Damn.
I kinda wanna go down there.:D
It looks like the walls are made of sand. It could collapse at any moment. Still I wonder how deep it goes.

Heh, that whole part of the world stinks (literally), so it may as well sink too. :haha:
Damn impressive... but..
Am I the only one thinking that both picture show different sink holes?
Maybe it just looks like it that way.. :hmmm:

The first thing that went through my mind when I saw that was, 'That's the coolest thing I've seen all day.'
Unfortunately that probably means we'll soon have swarms of demon bats and an evil zombie infestation :shifty:

No one has ever been down there and came back (Except for Mr. Doomguy, obviously, but he doesn't say much)...
EDIT: Oh, wait, Doomguy never came back either. Did he?
EDIT 2: Ah, he did.
The last one back in 2007 was approx 100m deep :doh:

If it were miles it would be rather warm in Guatamala city right about now... :haha:
Still, it has happened.
Parícutin started life as a small fissure in a farmers field in Mexico in 1943 and is now 2800m high! :doh:

Yeah, you're right. The "lol" was far too short to be elite. Oh, you meant post count!! :D

The cone is only 400m high. 2800m is the absolute altitude from sea level :know:

Ah...yes...good point. Still, no mole hill :yep:
(I wondered what absolute altitude meant, and now I know. Thanks :up:)
