- Several apartment buildings in Pacifica, California, are in danger of falling into the ocean. The cliffs they sit on are being eaten away by waves sparked by El Niño, forcing homeowners to evacuate. John Blackstone reports.
Why would anyone feel safe living on a cliff???? Especially in California with all of the earthquakes here! 🙅 NOPE
@Tinychat News dude that's just kinda weird
Thank you wtf they thinking
It’s called. Engineering.
For a view lol
Right..I agree...but How you doin?
why the hell will u guys think its a good idea to build houses there
there motto is, "we'll cross that bridge when they build one".........
I've actually seen those buildings in person. When they were built, they were a lot further away from the ocean. You can see this sort of erosion up and down the coast. Some areas just get nailed so relentlessly by storm surges that the hard packed sandstone crumbles quickly.
Exactly....and why they are saying "it's not fare"...tell that to Mother Nature...dahh
There used to be another 10 or 20 feet if not even more in some places
+Evil Keali’i you are an idiot.
Of course the landlord is saying that the tenants have a right to stay in the apartments. He isn't thinking about their safety. He is thinking about the loss of rent money. I would love to see an update on this.
Agree. That was my thought. Selfish and greedy.
Hard to say "it's a little unfair", when you've know this was coming for years.
Well....he is Asian. Unless he's screwing others to make a cheap buck, of course it's unfair.
He only cared about making sure he got the rent money.
Then if they persist in building and living at the edge of the cliff, then the county must file a FORMAL AND LEGAL DISCLAIMER STATEMENT AND AGREEMENT THAT BOTH PARTIES MUST SIGN WITH BOTH LAWYERS FROM BOTH SIDES AS WITNESSES AND VIDEO TAPED and also copied on 3-D Matrix Memory Chip and with an archival picture showing both sides hold the formal and legal disclaimer statement that all of the residents has agreed that THEY HAVE BEEN WARNED AND HAS NO RIGHT TO COMPLAIN IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO THEM.
@@willdavis691 At what costs? At the costs of human lives? Or maybe he and his tenants has suicidal tendencies and made a plan to have an insurance claim if anything happens to them then their love ones will be the beneficiaries. $ is always the culprit, and like the old saying "just follow the money!"
Money can’t buy common sense apparently
Don’t build on the side of a cliff, especially when it’s not even made of actual rock
Good point. It should be considered illegal now by any county anywhere in the country or even anywhere in the world for that matter.

I'm sure the cliff was a lot further away when the homes were built.
There’s a story in the Christian Bible that has Jesus talking about the man who built his house on the sand as opposed to the man who built his house on the rock. Guess how that turned out.
EXACTLY!!!!!!
If your apartment ends up in the ocean, do you get your deposit back?
DJames Button iff you are still life lol
No--not even the freaking pet deposit
I doubt since it's an act of nature, out of the control of the owner.
A renter will probably be due any deposit but the owner will lose the property
The money goes down the drain.
Wise man builds house upon rock,
Foolish man builds house upon sand.
And the most extremely foolish ones are the ones that buys them build on sand
Knew someone would say that
IDK Dubai is built on sand. Engineers went into bedrock and secured the Burj Khalifa.
@@citticat2 so they went through the sand to….build on rock
@@prestongarvey7014 yep
Four years later CZcams decides to recommend this and now I'm curious af if those homes went for a swim or are still standing their ground 🤔
This is a late reply but from what i can find from google satellite is the apartments in this video were demolished but the cliff hasnt actually come out any further, so if the apartments were still there they would still be standing today.

