Another Day, Another Sinkhole Emerges in Florida


But the difference with this one: it’s exploding.


From ABC NEWS:



The 120-foot wide and 30-foot deep sinkhole opened Saturday afternoon in Spring Hill.


"Out of nowhere the earth just went straight up in the air and exploded up in the air," said Margaret Helmick, who lives in the neighborhood.


Police evacuated four homes but later allowed residents to return to three of them. The area was closed off until further notice.



Exploding… think about that.

I first admit this: I did not know there was a Corvette Museum.


Now I do.. I apologize to the car aficionados who will berate me for my lack of in depth knowledge  of the classic midlife crisis car..


The reason is tragic, though, at least if you like cars and the crust of the planet earth.

Out of nowhere, a massive sinkhole hits a small Kansas town

People are flocking to Wallace County Kansas, just to see if the images are true.. could it be, a massive sinkhole suddenly opening up?


The town of Sharon Springs, Kansas, is very remote. The population is under 800, it has one library, and its public school system has under 500 kids *both high school and grade school*.. But it’s now a tourist attraction due to a 200 feet across and 90 feet deep sinkhole that opened in the ground.. According to reports from Sharon Springs, the sinkhole seemed to open overnight.. Suddenly and quickly.. The rapid vanishing act taking place on the once secure land..




According to comments from town Sheriff Larry Townsend, the hole continues to get bigger..


The sinkhole seems to be swallowing an entire pasture. According to reports, no digging, or irrigation, or natural gas fracking has taken place around the area where the earth left..


There are fears tonight that cracks are spreading from the sinkhole and that cracks in the ground may open up to form more areas of disaster..


Absolutely amazing video of the sinkhole here, including images of people being “brave”  enough to hike to the bottom..

Here is a monstrous sinkhole in Latvia, apparently swallowing everything in its path. The video was uploaded to YouTube on April 21.. I’d love to know if there is any update on what happened since this video was released..

i was really hoping this was fake but its not



Amazing sinkhole video from
Chicago.. This is not fake, it’s real. But notice the cop in the background who seems to have virtually no reaction during the video. That part at least made me chuckle. The rest sure didn’t.

We’re on shaky ground..
A person is in the hospital after a sinkhole opened in Chicago in the early AM hours and quickly grew.



Latest reports also indicate there are three cars already swallowed up by it..

I heard someone making jokes today about the sinkhole that swallowed Jeff Bush in his bedroom in Seffner, Florida.. The story is disturbing, but someone making light of a horrid situation like this may be worse..

Sinkhole are a big story around the world. The media typically pays little attention to them, but they happen .. a lot. And increasingly, as some websites have reported, there seems to be an altogether weakening of the earth’s crust below us.

This sinkhole situation in Florida isn’t the typical one.. this time, someone most likely died in the event. And also this time, as opposed to the typical reporting we get, the media is paying attention and giving us more information than usual. Maybe for ratings? Maybe because there is a human tragedy? Maybe because, after all the ignorance to the earth’s changes, people are finally becoming rattled by the shaky ground beneath them..

A story on CNN tonight details a sad interview with the victim’s brother, Jeremy Bush.. He said he was able to hear his brother screaming before he was gone. Four other people, including a 2-year-old child, escape from the home in Florida .. but Jeff Bush could not. He was peacefully in is bedroom when the ground gave out..

Rescuers have not gone into the house yet, according to CNN, because the situation is too dangerous.. As a matter of fact, reporting late tonight indicates that the sinkhole is spreading and the entire house is in dangerous of being swallowed up by it..

We will continue to watch this story as it develops. It’s what we do here.
But also what we do in situations like this, is pray and hope for some type of light to be seen  in the darkness.. to hope for good over bad.. to hope that this man is either alive, or if not, has peacefully gone to the next realm, whatever that realm may be..

The Louisiana Sinkhole

I am struck by the fact that national news has largely ignored the big sinkhole that developed in Louisiana this summer and has continued to grow all the way until the current time.



It began as bubbles in the Bayou down in Louisiana a few houses were rumbling, it has now turned into a sinkhole that expands and expands every day. the size of it is currently seven football fields. There are reports in Louisiana that peoples’ homes are shaking as far away as 15 to 20 miles..



And there is silence on the national news about this issue.



I would actually love to hear from someone down in the Bayou, Louisiana, brother areas that are affected by the sink hole..
