Welcome To Hell: 42,000 People Turn Galatasaray Training Into Fire Pit

Don't panic folks, the stadium isn't on fire. This is just Galatasaray training.

A record 42,000 Galatasaray supporters looked over their teams session this evening in a scene reminiscent of the fiery pits of Mount Doom (Only Lord of the Rings fans will understand that reference.)

This clip of Galatasaray's open training session at the Turk Telekom Stadium went viral a few months ago, but this was seriously something else.

Turkish fans didn't disappoint for the entirety, lighting up the sky with their flares while making plenty of noise throughout. The club captioned one of their posts on Twitter, "They call it The Hell. We call it heaven. Heaven of the yellow and red."

JUST LOOK AT THE SCENES:

Now, another clip involving their dedicated fan base has emerged and it might be even better than the open training session - simply because they caused an absolute scene at Galatasaray's U19's game against Trabzonspor this week.

Seriously, you don't see this happen very often at youth level. In fact, you're lucky if there's a couple of hundred people at Premier League academy's.

Just check out the pyro here, wow.

The Istanbul clubs don't get along too well and like to make a noise at the best of times but right now the Super Lig is one of the most competitive leagues in the top tier of European football.

Even the U19 games are getting a huge amount of coverage:

Unbelievable support.
