Video cameras caught this startling scene in Mumbai Sunday, when a balcony collapsed from a house where people were watching the Ganesha immersion procession.

The Times of India reports that the accident happened in Bharatmata area where devotees were trying to get a glimpse of the elephant god of the famous Lalbaugcha Raja mandal.

The 11-day religious festival has had heavy security this year as one of the celebratory days fell on the 9/11 anniversary, and also given the recent attacks on Mumbai and Delhi.

The overcrowded balcony collapse resulted in one death and six people injured.
