中文注释：（网友翻译，有待改进，请跟帖发表自己看法）
印尼东爪哇岛诗都阿佐县的一个村落里，烈日烘烤下的泥地几乎与屋顶齐高。2006年，很可能因当地天然气钻探而导致地壳深断裂带持续数月迸发出了大量的沸腾泥浆，这些泥浆掩埋了此地。

英文注释：
Drying Mud, Sidoarjo, East Java, Indonesia, 2006
Mud baking in the hot Indonesian sun nearly reached the rooflines in a village in Sidoarjo, East Java. In 2006, a fracture deep within the Earth, likely caused by local natural-gas drilling, triggered a massive release of hot mud that lasted for months and buried the region.
