I'm from Chile and have experienced two earthquakes over 8.0 and they were pretty terrifying, thankfully most of our buildings are made to resist those kind of quakes so there isn't much destruction compared to other countries. Tsunamis are way scarier though.

[@shastina5493]

@Benjamin V Check out the YT channel Dutchsinse. He has been forecasting the earthquakes in which I witnessed his forecasts on all the quakes that hit Chile this summer. He can give you pretty good heads up minutes if not days ahead of time. ☝️🕊

What’s worse, those massive earthquake/tsunami combos or the current Chilean government?

[@AndrewSmith-gn1nq]

The New Madrid fault is very concerning and you should’ve talked about it more. Cities like St. Louis, Memphis, Nashville, and many smaller cities and towns would be devastated. Also, many pipelines deliver gas and fuel through that area. If that were to happen again there that would cripple the Midwest and result in more deaths than any other earthquake in the US to date.

[@MyDude199]

From my understanding of the NMSZ, as a person who lived literally where the second Quake happened, it would definitely damage St Louis and Memphis, but Nashvill would not be as affected. It still cause a big shake but nothing super damaging, the biggest concern is all the bridges on the mississippi. MAny of those would be knocked out, especially near the fault which is a major throughfare, there is also almost no ferries or infastructre for it so if those bridges go down a massive economic collapse could happen with goods. Some other major worries is Barkley Dam. While Kentucky Dam is well protected from earthquakes, spefically being built with earthquakes in mind. Barkley dam does not have the same protections, so esentially that will be a major point of failure and could cause massive flood damage to Paducah and a few other towns on the river. There is also the fact if either of those dams are destoryed power supply would be majorly screwd for a large swatch of Kentucky and Tennessee. Yeah NMSZ is scary.

[@SavageBunnyGetMoney]

It could also hit Louisville KY which is worrying for me I hate how this video focuses on the West Coast yeah the New Madrid Fault line would be a problem in the Midwest

An earthquake? Nah. A super volcano eruption triggered by an earthquake? Yeah.

[@0nlyCupc4kK3]

Uh, Yellowstone is not overdue for an eruption. ... The rhyolite magma chamber beneath Yellowstone is only 5-15% molten (the rest is solidified but still hot), so it is unclear if there is even enough magma beneath the caldera to feed an eruption. If Yellowstone does erupt again, it need not be a large eruption.

[@garetclaborn]

psch we are using the imperial system, which is not obsolete and is in active use in many fields. lots of europeans don't *like* that so they cry about it and talk crap but it's a perfectly fine system. the fact is that most countries retain their colloquial system of measurement *along with SI units*. without america's support for SI, metric would be dead. we teach both, perhaps europeans aren't smart enough to handle a measurement which is focused on using multiple logarithms, but this is algorithmically superior to metric's single logarithm system. it's easier for lesser humans to just use 1 though. it just surprises me since we can teach our children about it without even explaining what a logarithm is to them, but i guess europe is just... well u know.

[@scottbrenham1341]

I looked up the major fault lines of the world globe Italy is near one. only the west coast of the USA has the biggest fault lines that fault line also runs through west coast of south America and along the coast of Canada into Alaska The east coast is much farther away closer to what is the center between Europe and Africa. Plus other areas. Major earthquakes are starting to happen now.

I live in Southern California and am studying geology and seismology in college. This video is very accurate! We actually have earthquakes everyday, but most are too small to feel. We did have one last week that I did feel and on earlier in the year that was only 8 miles from my house so I felt it pretty good. The big one is coming. Best to prepare now than later.

[@riinak7212]

It's decently accurate but they didn't mention the fault in upstate New York, or the quakes in South Carolina and New England. They also mispronounced New MAD-rid and failed to mention there were a series of *three* earthquakes during the winter 1811-1812.

The Richter Magnitude Scale is not limited to levels 0-10 but can go beyond 10 (very unlikely though).

[@j.d.schultz1453]

Razer 0901 the asteroid that created the chicxulub crater 66 million years ago in what is today Mexico produced a magnitude 13 earthquake. The impact site was shallow water at the time and produced tsunamis of up to 330 feet. Had the same asteroid hit the Pacific Ocean instead of the Gulf of Mexico, the tsunami would have been 15,000 feet tall in stead of 330. However, the asteroid was 6-10 miles in diameter and tsunamis would be the least of your worries.

Razer 0901 Richter magnitude hasn’t been used in quite some time.

I was in a 7.0 in Seattle in 2001.

[@christinab.2864]

Did that Seattle earthquake came from mt. Rainer (I could be spelling it wrong) volcano?

[@AtarahDerek]

I was watching another video that said a similarly sized quake along the Seattle fault (which runs across Puget Sound from the Olympic peninsula through downtown Seattle) could trigger landslides that in turn cause very damaging local tsunamis. Seattle would actually be shielded from the most intense of both seismic and tsunami waves that come with an M9 Cascadia quake, and subsequently would escape the worst of the damage from such a tremor. Which makes an M7 along the Seattle fault potentially more devastating for the city. But said Seattle fault quake could be triggered by the Cascadia quake.

