At the time, Lauer's estimated salary from NBC was between $20-$25 million, making him the highest-paid anchor at the network. His firing from NBC put Megyn Kelly at the top, but it's unclear whether Kotb â or Guthrie, for that matter â will get a pay raise, especially since the Today show's ratings have soared in the wake of Lauer's ousting.
Steamboat Geyser. Steamboat Geyser, in Yellowstone National Park's Norris Geyser Basin, is the world's tallest currently-active geyser. During major eruptions, water may be thrown more than 300 feet (91.44 m) into the air. Steamboat's major eruptions last from 3 to 40 minutes, and are followed by powerful jets of steam.
Two Yellowstone geysers, Excelsior Geyser in Midway Basin and Sapphire Pool Geyser in Biscuit Basin, have also produced eruptions that exceeded 300 feet. Excelsior was active between 1878 and 1888. Sapphire Pool erupted after the Hebgen Lake earthquake in 1959 and erupted periodically for a few years.
