Mysterious giant hole
Mysterious giant hole appeared in Yamal Peninsula in Russia. I have never seen holes like this before: the hole is about 262 feet (80 meters) in diameter.
Did this hole appear due to Gazprom drilling? Or it has to do with Earth changes or extraterrestrials?

Re: Mysterious giant hole
Hi Εἰρήνη,
It's obvious you're brand new around here, so first off
.
The article you're suggesting is already carried on SotT:
http://www.sott.net/article/281997-SOTT-EXCLUSIVE-Sinkhole-meteor-crater-or-something-else-Giant-hole-spotted-in-remote-Yamal-Peninsula-northern-Siberia
There's also a thread about this object on the forum:
SOTT сводка, июнь 2014: болиды, экстремальная погода и планетарные изменения
You would be well advised to first check out the forum and SotT via their respective search functions before posting anything, to avoid unnecessary duplicates or other 'noise'.
It's understandable you're not familiar yet with how things work around here; so not to worry or to mull over it -- with continued participation you'll get familiar with all of it soon enough.
Looking forward to your next contributions. :)

Team reaches the giant Siberian hole at 'the end of the world'
Could this latest sinkhole or crater or whatever it is, be symbolic of things to come? Located in Siberia at a place called Yamal, which translates as "end of the world", and a sinkhole being symbolic of the society rotting from within, I think it could be.

Sorry for posting a link to an article already being discussed; I did do a search but for some reason nothing turned up.
Very interesting eyewitness report of the latest massive sinkhole opening up in Florida:
http://abcnews.go.com/US/day-sinkhole-emerges-florida/story?id=24638029
Note the lady saying: "Very scary. Out of nowhere the earth just went straight up in the air, exploded in the air, then fell down"...
That may be what happened in Yamal too.

Maybe it was already mentioned elsewhere, but, apparently, similar hole was discovered in Gydan peninsula, and there is also a third hole discovered in Tajmyr peninsula. All three holes are located on the same 70 degrees latitude.
Article in Russian: _http://www.rg.ru/2014/07/24/reg-urfo/akademik.html
The third hole was discovered in 2012 by a hunter. The hole is vertical, 4 meters in diameter and very deep. More than 100 meters deep.
Also, in comparison to Yamal hole, where the ground was dispersed for 120 meters, here the ground was dispersed for 900 meters from the epicenter.
They talk about the same "global warming" reason, including methane explosion. No pictures though. Maybe later after they will send there expedition.

Update with more photo's and map of craters in three locations:
Mystery of the Siberian crater deepens: Scientists left baffled after two NEW holes appear in Russia’s icy wilderness
_http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2708345/Mystery-Siberian-crater-deepens-Scientists-left-baffled-two-NEW-holes-appear-Russias-icy-wilderness.html#ixzz38mEZ0x78
New unexplained holes have appeared in Siberia following the mystery over a giant crater on the Yamal Peninsula.
A second is in the same permafrost region of northern Russia, and a third on the Taymyr Peninsula, to the east, in Kransoyark region. Both were spotted by reindeer herders who almost fell in.
The original hole received worldwide attention after being identified by helicopter pilots some 20 miles (32km) from a huge gas extraction plant at Bovanenkov.
The new Yamal crater (pictured) is in the area’s Taz district near the village of Antipayuta and has a diameter of about 49ft (15 metres). According to local residents, the hole formed on 27 September 2013
Now the new holes – smaller in diameter but similar in shape – are posing a fresh challenge for Russian scientists.
‘Theories range from meteorites, stray missiles, a man-made prank, and aliens, to an explosive cocktail of methane or shale gas suddenly exploding,’ reported The Siberian Times.
‘The version about melting permafrost due to climate change, causing a release of methane gas, which then forces an eruption is the current favourite, though scientists are reluctant to offer a firm conclusion without more study.’
The new Yamal crater is in the area’s Taz district near the village of Antipayuta and has a diameter of about 49ft (15 metres).
The third crater is in the Taymyr Peninsula and was accidentally discovered by reindeer herders who almost fell into it, in the vicinity of the remote outpost of Nosok. The funnel is a perfectly formed cone, say locals who are mystified over its formation. Its depth is estimated at between 200 to 330ft (60 to 100 metres) and its diameter – more than 13ft (four metres)
