This glory hole is fed by overflow water at Lake Berryessa, west of Woodland, CA.   There is something to be said about a possible primal fear of black holes and similar phenomena, as some children find watching the water going into this glory hole very disturbing.   A University of California at Davis graduate student fell into this glory hole in the mid-1990's.
