In the early days of the 20th-century, the owner of Fly Ranch in Nevada, decided to dig a new well to water his crops. When he reached the reservoir, he was in for an unpleasant surprise – the water was 200°f (93°c), making them too hot to use. In 1964, a group of geothermal researchers dug in the spot but when they finished, they failed to cap the well properly, as seen in the picture below.
