Guatemala Sinkhole/Crater – Is It for Real? Well, according to various reports, yes it is real! No, it is not Photoshopped as some might be thinking or claiming, but is an actual sinkhole that appeared after the tropical storm Agatha came and hit Guatemala. The country is no stranger to sinkholes either. In February 2007, a large sinkhole appeared in a poor neighborhood in northeast Guatemala city that killed 3 people. The sinkhole was 100.5 meters deep and was created by fluid from a sewer that dissolved the rock underneath.
Where is the sinkhole located? The crated appeared in Zone 2 of Guatemala City. This “hundimiento” or spontaneous sinkhole is so large that it engulfs a three story building and a house and is larger than a street intersection. There are no reports yet on how deep the sinkhole is. There are also no reports of injuries caused by this sinkhole.
According to scientists, this occurrence happens from time to time during major storms. It could be caused naturally such as in this case or it could be caused by man itself such as the last one back in 2007.

Looks like a bad Photoshop, but according to the article, it's real...

They say it's real.

That sinkhole around the edges, I've seen some bad cut & paste jobs that have that same look.

[pavyracer]

Is that crude oil at the bottom.

[brooks85]

ya i dont waste my time posting photoshopped crap but it does look like it, the video of it is crazy. Some cop walking up to the edge of it. You can tell he is shocked by the look of it.

You might be onto something, considering that is hardcore Mayan ground right there. Also the Pacaya volcano has been going crazy there, it already killed some people.

I don't know why carmelo started another thread about this.

Sinkhole, pretty scary shit.

[Powderguy]

Black holes are worse, but yeah pretty scary

[Ace_of_Spades]

What or who was on top of that hole? Who's going down?

[mrmarket]

I would buy the land from the scared owner on the cheap and charge to see it.

[Slim]

Big vagina.

[Powderguy]

2 threads on this now, must be legit

[jjgold]

How deep is it??

[mrmarket]

Question you ask alot JJ?

[Ace_of_Spades]

How do these things come about, unexplainable i guess? The earth is breaking up.

[Ace_of_Spades]

How deep is it??

Jump in with a torch

[mrmarket]

Someone somewhere is probably worshiping that thing or its creator.

[Ace_of_Spades]

Galactus you bastard.

[Dad]

How deep is it??

60' round and 30 stories deep.

WTF do you do with something like that - from a city planning perspective or homeowner's perspective? If you live next to it, for sure your house is going in sooner or later. I guess you'd just demolish those four blocks, create a park and barricade/cover the existing hole. You sure as shit couldn't fill the thing up with dirt and go on about your business.

That's seriously fukked up.
