    Mike, this has to be one of the most epic videos you've ever done. So kind of that family to invite you and Lexie over to share some of their food and fermented camel milk. Your videos really help prove the point that, for the most part, people in other parts of the world are generally friendly and aren't scary at all, as some people believe. It really makes me happy to see that. And wow...the Darvaza Gas Crater is impressive even during the day, but at night it's on a whole other level! Roasting marshmallows over it has to be one of the coolest things I've ever seen you do...and that's saying something! This Turkmenistan series was fantastic. Looking forward to the Trans-Siberia Railway series! 🐉🐉🐉🐉

    Once I was flying over Turkmenistan and spotted some roads in a wide desert area. So I followed the roads with my eyes and spotted this big black hole in the ground. It was very curiously interesting so I went back home and searched online.
    It was the Gateway To Hell and it was something I didn't expect exist. I guess seeing it from the sky and spotting was quite a thrill too!
