This farmhouse in northern Italy narrowly escaped total destruction by an enormous boulder. The massive slab of rock barrelled through the countryside during a Jan. 21 landslide near the village of Ronchi di Termeno. Luckily, no one was hurt.

The giant rock destroyed the house's barn before coming to a stop in the vineyard. However, it could have been way worse...

A second boulder came to a halt a mere foot from the house. Whoa.
