New Surveillance video shows the moment a giant sinkhole opened up in the middle of a soccer field.

"that's why the light pole wasn't working" - some electrician probably

Sinkholes are the creepiest natural disasters imo.

Who else was thinking of that football scene from the Dark Knight Rises? 😅

Estimated to be 100 feet? There's an actual ruler on the grass...No estimation necessary.

That light pole completely disappeared, I don't see any trace of it in the drone footage 😧😳

[MadScientist]

The light pole... it was just too much finally.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the light post.

Imagine if this happened during a game, with people standing over it.

[NOTIMPRESSED]

A mine was determined to be under that area and yet they built the soccer field right on it!?!?! Yea ok.. glad nobody was there

[raeganlady]

Thank goodness no one was on the field

[Mrfallouthero]

I honestly thought this was clickbait, and now im thoroughly shocked.

With that turf it looks like one of those rugs you can buy that looks like a black hole.

Why did they put a soccer field over a mine?

[ThallVic]

"What a lovely, lovely voice!"

[Heikin-Ashi-Larry]

Who is the genius that decided to build a school on top of an old mine????

[days]

oh and BTW... soccer practice has been canceled.

[KAOSARCADE]

Wait a minute there's poles with lights in the middle of soccer fields 🤔

Came to comments to see if anyone had anything insightful about there being a "mine" under a soccer field...
