Earlier this month I shared photos of the diamond mine in Canada where they dig a big hole to get a little rock, apparently several people are fascinated with large, man-made holes in the earth’s surface because a recently popular submission to digg showed off 7 amazing holes. The diamond mine I shared was on this list, along with an amazing photo of a glory hole, and before you get to excited, I’m referring to,

a glory hole is used when a dam is at full capacity and water needs to be drained from the reservoir.

This photo is of the Monticello Dam in California.

To see more amazing glory holes, check out Fogonazo’s website.
