Reply to comment by DefiantStomp 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
It was 1903, most bodies were never recovered so the actual count could not be officially confirmed
