Big pothole appears in south Manchester

The absolutely best thing about this footage, even better than the fact that someone was pointing a camera at the hole at the right moment, is the reaction of the fellow in grey. Having moments ago seen a large and solid-looking chunk of tarmac fall six feet into the ground, he strolls casually over several feet of similar-looking tarmac to the edge of the hole and looks in.

Has he never seen any disaster movies? Why did he not immediately get eaten by a giant earthworm?

Obligatory "big hole" joke

I hope the council are looking into it.

Amusing as that is, I'd have probably done the same thing!

Look for this on YouTube within 48 hours.

It's Didsbury, the local house prices are too high for the giant earthworms!

Wow! Rather impressive that it was caught on video.
