  1. They can find a sub on ocean floor but not Jeff?

  2. It's kinda scary. Imagine being asleep in your home and being swallowed by a sinkhole.

  3. Developers knew and didn't care. Florida is going to be a complete s**thole soon. Leave now if you can.

  4. I remember that story when it swallowed that guy sleeping in his bed. But isn't it crazy that they never found him? Guess they didn't want to venture too far down there to look and risk a bigger hole.

  5. ….why don't they just move him permanently?

  6. fill it with tires

  7. That men the devil took him that’s why they couldn’t find his body the devil took the whole house go and throw holy water all over that sink hole

  8. Whyyyy not pour tons of concrete 😢😮duh

  9. Take the loss. Fill it with water, make it a park with a pond. Name it after the victim.

  10. Why aren’t we talking about the reason we haven’t seen the body? 19 feet deep where could he possibly have gone?

  11. Can you imagine that? Just… what IF your home was somehow built over such an unlucky plot of land? :/ Man. Existence is weird.

  12. They never found the body?

  13. Is a sinkhole the county’s problem? Surprised they’re filling it for him

  14. That’s kind of cool how they can keep it in the same location.

  15. Only in Florida smh

  16. He looked SO nervous! 😅

  17. I remember when this happened

  18. Mr Willie Holiway don't worry you can sell the house with the property. I will give you $10,000 dollars 💸 💵 for it I will risk it with the sink 🕳 hole.

  19. Terrifying for the poor man who died. I remember the story when it happened.

  20. Build back better

    That's what happens when Biden runs the country.

  21. How was the body never found?

  22. Cant they fill it with Quikrete concrete.

  23. Perfect place for a trump or DeSantis rally!!

  24. THE EARTH IS ALIVE, A SINGLE CELL LIVING ORGANISM, WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!

  25. it's a chasm from zelda totk.

  26. Sir….please do move !

  27. This is engraved in my mind i have not forgotten about this. I can't imagine going through what that family did. So scary and sad 😢

  28. 😂😂😂😂 why not dig down there and figure it out

  29. That's one real scary thing about Florida – those sink holes randomly appearing.

  30. Does Florida have one single thing going for it?

  31. Jeepers Creepers vibes.
