A small rig drilling in a shallow lake in Louisiana loses circulation, the resulting whirlpool swallows the rig.
As the chasm widens, several barges with loaded trucks are sucked under, the entire lake is drained, a huge waterfall is formed as the Gulf of Mexico is forced to run backwards for several days until pressure equalizes!
Geysers spout from the ground,shooting 400 feet into the air!
