Scientists and locals have been left stunned after a giant crack, over a half-mile (almost one kilometer) long, appeared in remote farmland in Mexico.
The 26-foot (eight-meter) deep trench opened up last week and severed Highway 26 between Hermosillo and the coast in the north of the country.
Filmed by a drone controlled by Hermosillo Desde El Cielo, the spectacular footage takes viewers along the length of the trench, which is up to 16 feet (five meters) wide.
It has baffled locals, as well as officials, with many speculating that an earthquake at the San Andreas Fault may have been the cause.
However, geologists at the University of Sonora, have blamed collapse of land on an underground stream.
Farm workers and vehicles have been forced to go around the area due to the unstable ground. Another crack was reported to have opened up in same area.
