A captivating video out of Kenya shows a voracious sinkhole devouring massive chunks of land and grass. The bizarre scene reportedly unfolded last Friday in the town of Kericho, where heavy rains flooded the community and, in turn, exposed chasms beneath the ground. One such opening was spotted in a huge puddle and quickly took on a life of its own.
Initially appearing rather small, the swirling sinkhole soon begins sucking in all the water around it and pulling large pieces of mud and tall grass towards the chasm. Then, much to the astonishment of onlookers filming the event, it begins swallowing the ground and the sizeable stalks of grass with apparent ease in a moment reminiscent of something out of a horror film.
