WATCH: Ocean balcony collapses leaving several people injured

House parties are well known for their destructive tendencies.

There have been many a movie showcasing the catastrophic and damaging capabilities of a house party.

But these parties are usually exaggerated and end up looking a lot worse than they tend to be in real life.

Every now and then however there is one that will make the headlines.

Recently in Malibu, California, a party almost came to a fateful end when a balcony holding 15 people came crashing down.

A video that was recorded on a security camera on the property next door captured the moment when its neighbouring balcony completely collapsed!

In the video, you can see a large group of people mingling outside and having a good time. Suddenly the floor gives away and you see the people dropdown. As it breaks away from the house it falls quite a far bit down to the dangerous terrain below.

Luckily, while many were injured during this accident, only two are having to receive treatment for critical injuries in the hospital.

Those who have had a look at the video say that these people should be very thankful that things did not turn out worse because someone could have lost their life.
