Three People Stepped Onto Their Front Stoop...And It Proceeded To Open Up and Swallow Them Alive

 

Fox DC - Fire officials say two people have been injured after falling into a hole created during a concrete stair collapse in Arlington. Amazingly, their injuries are not life-threatening and a little girl who fell in too was unharmed. Emergency crews say this incident is extremely rare as the ground dropped out from under two women and a young girl just before they stepped into their home in the 900 block of N Madison Street early Monday evening. “They had come home from the grocery store,” said Arlington County deputy fire marshal Brian McGraw. “They had opened the front door, set the groceries down inside and the concrete deck just gave out underneath of them.”  All three plummeted into a narrow 10 to 15 foot hole after the collapse.

 

 

You’re telling me these things are hallow? Oh FUCK NO. Look, my biggest fear is sink holes. Ever since I started working on this site, sink holes have skyrocketed up my list of the world’s most scary things, up there with giant spiders and losing the remote before a 2 Broke Girls marathons. Sink holes are just waiting to pounce on you, your car, your pets, and your life at any given moment. They are the most ruthless bastards going right now. And now we can’t even trust stoops. One second stoop kid is sitting on his stoop, the next second he falls 15 feet to his death. The fact all 3 people survived this fall is nothing short of a modern day miracle. Why is it hallow? The only reason it should be hallow is if there is some sort of buried treasure down there. Or some sort of trap door that Nic Cage uses in his next movie. Or if Aunt Jemima used it during the Underground Railroad. Otherwise it’s just a death trap waiting to happen.
