A terrified dad has told how he cheated death by "three seconds" after a 70ft-deep sinkhole appeared outside his front door. Harri Chadha (corr) leapt in fright when a giant cavern suddenly opened up where he had been standing moments earlier.<br /><br />Dramatic pictures shows how the 15ft-wide hole swallowed up Harri's garden path and front garden outside his home in Halesowen, West Mids. The fashion photographer said: “I must have done something good somewhere because I really should be dead."<br /><br />"I had just been standing on the path after closing my front door moments before the earth collapsed in on itself. Literally three to five seconds earlier and I would have been a goner for certain."
