Doomsday: How BP Gulf disaster may have triggered a 'world-killing' event.

Ominous reports are leaking past the BP Gulf salvage operation news blackout that the disaster unfolding in the Gulf of Mexico may be about to reach biblical proportions.

251 million years ago a mammoth undersea methane bubble caused massive explosions, poisoned the atmosphere and destroyed more than 96 percent of all life on Earth. [1] Experts agree that what is known as the Permian extinction event was the greatest mass extinction event in the history of the world. [2]



55 million years later another methane bubble ruptured causing more mass extinctions during the Late Paleocene Thermal Maximum (LPTM).

The LPTM lasted 100,000 years. [3]

Those subterranean seas of methane virtually reshaped the planet when they explosively blew from deep beneath the waters of what is today called the Gulf of Mexico.

Now, worried scientists are increasingly concerned the same series of catastrophic events that led to worldwide death back then may be happening again-and no known technology can stop it.

The bottom line: BP’s Deepwater Horizon drilling operation may have triggered an irreversible, cascading geological Apocalypse that will culminate with the first mass extinction of life on Earth in many millions of years.

The oil giant drilled down miles into a geologically unstable region and may have set the stage for the eventual premature release of a methane mega-bubble.

Ryskin’s methane extinction theory

Northwestern University's Gregory Ryskin, a bio-chemical engineer, has a theory: The oceans periodically produce massive eruptions of explosive methane gas. He has documented the scientific evidence that such an event was directly responsible for the mass extinctions that occurred 55 million years ago. [4]

Many geologists concur: "The consequences of a methane-driven oceanic eruption for marine and terrestrial life are likely to be catastrophic. Figuratively speaking, the erupting region "boils over," ejecting a large amount of methane and other gases (e.g., CO2, H2S) into the atmosphere, and flooding large areas of land. Whereas pure methane is lighter than air, methane loaded with water droplets is much heavier, and thus spreads over the land, mixing with air in the process (and losing water as rain). The air-methane mixture is explosive at methane concentrations between 5% and 15%; as such mixtures form in different locations near the ground and are ignited by lightning, explosions and conflagrations destroy most of the terrestrial life, and also produce great amounts of smoke and of carbon dioxide..." [5]

The warning signs of an impending planetary catastrophe—of such great magnitude that the human mind has difficulty grasping it-would be the appearance of large fissures or rifts splitting open the ocean floor, a rise in the elevation of the seabed, and the massive venting of methane and other gases into the surrounding water.

Such occurrences can lead to the rupture of the methane bubble containment—it can then permit the methane to breach the subterranean depths and undergo an explosive decompression as it catapults into the Gulf waters. [6]

All three warning signs are documented to be occurring in the Gulf.

Ground zero: The Gulf Coast

The people and property located on the greater expanse of the Gulf Coast are sitting at Ground Zero. They will be the first exposed to poisonous, cancer causing chemical gases. They will be the ones that initially experience the full fury of a methane bubble exploding from the ruptured seabed.

The media has been kept away from the emergency salvage measures being taken to forestall the biggest catastrophe in human history. The federal government has warned them away from the epicenter of operations with the threat of a $40,000 fine for each infraction and the possibility of felony arrests.

Why is the press being kept away? Word is that the disaster is escalating.

Cracks and bulges

Methane is now streaming through the porous, rocky seabed at an accelerated rate and gushing from the borehole of the first relief well. The EPA is on record that Rig #1 is releasing methane, benzene, hydrogen sulfide and other toxic gases. Workers there now wear advanced protection including state-of-the-art, military-issued gas masks.

Reports, filtering through from oceanologists and salvage workers in the region, state that the upper level strata of the ocean floor is succumbing to greater and greater pressure. That pressure is causing a huge expanse of the seabed-estimated by some as spreading over thousands of square miles surrounding the BP wellhead-to bulge. Some claim the seabed in the region has risen an astounding 30 feet.

The fractured BP wellhead, site of the former Deepwater Horizon, has become the epicenter of frenetic attempts to quell the monstrous flow of methane.

The subterranean methane is pressurized at 100,000 pounds psi. According to Matt Simmons, an oil industry expert, the methane pressure at the wellhead has now skyrocketed to a terrifying 40,000 pounds psi.

Another well-respected expert, Dr. John Kessler of Texas A&M University has calculated that the ruptured well is spewing 60 percent oil and 40 percent methane. The normal methane amount that escapes from a compromised well is about 5 percent.

