He's the man who was swallowed up in a sinkhole in Florida doing nothing but sleeping in his bed. His family tried to save him, but it was too late: He got sucked into the hole that is estimated to be 30 feet deep.
When rescuers sent a camera down, they heard and saw no signs of life. And they abandoned trying to rescue or retrieve Mr. Bush, saying it's too dangerous to recover the body.
I do not want to minimize his death; it is tragic, moreso because he did nothing to deserve it. But dammit, what a way to go: Sucked into a sinkhole. This is one of those things people talk about years after it happened. One day we'll hear another story about a sinkhole and a bizarre way someone died and we'll go, "Hey, remember a few years back when a sinkhole opened up and just swallowed a guy to death?" And do you know what we'll say then?
Poor bastard.