“It’s unfair to throw residents out in a few hours”... yeah that’s cuz they are gunna die when the building falls into the sea. Wtf
The cliff was massively unstable I've seen larger and far more secure cliffs collapse overnight
Well where are the going to go? Are they providing a place for them to go??
@@lsearchw a stupid risk
Can't collect rents from a condemned building.
MissInkredable survival of the fittest. They chose to live on literally a sandy cliff lmao.
They should remove the buildings so the trash doesn’t end up in the sea
How can you wait for anybody to tell you to move out when you can see the danger right with your own eyes
That's why California is full of dumb as.... people
Never build your house on the sand!
Never build a house next to the water side
sand never washes away.. only when the developer changes his companies name and then disappears..
So all the city’s that are in the desert must evacuate their homes I guess
those are not sand if it is that house wouldve been swept a long time ago.
Nut Buster a house is built on a concrete foundation no matter what. It’s especially important for on sand and clay
Landlord still wants to collect rent I bet he doesn’t live in that building
Exactly!!
I hope he was able to get that insured when he bought it, and that it covers this type of thing. Otherwise his investment is totally worthless , now.
Right 👏
Kenneth, his point is the guy wouldn’t want to live in those conditions. He is complaining that the tenants were removed from those conditions because he will receive no rent revenue now. And btw people live at their rental properties sometimes and occupy one unit or house while renting out the others.
You think that the city that's evicting the tenants is going to forget their taxes on the building?
People who rent usually pay higher taxes than homeowners. Cities and counties tax rental property at higher rates.
People are always upset with their landlord but oblivious to the fact that it is the municipality that keeps finding new and exciting ways of digging into everyone's pocket.
4 years later wonder if that "land" is still there?
Over a period of twenty years I watched a home at the junction of Pacific Coast Highway and Chitaugua (sp) Blvd in Los Angeles. It was built on a bluff with a view of Santa Monica Bay. It was built in the late 40's or early 50's. I first saw it as a teenager in the late 50's and had a huge back yard. I began monthly trips to NAS Point Mugu in 1973 when I rejoined the Navy Reserve. I drove PCH every month for 22 years and watched the back yard palisade erode from the winter and spring rains year after year. The back yard started at over an acre. When I saw it last in 1994, the concrete patio was undermined and you could see the underside of the concrete slab. The entire house finally fell away about 1998. The man who built the house knew from the start that the land would one day erode away.
well that house had good innings. there is a price to pay for living in an awesome location. i bet the home owner found it worth every penny.
@@Herr_Flick_of_ze_Gestapo The house was built in the late 1940's to 1950's. Then it had a huge back yard. Two generations of family lived there and until they had to move out that final day, they had a spectacular view of Santa Monica Bay. Yes, they got their moneys worth.
I remembered that big white house on the bluff. Was living in LA, when they showed parts of it falling down the hill, on the evening news.
@@christophermyers3758 I had moved out of California by the time the house fell. I missed the finale.
Most people have no clue and don’t realize this isn’t where these homes started.
Why is everyone trying to blame other for their own ignorance? It’s tough situation. But not one that should be played out so poorly..
VoteForLennox 4 years later 😂
Exactly these people are fools for living in a house on the edge of a cliff that is eroding
Its not even ignorance. The people can’t afford to move. Moving = self distruction. Its like choosing between self harm or possible self harm.
@@appletherapy3492 no, people move their because it was cheap. The reason the prices were cheap was because of the situation. It's not like any of these people were living there for 20 years and all of a sudden a new situation happened where they couldn't control it

Love how the reporter stands under the cliff that might collapse at any time. Love how the landlord whines about not enough time.
Yes, I love to watch the idiocy melt in sunlight too ❣️
It’s been 7 years. I’m wondering what’s going on now
I’d rather be “homeless” than dead from being in a building that crashed into the ocean.
I'd rather be dead because life sucks
Fair enough.