More evidence? A huge gash on the ocean floor—like a ragged wound hundreds of feet long—has been reported by the NOAA research ship, Thomas Jefferson. Before the curtain of the government enforced news blackout again descended abruptly, scientists aboard the ship voiced their concerns that the widening rift may go down miles into the earth.

That gash too is hemorrhaging oil and methane. It’s 10 miles away from the BP epicenter. Other, new fissures, have been spotted as far as 30 miles distant.

Measurements of the multiple oil plumes now appearing miles from the wellhead indicate that as much as a total of 124,000 barrels of oil are erupting into the Gulf waters daily-that’s about 5,208,000 gallons of oil per day.

Most disturbing of all: Methane levels in the water are now calculated as being almost one million times higher than normal. [7]

Mass death on the water

If the methane bubble—a bubble that could be as big as 20 miles wide—erupts with titanic force from the seabed into the Gulf, every ship, drilling rig and structure within the region of the bubble will immediately sink. All the workers, engineers, Coast Guard personnel and marine biologists participating in the salvage operation will die instantly.

Next, the ocean bottom will collapse, instantaneously displacing up to a trillion cubic feet of water or more and creating a towering supersonic tsunami annihilating everything along the coast and well inland. Like a thermonuclear blast, a high pressure atmospheric wave could precede the tidal wave flattening everything in its path before the water arrives.

When the roaring tsunami does arrive it will scrub away all that is left.

A chemical cocktail of poisons

Some environmentalist experts are calling what’s pouring into the land, sea and air from the seabed breach ’a chemical cocktail of poisons.’

Areas of dead zones devoid of oxygen are driving species of fish into foreign waters, killing plankton and other tiny sea life that are the foundation for the entire food chain, and polluting the air with cancer-causing chemicals and poisonous rainfalls.

A report from one observer in South Carolina documents oily residue left behind after a recent thunderstorm. And before the news blackout fully descended the EPA released data that benzene levels in New Orleans had rocketed to 3,000 parts per billion.

Benzene is extremely toxic and even short term exposure can cause agonizing death from cancerous lesions years later.

The people of Louisiana have been exposed for more than two months—and the benzene levels may be much higher now. The EPA measurement was taken in early May. [8]

Doomsday

While some say it can’t happen because the bulk of the methane is frozen into crystalline form, others point out that the underground methane sea is gradually melting from the nearby surging oil that’s estimated to be as hot as 500 degrees Fahrenheit.

Most experts in the know, however, agree that if the world-changing event does occur it will happen suddenly and within the next 6 months.

So, if events go against Mankind and the bubble bursts in the coming months, Gregory Ryskin may become one of the most famous people in the world. Of course, he won't have long to enjoy his new found fame because very shortly after the methane eruption civilization will collapse.

Perhaps if humanity is very, very lucky, some may find a way to avoid the mass extinction that follows and carry on the human race.

Perhaps.

The TV said it will be capped in less then two weeks and the black guy in the commercial says he will stay as long as it takes to make it right.

Actually though, a world killing even is just what the doctor should order for this corrupt putred mess of a state the world is in.

and if I was in the gulf area I would be preparing/making plans to leave that area.

Im a Prepper...I think it's a good Idea to be as prepared for anything as best you can

It's just that my gut is telling me there is Not going to be a Massive methane tsunami.
And, I know this Terrible oil disaster is not the end of the world

No, they haven't started the nuclear war in the Persian Gulf yet!

This Gulf thing can easily snowball into massive destruction of the ecosystem of the Atlantic. Should I say "can" or "will"?

[Ponce]

Up till now......have I said anything that has not become true?, the problem is that I am not a "fear monger" but rather that you fear what I say.

To see what will be you have to have seen what has been and what is and then putting it all together... after my many "adventures" I am only alive today because I could see and plan ahead from what was going on.

Have you done anything to protect your home? have you gone outside, about fifty feet, away from your home and looked at avenues of approach and done something about it?...... living alone I feel that eventually someone could get to me........but......at a heavy price and once I am dead and they are in they will not get out in one piece............to me all this "preparation" is only a hobby that really has nothing to do with reality..........and that makes me of a clear mind.

[old steel]

Like Book suggests i'm all up for going camping.

Life is for the living etc.

The gulf will take care of itself one way or the other.

Probably the other but i'll be camping and hiking in the Rocky mountains.

No oil spill here.

Gotta love that spin eh.

Spill ...

