This one was too late to make it into this morning's round-up of Daily Mail articles about random attacks by inanimate objects (and a deer):
A man is presumed dead after he was swallowed by a 100-foot-wide sinkhole that opened up underneath his bedroom in Florida on Thursday night. Jeff Bush, 36, was heard screaming for his brother as he was sucked into the 50-foot-deep hole and became trapped in the rubble when his house in Brandon, near Tampa, collapsed.
The brother ran to Bush's room and frantically tried to save him, but it was too late. Hillsborough County Fire Rescue officials arrived at the home at 11 p.m. on Thursday and the first officer on the scene rescued the brother from the edge of the chasm.
All we need now is a cow attack and I think that's the full set.

Saw the pictures on telly and the house exterior is unaffected. Still I suppose a 10 foot hole wouldn't sell as many papers as a 100 foot one.
I think you've been out-sinkholed, Mark.

NC, that was the funny thing. It was like Poltergeist but the hole swallowed the man and not the house.
VFTS, yes, good compilation but there already was a dedicated sink hole website and I bet most of them were already up there.
