since NYC is not prone to quakes, they easily collapse, apparently the World Trade Center can only handle 6.0 quakes but again magnitude 6+ quakes are not common
If you're asking for a comparison of earthquake damage to Times Square in New York City (NYC), it's important to note that NYC is not typically subject to large-scale earthquakes due to its geological setting. The eastern United States, including NYC, is located on the stable interior of the North American tectonic plate, far from active plate boundaries where most significant seismic activity occurs. However, hypothetically, if an earthquake were to strike NYC and cause damage in Times Square, the extent of the damage would depend on several factors: ### **Factors Determining Earthquake Damage in Times Square:** 1. **Magnitude of the Earthquake:** - Higher magnitude earthquakes tend to cause more widespread and intense damage. - NYC is not typically associated with high-magnitude earthquakes, but even moderate earthquakes could cause damage depending on the location of the epicenter. 2. **Building Age and Type:** - Times Square is home to many high-rise buildings, some of which are older and built before modern seismic codes were developed. - Newer buildings are often designed with earthquake resistance in mind, which could reduce damage. 3. **Proximity to the Epicenter:** - Damage intensity decreases with distance from the epicenter. If an earthquake were to occur far from NYC, the shockwaves might be less intense by the time they reach Times Square. 4. **Soil and Ground Type:** - Seismic waves can be amplified by certain types of soil, leading to greater shaking in areas with soft soil or landfill. Manhattan Island is primarily made of hard bedrock, which is generally less susceptible to amplification of seismic waves. ### **Comparison of Potential Damage:** | Factor | Low-Magnitude Earthquake (e.g., 4.0) | Moderate-Magnitude Earthquake (e.g., 6.0) | High-Magnitude Earthquake (e.g., 8.0) | |----------------------------------|--------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------| | **Building Damage** | Minor cosmetic damage (cracks, broken windows) | Moderate structural damage to older buildings, some facade collapse | Severe structural damage, possible collapse of older or poorly designed buildings | | **Infrastructure** | Minor disruption to subways and roads | Damage to subway tunnels, roads, and utilities | Major disruption to transportation, utilities, and possibly bridges | | **Casualties/Injuries** | Minimal injuries, if any | Some injuries due to falling debris and glass | High number of injuries and casualties from building collapses and fires | | **Emergency Response** | Limited response needed | Emergency services stretched but capable | Overwhelmed response efforts, potential need for national assistance | | **Recovery Time** | Days to a week | Weeks to months for full recovery | Months to years, depending on the extent of devastation | ### **Historical Context:** - **NYC Earthquakes:** The largest recorded earthquake near NYC occurred in 1884, with an estimated magnitude of 5.2. This caused minor damage across the city. - **Building Codes:** NYC has adopted stringent building codes that take seismic activity into account, which would mitigate the damage from moderate earthquakes. ### **Hypothetical High-Magnitude Earthquake Impact (8.0+):** In the highly unlikely event of a major earthquake (e.g., magnitude 8.0 or higher), Times Square could experience significant damage: - Older buildings could collapse or suffer extensive damage. - Glass from windows and facades could shatter, posing a danger to pedestrians. - Subways and other underground infrastructure could be severely impacted, leading to long-term disruption. - Emergency and recovery efforts would be massive, requiring federal and possibly international assistance. ### **Conclusion:** While NYC is not typically at risk for devastating earthquakes, if one were to occur, the damage would depend on a variety of factors, including the magnitude, building resilience, and proximity to the epicenter. In particular, Times Square, with its dense concentration of high-rise buildings, could suffer varying levels of damage, but modern construction standards would likely prevent the worst-case scenarios seen in more seismically active regions like California or Japan.
Wow! ❤️I hope so too!! This is great food for thought! I hope this video will promote conversations about seismic safety in every single city worldwide!!! 😇
As someone who experienced the February 6 earthquake in Turkey, 7.5 is quite similar. I could easily feel the floor moving up and down, and standing on the 5th floor was impossible. Please make more videos :)
Thank you for sharing this!! I hope this video will facilitate discussions about seismic safety in every single town and city worldwide- in every single classroom! ❤️ News Media, hope you’ll read this! :)
It has always surprised me that your videos, once they exceed magnitude 6, half of the buildings fall, I am from Chile and I have experienced 2 earthquakes, one of 8.3 and 7.9 and like only 5 house had fallen Completely (but there are tsunamis) although Some estimates may not be entirely correct, but I still appreciate your effort and I hope we go further as a community because you deserve it. Sorry if my english is weird or something 😅
@@xqcommunity (from Chile too) I don't know, nature wanted us to live here and mostly we have normalized having earthquakes so not big deal (except when the earthquake brings tsunamis or something worst happens after)
Some people are saying the building falling over at a 5.5 isn't realistic but most buildings in NY are over 200 or even 300 years old, and if they are not up to code that can happen.
