After a long day of work, the farmer, content with his farm, went to bed. The next morning, his life changed forever:
Upon looking out the window, the man discovered that his house was on the edge of a massive sinkhole that had seemingly appeared out of nowhere.
The farmhouse belonged to a Mexican farmer’s family.
These people had invested all their savings in the construction and purchase of the land and had recently moved in.
Now they have to start all over again.
The day before the incident, a hole appeared in the field, but its diameter was small. Therefore, the farmer didn’t pay much attention to it.
If only he knew what would happen next. Now the collapse depth is already 18 meters, and its diameter has exceeded 90 meters.
Experts from the Mexican Ministry of the Environment believe that the ground subsided due to the rapid pumping of groundwater.
Just look at the funnel from a different angle. That’s what the farmer saw from the corner window of his house.
The ground also collapsed in the nearby field, where a similar typical house stood.
The government has already promised to compensate for the damages to the man. However, the farmer himself says he will now move to the city.
