Wow!

Scary, i walk on Saltburn beach quite often and always steer clear of the cliffs because you never know when the next collapse or shift will happen.
 
There always pictures doing the rounds of people stood right on the edge up there. Also lot of of people walk along that beach from Burton Bradstock to West Bay a low tide in the summer. Lucky nobody was around. Coastal footpath will probably be getting another re-route.
 
The cliffs at Saltburn and West Bay are very similar in geological terms and you would expect similar reactions from them. Collapses can happen at any time, in essence
