I got these in my email from my Dad, The pictures are visually stunning, but the ending is pretty good also. A lot of truth on photographs....the old "1 pic is worth 1000 words" quote comes to mind.
These holes are not only
amazing, but some are really terrifying! The sheer scale of these
holes reminds you of just how tiny we are.
Kimberley Big Hole - South
Africa
Apparently the largest ever
hand-dug excavation in the world, this 1097 meter deep mine yielded
over 3 tons of diamonds before being closed.
Glory Hole - Monticello Dam,
California
A glory hole is used when a dam
is at full capacity and water needs to be drained from the reservoir.
It is the largest spillway of this type in the world and consumes
14,400 cubic feet of water every second.
Great Blue Hole ,
Belize
This incredible geographical
phenomenon known as a blue hole is situated 60 miles off the mainland
of Belize . There are numerous blue holes around the world, but none
as stunning as this one.
Sinkhole in
Guatemala
These photos are of a sinkhole
that occurred in Guatemala . The hole swallowed 2 dozen homes and
killed at least 3 people.
SHIT HOLE, Washington
D.C.
This hole swallows trillions
and trillions of U.S. Dollars annually!
The money that falls into
this hole is never heard from again, nor do we see any good come from
it.
It is reported to be filled
with thousands of "ass holes."
Good ones, and yeah, some holes millions come out, others billions go in...
