Pools have huge mass. If that much mass shifts, the effects on surrounding ground are extreme. Here in OZ people often say empting a pool is a suicide move: the concrete pops out of the ground as the resistance built up in the surrounding ground pops.

A big condo complex pool draining rapidly would be a hell of a trigger.
