Finneidfjord[3] is a small village in Hemnes Municipality in Nordland county, Norway.

[1] On the night from the 19th to the 20th June 1996, around 0h30, a large quick clay landslide took place in Finneidfjord.

[5] NRK came back to Finneidfjord 20 years later, interviewed people who were involved in the landslide and wrote an article to commemorate the disaster.

It remains unknown if blasting explosions for the building of a new tunnel in E6 have played a role in this landslide.

Quick clay is normally solid but can become fluid and form landslides when under pressure or otherwise disturbed.