I’m sooo curious how much the rent was in those places. They didn’t look that fancy, but i’m sure you’re paying for that location.
Exactly my thoughts
The first lady looked like she was on drugs
Or paying less because it was dangerous
Its city housing
@@Iceis_Phoenix drugs are expensive
Well now that CZcams put this on my recommended 4 years later I need an update on those houses 🤣
There in atlantis now
Those home owners took living life on the edge to new level
Property: Falls into ocean
Property owner: "It's free real estate"
@I can’t swim Now I see it. Took a week, but I now see it.
Nice...
I’m sure these tenants can see the land eroding for months even years, and now they’re complaining they only have a few hours of notice... where you living Hobbit Land.
Fr, either they take a swim or move out haha
What do they want! To sue the earth 😑
That's the property owner's responsibility. that landlord better have lots of insurance, covering a lot of different things, one of them is he's responsible to put his tenants up somewhere. as well as he needs to have an insurance plan that actually covered this type of natural disaster. With the real estate he owns. often people sleep good, thinking they're covered with insurance, and they only know how well they're covered when they make a claim.
They Said They Had Known, They Kept From The Truth Until It Was Undeniable
Frankly those homes should really not have been permitted that close to the edge of an unstable cliff. There used to be scrub growing on some of those cliffs also. Of course the builder has already got his money and the developer and now as usual the average person pays the price. That’s just unfair IMO. Why have permitting and required SEPA been created? Theoretically to protect people from this very thing. Is there an update on this story?
The constitution gives you the right. The problem with California is it's in every thing. If he wants to build their so what is it your money.
@@crazyprepper5400 they say that and then they have the sea encroach, that is the reason for SEPA and set backs that are put in place by the building codes. They then want the city or federal aid to continually restore an unstable cliff. They want to build there but they want someone else to pay for it when the environment cannot be stopped. Further they encroach in California and Oregon where right of way to the beach is protected by law. 🤷🏼♀️that’s IMO.
Maybe we should consider zoning laws that include “no build zones“, like along the edges of a cliff, along fault lines and flood plains since so many people have no more common sense than a turnip.
well that'd be bad for business, money is more important than people's safety
This thing should've been done looooong ago.
The title says “threat” but this looks more like a promise.
Wayne The Wolf For Real.....😳
Yes
Lol
I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night knowing my house could fall over at ANY moment
M2
Californians are smart
Word!!!! It's just sitting on the edge!!!
This was nearly 4 years ago, what has happend since?
Why do we keep putting infrastructure where we know disasters are highly likely makes no sense
I mean it sucks, but, had they NOT warned you, you'd either eventually be dead, or horribly injured and could turn around and file a lawsuit against them not warning you. This is a situation where no one can really win.
Nunya BUSINESS honestly people need to think. It’s a natural cause caused by nature nobody is making all this happen the only person you can try to sue is Mother Nature
people has to be warned about the danger of living in a house located just right at the edge of cliff? K
People are stubborn and never want to be considered in the wrong
Then if they persist in building and living at the edge of the cliff, then the county must file a FORMAL AND LEGAL DISCLAIMER STATEMENT AND AGREEMENT THAT BOTH PARTIES MUST SIGN WITH BOTH LAWYERS FROM BOTH SIDES AS WITNESSES AND VIDEO TAPED and also copied on 3-D Matrix Memory Chip and with an archival picture showing both sides hold the formal and legal disclaimer statement that all of the residents has agreed that THEY HAVE BEEN WARNED AND HAS NO RIGHT TO COMPLAIN IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO THEM.
The city is responsible for this disaster PERIOD!!!
When selfishness overcomes logic, we see individuals like these folks prefer to risk their lives and later blame than to use reason. Geesh! Probably 4 years late on this post but I’m sure some of these people are still crying foul because they were removed from a property sitting on cliff.
The people who moved there probably made the assumption that who ever built it knew what they were doing
John Redcornholio yeah that’s called poor judgment and the point point is you can’t call foul on your own decision you made
@@Bee-tj8gc the person who built it did the person who chose a place to put it didnt
I say give them their choice and late them legally sign saying they are okay with the risk
Hi, that lanscape remains me The Costa Verde in Lima, Perú before the high ways in the shore cost were built and gain to the ocean,. Now, autorithies are denying more buldings in the edge of the cliff.
Ok so if their Apartment gets swept away someone's going to complain about not being warned to move.
Tony Stark’s Malibu house has left the chat
“To throw out all the residents and tenets out in a few hours isn’t fair”... ok ok we’ll just tell the cliff to stop collapsing and wait for a few months to continue being nature! These ppl are arrogant and don’t wanna see the danger
Or they could have ordered the evacuation earlier
Ivan V it’s common sense, no one in their right mind is going to wait for someone else to tell them there’s danger when it’s clearly evident
@@ivanv754 yes we should order the evacuation before the cliff shows signs of collapsing let me just call my fortune teller
More like, he wants to keep on collecting rent as long as possible!
変態Lust uwu
“We knew that this day was going to come we just didn’t know when”
So everyone done absolutely nothing to prevent further damage.
Those rocks were installed a little too late! Had they put rocks or concrete tetrapods when those homes were built, it would've helped prevent the erosion of these cliffs. The fact that they didn't do it earlier, shows negligence.
Who is crazy enough that they want to stay there? Unfair? Uh because they didn't give you a month to find somewhere else? That is nature for you, I can look 600 ft from my house and there are 8 homes gone from a tornado a month ago.
K
So by your point of view, you are saying that it's the people's fault for not living somewhere else where tornadoes don't hit. You have made a stupid comment.
Luis Silverado the tornado situation I have nothing to do with. But as for the eroding cliff situation I have to say that tornadoes are sorta random and can happen anywhere in a large area where tornadoes happen. But eroding cliffs... well if you look at a house on a cliff by the ocean, even if the edge is 50 feet away at the time, and think that the distance won’t close then it’s not your fault... it’s no ones fault they are stupid. Water erodes land. Big waves erode land faster. Common sense is don’t live in house on cliff with water crashing into cliff sometimes. But you can say that you didn’t care and you just wanted the view but that would make it clear that it is your fault
FactsForDayz yeah keep talking. Mother Nature does strike when you least expect but there are times when you can expect it. I see clouds I think it might rain. I’m from Louisiana so if I see a coast I think erosion.
FactsForDayz I’m not saying they shouldn’t be reimbursed but it is partly their fault. I say do your own research on a place if you decide it’s a good place to stay that’s on you.
California is falling apart, both literally and figuratively
Daniel Park I’m from Chicago but I live in California now for years. It’s so many noisy, nasty, fake, racist, and jealous people here it’s disgusting. I’ve lived in a lot of different states and California has the best weather but too many low life’s and hard hearted people. Everyone wants to know what you do for a living so they know how much respect they wanna give you. If you say you work at Walmart there next question is how can you afford to live here? It’s none of your business where someone works or how there bills are getting paid. People are so jealous of each other it’s like everyone is pocket watching and they get mad if you have anything better then them. If your neighbors being cool 😎 they not, they just being noisy here.
@@stopsins7143 you're exactly right how your entire post word for word, its absolutely sad, I've literally come to realize that the same people u would normally count on do these very things, almost as if you're finding yourself alone in many situations, which actually sucks ..some people like company and friends to hang out with, that is actually very normal....

