Description

A hole in southern China is 2,170 feet deep and just as wide — and about 210 million cubic feet of rock has vanished from it without leaving a pile behind. Now find seven more like it, on four continents, in rock that has nothing in common. A documentary investigation into eight natural shafts that no one dug: we compare the evidence side by side, run the calculations, and test each standard geological explanation against the very rock it is supposed to explain. In this video: • A forest at the bottom of a pit deeper than the Empire State Building is tall — and the stream that supposedly emptied it • The "Well of Hell" in Yemen: a desert shaft that gets wider the deeper you go • Cousteau's 1971 dive into a circle so clean it looks drawn with a compass • A Siberian crater that keeps rebuilding itself — and the three suspects that were sent home • Two shafts on a Venezuelan mountaintop, cut through rock that water can barely touch • A Namibian lake that swallowed an army's cannons, where sonar never found the floor • Holes opening in the Arctic right now — and why their explanation covers only one of eight 📍 Locations: Chongqing (China) · Al-Mahra (Yemen) · Lighthouse Reef (Belize) · Irkutsk region (Siberia) · Bolívar state (Venezuela) · Otjikoto near Tsumeb (Namibia) · Yamal Peninsula (Arctic Russia) 🔗 Previous video: "The 40-Ton Stones of Machu Picchu the Inca Couldn't Move" 🔗 Next video: "18,600 Miles of Ancient Roads Built Without the Wheel" ⏱ Timestamps: 00:00 A hole 2,170 feet deep — and the missing rock 03:40 The Well of Hell: a shaft that widens downward 06:20 The Great Blue Hole: a circle drawn with a compass 09:00 The Patomskiy crater: the cone that grows 11:50 Sarisariñama: holes in rock that doesn't dissolve 14:40 Otjikoto: a lake with no floor 17:20 Yamal: the newest holes 20:10 One system?
