    It is called birth canal because if they were to go any further they could possibly hit a lava pipe and the gases from the lava pipe could suffocate them.

Since watching this channel I have really come to appreciate and see why crystals looks so much better in the matrix. Because it's 100% natural nothing artificially done to them. It's beautiful because it is natural.
