Is it true that the Russian Hellmouth sound was recorded? I overheard it recently.

False

Russian Hell's Gate Incident

Somewhere around 1989, it was said that a Soviet drilling science team, headed by Dr. Dmitri Azzacov, drilled a 1,450-meter-deep borehole, somewhere in Siberia, and then they sent some of the science equipment down this very deep hole to the deepest part of the well, and it was said that, according to their measurements, the temperature at the deepest part was as high as 1,100 degrees Celsius, but what was really scary wasn't the high temperature, it was that when they sent an audio recording device to the deepest part of the hole, it recorded a 17-second-long recording, which scared the researchers because it sounded like a lot of people screaming, and in the background there also appeared to be have the roar of flames and the churning of lava.

The crews were convinced they were hearing voices from hell, and many of them called it quits at the time, rolled up their bags and went home. But the horror story is not over, in that night, the remaining members of the scientific research in the sleep, suddenly by the violent shaking shook awake, and heard a huge sound from the direction of the wellhead out, so they quickly get up, and run to the wellhead together, who knew that at this time, they saw let them a lifetime of unforgettable wonders: a turquoise green light from the depths of the cave out of a large number of green smoke, some members of the scientific research, and the wellhead of the wellhead of a large number of green smoke, and the wellhead of the wellhead of the wellhead of a large number of green smoke, and the wellhead of the wellhead of a large number of green smoke. Some members of the team smelled the strong odor of gas, and when they were too amazed to speak, a humanoid creature with huge wings slowly flew out of the cave and said in a very dull voice: "I will conquer you". The huge figure then quickly flew off towards the sky and disappeared from the sight of the science team.

The panicked science researchers were pissing themselves and many fainted outright from the shock.

I don't know what language this demon was supposed to speak after half a day's thought, but since it was a Soviet thing, let it speak Russian.

After the incident, the Soviet authorities, as usual, quickly blocked the news, in order to stabilize the mood of these direct witnesses to the incident, the medical staff injected them with a large number of is a tranquilizer, the formula of this tranquilizer is confidential, is said to be the Soviet Union at the time of the development of a secret weapon, used for interrogation, the use of law and order, the effect of which is that, after receiving an injection, the person who has been injected will be quickly fall asleep, and lose short-term memory, the effect is similar to that of the Soviet Union, the effect of which is similar to that of the Russian language.

The leader, Dr. Azakov, has not been seen since.

So the drilling accident was never mentioned again, as no one involved remembers the horror.

The story, which first appeared in 1989 in a regional Christian newspaper, received mainstream media attention, and became a real-life example of how Christians could prove that "hell is real," and was widely publicized.

The story was then picked up by the mainstream media and used by Christians to prove that "hell is real", and was widely circulated, eventually becoming a famous urban legend - the Soviet Union's Hellmouth.

Since the story gives itself an exact date of 1989, it is not difficult to follow the story's development. The Christian newspaper in which the story first appeared is called the Trinity Broadcasting Network. This "Trinity Broadcasting Network" was created for missionary purposes, and in addition to shortwave broadcasting, it also published a tabloid newspaper, which was basically based on its broadcasts, so this story was titled "Scientists Have Discovered Hell! The story was given the headline "Scientists Have Discovered Hell", and it was played up on their broadcasts and ran as a front-page headline in the publication.

Society is very interested in this story because it is very much able to satisfy people's religious fantasies because, you know, people live in the world and they can never live their whole lives without making some mistakes, and so to a greater or lesser extent, anyone who is religiously minded is going to be influenced to think about whether or not there is a "hell". So, more or less, anyone will be influenced by some religious thinking to focus on topics like whether there is a hell and a heaven. For the preachers, the proof of the existence of hell is the proof of the existence of heaven, and since both hell and heaven exist, God must exist, and after death, one either knocks on the door of St. Peter's or goes to chat with Satan.

