The dramatic moment a huge chunk of 150ft tall cliffs comes crashing down on a beach is caught on video.
The footage shows more than 1,000 tonnes of ancient rock suddenly collapsing in two stages at West Bay in Dorset.
The rockfall happens seconds after a 'little puff of dust' is seen coming from the middle of the sandstone cliff just as it is about to crumble.
Moments later a 150ft tall stack falls away and slumps on to the beach.
The fall immediately weakens the neighbour rock buttress which then goes the same way.
The footage was shot at 10.53am on January 18.

In Goa, India the cliffs are made from a type of 'coral stone' looks like pumice. It comes off the land in huge quite even slices and when fallen the people use it to build houses as it is quite easy to chop up given it's structure. I watched a man one day being delivered a truck load of raw stone and sitting on his haunches with a sort of axe he chopped it all into almost identical sized blocks, no measurements. Fascinating to watch.

What I find staggering is how efficiently the Sea washes away the debris! When I've flown the drone round these Jurassic coast cliff falls just one year later, after the Winter storms, the beach has effectively re-opened itself!! The frequency of these collapses have been on the increase in recent years along the Jurassic Coast, due to the increased rainfall and subsequent drying out. It's just not worth the risk walking along the beaches beneath these cliffs IMO... I send the drone in instead! A detailed 'before and after' Cinematic film can be found on my Channel. (Sorry for the plug.. 🙄)
