As a Chilean, I must say Japan managed the damages from the 2011 earthquake quite well considering it was a 9.1 magnitude. Compared to the 8.8 that hit my country the year prior and people panicked and started looting.
A mega-earthquake would surely be a heavy blow to Japan. No country is immune to them. But considering this precedent, I trust the Japanese people will be able to handle this.
Fun fact: we did some drills with Japan after the 2010/2011 earthquakes so in case an earthquake occurred near Chile, we would give Japan a heads up and they could prepare for the following tsunami! Very interesting how seismically similar our countries are.
They prepared for the wronh earthquake tho. Their defences were based on the 1960 tsunami, not the 1000 year tsunami that occurred. They did a good job with what they had, but their defences were half the size they needed and their evaucuation points not far or high enough. They've learned though!
Keep an eye on California, things are gonna get really crazy when "the big one" hits there, it's pretty much guaranteed to be anywhere between 8-10.
That’s a culture difference because in Japan a huge collectivist culture is apparent. People are taught from a young age to be considerate of others and to help the community. Taking it too far with elements that make it look like 1984. Not falling in line will cause you to be ostracized. Dividing people and creating a society that cannot rebel.
Whereas in the West, we see individualism. From a young age people are taught that the world revolves around the individual and they shape their life. Again we see it going too far with people being selfish and society being divided with everyone branching off doing their own thing.
All must strike a balance between collectivism and individualism. Balance creates harmony in a society.
Most asian cultures are very big on collectivism but we arent droids or ants or bees.

Earthquakes can cause tsunamis, and also if you EVER see the tide at the beach suddenly retreat back away from the shore, it means a tsunami is on the way in a really short time! It means everyone NEEDS to get as far inland and preferably above sea level as possible. Also after the first wave of a tsunami, I'm pretty sure it's followed by more waves. ( I don't know if it ALWAYS comes in multiple waves in a smaller one, but i don't think it's worth going to the beach immediately after just in case.) stay safe and take the right precautions.
Would there be some early warning detection system?
@@Chillichez22 maybe? I guess it depends on the area but i would hope so. There's people who try to monitor things that have to do with natural disasters
@@Chillichez22 The National Data Buoy Centre monitors the ocean and yes they can give warnings (it’s their main job).
Yes there can be more than 1 wave and an after shock can also trigger tsunamis.
It’s worth looking up how they are created, how they travel and how the ocean floor affects them, the way water behaves is really interesting and scary.
@@hybrid9mm Agreed. Iirc the basic version is that the shock causes a high energy ripple which results in a very low (a few cm) and very fast wave deep in the ocean where the ocean floor is waaay below the surface of the water, then as the wave goes towards the surface the floor raises up gradually until it eventually reaches sea level at the shore. This causes the wave to slow down, but it keeps its high energy so it moves more water instead, becoming bigger. Not a hydrophysicist or anything, this is just the explaination i remember.
Earthquakes are trully scary since you could be having a good sleep and then hit with no warning at all, i think you did a great job explaining all of this
Well in Japan they pretty warn u before an earthquake.
hahaha the 2010 Chile 8.8 magnitude earthquake was at like 3 am
I was asleep for the 4 magnitude earthquake in America east cost. Most interesting way to wake up.
Yeah why dont they only allow earthquakes during day time 😡
worse, you could be shitting in public bathroom.
As someone living in the Pacific Northwest, I totally understand the fear. We are due for a magnitude 9 quake anytime in the next few decades known as the Cascadia mega-thrust quake, and the devastation from the tsunamis and shaking would be beyond belief. Our region is not nearly as prepared as Japan is either since until the early 2000s people incorrectly believed the Northwest was seismically inactive, and a lot of our infrastructure has not been designed to withstand a mega quake like this. To anyone living on the ring of fire, stay safe out there and take precautions.
Fellow PNW here, yeah I think about the Cascadia quake a lot, especially in these last couple of years... pretty scary stuff to consider, even if it's not imminent or anything 🥲 I live less than an hour from the coastal beaches, west of the I-5 so I'd definitely be in the danger zone
I hope they rename it from "mega-thrust" to something that is a little less hilarious 😅
isn't it 12% chance over the next 50 years?
it's worse here because earthquakes are so rare so we're completely unprepared
The New madrid fault is one that emergency management has been training for a 10.0 last time it happened the Mississippi River ran backwards.
