October 9, 1963

The landslide that fell off at 22:39 from the northern slopes of Mount Toc hurtling into the reservoir below had gigantic dimensions. The impact force of the landslide created a wave, pushing east toward the center of Vajont that at that point spreads. This allowed the tide to lower its level and save for a few meters, the village of Erto and Casso but struck with unprecedented violence Longarone.
