Sinkholes: Our Most Memorable Stories

There’s something about the earth opening up in sinkholes that terrifies and captivates. In 2015, a tour bus in Brazil was swallowed by a massive sinkhole, and dragged away by rushing waters. In July of 2017, the Ramirez family of Florida had just moments to evacuate, before a sinkhole devoured part of their house. And in 2018, rescuers saved a senior husky from a small sinkhole in its family’s Pennsylvania backyard. #InsideEdition
