Falls consist in a movement of material whose detachment from a steep slope such as a cliff or a fault scarp is followed by a free fall movement on air, for at least part of their trajectory, downward to the foot of the slope. The most frequent fall landslides affect scarp made of rocks (carbonate and crystalline) whose weakness planes are both primary (bedding planes) and secondary (mainly tectonic stress or metamorphic horizons)

Falls consist in a movement of material whose detachment from a steep
slope such as a cliff or a fault scarp is followed by a free fall movement on
air, for at least part of their trajectory, downward to the foot of the slope. After the main impact of the material on the slope foot, the movement can proceed as a free fall, roll, bounce, slide or flow onto the slopes before, depending on the geo-mechanical properties of the falling material and the elastic properties of the impact plane, the latter depending on: mechanical properties of the outcropping rocks or surface deposits; topographic features (steepness and aspect); presence and type of vegetation coverage. On a micro-scale the detachment phase is very similar to a typical rock slide phenomena, as the rupture of the rocks is produced by a non- vertical component of the gravitational stress, so that the form of the initial failure surface can be planar, wedge, stepped and less frequently vertical. One of the characterizing elements of the fall movements is the possibility that the material involved in the landsliding can change its mechanical properties due to the intermediate impacts on the slope surface, before it reaches the base of the slope. This trend is typical for irregular longitude topographic profile of the slope A typical fall front is characterized by a scar area, the detachment surface, a track zone, along which the material involved in the deformation has travelled, and an accumulation areas, where the landslide debris has stopped. By delimiting the accumulation zone and the landslide scar, a run out angle and distance can be measured. The most frequent fall landslides affect scarp made of rocks (carbonate and crystalline) whose weakness planes are both primary (bedding planes) and secondary (mainly tectonic stress or metamorphic horizons), the latter having acted after their deposition or solidification. Specific conditions are those observed in the moraine fronts, where the erosion bring to outcrop on a steep front an unsorted and chaotic glacial deposit, where large block and boulders are dispersed in a matrix of medium-fine debris easily erodible by runoff waters.
