This guy must have been REALLY pissed at his bank!

Now, I have seen my share of destruction from angry home owners who wanted to stick it to the banks who foreclosed on them.

Broken windows, smashed tiles, cracked bathtubs and toilets, sprayed painted kitchen cabinets, ruptured copper pipes, poured concrete down toilets and bathtub drains. Seen them all.

This one tops them all. This is a swimming pool.

Yeah, that's a refrigerator!

Now, aside from the dirty water, and the trash down there, this guy decided to really destroy the pool.

This is South Florida, so we have a very high water table, and in the summer when it rains a lot, the water table is so high, that if you drain all the water from the pool, the hydrostatic pressure of the water in the surrounding ground will actually push the concrete pool's shell out of the ground.

That's why you see the entire pool is now completely broken off and raised off the deck.

I thought some of you might find that amusing, or not amusing.

You can imagine what the inside of the house look like.

Satisfaction is priceless, and paid for through deficiency judgments. :)