I hope everyone stays safe
Thank you for the comment Captain Obvious
Not possible unfortunately
@@samc5602it is
@@kiryukazuma6078😒
I hope this shit never happens. It would be so devastating not just for Japan but for the rest of the world too.
Haven’t visited Japan yet. What a shame
It will. This is the reality of the Pacific Ring of Fire. You can read up on the 7.8 one that happened in the Philippines. That was notorious for its length and violence which eventually led to a really bad volcanic eruption in the region (and all the smaller quakes that happened during that period).
The frequency of the quakes happening in Japan at such high magnitudes has been very alarming. The issue here is that there seems to be no outlet for these quakes after so many of them. It will come so it's best to be prepared.
Unfortunately this is the reality.
I live in Scandinavia, we don't get natural disasters at all, we might get a really heavy rain fall, or some really hot summer days, but nothing more then that..
To me it seems almost impossible for someone to experience earthquakes more then once in their life, tsunamis seems extreme and tornadoes crazy.. But the reality is that this happens very often in places that are unfortunately very prone to these kinds of things.. I cannot imagine what its like, but i do understand that it does happen, we can only hope that Japan is prepared and gets through it with minimum damage, and if we have the funds, we can financially support them when it happens.
(Bonus: We actually had an earthquake in Denmark where i live.. at 06 in the morning, i slept through it, it was barely noticeable like a phone vibrating softly once. This was so uncommon everyone was talking about it and what they where doing and how they noticed it.. That's how uncommon it is here..)
I wanna visit Japan so badly
@@Gwenxwe are prepared we have regular notices and training. Also we can buy packs in department stores, combinis and supermarkets. I have lived with earthquakes for 25 years. If it happens it happens. It’s up to mother earth at the end of the day.
I was visiting Japan last week and the megaquake warning was issued a couple days into our trip. We were in the flower room at teamlabs Planets when the earthquake alert went off on the Friday and I thought it was gonna be the big one. Terrifying moment... hopefully nothing comes of this and everyone stays safe.
It's funny cos last week it went off when I was in Shinjuku station and no cared. I have not heard anyone talk or care about it but people online.
People aren't talking much, but they sure were panic-buying up all the rice and water near me haha.Oh well, it was about time I got around to making a kit anyways. Me and my gf joined in and grabbed some supplies just in case.
there was the typhoon, luckly it hit a day eariler then it was meant to but it was super mild. Alot of places shut down but i enjoyed it as was really cool, i could run more. Also was worried the denitst would cancel my appontment but that was open, but alot of people canneled so it was super chilli and and i almost fell asleep cos they cover your eyes with.
@@ragsdale710 People aren't talking much, but there are people who are acting TBH.
I work at a hotel in Shizuoka, and ever since the Miyazaki earthquake, the amount of people asking for hazard map of the city has increased from basically 0 to at least 1 person everyday.
Trying to buy a bottle water is pain now, and convenience stores have a paper with only one bottle per person thing sticked on the fridge etc.
@@saceurai6629 I know tourists seem to care about and alot of foreign residents but most people don't. I have not seen any limits for selling. Also if you are buy emergency water like that you are dumb cos supers sell big packs and you can also buy the Amazon brand next day big packs for way cheaper. The whole thing was really funny as they even said they had no evidence that a mega quake was more likely and then they sounded the all clear yesterday
I'm living in Osaka right now, and have been really struggling to find English resources regarding this, so this video is GREATLY appreciated
dogen also has a video on this topic that may interest you.
Important PSA: DURING the shaking, do not try to use the stairs! There are many incidents of people falling through the stairs BECAUSE the earth is still moving. Use the emergency exits and go down with precaution (do not run), an aftershock might hit while you are evacuating. Just, don't, run.
A related note about the shaking, the "seismic intensity scale" or "japanese intensity scale" is not like the "Magnitude" number you often see. "Magnitude" is like the kilotons of a bomb, is about the energy released, an intensity scale is about how it will feel in a particular place: will your lamp on your nightstand will fall? Will you be able to stand upright? etc. At an intensity of 6+ (there are 5-, 5+, 6- and 6+) is just impossible to stand up. That is what the scale tries to convey, it is a scale meant to convey danger to normal people (regardless of how deep, far, or powerful the earthquake was).
