Giant sinkhole opens in Germany
From Lounge Daddy at Dateline Zero – Repairs are to begin Wednesday on a 65-foot-deep (20 meters) sinkhole that opened in the eastern German town of Schmalkalden on Monday, local authorities said. Officials told the paper more than 1,000 truckloads of gravel would be needed to fill the hole.
The sinkhole, which measured more than 130 feet (40 meters) across, swallowed a car and forced the evacuation of 25 people in nine houses, the regional newspaper Thueringer-Allgemeine reported.
Just this past March, the archive of the city of Cologne in Germany collapsed, taking a lot of history with it. The official finger of blame was pointed to subway construction. The building held 65,000 documents, 500,000 photographs of the city and 100,000 architectural drawings and plans.
However, there is suspicion that a sinkhole problem is to blame, and the government would rather blame the subway construction than cause panic over sink-holes.
Reporting on the latest sink-hole, CNN News said that residents reported hearing a loud roar as the earth gave way early Monday morning, around 3am. The cause of the sinkhole had not been determined.
Jürgen Reinholz, environment and agriculture minister for the state of Thuringia, said natural causes were suspected, according to Spiegel Online International.
In the past year, large sinkholes have appeared in Guatemala City, Tampa, Fla., Quebec, and Milwaukee, Wisc.