Russia's Hellmouth Widespread

The Trinity Broadcasting Network found the story to be a popular one, and soon wrote a lengthy article on the Hellmouth, and in February 1990, published Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord), but they still didn't find it enjoyable, and most importantly, readers felt that they hadn't seen enough of the story, then two months later, they published another article, Midnight Cry, which had its readers screaming for more, and newspaper sales and listenership grew by the bucketload, earning more money for God.

How could one media outlet keep such a buzz going? Other Christian newspapers saw how successful the Trinity Broadcasting Network was with a single story, and followed suit, either with an in-depth treatment of the story, or by reprinting the Trinity Broadcasting Network's story in large or full-length articles. The story of the "Trinity Broadcasting Network" was reprinted in large parts or in its entirety.

But not all of them are on board. After all, not everyone has faith, and not all of those who have faith are that faithful. Even within the ranks of Christian believers, there are plenty of skeptics, and they tend to be more examinative than the average person, with some traveling as far as Siberia in search of the so-called gates of hell.

In fact, it's up to these skeptical religious believers to solve this urban mystery, which we'll get to later.

With the efforts of these people who have the spirit of examination and evidence, everyone discovered the fact that in Siberia, there is not a so-called perforation project, because the geological structure of the region is simply impossible to carry out such a scientific research project. But the former Soviet Union did have a few deep borehole research projects, one of the most famous is the Kola Superdeep Borehole (Kola Superdeep Borehole), but is this Kola Superdeep Borehole the legendary so-called Hell's Gate?

We can come to the information based on the comparison.

Kola Superdeep Borehole project is located in northwestern Russia's Kola Peninsula, its location has almost reached Norway, only 16 kilometers away from the Norwegian border, from Siberia eighteen thousand miles, so first of all from the geographic location, the project does not meet the legendary "Siberia" of the The project does not fit the description of the legendary "Siberia" location.

So what kind of project is this?

The project was one of a series of drilling studies carried out by the Soviet authorities on the Kola Peninsula in 1970, and there was not just one hole. The project was launched on May 24, the 100th anniversary of Lenin's birth in 1970, and the purpose of the research was actually to study the influence and role of sedimentary rocks in the extraction of oil.

You may be asking, are these people fed up? Why are they drilling holes into the ground for fun?

Drilling holes is a scientific experiment in geology, ostensibly to study geological topics such as the earth's surface, mantle, and core, studies that also affect the space programs that both the U.S. and the Soviet Union were conducting at the time, such as the moon landings - only with a full study of our geological structure can we better understand the stars of outer space. Of course, another huge benefit of studying geology is being able to figure out whether or not there is oil in the area, or how we can extract it more efficiently, and other specific energy issues.

In fact, at that time, the world's oil-producing countries were actively conducting similar drilling experiments, such as the United States as early as 1957, began a deep drilling program, the name of this program is called the "Morton Project" (Project Mohole), this program is in the Cold War period, the beginning of the space race, to provide geological information. This program, called Project Mohole, was created to provide a geological complement to the space race that began during the Cold War, and more importantly, to study oil exploration. The program was funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), and was a fully state-sponsored research program.

After the start of this program, in 1961 the drillship CUSS I in the Gulf of Mexico offshore at a depth of 3,558 meters in the area of 5 deep sea drilling, this is the first time that mankind has succeeded in drilling wells on the deep seabed, and the wells in the basalt was studied in detail, but because of the whole project's prospects are not clear, and the cost of the capital investment has not been a full estimate, so in the program. Nine years after the program began, the U.S. House of Representatives rejected funding for the program in 1966, and the program was terminated.

But there were many other programs started at the same time, and even within the United States, there were four other deep drilling programs going on at the same time, and even doing very well.

The Berthar Rogers ultra-deep well in Oklahoma, for example, had already reached a depth of 9,583 meters in the United States when the Soviet program began, and the Soviets broke through that depth a full nine years later.

But such national-level scientific research projects in the United States are restricted by the domestic Congress, which has halted them one after another with no cap on investment between the start of these projects and 20 years later.

But the Soviet Union had a completely different political system than the United States, so the Kola ultra-deep well project was able to continue.

