Burning gas trapped beneath frozen ground 🔥.Added:
Ever seen a frozen lake that catches fire? Sounds sci-fi, but it's real. In winter, breaking some lake ice releases burnable gas. Those white bubbles trapped under ice, methane from bacteria decomposing plants at the bottom in low oxygen cold. Can't escape, so bubbles freeze in place. Break the ice, gas escapes and ignites instantly. Stunning, but dangerous.
