Who has photographed a rock slide? Some have videos of them. When you are in areas where slides are happening, just be careful and keep this video in mind.

 
During the Nelson County, Virginia flood of '69 (Hurricane Camille) a boulder twice that size slid off the mountain and ended-up in the James River....It was carried for miles.

I had a co-worker who lost his entire family in a landslide then.

I'm a geologist, I have witnessed loads of rock falls.

Some of which I initiated!

When I lived in CA, CA had plenty of rock slides, especially on highway 101 and around San Francisco. A major road was closed for a long time.

Hwy 1 is the king of rock slides in Cali.
