Reply to TIL: Frank Slide, 44 MILLION tons of rock fell in one of the largest landslides in Canadian history back in 1903. It partially buried a town and killed 70-90 people. Also, a horse, Charlie. Survived for a month underground, only to die after being overfed oats and... brandy. by chrisbe2e9

Frank Slide sounds like a great name for a comic book detective. A no-nonsense anti-hero that's not afraid of rattling a few cages to get the job done.
