I dunno if I've just been on RUclips too long, but man is it refreshing to see TV produced content on here sometimes. YT'ers can waffle on aimlessly at times
I grew up in the Rangitikei with Ruapehu, Ngaurohoe, and Tongariro outside my bedroom window in the distance - erupting periodically. My family was from Canterbury and I went to school in Christchurch (Christ's College) as did several generations of my family before me. So, when Christchurch was destroyed, it was very painful.
I think every kiwi, esp those of us close to/lived there/have family there, felt the pain of everyone in the Chch earthquake down into the pits of our souls. Between Chch & Kaikoura earthquakes & the horrendous Mosque killings we all went thru a lot of shit for a while there. We're down near Dunedin & I remember the first Chch earthquake that hit in the am actually woke us it was that strong where we were!!
Seriously, it’s not that bad in New Zealand. I don’t live in fear, I mean I would if I solely believed in this “documentary”. They make it sound like a disaster country.
Well, New Zealand is the only country that can have a Richter scale 9 earthquake, a VE8 eruption, Category 5 hurricane, and a polar blast blizzard, and massive flash flooding all at the same time, or within weeks of each other, and all at different parts of the country. If you spoke to Maori leaders, they could tell you that, because they have lived it many times over the 800 years they have been here. The environment, and risk of these disasters, is why our infrastructure is crap. It has a shelf life that is half of that in the UK. They can replace theirs after 100 years. We have to replace every 50.
You don't live here so u have no clue. I live in chch and I was here for earthquakes my memories will haunt me forever. Deceased ppl, Ppl stuck in buildings still alive and under the rubble and waiting to see if they can be saved. Buildings collapsing all around us. I was right in the city I saw so much I can't unsee. We had no power, no water and no sewage. My house was in the red zone so none of us could go home. Earthquakes still going for years after. Ppl were depressed and anxious. We were too scared to sleep. The terrorist shotting was down the road from me. More trauma. We have had alot of disasters and it's hard for all of us. It has hit us financially too. Alot of ppl die so don't say it's not that bad cos u have no idea untill u have lived it. Im still here never left.
The CTV building was critically compromised in the first earthquake and should never have been used after it. People were complaining about the stairwells and floors moving and creaking was the walked over them after the first quake. Earthquake codes are to protect people but sacrifice the building, just like crumple zones in cars.
@@spacecadet35 Yes I understand that, but after the first earthquake, which the building survived so it wasn't that crap, people complained about how rickety the building became. But engineers certified it as being safe. I heard of people who left their jobs rather than work in that building. Sadly we know how the story ended. But it was more convenient to tall poppy the design engineer (and he was an easy target) rather than the engineers who recertified the building. A bit like Pike River Mine where apparently the mine inspectors and the Government had no responsibility in the disaster.
@2020davidabc They did vet him. The problem is, the guy stole a real engineer's name and qualifications, so that when the Council made contact, no one realised they were talking about two different people. It was so bad, that they never even realised that the real engineer was retired, and living in Australia, in the town the fraud came from. They only realised after the CTV building came down, and they spoke to the engineer that was retired, because the fraud had fled after the first earthquake. But, as bad as that was, it is worse in other professions, and the worse examples are in healthcare. We had the same fraudulent behaviour with a Doctor, and also a nurse that was practicing here that had fled the UK after being struck off and getting exposed after an incident. Both during the pandemic.
@2020davidabc Yes. It is a big problem, and it is because other nations do not warn us they are coming here, but expect us to do so. It is not a flood, but they show up now and then, and only when officials are focussed on other issues. The pandemic was a key example of that focus going elsewhere, and not watching things of that nature, which is understandable at that time.
Great comment. I nursed those pulled from buildings that day and night and it was hell. I suffered ptsd after seeing what I saw and I will never ever forget those patients. My partner, pulled burnt bodies from the CTV building, we were both very traumatised at the time. My home was also badly damaged and should have been written off, but hey my children were fine and that is such a blessing :) RIP the 158 precious lives lost on that day ❤
Force Majeure events always brings out the best in humanity. The best we can always hope for is that we have prepared ourselves well enough and ready to help those who didn't.
Mother Nature rules the world. Lucky to live in New Zealand despite the earthquake risks. But I must reach my goal of living on the West coast beaches so we can go running and swimming - and fishing for dinner yum - any time we like ahhhhhh that is bliss - before it's too late though
Touch my head, touch my toes Hope I'm never in one of those. I was in the tornado in Albany on the north Shore, I was working at New World in the mall at the time. Hi from Tauranga New Zealand 😉👍
Thanks for sharing such valuable information! I need some advice: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
The problem wasn't that there was an earthquake, a lot of the damaged or destroyed buildings were built to withstand an earthquake of that size. The problem was just how the earth moved during that quake. It moved in a way that it had NEVER done before in that area and was completely unexpected. Has it moved as it normally had those buildings would still be standing today
We have house in Dallington the earthquakes effected really bad no power no water no sewage we lived like that for 6 weeks liquefaction which took weeks to clean up we had rubber neckers just can for a look we lost 60% of our people our house in Landy street which borders on to the red zone we still have our house but we don’t live there the earth quakes ruined our lives it’s ironic that the city of Christchurch is gone the opposite way and become at huge city 😢😢
Nah, still got the Alpine Fault Rupture estimated 8-8.5, also the Hikurangi Subduction Zone Fault estimated anywhere from 8.5-9+ with tsunamis or the Auckland volcanic field coming to life, then if that doesn’t keep you awake at night Taupo super volcano which could potentially take most Te Ika-a-Maui, so plenty to look forward to!
There is a fault line that runs down the middle of my street just before a quake hits there is a sound lik a empty truck and trailer rumbling down my street then a split second later everything starts shaking and moving
We are no diifferent from other countries that experience eatthquakes. Like most countries, we dont get these every day, month or years. Like the professionals say, they dont know when one will strike. We the people cannot be complacent and think it will never happen cos now we know it will. Its just a matter of when and how we deal with it. Hawks Bay did, Christchurch did and Kaikoura. Theres always another day and we just keep on living and rebuilding. Thats what humams do. Dont want to see lose of life, then help those to learn and what to do when the big one strikes.
Agree. They should research how to predict earthquakes instead of spending their time on Climate change. The last dude [Professor Yahoo] trying hard to relate Earthquakes to climate change is far-fetched. A closer culprit could be windmills taking away heat winds, causing climate change by his logic.
The convergent plate boundary Indo Australian Plate continental SIAL and Pacific plate SIMA so heavier Pacific plate gets destroyed in the liquid Aesthenosphere it depends on the PRESSURE BUILD UP IN THE VENTS geologically if rocks are semi permeable to impermeable it creates pressure building up over the years so with less floodings yearly basis you okay your vents not having pressure builds up Floodings sedimentations of river sediments loads adds more weights again so thrust is more heavier
Well yes. Have been here for over 70 years, and yes stuff will happen. Possibly a bit over the normal timeline from the normal 300 years or so coming.. NZ could also be a very good place to stop re the wars around. Put your garden in and take your head out of the sand. Maybe well put a few cans of B Beans in the cupboard Den
The start be like: "Wind, Water, Fire, hors d'oeuvres" I will need a moment to get used to the accent after only watching natgeo and other american documentaries
So nothing about the 1931 7.8 quake in Hawkes Bay nothing about the 1995-96 eruption of Mt Ruapehu all relatively new stuff that's happened in the last 12~14 years 75% of which was just about Christchurch but nothing about the 2016 7.8 Kaikoura quake either pretty much wish I could get that 48 mins back after watching this crap

