Her bush has the night off but it'll be back by tomorrow

@@nekoleramey4922😂that's what I heard too

Can't compete with the sinkhole, huh?

Well, I found what I was looking for

the mine spans a huge area of the city and some surrounding towns, you would think more research on potential collapse would have been done.

Hey! Mine your own business buddy!

This region has lots of mines in it. IF you do a little research, this area use to be a large producer of coal and lime. There are multiple abandoned coal and lime mines throughout the area. That is why if you by a home in the area, they check the maps to see if you need mine subsidence insurance. If you google mine maps of Madison County IL, you will see just how many mines there are in the area, with most being abandoned.

New Madrid fault activation

Michigan did the same 😂

Some dumb fool apparently 🤷

I'm just going to state an unopioniated fact. There are mines under hundreds, if not thousands of towns and cities. I toured a mine many years ago. Our guide would stop the vehicle and say, "right now we're below the mall, next stop we'll be a below city hall....ect, ect...

There’s 800,000 acres of mines in Illinois there’s a lot of buildings and fields built over mines

Same ones that tunneled in New York synagogue

Wallmart?

When the fans take to fighting is pretty exciting.. lol

FTW

As opposed to any American sport. Talk about dull.

😂😂😂😂😂

Goal!!

Totally. Obviously the mine inspectors are incompetent.

Next week. The game must go on, this is just a new dimension to the play.

Exactly correct.

Yeah because the parents were not even informed. Now we have to check are there mines under everything we do

@@jalbert222 and greedy

They would get slapped with a fine… Why ask and be denied when you can do without permission and apologize afterwards?

Mine collapses tend to happen pretty quickly, and often with little to no warning. Unless the mining company was negligent in the extreme (I.E: knowing structural braces are buckling, but ignoring it out of greed, et cetera), the cause may have been out of sight until it was too late, such as dugging into a wall with a trapped gas pocket and causing an explosion. As of right now, the mining company isn't going to say anything to the news worth a bent nickel, and likely won't until they find out just who to blame and for what. Hope everyone is doing well! Best regards.

@@ironhell813 Horrible ethics perhaps? Your question doesn't stand up. That kind of thinking is always wrong. I don't care if it works out legally or not. Its crap morality. That kind of shit is why the world sucks right now.

@@Project_-jq7jw yeah, it’s sucks but that’s the way the world is. It is what it is… until it isn’t.

The mine inspectors will be looking for negligence, but honestly they may not have had more than few minutes warning themselves. Its not like they go down there and say "Well i hope a sinkhole doesnt open today!" They actively try to prevent such things from happening in the first place.

The air and water in East Palestine are also super duper safe. The guvmint said so.

Have you heard about Lake Peigneur? Check it out.

If it is safe enough for workers to be down there, it should be safe enough to play soccer on. However, they appear to have found out why strip mining is safer.

Go to the USGS or US geological survey website. They show, and you would be amazed by the active and abandoned underground mines throughout the US..

@jonetyson Do you not see the size of this sinkhole? Seems that your opinion regarding safety is debunked.

@@TiredMomma Go to the USGS site and it will show you abandoned and current subsurface mines..

That and the car tire crumbles that give soccer players ovarian cancer by age 20.

It supposedly was banned in the 80s but obviously not.

Cheaper and easier maintenance than grass. Can play year round on it.

Nah, that's actually the smell from all the soccer moms farting from being on their keto diets.

Weird the camera is pointed at the hole?

What shape did you expect?

What got me was how centered it was in the field. Looks more like target practice

@@tonyp9179I would have expected more of a gash shape.

Most sinkholes are circular. That's how the water that carves out the holes flows. It finds a center point before going down.

@samdherring um... water dosnt drain straight down. They still flow parallel... it just washes the sediment from underneath... and then creates a funnel from the collapsing earth above

Mining in general 😂

​@@deborahwhit118you'd have nothing in general without mining in general.

No, it was actually...building a soccer field on top of it.

No just soccer practice can damage anything

It's certainly shouldn't be a mystery, I'm thinking you are absolutely correct.

It would have looked like the stadium scene in the Dark Knight Rises, only with 8yr olds. lmao

Some of the parents are glad that field is gone. Tired of soccer.

