Yes, you've seen it. You have to have seen it. If you haven't...above it what it looks like.
I will admit when I first saw it, I was skeptical about it. That can't be real?
Multiple shots from multiple sources dragged me out of my cynical shell.
Now, it isn't even a sinkhole?
"Geologist Sam Bonis said a sinkhole is defined as an area where bedrock has been eaten away by groundwater and the 100-foot deep, 66-foot wide hole that opened up during the weekend in the capital does not qualify, Discovery News reported.
He said the hole is instead a "piping feature" resulting from the pumice fill, ash flows from ancient volcanic eruptions, beneath the city. Bonis said the ash is 600 feet thick in some places." (Source)
No, I am sorry...a piping feature is something that smoking jackets have...this...
IS A BIG F***ING HOLE!
Whatever it is, it looks like the gateway to Hell, and I, for one, am terrified.
