Have you ever driven along the highway and double looked at something you saw in your eye's corner? This is a typical experience for people who pass by Lake Berryessa, the seventh biggest human-made lake in California.
That's because it has what looks to be a giant hole. Out of use for many years due to the prolonged drought in California, it has finally sprung into action again in early 2017, capturing the interest of a man with a drone.
If you're curious to know what the inside of the hole looks like, then check out the breathtaking video below:
Lake Berryessa, built against a 304-foot dam, is famous for its "Glory Hole" slipway, a fantastic sight to see when it is at full capacity, especially, as the video above shows, when it's captured from the perspective of a drone.
When the drone captured the footage, it was the first time the glory hole had been used in more than a decade. Because of the rain that fell in January and February 2017, the lake filled up in only a few days.

The hole's widest part measures a surprising 72 feet across, and it travels a further 28 feet down. The water flowing into it is passes through a funnel, which eventually drains out into Putah Creek.
YouTube user Evan K captured the impressive video.