Making the tenants leave is unfair??? Your apartment is about to go over the cliff and someone has to make you evacuate? That's crazy!! You should've been gone LONG before they asked you to leave.🤔😬
There’s the owner of the building putting profits above the lives of his tenants. The government should just compensate everyone who has to move in situations like this
“It’s unfair” but it’s about to FALL OFF THE CLIFF HELLOOOO df is wrong with ppl. Yes it’s unfair that your homeless but I’m pretty sure you knew this day was coming like df

They could warn them but not FORCE them. They wana die? Let them. Freedom you know. Of course free all other parties from liability if they choose to stay.
slaiyfershin you crazy
Chances are they don’t have any sort of insurance on it if they think that it’s unfair that they’re next.
They sound like leftists.
“Unfair unfair unfair “ ummmmmmm either move or get washed away buddy lol they making it seem like they’re in control of their houses being washed away 🤦🏾♀️
🤣
Jessica Watt I’m like bruh to late for that
Well think about it California is dangerous there's homeless people and druggies everywhere. These people weren't ready to move and a lot of them don't have family members in California hotels are expensive and so are motels actually everything is extremely expensive in California so idk think about it for a sec
Jessica Watt id rather get washed away and get the best view of the ocean possible than leave my home which is washing away off the cliff because this is all ‘unfair’
I mean especially if your young that's like a big issue you could get raped or assaulted it's just a bad situation to be in and it is unfair that they now have to be in this issue but still you can't blame anyone for it because it's a natural disaster
That's so cool but sad 😔😭
Really?! You "moved in two months ago" and didn't notice the cliff face was almost gone? I have compassion for people, but not idiots.
You know if they got a problem with leaving, let them stay, when they die let the waves take em.

