Yep. Its a trip. During the Northridge quake, we would wait for aftershocks by watching the news. Their studios were much closer to the quakes then we were at that time, so we'd see them react, and about 15 seconds later, we'd feel them.

[@InternetJury]

@@chrissaenz6213 No, it wasn't... the epicenter was actually a little east of there between Ridgecrest and Trona. Some giant cracks opened up in the earth and the road out that way needed to be repaired. There was still plenty of damage, but not nearly as much as there could have been. I know, I live in the general area and at the time worked as an insurance inspector. I saw a LOT of the apartments and motels in Ridegcrest, and many of them needed some form of repair. There were fires and gas leaks all over the area, and people were without power (in the middle of summer in the Mojave desert) for quite a while. Those two quakes cause billions in damage, but it was still relatively minor when you consider the magnitude of both quakes.... but not unscathed by any means.

[@sherimatukonis6016]

What's interesting about earthquakes is that the number attached to it really doesnt mean much as far as whats felt or damages. The same size quake can be much different depending on the ground structure, depth, distance and type of quake. Some 7's are relatively minor like this and some are catastrophic like Turkey. Both were 7 ish.

[@goodkrypollo1706]

You also have to factor in that a third world country like Turkey is going to have a poor infrastructure, not capable have handling quakes. In contrast to first world countries.

It was 7.8 in turkey. So 5 times stronger than this.

[@kilodeltaeight]

What you're describing is *intensity*, which is how much an earthquake is felt at a given location; versus its *Magnitude*, which is how much energy the earthquake released - and there are different scales for both! The latter is measured in the modern era as "Moment Magnitude" - though many often reference the "Richter scale," which is _technically_ measuring a different kind of Magnitude than MMI, but the numbers all conveniently line up so Meh - while the former is measured according to the Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) scale. Magnitude is always a single, objective number, with an increase of 1 on the scale equating to roughly 33x more energy: If a Magnitude 3 earthquake is roughly ~4,000lbs of TNT, then a Magnitude 4 is ~133,000lbs of TNT. This is also why the difference between a 6.4 and a 7.1 is so massive, despite being "only" a 0.7 difference in Magnitude. Intensity, like you said, varies a lot depending on distance from the fault, the geology of the ground the quake is traveling through, and the structure you're in. There's a lot of variation, and it's not entirely objective! For example, someone on the top floor of a skyscraper in a "mild" quake might find themselves being thrown a few feet by the swaying of the building while the ground floor barely moves at all. A house on bedrock may only have mild shaking for a few seconds, while a house on silty fill in a basin would feel shaking for minutes (Looking at you, LA). This is a big reason USGS collects "Did you feel it" data - it helps them better understand how different faults and energy levels transmit through different areas, which is an important part of planning for earthquakes in the first place, along with alerting people when they're about to happen.

[@sherimatukonis6016]

@kilodeltaeight I'm aware of all that... I just said I found it fascinating. Thankfully, for being smack in the middle of the Cascadia Subduction Zone, I happen to be in a spot with all the least affected factors... BUT the house was built on a Boulder style foundation in 1916. And new foundations cost more than the house did when I bought it.... it'll be interesting to see what happens when it finally let's it rip.

If you're ever in an earthquake please be aware of your surroundings. It never ceases to amaze me how most people do the exact opposite of what you're supposed to in an earthquake. Living in California, as little kids in school we were taught : - Stay calm. - Do NOT run outside. You risk falling debris, fallen power lines, etc... - Get underneath something sturdy, crouch on the floor, tuck your head and protect your head/neck using your hands. - Stand in a sturdy doorway. They are structurally strong areas.

[@guardianoftheduat]

No don't stand in a doorway that's how ppl die also unless u live in a city if u can run outside do it

[@u4riahsc]

When the Northridge quake hit I was out on Catalina and it woke me up. My ex who had never felt an earthquake jumped up and ran outside. He came back in after it was over and asked what “should I do?” I told him to go back to sleep and don’t run outside next time.

[@eh1702]

This might have been good advice for California at the time you were a kid, but it would have get hundreds of thousands more people killed in other countries - like in Turkey or rural China. And it’s actually not that great for earthquake-prone places like California and Japan in the 21st century, where most buildings are designed to not need you to block the doorway, and where the main hazard is furniture & ceiling falls and fires caused by cooking gas.

The second one reached Vegas! I was chilling in an Olive Garden when it hit. Granted, Vegas was so far that I thought at first it was just like a muscle twitching or something, then I noticed the chandelier was swaying slightly. It was super mild in Vegas, but we felt it!