[@bewwybabe8045]

*when you live on the SoCal coast* We just had our "Californian Shakeout" earthquake drill a few weeks ago. The threat is real

[@fritsstal440]

I grew up in Pasadena in the 80s/90s and we didn't have the Shakeout back then, but we definitely had regular earthquake drills and got under our desks at school. I live in Seattle now and we have a Shakeout here too, but people don't take it as seriously here because quakes are much less frequent. We're due for a huge quake on the Cascadia Subduction Zone though so hopefully these people will start paying attention!!

I have experienced some 8-10 strong earthquakes myself, I’m from Mexico and live in Mexico City, the one that happened last September was one of the strongest ones I’ve ever felt. I’m also part of a rescue team and we were very active during the aftermath of the earthquake. Some tips from someone with training and with experience with earthquakes are: 1)Most important rule: never panic, always be calm and follow instructions 2)If you can’t evacuate a building in less than 20 seconds then don’t, find a compact room or look for structural walls and stay there in a safe position 3)don’t use the stairs, most of the corpses found in fallen buildings are located were the stairs were 4)don’t make phone calls, after an earthquake, most of the phone are collapsed or saturated, also emergency services are working, it is more recommendable to use instants message apps like WhatsApp, line, messenger, messages, etc 5)If you see that the building you’re in has transversal rifts on the structural walls, evacuate immediately and in order, it’s very likely that the structure will collapse and 6)if you can’t evacuate go for the top floors, it’s better to have just one floor over you than seven or eight.

I experienced the 2001 Nisqually Quake in Washington State when I was in the US Navy stationed at Naval Station Everett north of Seattle. It definitely got our attention. One city that you didn't mention that sits directly on a large fault line is Seattle itself. There is a fault line that runs east from the juncture of I-5 and I-90 and is also due for a big earthquake, though not of the magnitude of the Cascadia Subduction Zone.

The sunshine state is florida, california is the golden state!!!

[@scottweisenberg859]

It should be noted that the earthquake scale is not a linear relationship and is actually a logrithmic relationship so the difference of energy betweeen a mag 4 and 5 is not the same as a difference between an 8 and 9

I experienced the 2001 Nisqually Quake in Washington State when I was in the US Navy stationed up the coast in Everett, WA. It certainly got my attention.

[@DanZam9]

I recently experience my first earthquake yesterday. A 4.0 hit the Willamette Valley here in Oregon.

[@anniep2837]

Ik!

[@hut_duarte2611]

That's nothing tho

[@nasserbnayyan9620]

I live in Los angles and I never experienced an earthquake.. !! I don't want to experience a 8.0 quake!!!

[@AtarahDerek]

The odds of you experiencing a given fault line's biggest quake in your lifetime are quite small. Higher in subduction zones such as Cascadia, but still pretty slim. The San Andreas generally produces M5 to M7 quakes, which can still do a lot of damage.

[@zeffery101]

how long have you lived in LA? I mean its been quiet for the last few years but my cousins about 30 mins east of LA had a 5.5 four years ago or so

[@rblsant]

Until 2day

[@maxmitchell5181]

So close to one million! Precongrats

I lived through the 1989 Loma Prieta Quake. I was out near the Russian Cathedral (about half a mile from the ocean), and the ground was moving enough that I couldn't keep my footing. It was weird to hear windows breaking and buildings shaking, while the cathedral was just sitting there, not shaking or anything. Our section of SF (Civic Center) had a blackout for three days, and I remember a couple of homeless guys trying to direct traffic til the cops got there (even the traffic lights were out for the whole three days). I think my mum in Michigan was more scared than I was since TV there kept showing the fire in the Marina Dostrict and the overpass in Oakland. We actually got off pretty well compared to Oakland where 42 people died when the upper section of an overpass collapsed onto a lower section. SF had fewer than a dozen deaths all told--the worst damage seemed to be in Monterey and Santa Cruz. I came home to find that my neighbor had furniture overturned in the temblor but when I checked my apartment, everything was exactly as I'd left it including several cans of cat food piled up on the kitchen counter, which just shows you how weird earthquake effects can be.

As Chilean I remember the 2010 (both in that year), 2011, 2012, 2015 and the last one from April 24th this year in my zone, Valparaíso. Also, the dozens to thousands of aftershocks depending of the scale of the quake. The 2010 quake have perceptible aftershocks for 2 months and additional main quakes for 1-2 years.

[@FutHDChannel]

you miss the 2014 earthquake (8.3) in Iquique

[@EduardoEscarez]

I should have wrote "experienced". I live in Valparaíso :P

[@symple6854]

Eduardo Escarez Look at my name

[@fatcookie73]

Almost 1 million Good job guys

[@grod713]

The Loma Prieta Earthquake is also called the World Series Earthquake because it happened right before game 3 of the 1989 World Series which was between Oakland and San Francisco which is where the quake happened

[@1makofish]

Tiger Stud26 The epicenter was near Santa Cruz, in Aptos.

[@isaachernandez1175]

When the “Big One” hits California will Arizona feel it?

[@meijelly]

that's what I'm wondering O:

[@mamathecockatiel3659]

Yes since its near
