I hope my simulations will educate the general public about potential earthquake related hazards and create more curiosity about Earth Science in general. I do also hope that my videos will inspire a future generation of amazing architects, engineers and scientists! We all need to peacefully work together to make this world a better place. :)
My goal is to show people around the world the effects of different earthquake shaking levels on various buildings and structures.
These simulations along with my piano music (Spotify/RUclips: @pardonmypiano

Why was i recommended this when we literally had an earthquake today in LA
That’s how RUclips works :) I’ve had people who were watching this video WHILE the earthquake happened :)
@@EarthquakeSimlol I just watched this last night and then today the earthquake happens lol
💀
CIA, FBI, etc. Who knows?
If you literally had an earthquake then people searched on internet los angeles earthquake. Wich happens to be in this title also. Probably people searched some news surfed internet a bit more and stumbled upon this video , they watched the entire video since its interesting so the algorithm decides that this is one of the most accurate answers to the entry : los angeles earthquake. The device u use is connected to internet. You have an ip adress that sends location or indicates location. So los angeles people boosted views of this video because of the earthquake.
MY HOUSE FELL DOWN
hopefully the insurance people are working today
what if their house also fell down? would they also work today?
@@EarthquakeSim my home is cooked then
@@MrFoxANDnoobie oh no
That is bad
the collapse of the U.S. Bank Tower looked incredibly realistic 👍👍
are the buildings really that resilient though??
Yes the skyscrapers in downtown LA are very sturdy :)
you mean the maze bank tower?
@@EarthquakeSims, all the skyscrapers in DTLA is already earthquake proof?
Its actually called US Bank Tower in real life@@skproductions9587
@@Foodsgallery_ Skyscrapers in general are, not just those in Los Angeles. Skyscrapers are effectively a solid frame of material with how they are built. Imagine trying to "break" a pencil by shaking it.
Crazy. I watched this video the night before and thought to myself "Scary. I wonder when a next quake will happen?" Sure enough i wake up to my apartment shaking. 4.7 Mag in LA today.
I got the notification!! And noticed that this video had more views yesterday… crazy coincidence!!!
@@EarthquakeSim Right??? That is crazy! I appreciate your amazing work for this reason good sir!
Biggest earthquake I've been in was the Northridge Quake. The year of aftershocks almost drove us nuts! Recently, we had a few mild EQs, no damage, but they sure keep you on your toes!
it's been 30 years since the Northridge quake. I'd say the LA basin is kind of "overdue" for 2 big quakes. A magnitude +7 from the San Andreas fault and a +6 on a normal/strike-slip/blind fault
Didn’t we just have a 7.1 in 2019 in Ridgecrest?
@@GutekZ yes but that isn’t the LA basin. That out in the Mojave desert in Kern County, well over 100 miles from LA
I wasn’t even alive yet during Northridge, but my parents sure were! Their apartment shook so badly they thought they were gonna end up in the underground parking garage. After it jolted them out of bed, my mom recalls that she tried to get to the china cabinet to save their wedding gifts, but she couldn’t because she was getting thrown from wall to wall in the corridor between the bedroom and the kitchen. Dad pulled her back into the room and they sheltered together away from the window.
Mom later found out that the glass and crystal wares had practically been reduced to dust, and the glass doors on the cabinet had shattered. Dad left after the big aftershock to check on family and friends. Mom was kind of peeved at him for leaving her, but he ended up helping a lot of people that day. To this day he still knows how to determine in a matter of seconds whether cracks on the side of a building are indicative of structural failure. He’s a brilliant guy.
