Why are there no photos of the Florida sinkhole that swallowed the guy in his bed?

How could he fall into a hole under the house? Wouldn't there be a floor in the house and don't floors usually hold together even when a house is undermined? Why was the house also fully intact?

Apparently in that part of Florida, the laws of physics have been suspended.

The Bush brothers both worked for the Florida Department of Transportation, Jeremy said, doing roadside assistance. His brother moved to the home three months ago from Zephyrhills. They lived there with Jeremy's fiancee, Rachel Wicker, their 2-year-old daughter, Hanna, and two other relatives.

Leland Wicker, owner of the home, was vacationing in North Carolina on Thursday night. He said the four-bedroom home, built in 1974, passed a sinkhole inspection in August and is insured.

The friends and family of Jeffrey Bush gathered near the house Friday morning and, adhering to the cordoned off safety zone, dragged lawn chairs in front of the homes across the street. Many of them still wore pajamas. They walked in circles, their eyes glazed, rimmed in red, their hands trembling, gripping cigarettes. Some talked about charging past the workers and digging Bush out themselves. Some didn't talk, just clinging to stuffed animals and staring across the street.

And they watched.

About noon, they watched a team send an underground camera into the stormwater pipes. About 2:30 p.m., they watched workers roll drilling equipment out front of the home. At 3, they watched the equipment stop working and then watched a man crawl underneath the equipment with a wrench and work for more than 30 minutes.

Just after 4 p.m., a sheriff's deputy asked them to move back, for their safety. Emotions boiled over.

Jeremy Bush cursed and looked across the street at the workers in the yard.

He stormed off down the street, threatening to punch firefighters. An older woman ran after him, and they met in an embrace in the middle of the street, both crying. Then Jeremy walked off, and the woman went back to her lawn chair, sobbing.

"My baby's in a hole," she said.

About 6:30 p.m., a line of county officials held a news conference to say they were doing all that they could.

"Until we know where it's safe to bring our equipment," Chief Rogers said, "we're really handicapped."

Then Deputy Duvall, the first on scene, spoke.

Duvall's shift ended at 7 a.m. He tried to sleep, but couldn't. He came back because he wanted to be here. This neighborhood had warmed his heart with how it helped the family, he said.

"These are everyday, working people. They're good people."

Then he looked at the cameras. He had a message for viewers.

"You guys out there, if you know these people, if you know this neighborhood, pray for them."

Times photographer Luis Santana and staff writers Craig Pittman and Stephanie Bolling contributed to this report.

Lol...really, like there some kind of sinkhole conspiracy out there now, you retards really are groping for shit now.

A man is swallowed into the earth and you are not impressed?

Someone flipped the lights. Jeremy, 36, threw the door open, revealing a sight that defied belief: The earth had opened beneath his brother's bedroom and was swallowing everything in it. The tip of Jeffrey's mattress was the only thing left, and it was sinking into a churning sinkhole.

Someone in the house called 911: "The bedroom floor collapsed and my brother-in-law is underneath the house."

Hillsborough County sheriff's Deputy Douglas Duvall was not sure exactly what that meant until he got to the one-story house at 240 Faithway Drive just after 11 p.m. Thursday and found Jeremy Bush trying in vain to dig into a hole threatening to claim him. Duvall pulled him to safety.

Then the waiting began.

An army of rescue authorities came, followed by an army of media, and everyone tiptoed around yellow caution tape and bulging television station cables Friday as the rescuers tried to figure out what they could do, safely, to find a man buried in an expanding sinkhole.

In the midst of the scrum sat the friends and family of 37-year-old road worker Jeffrey S. Bush, sobbing, consoling each other, screaming at rescue workers, struggling to come to terms with the fact the rubble under the aqua home Bush lived in may be his final resting place.

In the early 1980s, state officials were determined to solve the mysteries behind the cause of sinkholes. In 1981, during a drought, a gigantic sinkhole opened in Winter Park, swallowing a car dealership, a home and part of a road. The Legislature created a research institute at the University of Central Florida.

After a while, according to Stewart, legislators cut funding.

"They figured, 'We don't need this any more,' " he said. "We haven't had another one of these in the news in a while."

Warning signs

Experts say there's really nothing anyone can do to prepare for a sinkhole like the one Thursday night in Seffner. But there are warning signs:

. Gradual localized ground settlement

. Doors and windows failing to close properly

. Cracks in a foundation or steps

. A circular pattern of ground cracks outlining the sinking area

. Cloudiness in local well water due to sediment washing into the limestone's pores

The police found his driver's license in his brother's pocket...

