(NBC) — A massive cliff fell on Michigan’s Lake Superior. Drone video captured Monday’s collapse at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore.

A group of kayakers narrowly avoided being crushed when the large section of the cliff suddenly collapsed while they toured the scenic area. The group of 18 managed to escape without a single injury but couldn't believe what they saw.

Park officials warning there's little anyone can do to avoid the destructive power of Mother Nature.
