lot's of opportunities for humor here, but I will refrain in due respect.

 

Very sad. Those poor little girls. Just starting life. It tears you up if you really stop and think about it.

/didn't watch it yet... I hear it's good.

 

OMG this is so tragically sad !

 

this is insane... thats not a sort of thing anyone really thinks about. a family should never have to worry about $*** like this when they're in their own home watching hockey together

thoughts are with the family and friends. i cant imagine... the parents were younger than mine and those girls were just kids

 

OK - this is WHACKED OUT MAN!!!




Tropical Storm Agatha blows a hole in Guatemala City

Tropical Storm Agatha swept across Central America yesterday, bringing torrential rain that killed more than 100 people and opened a 60m-deep sinkhole in Guatemala City which reportedly swallowed up a three-storey building.
The first named storm of the 2010 Pacific season dumped more than a metre of rain in parts of Guatemala, also hitting El Salvador and Honduras. At least 113 people were reported killed, with around 50 missing in Guatemala alone as rescue workers searched through the rubble.
The 30m-diameter sinkhole opened up in a northern district of Guatemala City, with residents blaming the rains and substandard drainage systems. Local reports said one man was killed when the building was swallowed. In 2007, three people died when a similar sinkhole appeared in the same area.
Guatemala was the worst affected country, with a confirmed death toll of 92, although that is likely to rise when rescuers reach remote villages. Almost 100,000 people have been evacuated from their homes. Nine people were confirmed killed in El Salvador and 12 in Honduras.
"I've got no one to help me. I watched the water take everything," Carlota Ramos told Reuters outside her mud-swamped brick house in Amatitlan, a town near the Guatemalan capital.

That hole looks man made on a phone ? Like a huge silo ? Or maybe due to the earths lack of oh OIL.

 

Guatemala and Mexico's Yucatan peninsula have underground water systems some of which include caverns formed as the calcified ground is dissolved by rains. This sinkhole, and others like it in Guatemala are eerily symmetrical in shape. Combine that with the inky blackness of the underground cavern and the hole thing looks like a scene from Journey to the Center of the Earth.

 

There NEEDS to be a photoshop of that pic done with Leonidas kicking the dude down the hole and shouting "This IS GUATEMALA!!!"

Ok, people died I'm going to hell. But tell me that wouldn't be funny!
