This is the moment trees were uprooted and homes crushed in a massive LANDSLIDE – which left the cameraman running for his life.

Torrential rain caused landslides across south India – leaving four dead and dozens of houses destroyed.

Homes were dislodged and washed away in the coastal districts of Kerala and Karnataka.

Four people were killed in a landslide at Idukki on August 17 when their house was buried.

Houses located on a hill slope in Kannur also collapsed under the crushing weight of the moving mud and slush.

Geologists say tree felling, construction, mining and heavy rainfall have increased the likelihood of landslides.

Scientist Madhav Gadgil, who headed the Western Ghats Ecology Expert Panel, said: “Yes, there is an intense rainfall which has caused this.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