Phoenix; I suppose that could happen......

The oil is a mess and could no doubt kill the gulf

But like Book seems to be trying to point out, There isn't much we(here on this forum) can do about the oil except get out of its way.

Worrying and dwelling on the the "Impending Doom" is Not the way to go IMO.

The lord says "So do not fear, for I am with you" (Isaiah 41:10)

and

Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? (luke 12:25)


May the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way.

I agree with you, no fear. But as did Noah, we must listen, and LISTEN WELL, to the "warning signs" that are upon us all. We can't be certain until after already happened, but this sure looks like something beyond "run of the mill" disaster.

[Book]

...the problem is that I am not a "fear monger" but rather that you fear what I say.



I am obviously mocking and ridiculing your numerous silly paranoid "MANY WILL DIE" threads about impending doom. Nobody "fears" what you say...lol.

:D

[Ponce]

"Silly paranoid"..........time will tell amigo, time will tell...........most people will only fear something when it happen but by then it will be to late to take proper action......like the take over of America by the Zionists, you had it and yet you don't know it.........they don't have to be "smart" only that you are stupid.

[Defender]

Reports, filtering through from oceanologists and salvage workers in the region, state that the upper level strata of the ocean floor is succumbing to greater and greater pressure. That pressure is causing a huge expanse of the seabed-estimated by some as spreading over thousands of square miles surrounding the BP wellhead-to bulge. Some claim the seabed in the region has risen an astounding 30 feet.

And please tell, how does a small hole cause thousand square mile bulges and miles long/deep rifts? This would indicate the underground pressure is increasing drastically.

Drilling a hole would be more like lancing a boil. I could potentially see it blowing out at the wellhead area and expanding outward from there.

But this article is talking about bigger things. Things that make man's Macondo well insignificant. Things that would have happened anyway.

[Ponce]

Take a simple balloon, you can play with a balloon till such a time that it gets a hole and then the hole will expand and tear up the balloon.........well........there are now many holes on Earth that have gone where they should had not gone...........I could be wrong but I don't think so.

Remember that In Texas you are getting a lot of sink holes and most of the time they are around the area where they have closed down an oil pump for lack of oil.

The Earth, like you and me, can only take so much crap.

[Fudup]

We already did this stuff in 1979.

This is getting to be more of a media event now, driven by certain political actors with power to gain (and money, of course). Ixtoc (sp?) was supposed to destroy the gulf 30 years ago and it spewed for 9 months until the relief wells were dug. Oil everyfuggingwhere with all sorts of munged up beaches and the like. It will get capped in a couple days or whenever the relief wells are done and we won't hear a darn thing in the media about it while the next crisis du Jour is concocted. The real tragedy IMO is the wildlife destroyed. Billions will be made by the connected few and you can bet that taxpayer dollars will somehow be involved in going in someone's pockets.


Personally, I worry more about a pole flip (earths magnetic field) or that the sun may not return to full sunspot activity for years to come, perhaps spurring a new ice age. These are things we truly have no control over, and don't have a clue what will really happen when they occur.

[johnlvs2run]

Here we go, BP has stopped work on the cap, and stopped drilling relief wells, that would try to stop the spill with mud and cement from below. There is nothing they are doing now to try and stop the outflow of methane and oil.

I bet one of the relief wells tapped oil, thus the gusher is unleashed and unstoppable, rendering the top cap pointless and the relief wells pointless.

Makes one wonder....what the hell??

[oldmansmith]

I'm shocked, I thought they said last Friday that it "might" be contained by Monday?

Setback: BP cap in limbo over gov't questions

NEW ORLEANS – BP's work on capping the Gulf of Mexico gusher was frozen Wednesday after the federal government raised concerns the operation could put damaging pressure on the busted well that could make the leak worse.
An administration official, who asked not to be identified because of the sensitivity of the talks with BP, said the government was acting out of "abundance of caution" and didn't want potentially dangerous pressure tests on a tighter containment cap that has been placed over the well to go ahead until BP answers questions about possible risks.
At the same time, BP on its own halted the drilling of two relief wells that are designed to be a more permanent solution to plug the well.
The delays were a stunning setback after the oil giant finally seemed to be on track following nearly three months of failed attempts to stop the spill, which has sullied beaches from Florida to Texas and decimated the multibillion dollar fishing industry.

"and many will die"............what else can I say?

