Oil from leak on fire?? Possible?

I just looked at it again. Those are the weirdest looking flames I've ever seen!!!

Oh and the apple pie I made is cooling.

It looks like there is some big yellow object in there.. maybe that is what is making it look like fire in the other feed?

I know I just saw that. WHat is that big yellow object? This is just crazy. Mark my words. This "spill" will still be gushing out like that 2 months from now if there hasn't been a big explosion by then.

it really can't be fire at that depth. Possibly a light source?

Looks like red hot flames on the live feed.

Interesting, but should be impossible.

Unless they are injecting oxygen and igniting it somehow, is that possible?

Maybe some kind of new chemical dispersant being injected into the flow?

Has there been a volcanic breach into the oil deposit below?

No matter what it is, or isn't, it is an interesting development.

I think it might be the dispersant being injected into the leak. The lighting is making it appear an orange color. It seems to be coming from the direction of the small pipe that releases the dispersant.

Don't forget, the junk pouring out of the Earth down there is very dense, almost a solid, actually, and it contains lots of asphalt — it's a weird-ass concoction, and one of its chemical components does appear to be bright orange... Look at the stuff that's going to the surface:

Now, imagine this orange crap coming out under intense pressure, being sprayed out of the wellhead, and illuminated by 2000 watt deep-water floodlights... Could conceivably look like orange flames or even volcanic magma.

Yes.. I believe it is an illusion from that yellow object and light.. now the questions are.. what is that yellow thing and how come the leak looks so much worse?

How can they stop the fire? That must be a scary site for BP and all the animals in the ocean.

Some of those ideas are possible. Particularly the chemical dispersant, but the volcanic breach, I don't think is possible. Magma would melt through that and clog up the well in no time.

Easy way to tell...

Turn the lights off.

If it glows then, we have something here.

Someone tell them to turn off the lights.

Thankfully for the animals around there their already dead. If not there going to die anyway, but this seriously can't be a fire unless they are feeding oxygen to it, which doesn't make much sense. If they wanted to blow it up, they'd have to use a explosive like semtex, or C4

Scuba see's bubbles, maybe oxygen, maybe methane, he also see's fire.
If one does not see fire, he hears ignorance.

Well how is the fire getting oxygen? Seeing isn't believing. Scientific laws still need to be discussed in this forum.

For some reason the main BP feed wont work on my desktop, but I can get this feed with 12 different views of the underwater area.

realitycheck.no-ip.info...

It's interesting in that in many views it does look like it's burning.

There are threads on there talking about the methane, and people are debunking it saying the methane cannot burn underwater.. is this proof they are wrong?