Look at this! A shill trying to "explain" how disinfo works!

We see right through that little "trick" you and your supervisor are trying to pull! Back to the drawing board, Shill!!!

Jeez...This story MUST be a hoax, given the amount of moran SHILLS bombarding this thread with nonsense.

Are you really claiming that HAARP is harmless, and weaker than your HAM RADIO?!?!?

gtfo, Shill!!!

Well, there is...if you include mugshots. :)

the sinkhole family look like dirty people. scum. more believable that way.

If you look at pictures of the site you'll notice that there is a storm drain on the curb in front of the house, or a little to the left, facing the house from the street. there is another one across the street.

If there are a storm drains then there is a system of large pipes under there also

Anything could be going on underground there, including making a 'hole' and even removing material through the pipe system if they wanted to. On some of the newscasts you could see workers coming up out of it.

Point is that even if a picture eventually appears of a 'hole', doesn't mean anything. Could have been done anytime or one could be made now.

Why?

When the New Madrid goes off - and they blame it on sinkholes...you'll believe it

Here's another clue/connection - the "sinkhole expert" is named you guessed it Larry Madrid:

Florida Man Swallowed by Sinkhole: Conditions Too Unstable to ...

If I lived in Florida, I would sleep in a hammock that is suspended from the ceiling.

Florida - the shithole of a million shitholes

WTF!!!!!! Zoom in (not the street level view, the view *just* before street-level, from above....YOU CAN NOT SEE THE HOUSE!!!!


There is a tree which *COMPLETELY* occludes the house from view! The tree (and its perfect shadow outline) appear photo-shopped to my eye.


Check this out, people!

Also from the street-level view, the house to the left of #240, while viewing from Faithway Drive toward the front door of the house, appears to be a different structure from street-level to the closest overhead view.


Anyone else check this out and have any thoughts???!!!

This story gets weirder and weirder!!!

Who is going to pay money for a picture of a non-hole?

No apparent big tree present blocking 240 from it's left side either on street view, the same tree you see from above. Of course they could have had it cut down, but the whole thing is just weird. Street view no signs (cracks etc.) of impending sinkhole problems at that house either.

Thats right in the middle of Florida's sinkhole hotbed:

Like a time-portal, or a CERN-created black hole/strangelet?


This thought has been tossed around here within this thread, and I would like to know what you and others mean by this. Please do elaborate on what you think it could be.

At this point, the actual fiery pit of Hell is just as plausible as a giant sinkhole that did nothing to the house above it....

Seriously, where are the civil engineers, the architects, the military engineer corpsmen who see this story and shout, "BULLSHIT!" the house shows 0% damage, but yet the concrete slab collapsed suddenly and instantly to a cavernous sinkhole *directly* underneath the house, but yet the walls, roof, etc show absolutely no stress, cracks, damage, nada.

I wonder if this is an actual hoax, designed to begin discrediting truth-seekers, critical thinkers, and conspiracy theorists who have been looking into:
Dorner immolation murder by LAPD
Sandy Hook event
Benghazi coverup
Fast and Furious gun sales coverup
Batman/Aurora event....

And that is just in the past 8 months!!!!!! Nevermind 9/11, Waco, JFK, etc.

They've demolished more than half of the house... where is this hole?!

[link to www.youtube.com]

Yes - because of lawsuits. They will erect a fence to keep people from wandering onto the property.

Somethings amiss.

Keepin this thread alive and pinned.


Remember how quick they were, literally the DAY THE MAN fell into the sinkhole, they changed it from a "Rescue" mission to a "Recovery" mission.

In less than 24 hours, the same day the man disappeared, the authorities deemed Jeff Bush dead, and stopped actively trying to rescue him.




Hmmm...does make you wonder what the HELL is under that house?


Is it possibly CERN-related? Black hole/rip in time-space?

30 foot sinkhole and demolition will continue tomorrow. hope for a live helicopter feed.

Looks as if, from the aerial helicopter feeds today, that the news has the booms up for the live feed from the ground.

it should make for good morning joe entertainment.

obliviously the concrete slab was thin and/or of very poor quality or wrong mixture. DIY slab maybe.

just guessing...

ok so the sinkhole is bullshit, now we need to find out what really did happen and why is there a cover up??

obviously if you watch this video, the sinkhole has magically disappeared