It is important to also read and apply the advice of preparedness guidelines. At an intensity of even 4, objects might fall around your house: a TV might hit you while sleeping if you sleep close to it; or boxes or heavy stuff put on a high shelf. Be aware of your everyday surroundings and change them to improve your safety / reduce accidents.
@@sdlion7287 It's personally pretty weird to hear that a 4.0 can make things fall over, as we get the occasional 3.5 where I currently live in Quebec, and you rarely notice them more than it seeming like a semi truck passed by your house.
Thanks for the info though, I'm moving to Yamaguchi next month for at least a year, so its something I'll also pass on to my class mate who is going with me.
@@Venicilia it is important to make clear that the numbers are not interchangeable, they do not represent the same thing.
Imagine there's an explosion of "3.5" in the other side of the country, you will feel it different compared to if it happens just outside your backyard. But the explosion would still be "3.5", that is Magnitude, a quality of the event itself.
The japanese escale on the other hand, measures what is felt in a certain place. If that 3.5 explosion happens on the other side of the country, you would have measured "0 intensity" in your house. If that same 3.5 explosion happens in your backyard, it would measure "6- intensity" because it would break your windows. Even if it is still the same "3.5" magnitude.
This is what I mean with "it's a scale for people". People do not care about an event they cannot feel (a 7.5M earthquake on a different country) but they will care about an earthquake that felt 6+ where their family lives.
@@Venicilia
You are confusing the Japanese intensity scale (a score) with the Richter scale (logarithmic energy value).
The Japanese scale is split in levels of danger, in 6 steps subdivided (like a tierlist). The Richter scale is purely mathematical (like a thermometer) and can go above 10, even if it never happened.
@@Veniciliabro they just explained it to you
5:30 Hi. Geologist (Almost) here. Although an earthquake can trigger an eruption if it's greater than magnitude 6 (USGS service), a volcano must be positive to erupt, and not every active volcano is going to explode. In this case I don't know exactly about the conditions of magma underneath Mount Fuji, but if it doesn't have enough gases bottled up, an eartquake causing an eruption is very unlikely.
Almost? So you're not a geologist? You aren't a doctor until you actually have a doctorates degree lol.
@@heyitsFluxxy we can clearly see you have your asshole degree good job
P.s looking at your recent comments. Being an absolute dick doesn't make you any more right
@@heyitsFluxxy you can study a field and be knowledgeable without your degree
@@heyitsFluxxy Geology is not a doctorate, is a degree. Im missing 1 signature to get my degree. That's it.
@@heyitsFluxxy This is why they almost have a degree and you don't. lmfao
Oh, tip! Put your important papers organized in a folding folder thing and put it in a waterproof fishing bag. Grab, go, evacuate! Keep 72 hours of MREs per person in your car. Keep a couple of cases of water ready to grab on your way out. You can never be too prepared.
Unfortunately, cars won't be any option in this one. Not only because of complete destruction of infrastructure, just like the big earthquake in Fukushima, the roads will immediately be stuck with traffic as no traffic lights work. Everyone is panicking and trying to leave - they aren't going to be charitable with yielding.
@@ZigzagtigerJapan also isn’t anywhere near as dependent on cars as the US is, and even getting a license is very difficult
Title made in poor taste
Ok? Does it offend you?
@@CaramelColoredcould scare people more than necessary, which is ironic
@@EyelessAugust Annnnd? WHo the hell cares if someone is scared? Get over it.
I agree. As a Japanese, I felt uncomfortable.
I don't like the business of stirring up anxiety and irresponsible fear.
今の時代に、貴方のように冷静な人がいるのは救いだ。
Thank you so much for this video! I'm actually about to move to Japan here within a month to teach English, and I will be living in the Nankai Trough Area... this video was much needed for me to see, to say the least. Thank you! It's been rough trying to find more information because I do not live in Japan currently, so thank you for the information!
Pretty much no one really cares here and the mega quake alert is over as well
To be honest we are used to them. Yes the first one you experience is scary. But after that you live with it. You either get used it or you don’t. Just make sure you are in the know and you have emergency supplies. 2011 was hard on my family but we got through it
Be sure to prepare emergency supplies and get the NERF app on your phone for earthquake and other disaster warnings in your area.