[@TS-ef2gv]

I live about 100 miles away from Ridgecrest, and it felt as strong here as it looks in the videos. I had just gone through a drive through to get myself and my pup some food. We were pulled over in the lot as I unwrapped her hamburger patty while she sat on the passenger seat staring intently at it like "Hurry up human, I'm hungry", when the car started bouncing like the vehicles in the videos. At first I thought some crazy street person was jumping up and down on the rear bumper, but nope. Then I noticed all of the plants including the tall palm trees lining the street were swaying and vibrating in unison. The odd thing was, people were still walking in and out of the nearby stores like nothing was going on. I looked down at the pup and she was still sitting there staring at the patty in my hand, head tilted, ears up. She had her priorities straight, food was more important than a stupid earthquake. 😄 All we could do was ride it out for the thirty seconds or a minute it lasted, and hope it wasn't about to get worse or another, stronger one wasn't going to follow it over the next several days.

[@seamusoreilly804]

I was in the Loma Prieta shake in ‘89. That was quite a ride, too.

[@TwinMama828]

Yeah, same here! I was in Daly City when it hit. The Battle of the Bay World Series was on and suddenly everything started shaking. My grandma's glass curio fell over and all the dishes came flying out of the cupboard. The San Andreas fault runs right through my backyard, so we all thought our house was going to fall off the cliff. Some people say the reason why there weren't more casualties is because of the baseball game. Everyone was either at the game or indoors watching it. I think only 63 people died. In hindsight the only reasons why there weren’t more casualties is because the roads were almost empty die to everyone either being at the game or watching it at home or the bar.

[@millahnna]

I was all the way over in Davis for that one and still got quite the ride. My mom was supposed to be coming home on the 880 but didn't tell us that sh'ed swapped shifts with someone. Spent hours in a panic. Dude she swapped with watch it collapse in his rearview.

Now that was an earthquake! It pretty much destroyed downtown Santa Cruz and took them years to recover. I wasn't living there at the time but it was so scary not being able to get ahold of family over there to see if everyone was OK. I was living inland at the time and still felt it pretty good. Our pool was sloshing water all over the place. Man, all these memories are flooding back like seeing part of the Bay Bridge collapse. Such a devastating earthquake.

As a lifelong resident of California, these can be scary and unnerving; quick note, always secure heavy furniture to the wall.

[@timfahey7127]

Did they ever find Trevor?

[@vinny4411]

Everyone loves magical Trevor, cause the tricks that he plays are ever so clever…

[@unf4th0mable]

No he unfortunately was found underneath a large piece of rubble and succumbed to his injuries

[@kylecarmean9636]

Trevor is still lost wandering around lost in the desert!!!! LOL!😅😮😮

[@elizabethruiz9104]

Great compilation. The people that run outside during a STRONG earthquake, though🤦‍♀..

[@Littlescienceguy]

Look at the pool @ 0:46. Those first ripples must be the P Waves and then the S Waves hit @ 0:48. Fascinating.

[@middler5]

Not gonna lie. This vehicle booty shaking compilation has got me all riled up.

[@NEXXI-]

Even during and earthquake *ads*

[@parkerjorgensen8330]

"Its okay its just when the Earth is shaking" that has to be the scariest feeling for a kid who thought the Earth couldnt move like that haha

[@stardown77]

You can hear a power line buzzing at 18:55.

[@beetlebob4675]

Thanks I hate it😂

[@cplongames]

0:11 The newscasters were scared too

[@joshthetrainfan]

I felt this earthquake and I live in Bakersfield. I felt it like the 6.8 the previous day and I still remember it very vividly. The earthquake damaged my pool liner. It broke a few months later because of it. I can still remember seeing the water slosh from side to side and destroy that liner inside and out. That is truly a moment I will never forget.

[@ThecodbroZ11]

That's trippy, watching the people on the TV react to the TV shaking

[@terrrell7798]

0:21 why didn't turn on the Emergency Broadcast System 9:28 the pain in her voice from laughter to fear. Scary part that could've been the big one.

[@acid7658]

we never have the EBS go off for earthquakes 😭

[@MJT777X]

​@@acid7658that's awful ngl

[@dpgamezderek8137]

By the time the warning went off it'd probably be over.

[@cici_tlb4009]

Nah, sending you to commercial in the middle of an earthquake is wild. Like at least hit us with an old fashioned “we’ll be right back”

[@livinglife8333]

My sister lives in Ridgecrest, her walls cracked. She slept in her car for two days.

[@rplata4242]

In L.A. when this happened. Was pretty strong and went on for what seemed forever! 😫

[@iam16bits]

I've lived on the east coast my entire life and the only one I've felt was back in April. That was just a 4.8, so I couldn't imagine what a 7.1 would feel like.

[@frankvandendool882]

10:15 What is more dangerous then an earthquake? Live power next to an above ground pool, during an earthquake and standing right next to it. 😂

[@darkakiyama0]

LOL The lady just riding out the pool-nami!

