China sinkhole swallows five people

Five people waiting at a bus stop in the provincial capital of Harbin, China had a lucky escape from serious injury when a two-metre deep sinkhole opened in the ground beneath them. Closed-circuit surveillance footage of the China sinkhole incident shows three people dropping into the opening with a fourth falling in sideways and a fifth clinging frantically to below ground pipes exposed by the collapsing earth.
