Blue holes - Magical Realist - Feb 13, 2018 Jacob's Well...Dripping Springs Texas ![]() Great Blue Hole, Belize ![]() Blue Hole, Santa Rosa, N.M. ![]() 5 Blue Holes http://worldtoptop.com/top-beautiful-blue-holes-sea/ Blue Hole Bahamas ![]() Sua Ocean Trench, Samoa ![]() RE: Blue holes - Zinjanthropos - Feb 13, 2018 Coincidence, the Nature Channel here did a documentary on the Bahamian blue holes last night. Do you think it wise to build an edifice so close to one? I believe the hole is created when the underground cave roof collapses. So if it's collapsed once and I construct a building close to the edge of it, could it happen again? RE: Blue holes - Leigha - Feb 14, 2018 Those places look heavenly. I wish I had a "blue hole" to escape to. RE: Blue holes - C C - Feb 14, 2018 Yah, I'll take blue holes any day. But even scientists like anthropologists prefer their version of a "black hole" that swallowed an indigenous girl 13,000 years ago. NARRATOR: The black hole, "Hoyo Negro," is so big the beams of their flashlights cannot find its floor. Breathless with excitement, they begin their descent. |
