Ancient Volcano in Moscow, Russia
Every spring and summer, when the ground warms up after winter frosts here and there parts of paved road go underground.
Moscow authorities can’t say what is the reason for those things to happen and usually can just suppose but don’t know for sure. But Moscow geologists seem to know the answer.
“Moscow city stands on the top of the giant ancient volcano”, says scientist, “we call often Moscow - the city on the seven hills (as well Rome and some other cities) but just a few know that those seven hill actually are the ancient volcano structure. It doesn’t matter that it is not active for thousands of years already, still there are so called ‘fluid streams’ gases from the center of the Earth comes to surface through ancient volcanoes, they cause the tremors of the surface and ruining the roads and buildings in Moscow.”. He also admitted that around 15% of Moscow city surface can get under the ground. And there is still a chance that the volcano can wake up. “It’s not to clear what causes some old and forgotten volcanoes that were not active for years to wake up suddenly”. In this case all the city would be buried.

Lulz. Badly for the people and cars q.q
OMG such a 3rd world poor trash country with road pot holes the size of a truck!!!! Only in poor Russia!
jebus superman. your worthless input is getting unbelievably annoying. (Ms India)
personally i can say looks like a proper place with nice roads, I mean it’s nature you idiot, you can’t controll nature
Blah blah volcanoes, it’s all the digging for the underground!
I hope it just stays as gas bubbles rising through ground! It would be very unpleasant for Moscow if the volcanoes wake up!
It’s just a bunch of sinkholes. What’s with the volcano story?
Not sure about the vulcano theory. Do we have some geological information about this in the net. I feel that there are more damages due to unprofessional building activities and leaking water pipes.
Pic 3, 6, 7 and 11 seems to show all the same site. It looks more like the nearby excavation caused a bearing capacity failure.
Wherever cars got stuck it looks like water excavated the underground and left only a thin tar skinn on the ground. So whenever a car put its load on the holow spot it brake thru the road.
This sounds like a good scientific explanation for the problem. I can believe it because once when I was still active daily as a commander in the Revolutionary Guard I was on a low-profile mission to Germany, and I stopped at a kebab stand, where the Turk vendor gave me spoiled meat (he must have somehow known I was a Persian, and his envy of a superior race brought out the mean spirit in him).
That evening my stomach felt like a volcano and, as you say, I developed a “fluid stream” that burst out of my anus, leaving a hole that felt like it surely must have been as large as the one the car fell into in the photo above.
Sorry for rambling about my memories of my early days as a hearty young recruiter of spies in Germany, but those kebabs . . . wow, I’ll never forget them.
I later sent someone to kill the kebab vendor, but he had already married a fat German girl and moved to her home in a nice neighborhood on the other side of the city, where he no longer had to work, and my killer could not get there because he did not have enough bus fare.
Wishing Moscow a fluid-free underground (and underpants, if the Turks are selling kebab nearby!)

I’ve had kebabs like that. Kinda make nuclear weapons seem like more work than they’re worth when a simple kebab can have you exploding on porcelain in a just little over an hour.
You are correct! Fortunately, at that time I was posing as a mild-mannered secular sophisticate, and I was staying in a nice modern Western-style hotel that had a private washroom for each room, and a Western-style toilet which I could sit on.
Such a toilet handled the “fluid stream” much better than the traditional toilets used in my part of the world, which of course is a hole in the floor. With such ablutions, there is nothing below the anus to channel the “fluid” as it spurts out, and often it sprays all over the back of one’s legs and ankles, making it necessary to rush to the nearest mosque for a little foot-washing outside the door, and then inside for a quick prayer to Allah that the fluid stream will soon stop.
By the way, did you beat the Turk who sold you the bad kebab?
Your fellow “exploder,”

oh dear me: are all Americans this arrogant? apart from that, I couldnt help laughing heartily… at least to the original post, anyways (what is it with the insatiable need to keep bombing someone all the time…?) ad sinking roads: does it not say up top something about changing temperatures following a typically bitchin cold Russian winter..? you know that thermal expansion is one hell of a motion, guys… plus under the surface of a big city, you typically get all sorts of water and god knows what pipe lines and, as i couldnt help noticing, next to this mother of a sinkhole, one bitch of a giant construction excavation site… my fav is the thread on travelling the “mud highway” though.. peace and bacon to all
The last two pictures are quite possibly the best i’ve ever seen.
It looks like Moscow could be in a active state like yellowstone in wyoming USA.Lets hope nothing very bad happens to the city.
By the power vested in me, I hereby command the volcano to AWAKEN!!!
Go volcano go!
Go volcano go!
Go volcano go!
Go volcano go!
Go volcano go!
Jesus Christ that is not a nice thing to say!
I owe wife one large fat apology! She say “Husband I lose new cement truck into giant ground hole in Moscva Bla bla bla!” I not believe her. I believe instead she take cement truck on wodka-fueled fast speed police chase like yous see on western tevelvisor programme because she mean ass drunk. To punish, I make her switch sleeping places with goats for 1 months.
What? Aren’t roads supposed to do that?
Looks like an ordinary sinkhole to me. Pipes break, water washes away the ground, stuff on top collapses.
There are unlikely to be any volcanoes in the middle of the Eurasian continental plate. Hot spots like Hawaii are possible, but then there’d be noticeable volcanic stuff around. Hills don’t qualify.
+1 on sinkholes & leaking pipes. It’s all about that.
There’s no volcanoes around, only regional ruptures between crust blocks, which is quite common for any continental plate region - enough for an earthquake worth 5-6 magnitude every few thousand years, but no eruptions. As for abysal gases - they rise everywere.
As a matter of fact - it’s all for poor water control. Local authorities are just not interested in solving such problems.
Those are sinkholes, not volcanic action. There is not even any evidence at the surface to even suggest that there are volcanoes in Moscow.
Hmm, Edinburgh is also built on seven hills and around an extinct volcano. I wish I could use that fact to explain why the roads in the city are permanently covered in potholes but no, sadly it’s just our Council being utterly useless…
[...] Ancient Volcano in Moscow [...]
God Bless Russia

What I read is Moscow is built on top of a marsh - THAT could explain it!
