Brazilian landslide of 2011

This is an image of a major disaster that occured January 2011 in Brazil -- a landslide.

Major precipitation that occured the night prior triggered some of the deadliest landslides in Brazilian history. Many peoples homes were destroyed, their cars were lifted by the landslide, and crushed into other things. The death toll continuously climbed, and millions were left without parents, children, and family members. Thousands of civilians were lost in the landslide, buried alive or brutally murdered by mother nature. This costed the country billions to recover.
