A man calling himself Mel Waters phoned into the late-night radio show hosted by Art Bell on Coast to Coast AM in the late 1990s.

The story, in short:
Mel claimed he owned land in Ellensburg, Washington and on his property he'd discovered a perfectly circular hole.
He said it had no measurable bottom...people supposedly lowered hundreds (even thousands) of feet of line without hitting anything.

Mel's Hole.

Then it got written off as a hoax....to where is became urban legend.

Not the only group certainly as it's well documented but while in college I traveled with others to Ellensburg, WA and with GPS got kinda close to the property...
That is now fenced off as inaccessible government land.

🤷🏻

@Punxi Mel Waters does not exist, or has property in Kittitas County. No one has been able to locate Mel's Hole, but it's good for tourism.

I've been to Ellensburg dozens of times. Nothing much to do there, other than cheep farming, hiking and river rafting.

No Mel.

@Northwest Guess we were directed to a fenced in area Federally posted for nothing perhaps.

I always have on me a lead-lined YETI Sidekick Dry Waterproof Bag, just for this kind of occasion. Oh, and lead-lined gloves so I wouldn't have to worry about the logistics.

If a crowd approaches, I will toss it in a river, and when everyone leave, I can come back and retrieve it.

Watch the '36 Universal studios sci fi film The Invisible Ray.

A scientist notes a fragment from Andromeda that has fallen to Earth in a remote area of Africa.

He tracks down the location and secures a chunk of it. He deems it Radium X.

During his task of gathering the fragment, he becomes poisoned.

I'll stop here and for those who are curious, you can go watch the film.

Fans of the Universal studios monster movies are familiar with it.
It was the third teaming of Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi.

Hot rocks falling from the sky is not something I would not stick around long for enough to find out.
Unless I was hunting wild hot dogs, I'm not sure why I would be walking through the woods with a pair of tongs.

Reminds me of "The Color Out of Space" by the great, great American author H. P. Lovecraft.

H, they still find fragments of the meteor that made this crater.
done seen too many tv shows where the person calls the authorities to tell them what they found......
and then they ask did anyone else see this........ person says nope, then they get shot by the feds.

too many xfiles type tv shows and movies for me. LOL

After they explode the inner fragments are actually very cold.
