Eric Ling, even buildings with really good base isolators still shake in an earthquake. They just don’t jerk as violently, so they’re less likely to collapse. The science and engineering behind base isolators and other earthquake mitigation technology is actually pretty cool and worth looking up!

@@Marios5556 yes they do, however they also have MUCH less preparation and that, more than anything, is what limits damage. Japan has more sensors to indicate movement more than any other country. They have very strict building codes and have earthquake kits EVERYWHERE. So getting stuck unprepared is next to impossible, they even have sensors in cars which will notify you when you are experiencing an earthquake. Japan is the leader in this field, strict building codes doesnt mean they are well prepared. BC has very strict building codes and are still woefully underprepared. Also the USA is not prepared at all for earthquakes-they prepare for tornadoes and hurricanes more than anything.

I wished she had mentioned what to do. I know it seems obvious to some but there are still people who believe the doorway myth (I did), or just inherently want to go outside because they're afraid of the building collapsing. I read about a couple who freaked out during the second of the most recent California earthquakes and ran outside, then almost died when a power line fell right by them. Besides getting under something, apparently if you're in bed it's also pretty safe to just stay in bed, just make sure a pillow or something is protecting your head. The more you know.

Having been through a series of major earthquakes, Facebook was invaluable. It was often the best way to communicate when there was sporadic electricity for weeks and not all the cellphones still had coverage. Soon after the shaking stops I post my location and that I'm safe with the battery life I have. That's the way we've done it for the last nine years since they started and I'll never rag on Facebook because how it let me know that the people that are important to me are still alive when I can see a lot of buildings have collapsed. It also lets you know who's house is still standing for people to go to when their house is no longer safe.

Pretty much the same in california. We had a 7.6 a few months ago and there was no major panic or anything. People all the way in vegas and arizona felt it. The san Andreas is only capable of a max 8.3 magnitude quake. The potential fires and waterlines breaking really is the largest concern. Especially in the LA area, where there are millions of people. There's 4 Million people in LA alone. That's not counting all the cities surrounding it. There's 24.12 million people in southern california as of last year. Pretty much all of california would be affected by 'the big one.'

Gosh I remember when me and my family would live with my grandparents on the 11th floor of a 14 floor building. I was about 6 years old when my mom came into the living room and told us we had to get out fast because the chandelier was shaking. It was just me, my younger brother, my mom and my grandpa in the apartment at that moment. My mom took our passports and as we are about to leave we see our my grandpa just sitting in the kitchen. He was like, "nothing is gonna happen, I gonna stay and watch TV or something." Luckily after waiting outside for about 45 minutes with all the other residents of the building we saw that nothing was happening so we all went back inside. No damage or whatsoever.

This woman really knows what she's talking about. I lived in Los Angeles for nearly 40-years before the fear of earthquakes got me so scared that I had to move. The worst thing about them is, if there is a hurricane coming, even a gigantic one, YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO GET OUT. They can easily see the storm system heading your way, and you can even walk to safety. Same thing with wildfires or any other natural disaster. But there is no warning with earthquakes, which is why I left LA forever. The smaller quakes I lived through were bad enough, but when the Big One hits, *it will be a thousand times worse.* That said, there are literally dozens of smaller fault lines DIRECTLY BENEATH THE CITY that if they go off, could easily be just as destructive as the mighty San Andreas Fault, due to their proximity to the most highly populated areas of Los Angeles. The older structures will be the first to go, but as this expert said, it's the FIRES that will cause the most damage, not the quake itself, as bad as it may be. The Big One is over 50-years overdue, and I didn't want to stick around to see if it would happen. It will, but nobody knows when. I just couldn't handle the not knowing.

tiffsaver I have lived right outside of L.A. all of my life and really freaked out by this. Remember how we had so many bigger earthquakes in the late 80s and 90s? Those sent my house off of its foundation and the chimney collapsed. It’s unnerving that there really have barely been any of large significance (other than of course Ridgecrest just a few months ago) and makes the feeling of fear that we are overdue worse. Anyway, wish me luck! Where did you end up moving if you don’t mind me asking?

The "Big One" is going to happen to the entire Cascadian fault line, not just San Andreas. It is going to extend to Oregon, Washington, B.C., Alaska, and probably further south of California.

I remember SF🌉 shaking in '89 (30 years ago next month). We may not be able to predict quakes, but - as the video above shows - we CAN get stronger regulations and building codes to minimise (if not avoid) serious damage.🔥

That didn't tell you HOW TO PREPARE. It showed how it happens and what has happened in the past. So it pointed out that you probably won't have potable water and there could be fires or tsunamis.

If you say that anyone who says they can predict earthquakes is always lying, than when someone does develop a way to predict earthquakes, you will never accept it. Thus we all miss out on ever having earthquake warnings

As a chilean I feel insulted by the fact that my country, one of the earthquake capitals of the world was not mentioned in any way! Just kidding :) Pretty accurate video. The biggest quakes I have experienced was the 27F in 2010, 8,8 MW, I thought I was going to die, I was terrified but then I realized that the worst part of a disaster like a big quake is not the quake itself, the worst part is how people act after the main event.
