Event Update For 2017-09-18

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.

2017-09-18 - Two experienced divers, 34 and 39, go missing, both found dead in Panjiakou Reservoir (China):
http://www.china.org.cn/china/2017-09/19/content_41610511.htm

Quote: "The bodies of two divers who had been exploring the underwater environment in a reservoir in Tangshan, Hebei province, were recovered on Monday, 12 days after going missing. The divers worked for Global Underwater Explorers, a nonprofit NGO that does research and trains high-quality divers."

Quote: "Both had Level 2 certificates as technical divers, which means they were able to perform dives as deep as 75 meters. Only seven five people in China have that level of certification."

http://www.denverpost.com/2017/09/18/deaths-southwest-denver-carbon-monoxide/

Quote: "The couple's daughter tells FOX31's Ashley Michels that Roger Cisneros arrived home on Sunday and may have accidentally left the car running in the garage and filling the home with carbon monoxide."

Note: Or maybe the car started itself like various other vehicles have, and they were asleep and never noticed and never woke up again. Besides parked cars bursting into flame in the middle of the night and burning your home down, cars starting themselves and gassing you to death is another danger nowadays, though that doesn't appear to be as common as cars spontaneously combusting. Still, if you're not gung-ho about being dead, why risk it?
