Forget Kate Beckinsale, Angelina Jolie, ever Angelina (she's a slut TBH), check out these amazing holes...
7 Amazing Holes
Mirny Diamond Mine, Siberia
Red arrow is pointing to a huge truck

Kimberley Diamond Mine - South Africa
Largest ever hand-dug excavation in the world, this 1097 metre deep mine yielded over 3 tonnes of diamonds before being closed in 1914.

Glory Hole - Monticello Dam
This isn't what I thought a Glory Hole was. Impressive though.

Bingham Canyon Mine, Utah
The largest man-made excavation on earth. extraction began in 1863 and still continues today, the pit increasing in size constantly in its current state the hole is 3/4 mile deep and 2.5 miles wide.

Great Blue Hole, Belize
Situated 60 miles off the mainland of Belize is this incredible 'geographical phenomenon' known as a Blue Hole. there are numerous blue holes around the world but none as stunning as this one.

Diavik Mine, Canada
The mine is so huge and the area so remote that it even has its own airport with a runway large enough to accomodate a Boeing 737.

Sinkhole, Guatemala
A sinkhole is caused when water (usually rainwater or sewage) is soaked up by the earth on a large scale, resulting in the ground collapsing.

Any holes a goal.
I love that Glory hole. When its dry skate boarders use the exit part. There an article on it somewhere.
