Sinkholes in the Earth.....

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, CaliforniaA  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."
