There is no new in this news.
But there is $ in that ~~new~~$
The clickbait is strong with this one
So why should I stay away? Is it because a couple of divers died? Or maybe because it's on private property and you aren't going to tell me where it is. But how do I know where to avoid if you don't tell me?
And since it isn’t sinking any more, wouldn’t this be a sankhole?
No, it's about to sink. That's why people died in it: getting too close before it does so. It's the same with all sinkholes; think of it as a low-budget event horizon. You know, like the movie?
So why are these people dying in there? What's killing them??
probably the giant swamp worm that created the hole in the first place
Sinkhole ghost, probably.
secret sinkhole society
It's kinda too bad as these usually have archaeological value. Macabre for sure, but people and animals have probably been falling in there, for a very long time. I hope it can get a proper investigation at some point in the future.
I think deepest sinkhole was already enough information
"in Florida" was enough information.
