This is the terrifying moment an entire hillside collapsed at a quarry in Thailand.

Several trucks were loading boulders into their containers when the land suddenly gave way in Nakhon Ratchasima, northeast Thailand, on March 8.

Footage shows how the 30-metre tall cliff along with several trees crashed to the ground in a cloud of dust.

Drivers quickly reversed to escape from the path of the flying debris. However, it was all cleaned up and secured afterwards.

Truck driver Somsak, who recorded the landslide, said: ‘This was a close call. If the earth landed on anybody’s car they would have been killed. These are some of the dangers of working in quarries.'
