Vintage Corvette’s swallowed by sinkhole at Kentucky museum

National Corvette Museum Sinkhole
Spectacular security footage of a sinkhole forming at the National Corvette Museum shows the hole swallow up eight classic cars in the middle of the museum. Luckily the sinkhole materialised at night when the museum was closed, but security guards were shocked to see the devastation after responding to the alarm.
The sinkhole, estimated to be 40 feet wide and 30 feet deep swallowed up eight of the iconic cars including two which were being loaned to the museum. Among the cars damaged was the 1 Millionth Corvette ever made and a 1962 black Corvette.
Executive director of the museum, Wendell Strode told the press, “As it started happening, it triggered an alarm, so the security company called an employee.
“As best as I can see it is about as big as the pedestal area where we had all the cars displayed.