I'm also moving to Japan next month, but will be a little further at Yamaguchi than the expected epicenters. Hope you stay safe, and good luck with the teaching job!
@@Venicilia neither of you are moving to Japan.
everybody lives in Japan on the internet. too many weebs
As a cali native, I completely understand the fear. We have also been having quite a few small quakes the last couple weeks. Feels like we are finally getting close to "the big one" as we call it
Everytime I see the news im like 😬 hope the aftershock isn't the big one. Biggest ive ever felt is a 5.6 which is pretty annoying but I live 50 feet from the San andreas fault so 🤷♀️
i was looking for this comment. wasn’t it within the last week that we got one, it woke me up out of my sleep! and several more before that throughout the summer. i just moved here so it’s gotten me pretty nervous being originally from the east coast we don’t have earthquake drills so i had to figure out what to do in an event of an earthquake and hope that my apartment’s infrastructure are made well enough to withstand it.
I believe we had two earthquake within a span of a week. One towards Anaheim and one right above Los Angeles. As what some are saying, the San Andreas Fault isn't the one we should be scared of right now, it's the Pasadena Fault. The earthquake that shook Los Angeles last week was real close to the Pasadena Fault.
If I recall didn't some areas get artificial earthquakes due to heavy rains before
I’m near South Pasadena and we had a 4.3 one recently that felt like a 7. It was the strongest I’ve felt ever in my 21 years of living lol
Nice, just when my exchange to Japan starts, I’ll get to maybe experience this sht
Me too….
same, holiday for first time to Jp..
Same…
same.... firts time visiting in about a month from now
You all had to join in during the earthquake Arc 🙄.Okay but being serious I hope you all can stay safe 🙏.
Wtf is this title? Are you serious?
i send all my condolences from Chile, coming from a country that earthquakes are pretty recurrent, is pretty devastating what is happening in Japan, i hope all the best and be prepare just in case, i hope everything is ok and nothing bad happen there, so much hugs and bless to Japan. ❤
Indonesia issued the same warning as well. The megaquake line stretched from Aceh to Maluku (the tip of Sumatra to Maluku, which if you googled it, it's pretty far), and that includes the entire Java as well. Even though the line is far from land, it could hit us about 7-6 SR inland. Worse if it's at the beach, which from my prediction, is about 8 SR and caused a tsunami as well.
Even though the Nankai Trough is far, i think everyone will be effected, not just Japan, but to the entire nation that are inside the Ring of Fire.
Honestly that’s scary to think of especially since where I live there have been quite a lot of good sized quakes
Philippines had similar concern for 5 years now
They expect an 7-8.0+ earthquake on the National Capital region, they estimate the death toll to be around 30,000 deaths MINIMUM. giving that the area is one of the most densely populated city in the world.
As a person who work on a high-rise building, I always join the regular earthquake drill we have, I also bought an earthquake Emergency kit i found on a hardware store near my office,. Its just a very small bag that contains first aid, hand-crank flashlight, and a multitool with a whistle just in case you get trapped under the debris.
At least you guys in the Philippines do the drills. Last time they did an eruption drill around Vesuvius (which is shaking a lot lately) my fellow Italians either went IDGAF or botched everything in their confusion.
We haven't had a bad tornado in our area in the last 50 years.
Last month we had an EF3 pass our house. We had no power for 6 hours.
I wish the people who were hit are safe and recovering..
I'm traumatized.
I truly believe we are witnessing a major shift in nature, too much damage has been done, earth will always strike back.
My grandpas live in Texas, they told me the same thing: they are having increasingly bigger tornadoes and storms, old people from the town have become the leaders because they are the only ones to have lived trough something similar, so they have become the only ones with any semblance about what to do, they told me even firefighters are listening and taking notes.
Dark, and dangerous time we live in friend, but we must keep forward.
Only six hours without power that is really good 😮
In PR a small storm and a week without power 😂
losing power for 6 hours 🤣🤣
I pray for you and the people of Japan.
