Across a 200 meter wide belt, the tundra had collapsed and vast masses of mud and melted permafrost slid into the nearby sea. As the town mayor was on site, melted ground continued to flow towards the shore.

Footage posted on Shabalin’s Instagram account show a slow flood of tundra land drifting towards the shores of the Gydan Bay.

In some places, the sinkhole is up to 20 meter deep. The dramatic sight was made on the northern coast of great peninsula Gydan, in the area between the settlements of Gyda and Yuribey, Shabalin says.
