Taxi Swallowed Up by Sudden Sinkhole in the Middle of a Road

A taxi driving down a rainy road suddenly gets sucked right under the pavement.

It looks almost like a billiard ball falling into a pocket.

As torrential rain accompanied by thunder and lightning lashed Istanbul, Turkey overnight, a section of the road collapsed, and a passing taxi fell straight into the pit.

Firefighters dispatched following a report and nearby citizens joined forces to barely pull the vehicle out, but fortunately, no one was injured.
