"We have lost our village, but we have not lost our heart." Devastating scene unfolds as glacier collapse buries small Swiss village in mud and rock: 'The unimaginable has happened' first appeared on The Cool Down.

The search for a 64-year-old man was suspended on Thursday after a huge mass of rock and ice from a glacier crashed down a Swiss mountainside the day before.

The Birch Glacier above the village of Blatten collapsed and caused a landslide that has buried most of the village. Authorities had evacuated residents earlier this month, but one person is missing.
