"The air zone within this mine is closed for helicopters - a few accidents occurred when they were "sucked in" by downward air flow... "

That's intense.

Jesu Christo that's insane. I thought the Santa Rita open pit copper mine was big. Russians like to do things on a large scale.

I have changed my personal exploring ethics code. From now on it will be: "Take only aimed shots, leave only hobo corpses." Copper scrappers, meth heads and homeless beware. The Jonsered cometh among you, bringing fear and dread.

Somehow the depth doesn't seem right. In upstate NY the Benson mine used to be the deepest open pit in the world if I'm not mistaken (1970's) and I 'd swear it was deeper, but it also wasn't dug symmetrically either, now it's a massive lake.


I got your tour winner right here pussies, at least he'd crash out trying.

the Mine is a Diamond mine if I remember right, and I think it is still active to this day (and getting bigger).

yeah, Russians love to do things on a huge scale, even back in ww2, they couldn't hit their targets so they just made the nukes much bigger, they set off the largest man made explosion to date, i think the nuke was called the zore? something like that. crazy russians haha

Close.... It was "Tsar Bomba" which was originally 100MT, though the one they tested was "only" 58 mt.
