These  holes are not only amazing, but some  are really terrifying!  The sheer  scale of these holes reminds you of just how tiny we are.
Kimberley   Big Hole -   South  Africa
Apparently  the largest ever hand-dug excavation in the  world, this  1097 meter deep mine yielded
over 3 tons of  diamonds before  being closed.
Glory  Hole -   Monticello Dam,     California
A  glory hole is used when a dam is at full  capacity and  water needs to  be drained from the reservoir. It  is the largest spillway of this type in the  world and consumes  14,400 cubic feet of water every second.

Sinkhole in     Guatemala
These  photos are of a sinkhole that occurred in   Guatemala .  The hole  swallowed 2 dozen homes and killed at least 3  people.
SHIT  HOLE,   Washington      D.C.
This hole swallows trillions and
trillions of U.S. Dollars annually!
The money that falls into this hole
is never heard from again!
It is reported to be filled with
at least 535 ‘ass holes’.
