Sad for the brother…I can not even imagine hearing my brother calling for help and not be able to find him. Jeremy sure tried hard thou. 🙏🏼 💐
Not try to get him 😅
I remember when I first heard about this story. My deepest condolences go out to Jeremy and his family.
Yeah.. come to find out he had child pornography on his computer. Dude was a dirt bag
Deepest.... I see what you did there.
@@reptar69It certainly left a hole in their hearts.
That’s so heartbreaking…he heard his brother calling out to him for help. He’s probably haunted by that every day. I’m so afraid of sink holes.
Like a scar reopening the old wound that once was bringing back the painful memories of the trauma the family endured RIP!!!😢😢😢😢😢😥😢😥
“There’s no one on this planet can know what he and his family are going through…” prayers and peace to the family. I’m truly sorry for this tragedy.
CRAZY how a whole just opens up like that! INSANE! RIP brother
My deepest condolences 🙏❤️
I don’t live in Florida, but I clearly remember this very sad story. 😢
Me too. I can't imagine the horror. The poor families. ❤
I never forgot this story. My heart breaks for this family. Can’t imagine how he feels. Being there and hearing his brother cry out for help. My God, please comfort him and his family. ❤
Doesn't the fact that Jeffreys body was never found mean the sink hole is deeper than claimed or has another route elsewhere
They didn't even try to rescue him. When his brother jumped in the hole was something like 6 feet deep, and it was so unstable it just kept sinking and sinking.
@@lettus143scary
houses next to that sink hole must be worth ZERO
Who cares
Florida Sucks... 😆 @@tdub-tj6mo
Everybody seems to wonna come to Florida very popular place @@bobquattrini1787
This is so the definition of insanity if the hole keeps reopening up and you're using the same stupid technique to close it.. at what point in time do you think to try something else?
lol yep, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is insanity 100%
Suggestions for a successful repair will be welcomed.
What can be better than filling a hole with concrete? Dirt? Is that your solution? Go ahead enlighten ppl here.
Since you’re the expert, what should they do? I didn’t think so… 🤡
@@JJ-ki2js never said I was an expert pale face
I remember when this happened. Pathetic Florida officials didn't bother to try to rescue or recover the guy who got swallowed up. They just tossed some flowers down the hole and filled it in without verifying that the man was really dead. Meanwhile, if your a half dozen billionaires on a joy ride to the Titanic, no expense is spared.
You forgot to mention alien lizards.
Or if you're black or gay all the woke will come out of the woodwork to use it as a pr opportunity They'd raise millions and make sure they were saved but this was a white male southerner
That’s sad but is there a reason the rescue wasn’t attempted? Like is it too dangerous for anyone to go down there due to ever sinking nature
@@chanellee9762too dangerous and unstable hence why it keeps reopening
If it keeps opening, there must be a large void. Maybe his brother is alive down there.
If I was living near there I'd be selling my home so quick. I don't care what the engineers say, It's opened three times total
Ha! Who do you think would buy that house?
Exactly! Because it's going to happen again.
Or any other house around there.
And to think the body of that man was never recovered. That’s scary and tragic.
He jumped into a hole he couldnt see into or how deep it was to save his brother. I cant imagine going through that. R.I.P.
I remember seeing this in the news back when it first happened. Needless to say it unlocked a whole new level of fear in my life. Condolences to the family.
Keeps bringin up bad memories. I do remember this happening, man heard his brother screaming for help...
All property lost 70% of its value in the entire area, I guess. I wouldn’t move there even if it would be free.
If I were given 100 guesses on how I'm going to die, being swallowed by the earth wouldn't have been one of them. I wish this family the best.
That breaks my heart . ❤️ 😢 I am so sorry to his family. The fact that he heard his brother's voice calling for him
The neighbors are next. They are not safe. Nobody should live within 1 mile of that thing. It’s terrifying
That was a horrible wake up call
If his brother heard him screaming and jumped in the hole how the hell did authorities not recover the body . I bet they would have found it if it was somebody “famous “.
Get the hell out of here
Exactly. They go to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean to save a fee billionaires from an implosion but wouldn't even try to dig a hole for a poor white man. If he'd been black they'd of tried out of fear of being called "racist" the hole wasn't that deep they could've taken a crane and suspended men in harnesses above to dig using high powered large dirt pump ect.ect
And they still can't remove his body
They can't FIND his body to remove it.
