In Israel, a sinkhole that appeared beneath a swimming pool has claimed the life of a man.

The 30-year-old guy was discovered at the end of a 49-foot (15-meter) tunnel beneath the swimming pool in Karmei Yosef, in central Israel.

emergency assistance Before discovering the body, rescuers using Go-Pro cameras built a scaffolding to stop the rest of the pool from collapsing and worked for four hours to save others.

More than 50 guests at the company pool party can be seen horrified as the sinkhole drains the pool in the horrifying video.

As partygoers rush to leave, several floats, including a blow-up flamingo, can be seen falling into the hole in the middle of the pool.

Authorities reported that a 34-year-old guy who was also sucked into the pit managed to climb out with only minor injuries.

They stated that further sinkholes in the region were being found using a helicopter.

Police stated that they were looking into the tragedy and whether the pool was run legally.

The Jerusalem Post quoted paramedic Uri Damari as saying, “This is a highly unique situation.”

“When I arrived at the scene, I discovered a pit that had developed at the base of the barren pool.

“Personels who were there told me that the pit opened abruptly and that all of the pool’s water was drawn in within a few seconds.”

A 34-year-old man got himself out of the pit and was sitting outside the pool disturbed, Damari continued.

He had minor head and body injuries, and after receiving medical attention, we took him to the hospital.

‘The water level suddenly started decreasing and a hole opened up, generating a vortex that pulled two people within,’ a partygoer told Israel’s Channel 12.

“The ground just collapsed… I observed two people disappear,” a different witness told Ynet.

When the sinkhole developed, she claimed there were six people in the pool, and she yelled at them to get out.

Before realising what was happening and racing to safety, they initially believed it to be a game.
