According to local reports, another car had just driven over the same spot few minutes before. The driver did notice steaming emerging from the ground and quickly drove off.
Unfortunately, Vladimir Valyalkin and Igor Chikasov fell prey as their vehicle collapsed into a steaming sinkhole.
Both were colleagues in a furniture-making-business.
Vladimir Valyalkin was father of three, one adult daughter and two children aged nine and seven.
Distressing video and pictures showed bodies being lifted by crane from steaming hot water from the sinkhole along with the wreckage of their Lada Largus car.
A hot water pipe burst was the cause of death.
