Louisiana Sinkhole Video: Trees Disappear

WATCH: Tree-Sucking Sinkhole

I've got a "sinking feeling" that you're going to be absolutely shocked when you watch this video above depicting nature at its scariest.

The state of Louisiana earlier this month said it is suing Texas Brine LLC for the environmental damage and massive sinkhole that officials say was caused by the collapse of a salt dome cavern operated by the company.
