Giant Sinkhole in Guatemala

Has anyone tried bungee jumping in it yet? Maybe it goes all the way to the center of the earth o.0

When holes are at this magnitude, don't they have the ability to suck things in that get too close?

 

I remember reading something about a quarry in Siberia called the Mir Mine. When helicopters fly over it, they can easily get pulled in by the downdraft. Sounds very scary.

Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.

Idk how it would work.Maybe its like cold air sinking and hot air rising but like maginified because it just keeps dropping.

When I saw it I thought it was just done on photoshop. Pretty amazing mind.

Same here. Looks almost too perfectly round to be natural. Cool as hell though.

 

I've heard about the Mir Mine that someone mentioned. Pretty sure they put restrictions on aircraft passing over it or something like that. Dunno how it works exactly but it's a lot bigger than the sink hole in Guatemala.

It seems like maybe it's an ancient well or something. A giant, ancient well.

That's insane. It'd be interesting to know what caused it.

I believe that rain from the tropical storm system (Agatha) caused the ground to collapse.

Why can't the Big Bang be done by the hand of God?

It could have, but it is next to impossible because it also could have been caused by the flying spaghetti monster, or one of the other infinite number of deity possibilities.

I saw the picture this morning in the newspaper and I thought it was fake at first, it's just so bizarre. I wonder what they'll do with the hole and whether it might get any bigger.

 

 

IT'S AN ALASKAN BULL WORM!

 

Don't be silly it has to be a graboid.

He who learns must suffer, and, even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart,

and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.

Clearly the world is hungry and wishes to snack on a few cities.

Damn, that hole makes me want to do a vagina joke. But I shall not. Looks pretty damn awesome though.

So weird how it's (close to) a perfect circle.. Not funny if you live (lived?) there. Looks awesome though.

I just read the thing about experts in the title. How does one become an expert on giant sinkholes....

It's probably not Sinkhole experts, but most likely Geographical experts etc.

It looks surreal... Maybe there's aliens involved like in War of the Worlds :ohnoes:

 

And maybe the overweight kookaburras are alien spies...

 

 

 

Still, it's scarily circular and never-ending looking. I thought it was photoshopped at first.
