They blew so hard that the surface of the<br \/>\n        planet was inflated, and the Andes were created.<\/p>\n<p>        In the interstices of the mountain ranges, snakes of smoke appeared which<br \/>\n        became a race of uncommonly tall red men upon reaching the surface.<\/p>\n<p>        These men wore no clothes.
