Omani cave explorers; They became the first humans to descend to the bottom of the 112-metre-long ‘Hell Well’ in Yemen, which is believed by some to be a ‘jinn prison’ or ‘a supervolcano capable of destroying the Earth’.

In a study carried out last week, some dead animals and various cave formations were found at the bottom of the ‘Berehut Well’ sinkhole.

Descending to the bottom of the well for the first time

Berehut Well, about which many legends are told in the region; It is known as the ‘Hell Well’ among the people because it is believed to be a door to hell due to the bad smells it emits. Amateur explorers had previously descended into a sinkhole in the middle of a desert in al-Mahra, on the border with Oman; however, this is the first discovery to go down to the bottom of the well.

A group of 10 people from the Oman Cave Exploration Team set up a pulley system and 8 of them went down the circular entrance with a diameter of 30 meters and explored the Berehut Well, with the bewildered looks of the people around.

The final report of the discovery will be published in the coming weeks.

Omani researchers, the first people to go down to the bottom of the well, announced that snakes, frogs, insects, dead animals, cave pearls and stalagmites were found in the sinkhole. According to the news of Live Science, it was reported that some of the stalagmites at the bottom of the cave reached up to 9 meters. Researchers also noted that small waterfalls flowed through the holes in the walls of the sinkhole.

Geologist Leslie Melim, who was not involved in the research; He thinks that the water needed for the formation of stalagmites and cave pearls may have been provided by these waterfalls. Geologist Muhammed al-Kindi, one of the members of the team, said that they collected rock, soil, dead animals and water samples from the sinkhole; however, he shared that these samples have not been analyzed yet.

The final report of the discovery is expected to be published in the coming weeks. Here is the bottom of the Hell Pit:
