Culvert failure video

Whilst this is not strictly a landslide, the video below of the failure of a culvert makes very interesting viewing. The ability of the channelled water to erode rapidly is a lesson that is often forgotten.



The video was captured by MWTW.com photojournalist Kevyn Fowler in Freeport, Maine during a storm.
