Landslide in northern Norway, 3rd of June 2020 Part of northern Norway just washed out to sea. - “I had just made two sandwiches when I heard creaking. At first I thought there was someone in the attic, but then I looked out the window and saw the power lines ripping and the ground moving,” says Jan Egil Bakkeby. He then ran out of house to higher ground, where the video was taken. The house he and his wife owned was not a permanent home but a cottage/holiday house. Thankfully they had insurance. All emergency services were sent to the area, and rescue boats and helicopters searched the area for survivors. There are no reports of injuries or missing persons at this time, however one dog that was taken by the landslide managed to swim to shore on its own.

The postman coming back from vacation will be confused as hell.

"Thankfully they had insurance."

Yeah. Had insurance for man made fire (unless it's not negligence, and the arsonist is not caught yet), meteor showers from november to february /leap day does not count/, changing of the magnetic poles of Earth (only on Tuesdays, by Virgin Islands central time), and accidental water spills, if proven, and not causing damage over 50 Norwegian krones. Landslides? Nooope.

They are not the Silversteinsson family..

"When I wished for a boat house, this is NOT what I had in mind!" lamented, Sven, as he floated away, never to be seen again.

Look at the plus side. No more mortgage payment and now the neighbors live right on the coast. Win win...

@APieceOFGarbage If only that would be the case. The moment the estate perishes, the loan is due to be paid back at once and for full, with the additional fees f.e. for breaking the terms. That's the starting point you have to negotiate with the main creditor..