[@jpeek1009]

I know! I laughed so hard 😂

[@RokkeMC]

1:00 The Bike still standing blows my mind! Mine cant even STAND with just the smallest gust of wind! WTF

[@jondishmonmusicandstuff2753]

My question is did they ever find Trevor where the f*** is Trevor ? Let me find out that's a dog or a cat I swear to God?

[@savedbyJESUS777]

I with you 💪🏻 Don't EFF with animals, don't neglect animals, don't abuse animals and don't "Oh heck, he will be back" with animals. They are first! BTW, I quit my job as a dr4g counselor and bought a farm to take in neglected/abused/Disabled/ or homeless animals.. they are my everything. I hate how people get them, then turn on them 😔

[@nanooknet]

😂

[@SpAzZzZz_]

10:30 feels like an ominous scene in a movie, dad comforts son that “its only the earth shaking” right before an apocalyptic event happens !

[@phoebesmith9089]

Some wild footage. Interesting to see different people's reactions an animals as well. Another reminder of how precarious life is.

[@cookiemobers5650]

Not going to lie; I miss earthquakes. Grew up in Orange County, ,moved to Colorado in 1995. Would trade tornados for earthquakes any day!

[@mistersnitty7721]

I grew up in La Habra and moved to Florida in 2009. I miss California and would trade a hurricane for an earthquake!

[@NotSoCrazyNinja]

Yeah, I would much rather deal with the earth shaking a bit than to deal with tornadoes. I've been through both, and a hurricane.

[@sydrain2992]

Me being from colorado and thanking the lord I don’t have to deal with earthquakes lol

[@jpeek1009]

Nah, I’ll take tornado country. At least tornado season is only a few months out of the year, and you get warnings and can go to your shelter. I lived thru 3 small quakes in CA and would never want to experience that again!

[@ds_the_rn]

Mission Viejo checking in. I grew up in Long Beach and moved to the OC in 2010. We felt this earthquake VERY strongly. I was standing at my kitchen sink and I thought, “Welp, the big one is finally here.”

[@zayydelmar]

this is crazy, it's like watching an intro to a found footage thriller movie

[@DrFelonious]

That rare moment when the terrain is more unstable than the inhabitants.

[@rcngamer1343]

14:23 I know that area. That's the Tokyo House Restaurant at Ridgecrest. My family and I used to go there I think around 3-5 years ago before we moved out of state.

[@bagre798]

Is this a common thing for people who live in California?

[@NYCHFAN]

Not this big.

[@edrrrk]

I mean Alaska and California get the most earthquakes out of every state in the US, but large ones like this aren't that common. Usually smaller ones. But we are still prepared for it even if we get tiny earthquakes

[@Antfarmer]

Common yes, this big not so common. If this had been in LA it would have been much worse! Ridgecrest has a population of about 30,000 and is in the middle of the wide open Mojave Desert out by Death Valley so the destruction was not as extensive.

[@vminhope3040]

Every time someone says there was an earthquake I never feel it

[@cydkriletich6538]

It’s interesting to see how the same quake can appear differently depending on your location. Did that one where the people were sitting in what looked like a hotel suite happen in Las Vegas? I don’t think I realized they got quakes in Vegas. Perhaps not everything that happens in Vegas stays in Vegas!

[@millahnna]

I think that bit was Vegas but it was still the RIdgefield quake; I know Vegas felt it though. Some folks felt it up north in the Sacramento area too.

[@GeologicalNerd]

Yes, very much felt it in Vegas. Our little fault in town made something like little echos of the shaking. It was like the Earth was on a waterbed with long rolling waves. Strangest feeling I've ever been through. Lasted about 3 or so minutes.

[@iamReddington]

Californians react to earthquakes the same way midwesterners react to tornadoes: zero fucks given

[@robertreynolds1044]

I felt both in Vegas while watching TV, my cats were concerned, but not too freaked out. My name is Bicycle Bob and I approved this message and it was more of a roller, not a shaker.

[@jodiburnett6211]

The woman knocked down next to the pool getting slammed by waves.🌊 wow.

[@beatlezyt]

Its just wild to see this and to think that we live on ground that constantly moves 🤯

[@MattH-wg7ou]

For those who have experienced one, is the movement mostly laterally, forwards/backwards side to side in one axis or both? Or is it up and down too? Or just crazy random all over the place? Ive heard it throws your balance off and can make you feel drunk. I just have nothing to compare it to and cant imagine one! But I got you on hurricanes lol! Been in many eyes of many hurricanes.

