Event Update For 2018-08-19

http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html

The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.

A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

2018-08-19 - Unquenchable underground fire burning and spewing sulfurous smell, people sickening and dying, in Anambra State (Nigeria):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFOorbo79Po

Quote: "The lignite, which sends out gas with irritating sulphurous odour, has also led to the admission of scores of residents in different hospitals in the area."

Quote: "“Last night [Friday], after a little rain, we were unable to sleep. The most astonishing thing is that we have been recording sudden deaths in recent time. 'Within a space of two months, we have lost seven persons and we do not known the cause of their death. But if you put two and two together, you find out that it is not natural death. We never recorded that number of deaths in the past in this community,' he lamented."

Quote: "Surroundings of the chemical site are caving in and the emission becomes stronger. We have tried to put out the fire burning underground to no avail and we decided to leave the rains to deal with it. 'But despite the heavy rains so far experienced this year, the fire has been as if the rains are fueling it.'"

Note: Lignite is like really low-grade coal made from compressed peat. There's no sulfur in it, so what's that sulfur smell they're smelling? Maybe there's been some hydrogen sulfide falling in the rain, or there's some in the ground there, or both. That would cause the sulfur odor AND help fuel the fire AND cause people to sicken and die…

http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/database/index.php?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=BH-20180819-64319-IND

Quote: "Mysterious animal fear loomed large again in the state last night after at least 10 sheep were found dead in Tamanad village under Jagannath Prasad block in Ganjam district. The sheep carcasses were found in one local, Neera Nayak's cattle shed in the village. Neera who has reared cattle in large scale went on an inspection of his shed this morning and found the dead sheep with deep nail indentations on their neck parts pointing at predator attack. Pug marks very similar to that of the mysterious animal were also seen by the side of the carcasses. Locals called up forest officials and sought their help to tackle the situation following the incident. Notably, people were left in a state of panic in Ganjam district in August last year also, after seven domestic animals, including four lambs and three sheep fall prey to mysterious animal in Kunchudu village under Buguda block. Earlier in July in the same year, separate hunting by predators in Badapathara and Kupati village left a number of sheep dead."