it’s been 3 years. i wonder that happened to these buildings. does anybody know?
I Was thinking that myself
I was about to Google Earth it. ;-)
The short answer is it looks like all houses were bulldozed and the lots are now filled with gravel and the whole thing is fenced off (Esplanade Ave, I'm assuming. If you look along the coast, you will see houses that may be lucky to have a decade left where they are... some less. There are at least two large parking lots and an RV park where 1/4 of it is fenced off due to danger of collapse. A church even lost like 90% of its parking lot.
finchois
They’re gone.
Wondering
Rather 👍
Who in their right mind would move into an apartment where the apartment is hanging on a cliff just inches from going into the water
You wanted an ocean view and this is one of the risks involved in getting such a property
These tenants along with the owner is Crazy. Saying it's unfair to move. He'll you can be in the ocean at any second. The owner should give them back there security deposit and rent.
I'm sure they're not arguing leaving the danger zone. It's more that the city is not funding their move/accommodations during the transition. In my city they paid for hotels or deposits to new apts when they widened the freeway
I can’t feel sorry for these people. Why would anyone live in such a dangerous area? It’s crazy!!
The apartments were probably so cheap that was all they could afford. They never should have been built in the first place.
@@bettiraige3474 Actually one of the most expensive rents those apts...Plus those homes around there are in the multi millions .
Well, no, nothing’s being pushed. The undermining of the ground underneath simply allows gravity to do its work, one could say they’re being “Newtonized.”
This situation took decades to develop. There are a few solutions to this problem including calcium compound injections deep into the ground and/or on cliff face, steel beam frame extensions (buy you another 5 years), those boulders placed, maybe even a biowall of plants with drip line fertilizer. But none of them beat a facing up to reality - planning on thr erosion coming year by year.
I think it's a little to late
Don't rebuild there. These people should have moved long ago.
I wouldn’t sleep even one night in one of those apartments, with the constant fear of waking up in the ocean or rather not waking up at all😂
You'd need to sleep with a life jacket just in case.
So no one is wondering how that particular woman can afford a seaside apartment?
Don't judge her off how she looks. She could very well ha e money.
Not just the ocean. Also rain draining off the cliffs.
Can understand the frustration but why'd you buy a home in such risky place in the first place?
I bet these houses were on discount price when they were bought because of the risks.
Anyways you can't stay there simple as that. I am 100% sure there's a plan for these residents.
+yoNNyyyyy REALLY!!! I heard at least 2 people say they would now be homeless. I hope there IS a plan for those people. I do not think it is fair to blame the residents for huge waves from El Nino. Sheesh!!!
Marian Foreman there shouldn’t be a plan in place for them. They took that risk.
Building houses on the Cliff and in a state that has Earthquakes IS DANGEROUS
I HOPE AND PRAY EVERYONE MAKES IT OUT SAFE
Why would people complain about moving. Would they rather fall into the ocean and die?
These cliffs have been eroding for thousands of years. It seems dumb to build anything within 100 yards on either the top or bottom of a cliff.
Few year later
Owners: Ok but I still have land right?
City: What land.
They thought "just put a slab of concrete, that's will make the sand not move" lol this was foreseen
So none of the tenets knew they would have to move. REALLY?
"We put it off as long as possible "
If you wise enough and think enough you will not build a house beside a cliff and facing the ocean. So sad though for the residents. The city council shoudnt allow in the first place to build homes nesr the coast.
“WAAAAHHHhhhh... you’re trying to protect people who aren’t smart enough to protect themselves...WAAAAHHHhhh...”

It's kind of why lazy, incompetent, arrogant, and usually impossible to fire people, get the big bucks to be city managers in the first place. And She's even s-o-o-o-o stupid, she even admitted publicly she knew that this was coming, in advance? I wonder if it dawned on her later, she incriminated herself. And What was her response to just shrug and say oh well?
How do realtors get away with selling these type of properties. Where are code enforcement etc.
Maybe don't buy a home on a cliff that gets pounded by ocean waves?
If it's inevitable then why would you buy/rent/move to a place like this?
2:55, ok stay in the house and fall off the cliff... Why are there houses on the side of a cliff, did these people not watch Wile E Coyote cartoons.

I would have planned ahead and had a motor home ready to go if you want to gamble like that.
SuTen agreed! It’s ridiculous that they expect everyone else to pick up the pieces. Like you have a job and belongings so if you do things right you won’t be homeless for long and if you were prudent like the original poster said you wouldn’t be facing homelessness at ALL.

+todd comer The people here in NJ are just as foolish. After Hurricane Sandy, you'd think they would move to safer place. But they rebuild on the same spot, with different attempts to keep house from getting destroyed by ocean.
+pete p Good point. However these people did not build these apartments. Someone else did and they were probably told that the cliff was not really a problem. In California housing is at a premium. I bet none of those people will be looking to relocate to an apartment unit on a cliff at the beach.
So many know it alls that have never even set a foot in California. Those homes were not on a cliff to begin with. Decades of erosion and global warming have decimated the coast. Have some compassion for people that are losing everything
They would better worry about their lives, not about their houses
I like how the lady for the city just admits that they were pushing it off till the last possible moment
