    Mudslides are a thing that many people not living in mountainous terrain simply don’t realize exists.

    The word “mudslide” also kinda hides the nuance that those contain stones.

        Landslides have bigger “chunks” in them and each individual point in a landslide moves a smaller distance than mudslides which are much finer and “flow” almost like an extremely oversized river, just made of mud.
