"You hear the creaking, the snapping sounds of the wood. And then just in a matter of seconds, the house fell down onto its pilings," Byrne said, recapping the moment. "It’s now the eighth one to add to this field of debris that’s now growing."
Dozens of people gathered on the beach to watch the house sway in and out of the ocean, pushing up against another house in the background.

Piles of debris littered the beach from other collapsed houses.
"It's unreal. I'm actually speechless, and it's really, really sad what's happening to this community, to these homes," Adrianne, who lives in Buxton, told Byrne. "People have spent their entire lives vacationing here. It really is paradise, but there's always a price to pay."
While Byrne was speaking to Adrianne, the first story of the home collapsed into the ocean and a large wave splashed up onto the beach, carrying the home with it.
