Japan 9.1 Earthquake (Sendai) Compilation March 11, 2011

[@RWP98]

9.1 its insane, and more insane is how well built japanese buildings are, an earthquake this big in europe would destroy everything

[@ilikespaghetti4458]

Japan gets a lot of earthquakes since they're on the ring of fire so they have buildings specifically built to withstand stuff like this

[@Shortwave_dude]

It only reached the shore as 6.6

[@VenomousLuigi]

Agreed

[@Atsushi_K0217]

At that time, I suffered from this earthquake. In the city where I live, there observed a seismic intensity of 6+ of the Japan Meteorological Agency Seismic Intensity Class. It shook for more than 3 minutes. Since it is an inland area, there was no damage from the tsunami. The inside of my house was messed up, there was no foothold. On the day of the earthquake, we set up a tent in the garden and slept. This earthquake and tsunami killed 15,900 people and still leave 2,525 missing. I never want to experience it again.

[@Dragonborn1178]

I feel so sorry for those people I watched part of the video but could not watch anymore I want to visit Japan in the near future so I’ve been looking at videos on Japan and saw this

[@user-mn8fi4uu8y]

I’m so sorry you went through that. I can’t imagine what it was for the people in Sendai losing all their people.

[@devoid24]

12:50 is insanely intense. That's Sendia Airport, one of the closest to the earthquake, and the first place to get the tsunami...

[@WOOL22K]

It's Sendai, not Sendia.

[@SherilynGigantone]

Why is this happen? Bcoz there's a male and female giant just having sex.. just why it's shaking 😅😅😅

[@noajurisic6439]

This just shows the genius of japanese engineering and architecture

[@terasgamer9097]

@@rainy_saturday those buildings are super old and they still held up to a 9.1 earthquake. Amazing.

[@MazinLuriahk]

@@rainy_saturday that was traditional house.. so of course their engineering for traditional houses ain't great compared to modern buildings 💀💀.. but still this is great because its didn't collapse as whole, only the roof...

12:49 Wow that's really strong😨

[@immortalgamingyt6182]

Possibly near the epicentre of the quake

[@AriixYT]

@@immortalgamingyt6182 Yes, this is Sendai Airport, Sendai was very close to the epicentre

[@cranksetwrench]

That was Shindo 7

[@var41]

Shindo: Magnitude in Japanese representing scales from 1-7 But this earthquake just is horrible… the magnitude was 7 in shindo scale but in Our scale, it’s 9.0-9.1 I feel so sorry to those affected by this quake Very strong and very deadly

[@lamandula85]

​​@@cranksetwrench This location was "just" Shindo 6-lower. 😬

[@aircraftandmore9775]

12:50 rare footage of shindo 7 intensity shaking

[@lamandula85]

According to JMA, the intensity at Sendai Airport was actually 6 lower.

[@biggsjeep9584]

[@QueenJaneway]

that sendai airport footage will haunt me my whole life. Also can't believe how great the structure is.

[@Ro.Ro.]

oh that precious kitty at 02:34 just has no idea what is happening. ☹

[@gustavoceballos5327]

16:12: filmed inside Sendai Mediatheque

[@GalaxyDoge72]

1:48 is where all hell breaks loose

[@tubbunny]

It’s so strong the earthquake early warning system estimated the seismic intensity level to be a one at his location

[@GalaxyDoge72]

@@tubbunny 7 is the highest intensity in japan

[@joedellinger9437]

5:05 That’s why you are advised NOT to run out of a building if you are inside when an earthquake hits.

[@Ivan-Manzo]

In my country it's exactly the oposite, if you have time you get out and search for a place where nothing can fall on you, you only shelter in place it there is not enough time to leave (like a tall building) or if the shaking is so intense you might fall while walking. Most places in here dont have that kind of roof tiles however.

[@devoid24]

9:04 i hope the bus driver was smart enough to get him, his bus and all the passengers to higher ground!

[@spyninjas1223]

The most scariest part is not knowing how much louder and louder will it get.

[@gmalesev]

Wow, japanese are so calm

[@immortalgamingyt6182]

In the USA, We just straight up panic lol

[@stormshorts2270]

@@immortalgamingyt6182 for an 3.0 earthquake

[@Finn_553]

They are just used to earthquakes. In any country where earthquakes happen regularly you will see people are less likely to panic about it.

[@Y0ur_Fr13nd]

5:15 OMG I just saw an old lady on the left building near the door OMG!!! I hope she was okay?!?!?! 😥😥😥

[@biggsjeep9584]

Looks to be ok. I suspect she was just outside of where most of the debris hit..barely. She doesnt seem to be laying on the ground when that section of video ends. I cant tell if she is in the doorway at the end

[@obiteljtolic7224]

Omg that is rlly strong and rlly long😶

[@Lemon-bd8zg]

I don't want to say this but..... That's what she said

[@sarahlouise7163]

so much stuff piled on shelves, so many wires outside

[@owen3drblx661]

1:10 , I saw a ps3 controller

[@barneycalhoun4611]

Japan is quite good when it comes to foresight and early warnings. Giving your citizens up to 30 seconds to shelter before the brunt of a large earthquake strikes is amazing!

[@Y0ur_Fr13nd]

IF AN EARTHQUAKE IS STRONG OR LONG GET GONE...

[@lwwwwl]

仙台空港のはほんとやばい　防災資料にもなってる

[@garryferrington811]

This earthquake just went on forever!

[@sofiasofia1508]

In fact, buildings in Japan can withstand up to 9.0 on the scale, while in Indonesia they only reach 7.0 on the scale.

[@Monticello_Bonifacio]

Even worse. There was a 5 magnitude earthquake in West Java, and most of the houses were destroyed like it's 7 magnitude
