Good question, eleanoryk. How did they know this was going to happen? Maybe it's fake? Looks real, though, but then I wouldn't know what to look for to verify its legitimacy.
I just watched thisvid on a show on the discovery channel: heavy rains had caused landslides around and this was a mountain road closed because of the danger. they were just waiting really.
This is an excellent example of the geologic process of mass wasting, in which soil saturated by rainfall turns into soup which almost pours off the hillside. The lack of video vibration is because there is very little tremor caused by the event. It's regularly anticipated on steep slopes after too much rain; hence the lights--they knew it was coming. This event was recorded, among others, in Japan, but similar events occur globally, including California. Beware hard rain!
There were lots of tress, which roots could provide firm soil grip. But somehow, why did this landslide happen? There must have been something built up there. A water treatment pond, maybe?
HI Me and some teatchers are making a documentarie about the ambiental situation, like the Al Gore's movie, but looking by a more philosofical side, so than i was searching scenes on youtube and saw your's movie, and would ask you to send for the e-mail j-o-a-h@hot...(haves a espace on it please backspace it) and help us. Thank you very much Joah
ok... that was so sudden. and I`m afraid of any kind of natural disaster (thank god where I live we don`t have any), so if I were there I would freak out, than faint, than die of a heart attack probably! that was a joke n¡but really I would PANIC and freak out if I were there
What is that thing that comes spiraling down before anything happens? It's at about 6 seconds into the video. On the right near where the road is blocked.
they were ready for it; that's why the road is blocked off. that's also why somebody was there filming. probably they are pretty good at detecting certain types of these based on the fact that the face of the hill is sliding off of the effin mountain! others, i'm sure, happen totally unexpectedly.
therefore, it's fake! and so is every other video, for that matter, because i'm not really there to verify that it happened.
MoebiusStrip you might have seen this clip b4 and it might be one year old to you, but its not even a day old to many of us, so chill. Nice clip weather fake or Real
If you listen carefully--a second or two before the power lines start sliding--you can hear the wires being pulled taut. It sounds like a series of tapping sounds, but if you over-tightened a guitar's strings it would sound almost the same.
Yep. This one is for reals. The blue screen in the beginning is listing the road. (National Road, route 168). I live in Japan, and I must say that this does not suprise me at all, as this happens with bizarre regularity.
... The lighting is also very unrealistic and studio-like. It certainly doesn't come from the sun. But simulating a landslide with a mock-up for such a low quality movie would really make no sense (though here in Hungary they sometimes do for local soap operas).
For the first time it looked such an obvious fake that when I saw these trees falling onto one another it looked so lame that it made me laugh loud. Then I browsed through the comments and that made me think if it's possibly not a fake after all. Anyhow, so far as I know nature's forces I expected some bigger disaster, which wouldn't let a camera stand completely still while it's unleashing it's power. ...
It's not fake. I live in Japan and hear news about land slide like 10 times every year. Some sliding happens by earth quake and some by typhoon (or heavy raining). Many people lose their lives getting caught in these land slide. Either they get their houses crashing on them or their cars getting burried in the dirt while driving. Some get hit directly by rocks. It's a miracle how we've gotten this far.

How do you explain the stillness of the video? If it were handheld, the frame would be all over the place as the person would be moving. A lot. If it were mounted on a stand, the ground would be tremoring pretty violently.
This is a fake, there would have been far more dust and more loud *BANG*'s if it were real, the loudest thing i heard was what sounded like the crinkle of plastic.
Yeah, alright, it makes sense - they spent hundreds, possibly thousands of dollars and dozens of man-hours making a really low quality video of a landslide in Japan, just so they could post it on YouTube. Right. Yeah. LOL.. Doesn't -anyone- practise critical thinking anymore?
I am a sound engineer. I can say with one hundred percent certainty that there is absolutely no way you can verify the veracity of this video by the audio - given that it is a low quality video, possibly already compressed before the Flash-Video compression that takes place when you upload to youtube. To me everything on youtube sounds like plastic crinkling. Once again, the sound is a poor reference. Try using your common sense instead.
What blue background? and how would they get the permit to destroy all those trees, that road for just a movie. if that was a set, god it woulda cost a fourtune to set it up with all those trees and all.. it woulda been easier to just Comp Generate it.
