Madonna Sheds Rock Mass. (Not HER, fool!)
A huge slice of rock has fallen from the Eiger mountain in the Swiss Alps in a spectacular collapse that came after days of warnings from scientists.
The rock - loosened by melting glacial ice - crashed down shortly before 8pm on Thursday, blanketing the Bernese Oberland resort of Grindelwald in a cloud of dust for hours.
Rescue chief Kurt Amacher of the Swiss Alpine Club told swissinfo that about 400,000 cubic metres of stone - or 20 per cent of the endangered rock mass - had come crashing down.
The rock broke off in sections and thundered down hundreds continued here
Or maybe its all just an inconvenient rock slide.
