This is the terrifying moment a massive landslide hit Beijing, blocking a hill road last Saturday (August 11).

The clip shows a huge section of the mountainside suddenly collapsing onto the road beneath.

Just ten minutes before the landslide, a man who recognised the warning signs stopped 15 vehicles from going forward, preventing any casualties.

The road has been completely blocked and the maintenance workers are cleaning it up, reports said.

No more details were known.
