Huge cliff crack threatens luxury mansion at same Texas lake spot where another unstable vacation house had to be burnt down last year

A huge crack in a cliff is threatening a luxury mansion at the same Texas spot where another vacation house had to be burnt down last year because it was so unstable.

There are now concerns that this home in a gated community could also collapse and crumble into Lake Whitney about 60 miles south of Fort Worth.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers told NBC says it is 'very concerned with public safety' in light of the new crack.

Neighbor Steve Mellgren told WFAA: 'It's getting larger... it's getting wider... it's getting deeper.'

He said recent rains have seen the crack open even further.

'If it does happen... if anybody's near this cliff... it's going to be a problem for them,' he said. 'Could be loss of life.'