@@carolynatkinson9298that's BS
Wait! On a another news story it was said they couldn’t recover his body because the sinkhole was sooooo deep, something like 23ft down or something. In this article, the brother could hear him screaming and was able to jump in the hole AND get back out? How could they not get to the brother who was down in there? Is there something I missed?
I’m thinking the same.
I went back and watched a few older videos, initially the hole was something like 6 feet deep and gradually got deeper and deeper. When crews were on the scene it was 20 something and seemed to eventually settle around 60ft
@@lettus143thank u
He must have just given up and they pulled him out
@@lettus143 wow and 60 ft ain't that deep at all with all the heavy equipment available today even in 2013 I could see if it was 1000 ft deep but 60 they could have lowered men in harnesses down by crane
One other thing. You never know when you’re time is up, so live every day like your last.
I live in central Florida. Doesn't help my insomnia.
Best efforts? They just pulled his brother out of the hole and claimed it was too dangerous to try to mount a rescue.
Probably because it was too dangerous to mount a rescue attempt.
@@oldbatwit5102 It was "too dangerous" to enter the classroom in Uvalde too.
@@datmeme8967 Grow up. That was survivable and there were living people, kids, to rescue.
There is no comparison at all.
Now piss off and bore someone who cares.
It wasn't even that deep they could have lowered men in harnesses down by crane its just that because it was a white male southerner they couldn't make money off it and there was no P.R value in it for them
So sad ,I felt so bad watching his brother having to relive that terrible moment. 💔
They need to excavate the entire area imo. We should all want to know what is causing it to open up and where everything in that hole is going! Then and only then can it be resolved once and for all! Start digging! Don't fill it in! Lets get to the bottom of it!
You don't live in Florida, do you? Our fresh water is in aquifers. Underground pockets in limestone. Sometimes things shift. More water usage may inevitably cause these sink holes.
@@carolynatkinson9298 I've been to Florida many times. I understand the ground water situation but that sink hole will likely never stop opening up unless they figure out a better way to plug the hole. Also all that gravel and mud they are filling it in with is probably getting mixed in with a fresh water aquifer which probably isn't good. It'd be alot better if they excavated the area and figured out exactly whats going on so they can properly fix it imo. They're probably going to have too eventually if it keeps opening up. I can't imagine 300+ years from now they're going to still have all that fenced off and occasionally have to fill it. I also can't imagine anyone would ever use that land for anything until it's figured out. Might as well get it started!
Ha you said get to “the bottom” of it
@AdrYes find the man ianaDeCarlo-mb7xe
Lol, " surrounding neighborhoods are safe! " don't let Jeremy's passing be in vain...MOVE
Seems to me the man wants to be recovered and buried properly 🤔
I agree. Wow 😮 your comment is so powerful 😮 I'm very spiritual so I definitely understand why u typed this ❤
you are NOT Safe, what the city or state tell people
My deepest condolence. I will be praying for you.
Omg how horrific 🙏🏾♥️
Jeremy will never get out that hole if you keep pouring gravel down it. 🕳️ ?
Exactly. They should've never patched it up and kept looking for Jeffrey. Even if they have a fence around it patching up a hole is more dangerous because it's a wolf in sheep's clothing. Keeping it the way it originally was is a sign to all nature to stay away. What's the point of patching up a sinkhole when it will reopen, it's just apart of a nature design. Humans keep patching up something that is supposed to be a hole and expecting it to not reopen. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome right? Also they are burying Jeffery's body deeper and deeper underground when they keep adding new dirt on it for it to crash down making it less and less impossible to find his body.
Sending Prayers
It keeps opening up because it's deeper than you think
What is causing it to reopen?
I’m sorry for your loss brother.
As someone who cannot stand his own brother (adopted), I feel for this man who lost a brother he DID love.
That's the way it goes.
A Brothers Love. Sir I am sorry for your loss. God Bless You and your Brother.
My sincerest condolences to you and your family 🙏❤️
💔R.I.P. Jeff
This is Scary & Tragic !!!
Filling with gravel and WATER?
Jesus! I can't even imagine.

@@WWJD799shut up
I would be terrified to live nearby!!
I live in Florida now but man, I lived in Illinois back in 2013 at the time. Holy moly that is a one bad spot.
Which do you prefer, Illinois or Florida?
@@asanta2023 I prefer Florida, even though the weather is hot and hurricane season concerns but I love it here in Florida.
For the rich, they go to the bottom of the ocean with our tax dollars. For the poor, they won't even dig a hole.
