>The greatest mass extiction event in the planet's history happened because on millions of years of non-stop lave flow in Siberia
The weirdest part is that the Permian-Triassic extiction wasn't cause by volcanoes or something like that, the mantle under Siberia pushed up and melted the crust for several hundreds of kilometers, and that gigantic lava pit lasted for millions of years, spewing toxic gas and changing the climate on the whole planet..
How do russians not shit themselves after every earthquake and volcanic eruption? Americans are always talking about the Yellowstone destroying the planet, but Russia is the one with actual history of it, and Siberia still carries the scars.
