La Jument. I remember those pictures. Nice to know what its called.
I don't think it's a common thing, even with waves like that. I was reading up on some of this and the story of the Eddystone Lighthouse involves storm damage to some of the lighthouses that have stood there. (according to information, they're on #4, but this one has been up for more than a century. Although I've never seen a story about a modern, active lighthouse giving in to the waves, I don't think I can say it never happened.

Today I had my brother for a visit, He drives forklifts so I showed it to him. He thinks it's fake. If all is build up correct they should easily stand if a forklift hits the pellet storeys. In fact the boxes looks empty too.

I agree that many of the boxes seems quite "airy" maybe empty when they fall, if being bottles of Cognac.
