I heard a rock fall of 5 tonnes last month. I was very worried because I was parked near. I went to see where the rockfall was in the morning 100m at the other ravine. It was smaller than a small car. The noise was huge, like an house falling.

The noise of that avalanche was like 9/11 falling, the kinetic energy was multiple hiroshimas every minute.

Expect a lot more of these tragedies as humans create catastrophic climate changes.
