No, it is not. The camera position is elevated at least 6--8 stories above the valley floor, an elevation of 20--24m or so by my estimate. Slightly below it is a concrete platform supporting a parabolic dish antenna. That platform is well above the main debris flow, catches only comparatively minor impacts, and ... is knocked flat just before the video terminates. More significantly, the three story block structure at the lower left of the frame is seen visibly displaced an instant before it is obscured by the debris flow, at about 30s into the video. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Mudslide_at_Gyirong_Port_...> We now have before/after images of the precise location of the port. THere is absolutely no indicate that structures ever existed there: <https://news.cgtn.com/news/2026-08-28/3D-imagery-reveals-pat...> From: "How do newly released 3D images explain the Gyirong mudslide?" <https://news.cgtn.com/news/2026-08-28/3D-imagery-reveals-pat...>. There is no conceivable way that this can be perceived as a minor or generally-survivable incident. | ||