When the Kola Ultra Deep Well first started, the drilling was very smooth and steady for the first 7,000 meters, drilling through very hard granite, but after more than 7,000 meters, the drill bit went into less hard layered rock, and so the project has been in a great deal of trouble ever since because there are so many voids in the subsurface that the drill bit is always falling into them because it is drilling into the voids, either Because the rock was so soft, it was firmly stuck for unknown reasons, and such accidents happened more than once or twice, and continued for years throughout the subsequent project.

But during this drilling process, Soviet geologists conducted a great deal of research and analysis on the causes of geological formation, which was a huge advance for geology.

In June 1979, the Kola ultra-deep well finally broke through the American drilling record, this time from the beginning of the project has been 9 years, in the Kola Peninsula, the Soviet Union has also established as many as 16 laboratories in different locations for various holes in the geological exploration and research, and the Soviet authorities attach great importance to the project of the Kola ultra-deep well, and even by the Ministry of Geology of the USSR to personally carry out project The exploration results were also reported directly to the central government of the USSR.

In 1983, the SG-3 drill bit reached an unprecedented 12,066 meters, which also broke the record for the deepest human drilling into the Earth's interior, but they did not continue to drill deeper, because all the engineers and geologists had to go back to Moscow to participate in the International Geological Congress held in Moscow in 1984, and so the project came to an end for the time being.

On September 27, 1984, the geologists returned to the work site and, after consulting the Soviet authorities, began further work. However, a drilling accident soon occurred when the record-breaking drill bit suddenly fell into a hole in the ground and the 12,066-meter-deep well was scrapped, leaving the group to return to the 7,000-meter platform to start a new drill.

It took 13 years for the last drill to reach 12,066 meters, and although a lot of valuable experience has been gained this time around and the technology for drilling at depth has continued to evolve, six more years have passed since the depth was reached, and this time, the depth reached by the drill bit once again set a new drilling record for mankind, reaching an unprecedented 12,262 meters, which is the highest ever. When everyone was ready to start celebrating, the turn of the head once again encountered the underground cavity off, the project is once again in trouble.

12,226-meter borehole

This period, with the turmoil of the situation in Eastern Europe, and the intensification of internal conflicts in the Soviet Union itself, as well as the rapid decline in the standard of living of the entire Soviet Union camp, the Soviet Union can no longer afford to support such a costly and time-consuming scientific research project, so since 1991, the project has been indefinitely put on hold, although there are still some scientists

While there are still some scientists and explorers working in the laboratories on the Kola Peninsula, and the Kola Ultra-Deep Well project still has a lot of equipment in operation, the basic drilling program has been completely stopped.

Finally, when the Soviet Union collapsed, the Kola project was taken over by Russia, but the Russians weren't very interested in the project, and as the country's institutions changed drastically, the researchers had to start soliciting funds from social organizations. But there were so many unknowns and so few prospects for the project that at the beginning of the 21st century, the last researchers to stick with the program were withdrawn from the Kola Peninsula, and the Kola Ultra-Deep Well was shut down for good.

Because of the many buildings that remain on the Kola Peninsula, the question for the Russian authorities was whether to continue the scientific research facility or simply demolish it. This issue was also debated for six or seven years, and finally in 2008, the Russian authorities demolished all of the above-ground buildings and recovered all of the scientific equipment, which is now being used to run schools for the targeted training of drilling specialists.

As you can see, scientific research on the Kola Peninsula didn't end without a fight due to some sudden and unforeseen circumstance, the project was carried out on and off for more than 30 years, and if the legend of the so-called Hell's Gate refers to this project, how can it be explained that the scientists who stayed on the Kola Peninsula's research camps worked on it from 1990 to the beginning of the 21st century? The number of people involved in this project is very large, counting researchers, researchers, related services, officials of the Soviet authorities, logistical support personnel and later after Russia took over the funding of enterprises, social institutions, state agencies, etc., etc., the number of people who know and understand the project up to tens of thousands of people, even in the Soviet Union period, this project is open to the community, after the drilling breakthrough in the world record! After the world record drilling breakthrough, the Soviet Union used to publicize the deep drilling project on the Kola Peninsula to show off the power of the Soviet Union, so the number of people involved in this project could be in the tens of millions, if it is true that, as the legend says, the terrified scientists were injected with tranquilizers in order to cause them to lose their memories, what will happen to the tens of thousands of people who are left behind? This is a cheap rumor that does not need to be verified, and can be discerned by a person's common sense alone.

