Sinkholes around the World

Here is a massive sinkhole from 2 years ago in Guatamala.

And this is a more recent event:

Since August 2012, a giant sinkhole belching oil and gas has been growing in Assumption Parish, Louisiana. Over 350 people have since been ordered to leave their homes. On August 21 2013, a further collapse at the edge of the hole caused a clump of trees to vanish in seconds.

A sinkhole on Chicago's Southeast Side swallowed three cars early Thursday morning and sent one person to the hospital.

A sinkhole swallowed three cars on Chicago's Southeast Side, WGN-TV reported early Thursday morning.

One person was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in serious-to-critical condition, the Chicago Fire Department told the news station.

According to a report by the Chicago Tribune, the fire department responded around 5:30 a.m., and two cars were already inside the hole. A third one reportedly slid into it after crews arrived.

Do these things happen all the time and the internet lets us see them or are things getting bad? You decide.

  1. This is the result of humans taking continuously from the earth. Oil,Water, Gas and minerals are where they are for a reason. What happens when u remove a billion or barrels of oil from between two layers of rock and earth?-the above is what happens. Its not rocket science. Just stupid human animals that deserve extinction on a moral basis.

  8. And We caused the earth to swallow him and his home. And there was for him no company to aid him other than Allah , nor was he of those who [could] defend themselves.

    [Quran 28:81]

  9. I live in FL, I would argue that this is what we get when we remove trees, and suck all the water out of the ground. We won't learn our lesson until a sink hole appears under Capitol Hill.

  10. Since we are all humans the only way to end(?) this, is stop producing more humans.
