Huge chunk of Australian beach disappears overnight

0

A huge part of an Australian beach disappeared overnight (23-24 September, 2018). And experts say such 900 feet wide and 25 feet deep sinkholes will happen again since erosion will never stop in the area. The new ‘landslip’ occurred at Inskip Point, again!

And here a few pictures from above of this natural but dramatic phenomenon captured by Rainbow Beach Helicopter… Scary!:
