Mother Nature can be an absolute beauty, but she can also be a destructive force like no other. Unfortunately, she showed her ugly side last week in northern Italy, as a naturally occurring landslide plummeted not one but two massive boulders down a mountain, which absolutely decimated a 300-year-old farmhouse.

As reported by Sploid, the devastating landslide occured in Ronci Termeno, in South Tyrol, and one of the giant boulders turned the barn portion of the farmhouse into rubble, and then went on to leave a lengthy path of torn up land in its wake. Luckily, the second boulder - measuring a whopping 5,650 cubic feet - came to a stop within mere inches of the same building, which surely would've demolished the rest of the structure had it continued rolling down the cliff.

Though the landslide caused millions of dollars in damage, the good news here is that nobody was injured. A Facebook page has been set up to collect donations for the Trebo family, who lived in the farmhouse.

Check out video footage of the aftermath, which shows the full brunt of Mother Nature's unpredictable power.
