Eight Corvettes fell into a sinkhole that opened up beneath a section of the National Corvette Museum in Kentucky on Wednesday.

The sinkhole, about 40 feet wide and about 25 to 30 feet deep, appeared before dawn under the skydome section of the museum, said Executive Director Wendell Strode.

The yellow cone-shaped area houses Corvettes on loan from private owners and those "made famous by magazines and auto shows the world over," according to the museum's website.
