Swiss village of Brienz told to flee imminent monster rockslide

And now the rockslide has come ....

Pretty close.

Would you move there?
 
Lucky?

The picturesque mountainside community has been evacuated since May 12, as residents waited anxiously for the rock slide that geologists warned was imminent.

But when an estimated 1.2 to 1.5 million cubic metres of rock finally broke away overnight Thursday and tumbled down the mountainside, it stopped just at the edge of the local school house, leaving the village unscathed.


And what if there is more to come?
