Castle Rock, on which Edinburgh Castle is built, is the eroded remnant of the basalt plug of an unnamed, extinct volcano. Arthur's Seat, about a mile away, is the main peak of a group of volcanic hills of the same age and composition as Castle Rock. Features on Arthur's Seat suggest that there were multiple volcanic vents in the area 350 million years ago. Subsequent glacial erosion has left the isolated features seen today.

No the Volcano in the Scottish Capital has been extinct for many years even before man. The last eruption was between 350 and 400 million years ago. The vents inside are blocked and will not erupt again the future. If the Volcano was to erupt the vents would have to open up by earthquakes and new magma would take place under the volcano, but this won't happen as it is to cold, solidified and completey blocked. Yes there is a Volcano in Scotland not many people believe this, its in the heart of Edinburgh and its called Arthur's Seat, the ancient volcano of Scotland.

Robert Burns spent a total of about 18 months in Edinburgh from 1786 to 1788.

The mystery on Flannan isle is the disappearance of 3 light house maintenance men who vanished during a 2 week "tour of duty" on the isolated island during December of the year 1900. There was a system in place where, if in case of a emergency, a flag could be put up in the lighthouse, which could be seen from a fixed telescope on the mainland. But there was a terrible fog which lasted , i believe, almost the whole 2 weeks, preventing potential help from coming, if they needed it.

One night a passing boat reported that the light was out. It had seen it on the night before, and with no reason for it to be out, it was curious.

Hearing it was out Robert Muirhead, the lighthouses Superintendent, quickly charted a boat to the island to check on his men. Fighting furious winds and wild seas, he finally reached the island, and the storm was said to have stopped once he arrived. He and a small rescue crew entered the lighthouse to see if the maintnence men were OK.

They were nowhere to be found. Upon inspection of the lighthouse, there were some strange things. First of all, the clock inside the lighthouse was completely stopped. there was no fire or even evidence of a fire in the fireplace. And maybe strangest, there was a full meal cooked and prepared and set on the table, but not touched at all. They then searched the entire island with no success. The 3 men seemed to have just vanished into thin air.

SPOILER ALERT!! ANSWER TO THE MYSTERY.

-if u want it to stay a mystery i would suggest stop reading, if not read on!!

In the days after the incident, Muirhead did a full investigation on the island and found that the storm had cause substantial damage to the jetty and railings and that the moor ropes and crane handles had been washed away and the ropes had become entangled.

Their conclusion! the men had gone out into the storm to try and fix the problem before it became a bigger problem. They had gone quite close to the islands high cliffs. It was likely that while working, 1 of two things could have happened. 1- The strong wind had blown them off the rocks and into the sea. or 2- a high wave swept them out.

After finding out that the wind was blowing UPHILL that night, it was concluded that a freak wave swept them off the rocks and out to sea, never to be seen again.

Some pages on the internet suggest that aliens, the supernatural, or even sea monsters got the men. Truth is, the sea claimed them.

***By the way to add a little realism to it, go to google maps, type in Flannan Isle, and zoom in to inspect the island. its pretty crazy.

Yes. Capital of Scotland. Simple geography :)
