Worlds' Biggest Drain Hole is Terrifying Portal to The Middle of The Earth

Water can be seen flowing into the world's largest drain hole, measuring 22 metres in diameter, that has been dubbed "a portal to the middle of the Earth" at the Monticello Dam in California


BBC 5 AUG 2023








Dramatic images shows water swirling down into the world’s largest drain hole dubbed a "portal to the middle of the Earth" where a person tragically died when she got caught in the current.


Called Morning Glory Spillway, the man-made hole empties water from Lake Berryessa at the Monticello Dam in California to stop flooding. It was built in the 1950s with a diameter of 22 metres and the dam serves as part of an irrigation system with Lake Berryessa a reservoir providing water for agriculture in the Sacramento Valley.

YouTuber Matt Casias sent a drone over the top of the drain hole to capture an amazing view of the water swirling down the 93 metres from the dam. The drain hole can be seen functioning when the water reaches a high level in the dam.

Tragically a woman was killed in the drain hole in 1997 when she was caught in the current and swept down.

Emily Schwalek was paddling in the lake and couldn’t stop being dragged to the hole, with reports saying that she held onto the rim for about 20 minutes before falling.

Lake Berryessa can hold around a 52billion gallons of water before the excess begins to flow into the spillway.
