00:01Imagine stepping into your own backyard and suddenly disappearing into the ground.
00:06That's what happened to a man in Phoenix, Arizona, when a massive sinkhole opened up,
00:11trapping him nearly six feet underground.
00:14The collapse also partially swallowed a pickup truck,
00:17forcing firefighters to secure the vehicle before attempting the rescue.
00:21A rescue worker climbed into the hole and helped pull the injured man to safety.
00:26He was taken to the hospital in stable condition and officials suspect heavy rainfall may have contributed to the collapse.