Additionally, the timing doesn't add up.

According to the story and the depth of the Kola ultra-deep well, we may conclude that the location of the "hell" is about 12,000 meters below our feet, and that the first time it was reached was in 1983, and the second time in 1990. The first time this depth was reached was in 1983, and the second time it was reached was in 1990, neither of which corresponds to 1989, the year described in the story of the Gates of Hell.

If one were to make a strong, time-expansion argument, it would also be highly implausible. Assuming that in 1983, these Soviet experts really did drill into hell and accidentally damaged their roofs, inviting demons to come up and protest, and then the Soviet authorities, out of fear, washed away the memories of these Soviet experts and covered up the fact that they had damaged hellish property, then why did they have to start drilling the holes all over again in 1984? Did you not see it clearly last time and want to open it again? Or did they not learn their lesson from last time?

Some might explain that the first time they actually ran into an accident rather than seeing hell, and this time in 1990 they actually saw hell, so that's a good question! We all know that the exact depth of hell is 12,262 meters, and beyond that, there are property people from hell who come up to us and argue with us.

But the very year this project ended, the Qatari Ashoksin oil well broke that record, reaching 12,289 meters, and the Qataris didn't find anything but oil, maybe because there's no Satan on the Qatari side of the country, so hell doesn't have a branch on their side?

There must be a lot of occultists who would say: 12,289 meters is not much deeper than the Kola Super Deep Well, and hell would not be exactly at 12,262 meters, wouldn't it be a little deeper or a little shallower depending on the geology of each region?

It doesn't matter, because in 2011, another Russian oil project, the Odoptu OP-11 well in the Kuril Islands, broke the record again, drilling to 12,345 meters, which is almost 100 meters deeper than the Kola Super Deep, and still there is only oil, not a hell of a lot of people in sight.

Odoptu OP-11

But all this is a waste of time, and the most important thing is that the story spread by the Trinity Broadcasting Network has not yet been given a plausible source, which means that no one knows who was the first to tell it, let alone under what circumstances it was told. In other words, no one knows who was the first to tell the story, let alone the circumstances under which it was told.

It's as if you're in a hutong and you're drinking tea, and he's trying to drag you in to tell you a story about a friend's daughter-in-law who had a meal with the Queen Mother, and you're asking him what he can do to prove that he has a friend's daughter-in-law. This hutong mouth of the moncler outlet online said with a taboo smile: young people, these things can not be believed in full, but also can not be believed ah.

So you were very skeptical about what was said earlier, and just because this last sentence sounded more plausible, you thought the story was basically true.

We've mentioned in many of our Weird Tales articles that there are two very important elements to Weird Tales: the first is a plausible story; the second is a conspiracy theory.

Spreading government conspiracies is something that all media outlets love to do, because no one has the ability to verify them, and even if the government comes out and explains them, they can still find reasons to continue to make people suspect that they are part of a government conspiracy. Of course, spreading conspiracies of one's own government can easily be punctured by skeptics in one's own country, but spreading conspiracies of foreign governments is much safer, especially spreading conspiracies of totalitarian governments, such as the Soviet Union, which was pretty much the favorite trope of the Western media at the time, because the country was very secretive, and if their own people couldn't even verify the events, how could foreigners go about being able to do so?

So, after the Trinity Broadcasting Network continued to report on the Hellmouth issue, it finally drew the attention of major Christian media outlets in the United States. Christianity Today rewrote this bizarre story from the Trinity Broadcasting Network and ran it on its front page in July 1990, sending believers across the United States and throughout English-speaking Christendom into a frenzy. ironclad proof of the existence of hell, because Christianity Today is the authoritative Christian media outlet.
