| Description: | In a big storm; elm tree falls through roof of house in Kippington, England. Shot of tree leaning into house at 45 degree angle; very woodsy area; other trees in BG. CU of the huge tree trunk stuck into the brick building; with stones fallen away from the wall-- this is indeed some serious damage. 3 women standing under the sloping tree trunk; next to the house: these are the occupants who "miraculously escaped". They walk toward door of house; stepping over some thing not shown on screen (some branch or bricks). House with very long ladder propped up reaching up to the tree; man climbs ladder; starts to step onto roof. Wonder if they had homeowner's insurance. Accidents; destruction; damage. | |
