70,000 Sq Ft Sinkhole Appears Out Of Nowhere & People Say This Is How ‘Alien Invasions’ Begin

BUY-SELL | HELP WANTED | MATRIMONIAL

A 300-ft wide sinkhole has appeared just outside of a town in Mexico, and it has the authorities worried. 

Partly because the sinkhole seems to be growing constantly and somewhat rapidly, and partly because no one seems to be able to explain why the sinkhole appeared in the first place.

Local authorities report that the sinkhole started out with a diameter of about 15 feet. Slowly, it started expanding and has actually gulped up about 70,000 square feet of land. 

State civil engineers and various other agencies who have visited the site since last weekend have estimated that the hole, now filled with groundwater, is about 60-70 feet deep.

Ever since their visit, the locals have been asked not to go near the mouth of the sinkhole. A nearby house has also been evacuated ever since the sinkhole started expanding.

Local environmental officers believe that the extraction of aquifers and the relentless onslaught on the water table may have resulted in the appearance of the crater. 

They explain, that the timing of the appearance of the sinkhole, that is during a thunderstorm with heavy rain, actually explains such phenomenon, as rare as it may be.

Authorities also claim that such geological faults are rare, and should be dealt with extreme caution and that the entire area and surrounding districts have been put on alert.

People on Twitter, meanwhile, couldn’t help but meme the heck out of this.
