After tropical storm Agatha made its way across the country, a massive sinkhole, 60 ft across and 300 feet deep has developed. It has swallowed up a 3 story building..

Amazingly, the hole is 30 stories deep!

You could drop the Statue of Liberty inside.

 

I guess we better start being prepared and strapping on our rock-climbing gear while we're out to the corner store for milk.

 

Mother Nature constantly amazes.

Can you imagine what that does to real estate values in that neighbourhood! BTW does anyone know how long it took to develop and did anyone lose their lives?

Wow... makes you think were all that water and dirt went? Where there is one sink whole another just might occur as well.
