Imagine you're minding your business like any other regular day in your own house- and suddenly the floor of your veranda shakes a bit, followed by a sudden gush of dirty water taking over the floor, which is ultimately followed by the ground bursting open with muddy water coming out of it with high pressure. Sounds like a nightmare, correct? Well, it truly was a nightmare for this Chhattisgarh man, as that is exactly what happened with him inside his house, allegedly in Bilaspur. The incident unfolded on Thursday, January 29. A CCTV footage of the same was shared on social media, which went viral on social media.The clip showed the man rushing to safety as soon as the water gushed out with great pressure. Allegedly, it was an underground boring

pipe that had burst open due to pressure. To make everything worse, there was nothing wrong with the pipe under the man's house, but it was instead a result of some heavy machine boring work that was going on in his neighbouring house. Check out the viral post:“Chhattisgarh, In Bilaspur, heavy machine boring work was going on in a plot. Due to high pressure, the boring pipe of the neighbouring house burst. The ground suddenly cracked open and a powerful stream of water gushed out,” the post read. The video was shared on X (formerly Twitter) by the handle ‘SachinGuptaUP’.
