Umm, that could have been caused by a sewer leak or an old septic tank. Throwing a flare down there may have not been such a good idea.

Yep, sure woulda been funny if it would have been some methane gas in that hole or a gas line rupture.
I came across a hole when hunting one time and it sounded like thunder at the bottom of it, I took my trusty flashlight out and shined down this hole that was probably 45 feet deep and 6 feet across and saw it had water rolling around like it was boiling. Took a deep breath and realized it was a gas main that was ruptured. Called Miss Utility up and they told me over the phone that it was a 12" main feeding the town I lived in and to also call the police(they also said they were calling but wanted me to show them the exact location) so they could get it blocked off cause if not and somebody ignited the gas it could cause half our town to get blown off the map due to how much pressure was being fed through that line and the depth of the hole.
I wondered later what the depth of the hole had to due with it and a buddy later told me that works for a local natural gas company that the natural gas being more concentrated in the hole would actually explode whereas the natural gas on the surface of the ground would have less chance of exploding since it was mixed with more air.