what was the Richter scale of the Northridge quake? I live in FL btw
The effort, the amount of objects you put through is astounding. Love your LA work
I’ve poured every single drop of my soul:) it took 2 weeks, 5 computers and lots of trials/errors to make it work smoothly
Impressed that so many of the buildings stayed up even in the final hypothetical!
Though I imagine there would be a lot of internal damage from furniture, ceiling panels, plumbing etc. Plus windows getting broken as glass doesn't flex much at all
I agree! For that last scenario, I've used my imagination - I did not want to destroy the whole city, I was more curious to see how to skyscrapers would sway at different rates :)
Also important to note that this would only be the immediately seismological effects. Fires and hypersonic winds would greatly depend on specifics of the asteroid impact as well, but would almost certainly help to more than damage the rest of them.
@@ClementinesmWTF i think the winds and subsequent firestorm would probably take out all windows and non-reinforced walls/doors. most if not all of the buildings would probably collapse.
@antistrix I doubt a massive firestorm is achievable in the manner that LA is designed. Despite the looks, LA is not as condensed in space as compared to other locations where firestorms happened (i.e., Tokyo or Dresden). It might happen inside a building, but for a firestorm to wreck LA, it's gonna require 40% of the cities electrics and gas to be on fire simultaneously, but usually is about 15-20%
@@dan_38maybe, but i still think a large enough asteroid's pressure wave combined with it's super heated fireball after impact would burn most of the city similar to a nuclear explosion (but most likely worse)
LA native and hugee geography nerd, thank you so much for the maps detailing each fault !!
@@kiefcoffeethank you so much for watching!! Please share this video with your friends :) and stay tuned for more simulations!!!
@@EarthquakeSimif the fault lines are miles from downtown does downtown experience softer shaking than the start point or is it the same
Yes. Those maps are gold.
The Cascadia fault rupture!
L.A. is my home town. The biggest earthquake I experienced was the 1971, m6.5 San Fernando earthquake. I was 7yo. Thankfully, I was living in the Milwaukee, WI area at the time of the Northridge earthquake. There are still many old, unreinforced, masonry and concrete, low and mid-rise buildings throughout the greater L.A. area. That event sparked a life-long fascination with earthquakes, tectonics, and volcanism. I pretty addicted to your sims. I'm a 3D generalist myself, I do indeed understand how much work goes into doing even the relatively simple modeling you are doing. I'm guess that, most of your time and computing resources go into running the sims.
I’m happy to hear that you enjoy my simulations so much! They are very educational and spark a lot of curiosity about earth science. :) I’ve spent 200 hours working on this, literally 2 weeks every day
It means a lot hearing feedback from a 3D generalist :)
You're literally two years older than my father that what you're saying? Anyway thanks for sharing your QuakeStory™.
YES! A REALISTIC CITY SKYLINE!
For the first time ever!!!
How’s your day?
Good, how is yours?
@@EagleAirwaysOfficalAerocan’t believe I’ve spent 2 weeks on this project
@@EarthquakeSimit took you that long?
I live in Santa Monica California (Los Angeles County) used to live in San Francisco. My house is new and built to current earthquake codes for California and the office I work in has been retrofitted to current California earthquake codes. I have a storm shelter with a month’s worth of food and supplies in the case of an actual earthquake emergency.
I’m so happy to hear that you’re living in a safe house! The water and food supplies are crucial. Thanks for sharing your feedback!!! :)
I live in the UK and have nothing to protect me with in an emergency xD

