Security cameras have captured the sheer force of the magnitude-7.9 earthquake in Nepal which has claimed more than 1800 lives.
Kishor Rana shared footage of the moment the quake rocked his Kathmandu guest house yesterday, flattening historic temples in nearby Darbar Square and sending an avalanche racing down Mount Everest.
Pet dogs are first to react to the tremor as it quickly builds in strength.
Walls and trees can be seen jolting as heavy pot plants are thrown from a balcony level and panicked guests run below.

April 25, 2015: Vision has emerged from Nepal reportedly of the aftermath left behind by a major earthquake.

In another clip shared by Jatinder Vohra from hotel CCTV in Nepal, the camera shakes so violently that the image is blurred.
The quake levelled buildings in the centuries-old section of the Nepalese capital, including the landmark nine-story Dharahara Tower, with shocks felt as far away as the Pakistani city of Lahore and in New Delhi, India.
As many as 250 are believed to have been inside Dharahara at the moment it was reduced to rubble.
Images of the aftermath posted to social media show the extent of the destruction as people dig through the rubble of collapsed buildings and search for survivors.
Indian tourist Devyani Pant was in a Kathmandu coffee shop with friends when "suddenly the tables started trembling and paintings on the wall fell on the ground".
"I screamed and rushed outside," she told Reuters by telephone from the capital.

"We are now collecting bodies and rushing the injured to the ambulance.
"We are being forced to pile several bodies one above the other to fit them in."
A local resident who lives near the epicenter of the quake between Kathmandu and Pokhara described the aftermath to the AP.
"Our village has been almost wiped out. Most of the houses are either buried by landslide or damaged by shaking," said Vim Tamang.
"All the villagers have gathered in the open area. We don't know what to do. We are feeling helpless."
Hospitals are quickly filling with scores of injured people, with thousands preparing to sleep outside in makeshift tents.
