A house which had been able to survive the horrifying LA wildfires has since been split in two by a second natural disaster.
The star-studded city of Los Angeles has been facing a reckoning over the past couple of weeks, as multiple deadly blazes rampage through various neighbourhoods - including the famous Sunset Boulevard.
Several fires have since been brought under control by emergency responders, with only the Eaton and Palisades blazes not contained.
A report from CBS news estimates that at least 27 people have been killed in the wildfires, with 12,000 structures destroyed and 60 square miles of land charred.

The Palisades blaze, which covers the upscale, celebrity neighbourhood of Pacific Palisades, is the largest of the wildfires and has caused devastation to around 5,300 properties in the area.
Authorities across the city are working to gain a full understanding of the damage caused, while residents anxiously wait for news on what has become of their homes.
However, it seems that even the houses which have survived the blazes aren't yet out of the woods.
In perhaps one of the cruelest twists of mother nature, a house which narrowly survived the Palisades blaze has now been split in two by a devastating landslide.
The one bedroom $2 million (£1.6 million) home had stunning ocean views and beachfront access has now been deemed unliveable. It's believed that a landslide from an above property caused the irreparable damage.
Local outlet KCAL News were able to track down the home's owner, a man named Stephen Edwards, who revealed that he'd also lost his family home in the blaze.
"It was so magical that place, we're really just sad about it," he said.
Explaining the difficulties of rebuilding the home, Edwards added: "To be able to live there and build a new house on the hillside, with how difficult it is now, it will be a very difficult road."
Mark Pestrella, Director of the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works, previously spoke about the risk of landslides following the wildfires on Thursday morning.
"A warning to all those residents no matter where you live in LA County: if you have slopes behind your homes or if you're located on top of a slope, these slopes have become fragile," he said.
"The soil supporting your home has all become fragile due to the events we've had, winds included."
Pestrella continued: "There are mud and debris flow hazards that are existing even when it's not raining so we want people to be very careful."
