A mysterious sinkhole opened up over two weeks ago on a field in Santa Maria Zacatepec, about 12 miles outside the Puebla City center in Central Mexico, and this past weekend, it swallowed an entire house. Several of days of rain contributed to the sinkhole growing even larger these past week, reaching over 400-feet in length at some points, which is larger than a football field, and 150-feet deep.
The home that was swallowed was owned by a husband and wife, who lived in it with their two children. Unfortunately, they invested nearly all of their savings building it and moved in just over a year ago. Governor Miguel Barbosa is currently evaluating how to support other farmers nearby who have been affected by the sinkhole and determining the best way to compensate them for this natural disaster.

We heard something like a rumbling. We thought it was fireworks, but we looked outside and saw the earth moving and water coming up, like waves. We ran,” said Magdalena Xalamihua, one of the residents of the house, told the newspaper El País.
