Israel: private swimming pool collapses and engulfs a man who dies 13 meters underground

This Thursday, July 21, a man died while attending a company party in the town of Karmei Yosef, Israel.

A drama in the middle of a pool party. As half a dozen people bathed in the private pool at a party hosted by a marketing firm, a man was swallowed up by ‘a sinkhole that opened up’ beneath his feet, says The Times of Israel.

The victim, aged 32, was found dead four hours later, at the bottom of a hole 13 meters deep. “The water level suddenly started to drop and a hole opened up, creating a vortex”, report the relief quoted by our colleagues from the Parisian. Please note that these images may offend the sensibilities of the public.
