UFO Portal or Natural Phenomena?

Recent image released from Yamal peninsula in Northern Russia of a 262 feet wide hole. Just wondered what people's thoughts were on this? The media are stating global warming is the cause...

262 feet wide??
I dont know anything about the area but somebody would have noticed if it happened naturally, wouldn't they?

found this gem

In the language of its indigenous inhabitants, the Nenets, "Yamal" means "End of the World".

sinkhole? Found a link to an article....

My best guess? Mel's Hole is Baaack!!

How do you get UFO portal from a hole in the ground?

UFO portal. No doubt about it. It was made by the star cruiser in orbit. It gives them access to the underground pyramid or the sun inside the hollow earth.

One thing is certain it isn't a sinkhole.

Hey it's all good. We still get to fantasize about what caused it LOL

I am not buying the gas explosion brought on by global warming. We know global warming is false, based on recent revelations Besides there would be a lot of ejecta laying around and I don't see that.

What or who caused it? Not making any claims yet LOL

A Sink hole wouldn't have all that expelled soil around the edges.

A beam weapon?

That video is a better version than the one from DM. You can clearly see a tunnel beyond the opening in the earth's crust. It also appears to head off at an angle from the vertical hole on the surface.

It may have something to do with this...
Yamal Megaproject

There's no signs of machinery ever being in the area. It's either natural or extra-natural

I don't think it looks like ejecta. Possibly a limestone outcrop which has collapsed.

Come on man, a ufo portal? Really?
Its a hole in the ground how do you figure it could be a portal?

From the link ,

Global warming may have caused an 'alarming' melt in the under-soil ice, released gas and causing an effect like the popping of a Champagne bottle cork, Ms Kurchatova suggests

Looks like it was a build up of gas and booom!
