Mt Mannen Norway
 
Mount Mannen near Alesund is expected to collapse 'soon'. Yes, the article is from last year but recently local Norwegian sources are saying even more! cameras are now being set up to capture the landslide.

Chief geologist on site, Lars Harald Blikra said it is difficult to predict exactly when parts of the mountain tumble down, but that it is “fairly probable” that it will happen on Tuesday.
Hey it's Tuesday! where's my avalanche?:Kaleun_Mad: ...a bit ironic as 'Tiw's Day' is named for the Norse god of war...:hmmm:

Like waiting for a UFO to land in your garden to re-fuel and you wake up in the morning finding your grass has gone.


Eco UFO's run on grass you know. :03:

105 mm or recoiless rifle! your choice!!
 
^ http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/alaska-state-troopers/videos/preventative-avalanche/ I was thinkin' this too; My brother-in-law uses one (105 millimeter howitzer) at a ski resort near Park City, Utah...a little safer at this stage than getting on the hill in such a precarious position. We cannot Affjord needless Norwegian casualties!:O: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRy0RA3gsyE @ Sailor Steve the soundtrack is cool and it's your backyard! Iv'e skied right where this was filmed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jq2OUAa_mdA What a variation on 'beating your sword into a plowshare!"
