Absolutely terrifying.
what's hilarious? Seems he is just remember his brother fondly.
...Woah... You could be alive down there and nobody would be able to do anything? That's even worse than I imagined these things to be.Sinkholes aren't a neat open hole like a well or something. It's a bunch of dirt closing in on itself. You get swallowed by one, you're essentially buried alive.
What's the purpose of spraying water into there?

Down where? It's happening because a pocket of empty space collapsed. Once it collapses, it's just a mass of dirt....Woah... You could be alive down there and nobody would be able to do anything? That's even worse than I imagined these things to be.
Looooved this movie as a kid. Forgot the name of it for the longest time though.
Florida man never disappoints.
CNN interviewed the guy's brother this morning, and it was equal parts heart wrenching and hilarious.
"I could hear him hollering for help," "My old lady turned on the light," "He was my brother, man!" The guy was really broken up, and I felt so bad, but he was also the most stereotypical Florida good old boy that I couldn't stop grinning.
That's what I mean yeah. You could theoretically still be alive for some amount of time stuck there. Horrible.Down where? It's happening because a pocket of empty space collapsed. Once it collapses, it's just a mass of dirt.
I guess best case scenario, there's a small opening draining everything into a larger cavern. But even then, it's working like an hourglass. There's a big mass of shifting dirt on top you'd have to slowly pass through before you got 'drained', and even if you somehow survived that, you'd just be tossed into another chamber that's filling with dirt. And has no light and very little air.
Also the reason why so many gulf cities are at risk from even the milder hurricanes now.florida did this to itself... its all caused by the crazy amount of ground water pumping they do in order to get fresh water.
No kidding.Jesus Christ, people, Southerners are still fucking human.
i live in florida and now im paranoid. thank the universe i live near the beach. this can happen by the beach.right...?
Dude might be dead, y'all. just saying
Jesus Christ, people, Southerners are still fucking human.
The amount of disrespect in this thread to this man is horrifying.
That looks more like a stinkhole.
Fuck. Man. Fuck.
I've read that Iceland has a shitload of these. It's so bad in some parts that if you're hiking through open land they warn you to never set foot off the established trail or you'll likely never be seen or heard from again.

How deep are these sinkholes usually? Like, is there a chance he could be alive, or are these things extremely deep?
Anywhere from a few feet to a few thousand feet (~2,000 ft).
If it's as deep as they say, chances of his survival are slim. Especially if they can't get to him.
If he's buried alive (fairly possible), then that's it.

What the fuck am I reading? It's the weekend guys, no need to be dicks.There are 7 billion people.
We can afford to lose a few not to mention he wasn't some great mind that was going to cause world peace.
Making nice posts instead of jokes won't bring him back.
