5 Strongest Earthquakes Caught On Camera

Is "duck and cover" not a thing in other countries or even other U.S. states outside of California? That's second nature response if you're stuck inside of a building in a big earthquake. Of course, everyone in California just waits to see how big it will be before doing anything. We all sort of freeze. If we're just swaying and some lights are swinging, we just wait for it to be done and continue doing whatever we were doing. Stuff has to fall for us to duck and cover, or if we are near an exit, get out.

Earthquakes are different, you don't run for cover, you run for open area so nothing falls on you.

I love that this video doesn't include Chile. Probably cuz we are calm af during earthquakes

One year around `69 I was on holiday with my family in Portugal. I had my own room. My bed was to one side of this fairly large room. One morning I woke up and my bed was in the middle of this room. I was clueless till I went down to breakfast and everyone was talking about it, pictures broken on the floor etc...I also slept through the great storm of `87 (UK) !
The only quake I have actually `experienced` happened above the Chamonix Valley around `02. My friends and I happened to be watching a Sky doc about earthquakes, sort of freaky really!
It was short and sharp and over within 5 secs. No aftershocks that we could feel.

The 1989 SF earthquake caused damage in the "10s of millions" it was 14 Billion adjusted lol.

My friend is from Nepal

Damn I feel bad for anyone 😢

Loma Prieta is a peak in the Santa Cruz mountains attributed to the epicenter of the 1989 quake. My first one felt after moving to CA in 1984. That section is not what broke in the 1906 event.

The year is that bad and then I am not even able anymore and I’m still sick of my life

That one in Trinidad was scary

And the list doesn't mention the 2004 Indonesian earthquake. As I remember it was a 9 earthquake, more than 200k people died : /

Where was Superman?

there are film and photos of the march 27, 1964 'good Friday' 9.2M quake in Alaska.

Goodbye..always love you.

The Turkey and Japan earthquake a lot stronger than these that you’ve posted! Turkey lost close to 100,000 people!

This was so scary.

This video maximizes the sounds, screams and insecurity, mythologizing the events which is not realistic

What was the magnitude?

Dude in Trinidad said "Bye I'm outta here - you're on your own!"

Northridge was my last earthquake. Had a baby... pregant wiith another. Only about 30 miles from Northridge.

Christ that's scary. IF WE DON'T LAUGH WE CRY. NO INBETWEEN. Bob Hope; When earthquakes strike I just jump on a helicopter and say; FOLLOW THAT CITY! On one occasion I stayed in bed for a few days and ended up with 3 different postcodes. ❤😢❤😢❤😢❤😢❤😖😭; a one-a and a two-a and a goodbye to you-a 🫡

The San Francisco earthquake destroyed my parents house. They lived in Woodland Hills in LA.

How could the March 11 2011 Japan earthquake not on the top 5 and only in bonus ??? Is this for real ???

I believe the humans come to earth after all another planet destroyed ! and we fight for our life on planet earth ! and at the end everything will also destroyed here ,, the humans and other animals not welcome to be here in this galaxy !

What happens when it’s an earthquake in Japan 🇯🇵?

at the 1989 this was that 2012 scene irl-

Please help us i leave in phillippines

The Japan earthquake in 2011 was on my birthday. Horrible news to wake up to 😢

I have a faint memory of being with my dad watching the '89 World Series when the earthquake struck. I was too young to grasp the situation fully, but I sensed something was wrong. I reside in an area prone to tornadoes and hurricanes, which is challenging in itself, yet I can't fathom the fear of dealing with earthquakes

San Francisco 6.9 Earthquake in 1989! I was there in San Francisco in July of 89 my first time visiting The City. It was hard to imagine anything happening to the most beautiful and breathtaking area in the entire country! I went back East for my sophomore year in undergraduate school and a girl I dated at the time ran into the college library were I was working and told me about the quake from watching the World Series! I couldn’t reach my friend who lived in Sacramento for like 2 weeks! Many mixed emotions as I watch this video and the profound sadness I felt about that marvelous city! But also encouraged by the bravery shown by all citizens to help out! God bless San Francisco!

How is #1 worse than #2?

the way this guy narrate this video makes it sounds like a spotevent

this was so epic! i love mr breast!

No Chilean footage, u nuts? Those r brutal

4th video is in 2008 China..... SiChuan, there are hundreds of videos from that tragedy, which killed 69000 people. Your research is really poor.

You're missing Mexico's 2017 earthquake.

Living in Colorado earth quakes, tsaumi's and hurricanes don't exist thankfully. Just the occasional bi or tri annual blizzard and tornadoes that don't really amount to anything

Lol @ how useless women are in emergencies. Like, you screaming only makes it worse for everyone you dummy.

Two annoying things with this channel

1. They spoil two of the videos in the beginning of the video
2. They describe the scene then play the scene which also spoils the scenes.
