Reply to comment by mattyondubs in TIL: Frank Slide, 44 MILLION tons of rock fell in one of the largest landslides in Canadian history back in 1903. It partially buried a town and killed 70-90 people. Also, a horse, Charlie. Survived for a month underground, only to die after being overfed oats and... brandy. by chrisbe2e9

Didn’t they know who lived there? I may be over estimating the knowledge everyone had the at the time

There was a transient camp of 50ish people at the bottom and they had no idea how many had “moved on” at the time of the slide. (It’s in the article-do not be impressed, I almost never read the article)

Same is true for now.
