Jahn Martin and Brad Gustafson, along with two other passengers, were on a pontoon boat in the area between Miner’s Beach and Mosquito Beach at Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore on Michigan’s Upper Peninsula last week when a 200-foot cliff face collapsed and slid into Lake Superior. The resulting waves put the boaters into panic mode, but everyone came out unscathed.

Why didn’t Brad back up? He explains in the video below.

Two years ago, a pair of Minnesota photographers happened to be shooting aerial footage when a similar collapse occurred.