As someone who lives on the West Coast, it's fascinating to see the differences in construction and architecture from the East. It'd take at least a 7-8 to topple/collapse most buildings in my area. I hope an earthquake of any major size doesn't hit the East Coast. It'd be absolutely disastrous.
Thank you for your dedication to bringing awareness to the importance of earthquake preparedness and the need for building earthquake sustainable structures. Can you add Sacramento to the list if you have time. Most of the structures are not retrofit. Best regards 🙂
Haunting and quite realistic.. most of the modern tall buildings are built well enough to withstand s 6.0 to possibly a 7.0, I would expect older steel buildings like ESB (that is WAY overbuilt) to maybe withstand it, but the limestone façade will crumble and rain death on the streets below. The WTC buildings would likely be fine. However - Most of the older brick/mortar buildings will literally crumble in as little as a 5.0 to a 5.8, and literally will entomb people. I heard that NYC has a fault not too far that is capable of up to a 6.0 quake. A 5.8 quake (like 1987 Whittier Narrows) would be FAR worse than a San Andreas 8.3 snapping the lower section of the fault starting at the Salton Sea, and even worse being the potential Puente Hills fault worst case scenario of up to 7.5.
Wonderful video! Also reading from the pinned comment, you really dedicated yourself to this project! ❤ Also, the question ,,how did we get here?" MASTERPIECE Movie trailer!
0:33 Pov: On April 5, 2024, at 10:23 EDT (14:23 UTC), a Mw 4.8 earthquake occurred in the U.S. state of New Jersey, with the epicenter in Tewksbury Township.
Collapsing at 5.5? Literally 2 weeks ago an 6.4 ocurred here in chile and no buildings collapsed, and 3 days later another 6.3 more North :v Im glad im Chilean
Fascinating. Although I don't live in NYC, have never lived there and never will, I have never lived in an earthquake prone area and doubt I would, I have no idea why this was morbidly interesting. 😂
So during the earthquake which I live in New York State, it reached to towns. It also reached to Albany and stuff like that. Reach to White town and New York is very far from me so it was a surprise.
It's often stated that earthquakes are more dangerous on the East Coast than they are on the West Coast. On the West Coast, earthquakes are an expected hazard, with many smaller ones happening quite frequently, and so, places like California take measures to reduce damage and casualties should an earthquake happen. On the East Coast however, earthquakes are a much rarer event, but that doesn't mean they don't happen. The hazard comes from the fact that people on the East Coast are blissfully unprepared for a major earthquake simply because they assume it could never happen, which could lead to an untold number of casualties. Also, how do you calculate falt ruptures?
There's a fault line (Ramapo) west of NYC (with a nuclear plant built close to it) so while remote, it could happen. And the earth on the east coast is very old so the vibrations will be felt far. That's what happened in the Mineral, VA earthquake in 2012. It would be very costly and many people would die.
Hei Dudz, an 5.3 earthquake hit Romania, reaching MMI around IV-VI. My doors started trembling from the earthquake (I’m in Lviv) and it was felt all the way in Kyiv, where it reached maximum MMI III-IV. One of the reports in Kyiv said his car shook a little. Umm yeah that is kinda impossible to be made by an earthquake that far😮. Could you please make a simulation of the earthquake please? If yes, can you add povs of these cities (based off felt reports on EMSC and USGS): Bucharest, Brasov, Chinsau, Tiraspol, Odessa, Lviv. Must be Atleast 1 city from each country. Thanks, mate! I will be waiting, also I recommend taking a break.
I have an opinion, it is that when there is an earthquake that strong in real life the power goes out, but it doesn't go out there, I don't know if you can fix it if it's not a problem.
@@EarthquakeSim If I am I just blind and haven’t seen it I apologize in advance lol but I would love to see what would happen to a building with a dome (government building, religious buildings, etc). Point me in the right direction if I missed it!
I don't live in NYC. So I don't know this. Are the buildings there even built with earthquakes in mind? Of course, I know that earthquakes aren't crazy common in the east but there are some just not powerful ones. I'm only asking because if a powerful earthquake were to ever happen there it would be catastrophic right?
@EarthquakeSim thanks for your reply. Your videos are great to watch. I find them interesting and informative. Though I also love disaster movies for the same reason I watch your videos minus, maybe the informative part. Unless you count San Andreas, which did at the time have actual earthquake science, or at least I thought it did. Well, to an extent.
When I was a child, I almost died in the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake.（1995） Japan has many earthquakes. Small earthquakes are a daily occurrence. Japanese people continue eating even if there is a small earthquake while they are eating😂
@ Very interesting. Modern buildings in Japan have top-class earthquake resistance, but older buildings are not. Traditional buildings and areas will be severely damaged. But we also need to protect our culture...
