When natural erosion , human mining or underground excavation makes the ground too weak to support the structures built on it , the ground can collapse and produce a sinkhole . For example , the 2010 Guatemala City sinkhole which killed fifteen people was caused when heavy rain from Tropical Storm Agatha , diverted by leaking pipes into a pumice bedrock , led to the sudden collapse of the ground beneath a factory building