@@EarthquakeSim I mean, there's a real building that represents that one on the right that keeps collapsing.... I hope none of them see this video. XD
The maze bank😂
@@oliviersarrazin3474 nope ... Try again
Is it that one glass that collapsed at 6.5 magnitude mark?
I experienced a 5.6 and 6.4 in one day 4 hours within each other, Didnt really feel much during the first earthquake since i was driving at that time, but did feel it when the stronger 6.4 struck, the chandelier in my home was swinging like crazy.
where did you experience this quake?
@@EarthquakeSim East Java, on 22 March 2024.
Earthquake scientist here. Great video, but a few caveats I've noticed. Los Angeles is in a basin, which will amplify seismic waves and trap them, making shaking more prolonged and at a higher intensity. Also, the duration of your quakes do not scale. A 5.0 lasts about 4-5 seconds. A 6 around 20 seconds. A 7 around 1-2 minutes. A 7.5 around 2-3 minutes. An 8 around 4 minutes. The San Andreas Fault in SoCal has the potential to produce up to an 8.3 if it ruptures 400 miles from the Salton Sea to Parkfield.
Hi! I am so happy to have more earthquake scientists on my channel so that we can all improve my content!! Every earthquake has its own variables and you are right about the scale. If you are in a larger building with many floors, a magntiude 5 earthquake could be felt for longer since the building gains momentum during the shaking. Also, I think the magnitude 7.1 Ridgecrest was only felt for about 20 seconds, relatively short for its magnitude. For the LA basin any quake would last longer since as you mentioned, the sediments amplify and trap the waves like a bathtub. Where are you from? :)
@@EarthquakeSim I'm from SoCal :) and yes, what you said is indeed correct. I will say, these animations are quite useful and fun to watch. Great job on producing them! The damage we see for the magnitude is expected.
@@bluesnote1 awesome! I’m flying often to soCal and my next trip to LA is scheduled in about 3 weeks.
1:31 Who's here after a Magnitude of a 5.3 Earthquake shakes Bakersfield CA sending shockwaves to Southern California
Here from South LA
@@Nobody-lh7dv It was felt in BELL GARDEN CA TOO
its so sad to see the US Bank tower fall in the end. Thats like the Centerpiece of the DTLA skyline. But the other modern towers seem almost indestructible!
Skyscrapers and other tall buildings (even ones under construction) won't crumble. Japan in 2011 went through a 9.0 and several minutes of shaking, only the smaller buildings suffered severe damage and LA's building codes are similar. The viaduct would not collapse in anything less than a 7.5. Even pre-earthquake retrofitted LA experienced a 6.7 in 1994 with only a few isolated bridge collapses in the northern part of the metroplex.
I saw GeologyHub's "Really Big One" then headed here. I was in Hawthorne, CA for the 1987 5.9 Whittier-Narrows quake. As a native SoCal resident, I thought for about 10 seconds that it might be "The Big One", as it kept intensifying as the seconds rolled by, house felt as if it was on a lake rocking back and forth. Northridge at the same location was stronger, quickly hit hard but did not intensify as much as Whittier. I think the foothills between me and the epicenter dampened the intensity on that one, plus a little further away. Thanks for this!
@@Jeff_The_Weatherman thank you so much for coming here and for sharing your experience :) earthquakes can be felt very differently depending on the type of soil underneath your building too, and definitely the foothills had a dampening effect
Watching this as my feet are kicked up in my downtown Los Angeles apartment! 😂😂😂
16:00
Fuck, there goes my CEO office in GTA
I miss playing GTA!!!
I slept through the Hector Mine quake. 7.1 magnitude. Slept right through it. At the time it happened, we lived in the mountains near Big Bear Lake, so we were actually somewhat close to the epicenter - well, a lot closer than LA. I had a dream that I was in a free fall and shooting a machine gun. I woke up, then my mom came in and asked if I felt it? I looked at her and said: "felt what?" lol I also slept through the Northridge quake, at that time we lived in the San Gabriel Valley so close, but not scary close. I was wide awake for all of the aftershocks though.
@@michlo3393 thanks for sharing this!! How did you discover this video? :)
@@EarthquakeSim It came across my feed. I'm a subscriber.
What a coincidence, I’m in LA right now 😅
Haha wow! When did you discover my earthquake simulations?
@@EarthquakeSim I got recommended by one of your videos a few months ago. Keep up the great work
NO WAY! 😱
Top quality work! Glad I came across the channel 🤙🏼
Idk if you’ve already done it or not but do you plan on making a simulation of the Northridge quake of ‘94? I was 3 when it happened and it’s weird because I still remember bits and pieces of that morning.
@@Verdant00_ i did simulate that earthquake many times, look up my 30 year Anniversary video of the quake :)
I'll never forget it, there was a 5.5 earthquake in 2014 at 6:00 AM on St. Patrick's Day in LA, I was 13. I woke up seeing a large potted plant in my room shake side to side pretty violently. All the other ones I've felt were more subtle like a rolling pin (or being like one quick bump), but this one was static and kept going for a solid 5 seconds.
Thank you so much for sharing this! It seems like there is an earthquake draught in LA :)
I drove during the 4.8 Earthquake in New Jersey ( I live in Philadelphia but was closer to Epicenter with travel to my car dealer) and I felt like my car was going over weird humps in the road with it jostling left to right but the road but it was completely flat. I didnt know there was an earthquake until I got a text asking if I felt one lol
wow! this is quite a unique story about that earthquake! thanks for sharing with everyone here on my channel :)
@@EarthquakeSim Thanks for noticing! I saw your video on the Rampao fault line right when it came out lol. Glad this one didnt seem to be on that fault line

