One minute you're sat peacefully in your La-Z-Boy, in your boxers and slippers, rolling up a joint and watching Sportscenter on mute, the next minute you, your chair and your joint are all plummeting 75 feet straight down into the depths of a yawning chasm, never to be seen again. Such is life in the Sunshine State!
In this episode we explore the terrifying phenomenon of Florida sinkholes, what they are, what causes them, why they are in fact happening more and more often, and most importantly, what you can do to recognize them. Hell awaits!
