    It's China ... but could easily be Thailand


    A motorcyclist escaped with only minor injuries after riding into a sinkhole in China.
    The footage, taken last week, shows the man looking at his phone shortly before crashing into the gaping crater in the road.
    CCTV captured the moment the street collapses before the unwitting motorcyclist drops into the hole head- first.
    Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago ...

    It could be Thailand: The chap that casually walks over and takes pics instead of seeing if the crash victim was ok or raising the alarm.

    ^True, but what did you expect him to do..jump in after him?

    Could be Thailand or any other place. The same thing happened in Ottawa, Canada last year... luckily no one was in the van that got swallowed up by the sinkhole.

    what a silly comparison and expectation.
    Have another look at the OP video. The chap is in frame seeing what happened and casually walks over and appears to be taking pics. He should have been much less casual and raising the alarm.

    ok, my bad, I didn't see him taking a pic.. but do you think Thais would have jumped into save him or take a pic as well? I guess we don't know what they would have done.
