Dramatic pictures have been released showing the destruction wrought by a huge boulder that smashed through a farm in Northern Italy after being dislodged by a landslide.

The massive rock narrowly missed a farm house, destroyed a barn, and stopped in a vineyard at the property in Ronchi di Termeno.

A second giant boulder detached during the landslide stopped behind the house.

The family living there was unharmed in the incident, on 21 January.

awesome pictures. The house must be pretty sturdy for the rest of it to remain standing like that and no one to be injured. Also look at where the second builder stopped, just before the main house.

I wonder if they will rebuild and continue to live there, or if this will scare them off.
