This is how you flush an entire lake down a hole. An exploratory drilling exercise miscalculates the location of a salt mine while drilling through a lake bed. The mine is hit, and the oil derek, the mine, the lake, and a few barges are a total loss. Here's the amazing video!
Sinkhole radiation 15 times over limit, residents urged to record health signs