Well it was all caught on film for evidence

I should feel terrible for laughing at this.... should, but I don't...

You just gotta worry about Graboids, then.

Throw it in the hole?

I hate playing on artificial turf. Too hot, and more prone to turning ankles, and other injuries. Plus football games in the mud are the most memorable, and exciting. Sadly most playing fields are going to artificial turf in my area too, mostly for ease of maintenance.

I couldn’t help but wonder if this collapse would have occurred if you had grass roots stabilizing the soil, and absorbing the water that was falling on it. Probably would have still collapsed in this case, but it is amazing what plant roots can do for the structural integrity of soil.

This was rock that collapsed, not soil. The root zone of grass is pretty shallow.

Probably an old abandoned mine.

@@michaellyczak9337 Nope it was an active Mine.

@@martinpalm5 What are they mining ?

@@michaellyczak9337 They said limestone.

Mike Bush. He replaced Mike Hunt in the '80s.

Dems say it's Trump's fault. Not a joke. Repeat the line. Pause.

Detroit MI has a monumental salt mine under it and the lake. Can you imagine that kind of sinkhole?

Common sense, something that most people lack in modern times.

Often the mines were there before the houses. People who live where there are a lot of old mines know to check the maps before buying. I would bet that the school is not located over the mine.

Mine shafts aren't much different from subway tunnels. Who builds cities over subway tunnels? Everyone.

Not a lot of difference between a mine and a subway.

Well, they built Detroit over a salt mines 😂😂😂

Yup dey did

Maybe it was you stomping around on the field a bit too vigorously?

They fn never are…

Maximization of revenue usually supersedes any sense of safety to these ingrates, unfortunately. They drain every natural resource hastily when it is possible, and then have the audacity to all simultaneously refuse to take the blame once some unsafe event that pertains to their cash cow finally goes wrong. Not shocking or surprising, still upsetting though. I wish that that the hyper consumeristic people could have their capitalism without having profit supersede people in general, but in our shared reality, that is not possible unfortunately. Even worse that when given the choice it seems most people are content choosing pointless material things over the health and safety of people. Imagine, if money was all the sudden obsolete and deemed worthless, humans would have to find something else to base their lives on, well everyone else anyway lol.

the mine was there first they should have NEVER put a field there in the first place

God bless AMERICA😂😂😂😂 where the rich are rich and fuck everyone else 😂 puppets

And why shouldn't this happen?? Don't you know that money is more important than any child's life here in America when it involves the rich businesses 😂 don't you ever question what rich people do and what your government allows😂

@@tripsix263 No, mines should not be left in an unsafe condition, which this clearly was. Clearly corners were cut when it came to safety, and that is completely unacceptable.

the earth is round but don't tell that to a flat earther

Most of these mines started on the outskirts of these Midwestern cities after WWI, so as decades passed, town infrastructure grew and was built over these mines, instead of moving away from them. Those who took bribes to overlook the construction are long dead now. But the ghost towns they will create will become their family's legacy. It's no wonder that more people are moving away from these cities and towns faster than people moving in or breeding in the area. Anyone moving to these towns today will likely be stuck there forever. For example, this sinkhole just resulted in the depreciation of every home in Alton. And when your home is worth less than the purchase price, they'll seldom afford to move.

@@carolinematusevich889 The city official talks like it is a small thing like a water main break. His tone of voice is, "We'll get it fixed next week and have the kids playing on the field and not miss a season." But, that's his job, to spin calm and happy.

Galesburg is completely falling apart. This entire city is becoming undrivable. But if you ever want to know if your city officials are corrupt scumbags just look at the roads. Supposedly they're doing road work this summer but it's just a couple roads on the north side as usual

LOL, yes 🙌

Yes 😳😂

It is the first time I’ve ever heard of digging tunnels for limestone. I wonder if something got lost in translation. Perhaps they are digging through limestone but are mining for something else.

same in Iowa. Hundreds of open limestone pits along all the rivers. Feed for the concrete companies, one of the biggest industries in the world. Also used on the many thousands of farm roads. Dig locally to avoid expensive long haul shipping. Limestone dissolves in water so it's no surprise to me the underground mine collapsed.

Dey got those in Illinois too
