Fly Geyser, also known as Fly Ranch Geyser is a man-made small geothermal geyser located in Washoe County, Nevada. Fly Geyser is approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) high, by 12 feet (3.7 m) wide, counting the mound on which it sits.

The source of the Fly Geyser field's heat is attributed to a very deep pool of hot rock where tectonic rifting and faulting are common. Fly Geyser was accidentally created during well drilling in 1964 while exploring for sources of geothermal energy.

They actually increased the distance the crowd has to be from the fire because of that. They even have a dedicated team of rangers now that patrol around the man to prevent anybody running into the man in the future.

I was at a ranger meeting a couple weeks ago so I got to learn all about how security works at the event.

Jumping into the fire is RADICAL SELF EXPRESSION. He gave his life to art.

QuoteI honestly almost killed myself. If it wasn't for rangers, a stranger, and firefighters getting me off of the temple when I was trying to jump, I wouldn't be alive right now. I'm so thankful for them. I wish I knew who they were. I had taken acid and drank almost a whole bottle of whiskey when someone who I thought I was friends with told me otherwise. My fucked up mind could only think of jumping off the tallest thing I could find. This was the same night that the man ran into the burning man.
