A video of the horrifying incident has shocked social media users. A group of tourists narrowly escaped death when part of a 150-foot cliff in West Dorset Bay, UK, collapsed. The incident was captured in a video that quickly gained attention on social media.
Dorset Council even shared the video on their Twitter account, highlighting the possibility of falling rocks and landslides at any time. The council has temporarily closed the South West Coast Road above the cliffs as a safety measure. Bathers discovered the cliff was collapsing and managed to reach safety in time.
The video shows a man in an orange T-shirt taking a photo of the World Heritage Site as small rocks begin to fall. In the end, a large part of the cliff broke off and fell into the sea, the lives of those present were preserved as they watched the debris plunge into the water.
Social media users expressed shock at the incident, with some expressing disappointment that people ignored the warning signs. The cliffs, known as the Golden Gate of the Jurassic Coast, are a dangerous area that stretches for miles. This incident is a reminder of the potential dangers posed by these cliffs.
