Ep 142 - Death Lurking in the Deep - Limnic Eruptions

Listen, as we know, there are terrible things in lakes. Monsters. There are monsters. This week we learn that there ALSO can be buildups of poison underneath lakes that can 'erupt' at any time and do a clean sweep of all animal life around it. We'll talk about two times in recent history (and we have reason to believe it happened in ancient times) when methane gas killed everyone around Lake Kivu and Lake Nyos in Africa. More terrifying ways the earth can kill you, good thing we're taking such good care of her, right?