I hear you! Was disappointing it wasnt more a complete overview of the history of events rather than mainly ChCh and White Island. I was living in Waiouru during the eruption of Mt Ruapehu in 95/96 so that is very clear in my personal recent memory. White Island gets me; it is a very active volcano, its advertised as an active volcano, there are warnings about it being an unpredicatable active volcano, so why the shock and disbelief when you choose to visit it because its an active volcano and it does what active volcanoes do. Bad timing for sure but also buyer beware!
What the f... r u kidding me what a load of tosh of cause it was natural as a 78 yr old kiwi I have been in many quakes it's what we expect living here most weeks some where there is a quake we just get on with it ....
But he hasn't yet conclusively proven it. You can't accurately predict them yet 'cause they're happening all the time. Somehow you've got to filter out the noise of all the micro ones happening every second and predict ones of a specific magnitude on a long line of possible strengths.
You can measure the pressure in the fault, when the pressure is high that means a major earthquake could happen sometime over the next few decades, however that pressure could also mean ongoing smaller earthquakes over the next few decades, it doesn’t necessarily mean a big one. Low pressure means no activity, that’s about the accuracy of predictions
So le idiotbox network that transmitt's, gets hit with a qwake, witch brings down le idiotbox's transmission building, when le transmission's cause le qwake in le first place. Karma @ it's Best i guess.
your Glaciation Denudation natural processes more stable over the years thus your South Island not volcanic but earthquake prone if more floodings year after year you okay as your Forests native trees holding strongest so sediments loads not plenty You okay

No matter how many times i watch docos on the quakes its always so unreal
Me too. Mayb because of unimaginable mother nature powers? I don't get it. Even Tsunamis
NZ complains about being left off the map, but then often leaves Stewart Island off. There are Three mainland Islands.
Crazy how it's only remembered if it makes money.. it's a brutal place and also beautiful so take a certain kind of human who wants to get out there.
North , South and the Chathams ? anything beyond bluff doesn't count lol.

Not trying to take away from the people that suffered through this. But in terms of natural disasters, NZ gets prity small ones..

That hits deep
I grew up in Auckland and now literally live next to the Southern Alps. Shakes are months apart and quite brief.
I’m 38, have lived in Auckland most of my life, lived in Christchurch for 2 years. Never felt an Earthquake
I remember the Albany tornado well. 😢
That threw me, as I live in a town called Albany, in Western Australia, and we've never had a tornado lol.
it's called the subduction zone. one plate slides over the other - plate tectonics
NZ doesn't get tornados!! And if we do, they're tiny ones in contrast to what they get in the U.S

Guys its not even that bad in NZ
The convergent plate boundary Indo Australian Plate continental SIAL and Pacific plate SIMA so heavier Pacific plate gets destroyed in the liquid Aesthenosphere
it depends on the PRESSURE BUILD UP IN THE VENTS
geologically if rocks are semi permeable to impermeable it creates pressure building up over the years
so with less floodings yearly basis you okay your vents not having pressure builds up
Floodings sedimentations of river sediments loads adds more weights again so thrust is more heavier
What a terrible edit, created for sensational but overlooks salient facts any New Zealander would tell you.
Unless you lived in Christchurch, through what happened at 12:51pm, youll never understand the terror we felt.
