The walking trail is in complete ruins.

Even the wooden railing has been smashed to pieces, as if it took a direct hit from a bomb.

This happened at a park in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, United States.

Recently, a massive boulder weighing a staggering 80 tons suddenly crashed down.

Fortunately, no one was injured.

This gigantic boulder was a famous landmark in the park because it looked as though it were suspended in mid-air.

Experts have suggested that the foundation supporting the boulder may have weakened over a long period due to rain, wind, and the cycles of freezing and thawing.