This was very good, though chilling! Left me feeling emotional. As a SoCal native who has lived through many quakes, I'm always on guard for the Big One. Maybe you could do a vid featuring the Palos Verdes fault and its effects on LA? I have a particular interest in this as I live in the South Bay!
I could do the Palos Verdes fault :) when did you discover my channel?
@@EarthquakeSim A few days ago when this vid popped up as a recommendation.
I forgot to add the biggest earthquake I was in: Loma Prieta in San Francisco October 17th 1989. I was at the A’s-Giants World Series game! 15 seconds of pure adrenaline and fear!
Woooww you’re the first person I meet who was there at the game!!!!!!
@@EarthquakeSimI was a Giants fan. Unfortunately when the series resumed we were swept 🧹 that’s baseball ⚾️ for you. I’m a Dodgers fan now. Ultimate betrayal I’m sure as my San Francisco friends say.

✋
I just felt it!! Reminded me to check out this video again haha!

So did I and I’m still shaking I’m so so scared
@@esmeraldarubi4502 as scary as earthquakes seem to be, the chances of severe injuries are extremely low. People have 1000x more chances to get injured in a car accident
I survived the Northridge Earthquake in Los Angeles 1994. Lived in Studio City area at the time. Whole apartment was bouncing up and down at 4:30 in the morning. Place was thrashed. Everything hit the floor. A few days later we moved into a house where I felt safer. The following year I transfered with my job to Oakland, California where I spent 3 years. The entire time I experienced only one slight earthquake which occured the same day Princess Diana was in that horrible car accident. Been living on the east coast since 1998 but still have many friends in California who I worry about because of the quake threat.
Thank you so much for sharing this with us! How long did you feel the shaking in Studio City?
i am a socal native and i despise earthquakes!! they scare me so bad! honestly i probably think about earthquakes everyday. this probably isn’t the best place to live for someone with this fear but like i can’t do anything about it right now 😬😣
Funny how we just felt a 5.3 last night. Biggest I've felt was a 7.1 years ago that happened on July 4th/5th.
Yup....I felt all three

@@tallr264 and a big one today!
@@He4Fr yup, the last second is heavy shaking, a lot of stuff on my wall is shaking

Those buildings are so strong,very nice

(Sorry for my english)
Your English was perfect!! Thank you 🥳❤️
I love how the effort was put in to make these buildings sturdy for the video. The buildings on the San Andreas fault are made to be super sturdy.
thank you so much!!
6.3 in New Zealand 🇳🇿, absolutely destroyed a modern first world city called Christchurch. It’s shocking how much damage each small increase in Magnitude causes, a couple of years later I was in the Capital city Wellington and there was a 6.9 just south. I was in one of the tallest buildings in the city working on lever 18 or so, and I cannot describe the sound that high rise buildings make when they rock back and forward and slam into each other. People screaming, dust coming down from the ceilings, look out to the window and see the bright, clear blue sky filled with hundreds of thousands of birds flying in panic, lights flickering, and everyone under their desks with water bottles and phones… screaming. Absolutely terrifying, I will never forget it. Thank goodness for our building codes.
Thank you so much for your feedback! High rise buildings are designed to withstand phenomenal forces during an earthquake. I am happy you are safe! There’s been many many powerful earthquakes, and so far no high rise buildings ever collapsed. The new building codes are definitely working. Anything that is made with unreinforced bricks or older 1960s non ductile reinforced concrete would be problematic
I wonder what are the names of the tall buildings in the back ground so i wont be in them ever since they are collapsing.
curious on thoughts with the game Horizon Forbidden West, Burning Shores, As it takes place in LA (1000 years after the fall of humanity)
and LA got hit by some sort of catastrophic level earthquake that managed to sink most of the city and lift almost horizontally most of downtown. Also spawned volcanic activity with lava flows.
Things I look at in video games that most wouldn't ponder.
Love your SIMs. It gave me a chuckle seeing coconut palms in L.A.
i still find it funny in song "CA ❤", THEY repeat " shake it, baby, shake it"😆😆😆 as they sing about California
True haha!!
Mag Seven was so strong it made part of the freeway fly UP.
Once the vertical ground acceleration pass 1G you start getting things that fly around
The U.S bank tower collapse during an earthquake 😢
That scenario is purely imaginary:)
Just imagine, you’re chilling in your high-rise apartment in the middle of LA, when all of a sudden an earthquake comes and obliterates the building next to you, violates a bridge and a Ferris wheel in the distance, And then proceeds to bring down a building next to you😭
Buildings in downtown LA are very strong against earthquakes. The building codes have been changed many times since the Sylmar quake in 71

