An individual identifying as an archaeologist responded to the "djinn" legend surrounding the deaths of treasure hunters with a video. In the footage shared on social media, the person aimed to demonstrate the release of methane gas from an excavated area by throwing a lit piece of cloth into the pit, conducting a striking experiment.



THE EXCAVATED AREA TURNED INTO A FIREBALL



Following the throwing of the cloth into the area, the resulting fireball revealed the presence of accumulated methane gas in the region. These images also debunked the long-standing legend that "djinns kill treasure hunters" that has circulated among the public for years.



CARELESS EXCAVATIONS CAN BE FATAL



The video emphasized that underground gases can accumulate in closed and airless environments, becoming explosive, and warned that careless excavations could lead to fatal consequences. Experts also pointed out that similar gas explosions could occur if necessary precautions are not taken during treasure hunting activities, stressing the need to avoid unauthorized excavations.
