    I was looking to moving into the building that collapsed 😥😓 but my mother kept asking me to move closer to her, thank GOD that I listened to her cause I wanted a first floor apartment and I would have been crushed along with my husband and two little girls if we had moved in... May the people who died there rest in peace 😢😢😇

      My wife (at the time) and I looked into moving there a few years before the quake. So scary. I was living near Chatsworth High when the quake hit. It was really really bad.

    Where the tractor trailer and two cars are up in the air....wow! I remember seeing that on TV and imagined “How would that feel to be up there like that?”. It’s a miracle that nobody was at the spots where the highway collapsed.

      Now that I think of it, I don’t remember how they were rescued… I don’t remember if a helicopter landed there or whether they used fire ladders or how it actually happened - that must’ve been an incredibly eerie feeling - glad they e were saved.

    A weird thing that happened to my wife and I - we just happened to be at the Improv the night before, leaving late and getting on the Santa Monica Fwy at 1:30 am...3 hours later all hell breaks loose, with the SM Fwy losing one of the overpasses we were on...

    The Northridge Hospital had "baby aprons" made for NICU patients evacuation. They used them in this quake. A perfect pocket for each baby, a place for IV bags and nurses carrying oxygen tanks. Each nurse could carry 6 babies if necessary. It was successful! All babies were evaluated to a safe hospital.

      Me too! I was only 9 and I swear it traumatized me! The aftershocks alone made me a nervous wreck because the apartments next door had completely crumbled. I was so scared to go to bed at night.

    There’s was a lot of UFO activity the night before and the morning after the earthquake hit. My family was a witness to the ufo phenomenon, they were very low towards the Topanga mountains.