[@BPlantyPNW]

Depends on the kind of quake. I've been in several large quakes. They were all so different from each other. The San Francisco one, almost felt like rolling. The streets literally looked like a wave

[@Ilovelosangeles]

@MattH-wg7ou I'm born, raised, lived my whole life in CA. Nowhere else. When the 1971 San Fernando quake hit (6:00 am, 6.6 mag), our house had extremely loud rumbling and creaking, and the house was shaking violently up/down & side to side. When the 1992 Humboldt one hit (11:05am, 7.2 mag), we were traveling thru the area and the bldg was shaking violently in an up & down manner. When the 1994 Northridge one hit (4:30 am, 6.7 mag), our house (then) was swaying and rocking like we were on a boat, and the creaking & rumbling was very loud. When this 2019 Ridgecrest one hit (8:19 pm, 7.1 mag), we were visiting a city nearby & the noise sounded like the bldg was going to collapse and everything was swaying side to side like something huge was pushing the bldg back and forth. All of the other quakes for all these years (in the 3, 4, & 5 mags), it depended on where we were, the bldg age/structure, fault location, etc. Yes, it throws your gait off (like when you're trying to walk down the aisle on a moving train and you have to grab onto the railing). For the Northridge one, we had a 2-story house and we all sat down on the top stair and bumped down on our butts on each stair to the ground floor (it was too dangerous to stand up & go down the stairs). Things flew off shelves, lamps swayed and fell, dishes came out of the cabinets, and the worst thing to have is a freestanding fish aquarium (that's why I've seen a lot of people in CA build them in the walls). Our TV fell over and broke in the San Fernando quake, among other things.

[@kathowell5058]

Initially it does feel like you're dizzy. I kept a hanging lamp over my bed when I lived in CA as an early warning system. Different quakes have different feels, and can be affected by how close to the epicenter you are. I remember the Coalinga quake felt like the vibration of a truck or train. Loma Prieta was more a roller or "wave". Mind you I was a good distance away from both so didn't get the full force. I was in Laughlin NV for Ridgecrest and it was more of a shaker than a roll at that distance.

[@mamat1213]

It varies… I’ve been in shorter ones that feel like swaying side to side, and others that feel like a tremble… one of the most violent ones felt like the entire house was picked up and SLAMMED down quickly. I don’t remember the magnitude but I was terrified. Also have experienced most of them at night, so the bed must change the impact? At this point I actually wake up or feel weird right before one hits, to the point I’ve felt smaller tremors when no one else noticed and I had to look it up to confirm 😢

[@Show-cv4tx]

It felt like waves rolling through

[@tyleroryan]

You can tell... people dont use their parking break. The transmission is not meant to lock wheels.

[@paigem.6487]

That’s cool & terrifying at the same time.

[@taeevanston2573]

My friend and I were staying in a hotel in Youngtown AZ when this earthquake hit. We were playing volleyball in the pool when suddenly we felt the water strongly serge from one side to the other, splashing large waves of water up onto the decking. At the time, we weren't sure if it was a passing train a short distance away. It wasn't until years later that we discovered that this earthquake was felt great distances across various western states and into Mexico. 😮

[@Baldylover]

I have an adult, disabled kid who was really sick when these earthquakes hit. After the 6.4, we went outside out of fear of another one. I had just given him his seizure meds and he was about to go lay down when this one (7.1) hit. He started crying because he was scared and so tired and sick. Not a fun time but luckily just had minimal damage

[@markosp]

14:27 yeah dont go under the table trample everyone everyone to the door.

[@Kevatron-qk9op]

It's interesting to see the wide range of reactions. :D

[@PaulinAsia_]

Stop telling your kid it is not shaking, when it clearly is. LOL

[@detroitbucknut]

if I'm stuck in an earthquake, you know damn well that I'm finishing my animal fries 😂

[@ConsoleWideGamer]

3:59 I like how bro is just standing there chilling and smiling while an earthquake is happening. This had laughing 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@filber66]

Minute 20:15: "100% it's an earthquake, a swear to God!" Of course it's an earthquake, dude, you are in California, what else do you think it could be? ;-))

[@spilltea4241]

He is talking to someone

[@MonkehBuns]

I love how there's only 3 reactions. At home: "Oh my, it's an earthquake. Better film the pool." Streaming: "YOOOOOOOOOOOOO." At a restaurant: just lose your goddamn mind.

[@creinicke1000]

A really Big one eventually will hit CA... it's very scary because I have family there. Love how adults always are reassuring the kids and not letting their own fear come out.

[@plawson8577]

Yes. And?

[@ES-nq8uu]

I live in California and we see this stuff all the time. Its been a while since we had a big one, but we are ready for it.

[@rebelfighter5249]

​@@ES-nq8uu no you're not. I guarantee you, NONE of the left coast is ready for the Big One.

This is insane!! I live out east in Indiana and I’ve been through one incredibly small earthquake once and was terrified. I can’t even begin to imagine one of this magnitude. I’d be beyond terrified!!

[@ringo5721]

i feel so bad for the animals just running around helpessly

[@michaelguerra1644]

My wife and I flew back to Los Angeles, the following day. Everyone in the airport was just library quiet. It was immediately noticeable. I guess most tourists got to experience more of California than they had planned to. 😂
