced methane gas, and was responsible for the Permian Mass Extinction. This explosion killed up to 95% of life on earth during that period. A seafloor basin of methane saturated water may have a breaking point. An earthquake, underwater landslide, or even a meteor impact could have triggered this, and suddenly, like shaking a giant soda bottle, the deepest part of the ocean would have exploded in a deadly storm of methane bubbles."

Something similar happened in 1986 in Lake Nyos in the nation of Cameroon in Africa. This created a ground level carbon dioxide cloud that killed many nearby villagers. This is also mentioned in this video. Watch it below:

Comment: The segment of the video was posted in 2010 and it is all happening today! With that knowledge in mind the following events from the last few months make even more sense and is a dire warning of our near future:

• Methane gas seeping out of the ground in China

• Persistently high methane concentrations show up over Beaufort Sea in the Arctic

• Casualties of seafloor methane gas release? Hundreds of thousands more fish found dead in Plymouth tidal pool, UK

• Hundreds of methane plumes erupting along U.S. Atlantic coast

• Earth is opening up: Mysterious Siberian crater attributed to methane

• Vast methane plumes discovered escaping from Arctic seafloor north of Siberia

• Final death toll from massive Harlem explosion: 8 - Cause remains unknown, but investigators suspect natural outgassing after discovering unusually high levels of methane in soil
