In the quaint village of Chambéry, France, a catastrophe of biblical proportions unfolded on March 13th, 1931. A colossal landslide, measuring approximately 100 acres in size, began to devour everything in its path, leaving a trail of destruction and despair in its wake. The disaster struck the villages of Chambéry at an alarming rate of 500 feet per hour, leaving the inhabitants of four villages – Oranges, and three others – with no choice but to flee for their lives.
