The FBI in Florida is searching for whoever is responsible for this hole in Pembroke Pines, Florida, as they believe it is part of an "attempted bank burglary".
Initially, people in the area thought that a sinkhole had opened up - and it was reported to the authorities.
Road workers were sent to fix the hole when they made an amazing discovery.
It wasn't a sinkhole at all.
On closer inspection, workers discovered that the hole - about 20 miles north of Miami - was actually a small tunnel leading towards a bank.

Leading to a branch of Chase Bank, it stretches for about 46 metres and is just about wide enough for one person to crawl through on their tummy.
The FBI now believe that they have an attempted bank burglary on their hands, and are seeking to find the culprits.