Almost forgot........have a nice day ;D

[gunDriller]

i wonder how it will affect seed stocks.

specifically, food plants' ability to make new viable seeds.

i think the maps in 20 years will show an inexorable progression of the "toxic zone", where plants cannot be grown. (anybody want some orange juice from the 2012 Florida crop ?)

the toxic zone will start in the Gulf areas of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and the Florida panhandle and Eastern Florida.

over time it will spread across the Gulf (Haiti, Cuba, Jamaica, Dominican Republic), and in countries to our south (Venezuela, Mexico, and a bunch others that border to the Gulf).

i expect the rain will carry the toxins far enough inland that people will be surprised.


BUT - we are not the only people who understand this. there are plenty of people in the US government that understand the full ramifications of what is going on.

they are not all brainless, order-following dummies. some of them are immoral, intelligent, & order-following.

but they have access to the same news sources that we do. and some of them get paid to read it, and to summarize it for consumers such as, the President.

of course those summaries don't make it on the news very often.


the oil gets diluted by the seawater ... sort of. the news gets diluted by the tabloid stuff, Mel Gibson & Lindsey Lohan this last week.

From what I've known the sea bed has been compromised since the blowout. So all further work is pretty much an effort in futility at this point.

Time to go hide with The Oak Ridge Boys in their underground bunkers.

I find the truth typically lies somewhere in between, so in this case they'll only lose the northern hemisphere.

Lots of wild story's at that site

Yes, and much more credible than the corporate media.

I live far from the gulf, but have noticed a varying solvent content in the air since the gulf explosion.
At times the density has been strong enough to preclude mild exercise, and has made me susceptible to heat at mild temperatures.
A couple of times I have noticed an unaccountable oil smell at night, though not as bad as the solvent.

I have hesitated to mention this before as there are plenty of sceptics around.
However I am particularly sensitive, by intention, of anything that would affect me especially during exercise.

My feeling has been that the solvent content is from the chemicals used in the gulf.
Certainly since people are being affected 500 miles from the source, 1/4 of that could reach to 4 times the distance.
I think that no one is going to be unaffected by what is happening in the gulf.

[old steel]

They already tried and failed with a top kill why would they think it would work now?

Once they run out of mud or cement to pump and it's still spewing then they have lost.

Man, There is a lot coming out of there.
And it seems to be Pulsing, as apposed to the steady flow there was before.

I wonder what is causing that?

[DMac]

Stacker, it could be related to the testing of the well currently ongoing.

Interesting read today on TOD
http://www.theoildrum.com/node/6731

[old steel]

They aren't telling us a lot of the details about this blow out. I believe the so called estimates for what is escaping the rouge well are all low balls same with the pressure you can't get a figure anywhere unless it is a low ball. There is no way they want to panic the herd into stampede mode.

Now a BP Exec says the delay in a new cap is due to pressures that could blow the well totally.

Won't do any good to cap it if that happens or worse the oil/gas mixture is just rerouted through vents in the ocean floor.

Then it's game over.

[johnlvs2run]

Three major dangers summary

1) poison gases: including hydrogen sulfide and voc's (benzene);
dosages are already well above lethal amounts at water level.

2) climate changes: corexit dispersent, still being used, oil layer on top of water;
decreased evaporation, increased heat, increased superstorms that carry corexit and oil farther inland,
decreased water to clouds and rainful for crops, reduced warm water currents to europe, ice age in europe.

3) volcanic tsunami: sea water getting below oil into magma, steam, explosion, raising then dropping
of sea floor creating a tsunami, possibly 80 to 200 feet high, 600 mph, 100 miles inland, could cover florida;
explosion of methyl hydrates could also cause tsunamis, destroy other oil rigs, kill millions of people.

I think they were sticking with the Mid August story until a few days ago.
I don't know what they are claiming now that they quit drilling

Good. I was doubting that the world would end on 2012, but now I can rest assured.

Hundreds of experts are studying the BP spill's impact on the Gulf, ... It can cause heart problems that can kill fish years after a spill. ...

mehbeh (http://www.floridaoilspilllaw.com/category/human-health)...

But alas it's a "slow-kill" bio/chem-warfare op (http://gold-silver.us/forum/conspiracy-theories/bp-gulf-oil-disaster-conspiratorial-view-of-history-perspective/msg107602/#msg107602) being waged against the 10s of millions of innocents proximate to the Gulf; indeed they're being methodically deceived to believe that they're not even under deliberate attack with their premature demise being the desired result. In the end every victim will have their own unique story.
