Hola Mark, List, nice catch...
Based on the photo, the only interpretation that appears sensible:
 
"Investigating the hole, measuring roughly 2-feet across and 5-feet deep,  
Davidson, 57, said he doesn't believe it was caused by animals, lightning, or  
"blue ice" falling from an airplane."
 
...is that Davidson himself is 2-feet across and 5-feet tall, though he  
doesn't look that broad nor that short.  Maybe they got confused with Buddy  
Cianci?
Saludos, Doug