So nostalgic
The Strongest is 6.0 or plus Damage in L
A. since the 1994 Northridge Earthquake
Any companies I should invest in that I can make a profit in if the earthquakes ever hit LA?
Seems like construction located outside the state and security would be good
Plss try the magnitude 7.3 and magnitude 7.6 in Philippines the magnitude 7.3 is located on bangued abra and the magnitude 7.6 is located on mindanao
Saw this video a week or two back, used it just now to show my Indianan boyfriend about what the earthquake felt like that just happened! 4.6! Quite a shaky one too!
Thank you so much for remembering about my video! :)
Shlt bro's. La made out ok at the lvl 8. Well, except for those 2 apt building that pancaked.
6.5 collapses the highway? Hmm idk
The Sylmar earthquake was 6.6 and it collapsed portions of the interstate 210 and interstate 5 :)
I experienced the 1992 Landers 7.2. Whoa, Nelly! There was a dozen magnitude 6+ aftershocks for months.
I wonder how this will affect the local trout population 16:30

Awesome simulations as usual. For me it's the 8.8 Maule 2010 earthquake in Chile. I was ten
Thank you so much friend! 8.8 wow!!
Hello, can you do this Mexico City earthquake, between 1985 and 2017. Please, greetings from Mexico City, mayor Venustiano Carranza
Greetings! I will consider that
Is there a possibility that you can simulate what will happen to buildings when the West Valley Fault in the Philippines ruptures?
Yes I can simulate that :)
@@EarthquakeSimoh that should be great btw i lived in Philippines
This looks like the disaster from 2012
This is dope! I will say, I don’t think a 6.5 is taking down buildings and highways though. Maybe in Haiti but not LA lol.
I do agree that for that scenario, the damage is too much. Perhaps 50 years ago, for example the Sylmar quake was only 6.6 and there were collapsed buildings
I am from the Northern Part of the cascadia fault line and it would be quite interesting to see a simulation for Seattle
I totally agree!
Great set of simulations. I don’t know how you are adjusting for distance to the fault rupture, but the San Jacinto Fault is 50-100 km away from downtown LA, so the shaking would be reduced considerably.
That’s why you mostly saw about 0.3G acceleration for downtown:) and long period seismic waves
@@EarthquakeSim Thanks for the explanation. I hope that no freeways collapse in LA from a magnitude 6.5 earthquake that far away. They are supposed to be retrofitted to handle that level of shaking.
Can you simulate Minato City, Tokyo ?
Yes I can definitely do that!

I am from Los Angeles, California and I help built some of those buildings doing construction I was in construction for almost 10 years and those skyscrapers are built to extend a 9.0 to a 9.3 magnitude quake let see how this simulation is reality of earthquake in downtown Los Angeles I’m speaking of those tall skyscrapers of downtown Los Angeles I was in the 6.7. They said it was a seven but in reality it was a 6.8 because of the insurance companies did not want to get to reporting that it was a 6.8 in February 1994 4:31 in the morning I was in that quick downtown tall skyscraper was wasn’t even touched one year later it was reported as a 6.8 magnitude quake and yes, that was a strong quake. I was in it.
Thank you for sharing your valuable feedback!
I cannot see that the skyscrapers does being built or the one that’s in the picture that collapse in a 6.5 quake that’s not accurate. Those buildings are built too strong to to fall in a 6.5 quake Now I do know in 6.8 earthquake that happened in February 1994 at 4:31 AM in the morning a portion of the freeway collapse and part of the interstate freeways collapse, where the police officer was going to work on his motorcycle and he went off the bridge that collapsed and failed his death. He saw that the bridge was out and he scared his motorcycle, but it was too late. He slid off, so I remember that very well.
The building fell in the magnitude 6.5 most likely because it was a non ductile reinforced building built in the 70s. + soil liquefaction/failure. There’s about 40 of these buildings in the whole LA basin
That’s crazy we get earthquakes preview in GTA 6 before GTA 6⁉️⁉️⁉️
Yes indeed 😀😀
only the us bank tower fell, but not the other buildings
Because that was a purely imaginative scenario :)
My biggest earthquake was a 6.3 and it was only 12km away from us!! (Not deep btw) And yeah nothing happened...
Thats bc i live on Chile
Thank you for your feedback!:)
Sorry for any misunderstanding, I hope you make me understand. I don't know if you have already done an earthquake simulation in structures such as the Chinese wall, Taipei, New York, the Colpatria or Bacata tower, colonial structures or villages, the US Capitol, the Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, the Mayan structures in Mexico or Guatemala etc. I really admire your simulations.
