A landslide that nearly crushed cars along Malibu Canyon Road Wednesday morning was captured on video by a motorist in a Tesla. 

The terrifying footage obtained by KTLA shows the dirt and rocks nearly burying one driver.

The video was recorded as several motorists were passing through the canyon near Piuma Road around 7:30 a.m.

The Los Angeles County Fire Department later posted images on X, formerly Twitter, showing large boulders and dirt that completely covered the roadway.
