More than 30 people have been killed in devastating floods which have rocked South Africa's coastal city of Durban.<br /><br />The city has also seen extensive damage to property and roads due to the flooding and mudslides caused by 150mm (6 inches) in a 12-hour period. The city usually receives 90mm (3.5 inches) for the whole of April.<br /><br />The footage shot on April 22 shows the filmer walking up to an enormous hole in the road which has collapsed underneath a house. As the camera moves towards the sink-hole the filmer gasps in shock, "A whole house guys, its gone!". She also exclaims "There's cars inside!". <br /><br />As the filmer walks closer to the hole, this shocking footage reveals the debris of an entire house in a pile of rubble with cars sitting on top of it. The road on which the filmer stands is also completely decimated as the ground underneath it has simply washed away. <br /><br />As rescue crew continue to dig for survivors in response to over 2,000 emergency calls, the death toll is expected to rise.