That's a dumb comparison and you know it.
@Maspets It's not a comparison, it's an observation. What do you think is dumb about the examples used, or is it the point?
Dude was a dirtbag.. he ended up having child pornography on his home computer. The devil took this man
@@MrLoobu It was a comparison, and it is dumb.
Wtf
That whole area is standing over a open void
Why cover it up if he was never found ? Now he really is trapped
That's heartbreaking!
The horror .."they keep pouring dirt and gravel over him""...like .can you imagine the pain of knowing your loved one keeps getting gravel and sand poured over their bodies??
Why was it not possible to rescue him? I mean I understand the brother couldn't get to him but when rescuers came, why couldn't they dig till they found him?
My question. Whats underneath their thats sucking up all the sand. Cavern, underground tunnels?
Even though it has just been that specific spot…as a neighbor I wouldn’t chance it… so sad
Rest In Peace! I Remember when this happened TRAGIC.
Prayers to the family for such a loss. Peace be with you!
Lifetime trauma. Ik he hears his brother still calling for him
I'm so sorry for your loss. May God bless you and your family.
Theres a massive cave under there please look he could just maybe still living.
Y’all ain’t safe 😭😭
Jeffery is still fighting to give his family closure and peace. I think because Jeffrey is confused he doesn't know why did the hole up specifically while he was sleeping in the beginning. I think Jeffery is probably have something to do with this sinkhole keeps opening up after the first time. Alot people are in a confused state immediately after death. They don't know they're dead. So they begin to to show us in many ways that they are still there. But because alot of us always believed that there is a logical explanation for this and that. Look at situations from both sides. There's a reason behind everything.
… Don’t sinkholes open BECAUSE of water? Why add more? I’m not an expert so I’m genuinely curious.
Omg, his brother was calling for him? Just horrifying. Those things scare me. An abyss just opening up.
I am so sorry for your loss and your nightmare. You are in my prayers to source that you may find peace. LightNLove
Why does it keep reopening? Is it growing underneath the ground? What caused it to begin with? 🤔
Damn this made me cry. Prayers to Jeremy and his family. ❤
Im so sorry 😭❤️😔
God bless this family

Poor guy this is so sad 😢🙏
😢 condolences to that family
I remember this happening and it is so sad 😭
One minute your in bed next min your in bed 20 feet under your house tragic. Condolences to the family
The news of when it initially happened ten years ago made it all the way to the west coast. I remember it made me cry because my world would implode too if I lost my brother/best friend.
I would move out of that area.
.. missed a chance to find the body when the hole reopened.
Take comfort that he will raise with a new incorruptible body in the morning of resurrection in Jesus Christ name 🙏. His soul is peaceful in heaven ❤
Send someone down there to see what it looks like...
It's Too DANGEROUS! They Can't Risk Any More Lives!
So sad 😢
Ez annyira szomorú és nyomasztó!!!😢
and the rescuer team only put a flower on the sink hole instead of digging or tried to find the body of his brother
This is why I have trouble with believing!
Unfortunately, this happened often in Florida. It happened in june this year in a lady's backyard
How deep was this sinkhole
Mercy sakes
thats crazy, never found again
What about SHANKSVILLE????
Wth why refill it!? There's a body down there
professionals reporter❤
The stuff nightmares are made of. How awful for Jeffrey's brother and family. My gosh why should anyone have to endure such tragedy. It would be so very hard to find peace after this but I pray they have.
I came to a final conclusion.. This hole leads to the gates of hell.😢
Sweet hole bro!
How deep was the sinkhole that they couldn’t recover the body
Is very very deep in very dangerous
What a terrible way to die. How do you disappear into a hole… like… there was nothing on top of you. You were on top of the hole 🕳
Wait were they ever able to recover the body?
No. Listen
All of Florida is slowly sinking.. And NYC...
He's in jumanj
Make a memorial out of it. I remember it and it is like a nightmare, still brings Trama. It is still horrific.
2:21 They did make a memorial in a fenced in area before the sinkhole fenced area.
They should open it as a national park and encourage people to dig it out like a diamond mine. Get to the bottom of why it keeps happening as a group effort!
@@tyleral5280Not enough money earned for digging
RIP 🙏
What a stupid comment. "There's no one in the planet that can understand what he's going through" dude a death is a death, millions of people know what he's going through.
Are you serious? Dude jumped in a sinkhole to SAVE his brother. He heard him yelling for help.