Jesus is savior

Nah, it's clickbait. Even if the Nankai Trough earthquake hits, there will be some casualties, but Japan will not end. The title "could be the end" is clearly clickbait. All the titles on youtube like 'it's over' 'The End' are clickbait.
@@user-vz5gi5tw9x bro you literally just said it “could be the end” he’s not saying Japan is going to end, it just creates suspense. I think you’ve got the meaning of the word “clickbait” wrong.
It's definitely click bait. Who cares though?
@@afailableIt's definitely not a clickbait. Who cares though?
This stuff happens here in Japan ALL the time. People get hurt here by natural disasters yearly. Japan is by far the most efficient country to deal with it. Be prepared, not scared.
Yes I grew up in both PNG and North Qld. I've experienced both earthquakes up to 7 and tropical cyclones. Being informed and being prepared was the norm.
Problem is this one is likely to activate the volcano there so have a breathing mask or face covering and steer clear of the mountain and you should be okay
This possible Nankai Trouɡh earthquake is probably related to the possible "The Big One" earthquake that we call and will happen in the Philippines...
Omg you think so? I'm on the west coast of the US and we also learn and prepare for the Big One since we're little kids- we never thought it'd actually happen in our lifetimes 😭
You got any deep earth crust drilling experiments financially backed by USA there by any chance? Something fun like atomic study, I'm talking exclusively about harmless neutrinos, of course.
You remember how Spanish-American war happened in Philippines? Maybe Sapin and USA will fight an underground war in Manila, that'll be a "big one" in post-Einstein world.
I don't think so. It's a completely different area and this subduction zone is completely different from the one beneath the Philippines.
@@13_cmi I really hope you're right. I just thought that there's a chance that it could trigger the fault since it's been almost 400 years since it moved and it could happen anytime now...
@@wormgf I'm aware of that "Big One." While we all lie on the Pacific Ring of Fire, I really hope there's a zero chance that all of these things will happen subsequently or sequentially.
As a foreigner planning to move with my wife to Japan in the near future, i greatly appreciate the video you did on the topic! We'll also check out aki's series on this topic! Stay safe!
I used to live on Vancouver Island. The ring of fire is right under the island, Been waiting for the big one for years.
Yep we are all just waiting for it. People have talked about it for years and its long overdue.
I think you'll be ok; from what I've heard it's probably Oregon that needs to worry.
The sad fact of any nation situated on the Ring of Fire is that stuff like this is inevitable.
I've never seen a clickbait title for the "end of a country" before, that's an all time new low. Jesus christ...
IKR. then he just proceeds to read an article. this is the stuff we don't need on youtube.

Tl;dr he baits the apocalyptics to tell them how they should actually be reacting instead of making them panic more.
@@hida_berserker8:08
@MawdyDev The ends don't justify the means. He's not the authority on earthquake information, so does not need to engage in deceitful tactics to "get the information out there."
@@LumiMoonCh would you rather that the people prone to misinformation click the actual misinformation first rather than his clickbaited actual information?
It's ok to be incorrect sometimes, there's nothing wrong with it, there is no benefit to doubling down.
He does guide to legitimate sources of information instead of pulling things out of thin air to fearmonger people, I'd argue that while normally clickbait is disgusting, it was used for a good purpose in this case.
After all, you clicked, didn't you?
10:14 IMPORTANT
This is how you using a clickbaity title to attract people into watching and learning about a serious issue! Great job! It’d be great to move the finding reliable English info about earthquakes part to the beginning of this video
Hope you guys stay safe
There is one building up in California Oregon Washington and Canada too. (Not seperate ones, the plates stretch that long) and it’s called The Big One. really scary.
I’m actually visiting Japan for the first time in 2 weeks so this was super helpful. Thank you for sharing!! >.
If Japan is afraid of quake, then it is over! I mean Japan is the most prepared country regarding quakes.
Indonesia is also preparing for quakes, but people here are mostly hopeless. They keep saying everything happens by the will of god -,-'
From Vancouver Island here! "The big one" (mega earthquake) has been a constant thing since I've been little. It scared my step mom (who lived in central BC) so much that every little earthquake we got she'd call me to make sure that Vancouver Island didn't sink yet. It's always best to be prepared in an earthquake prone area!
On another note, we always get Tsunami warnings after Japan gets earthquakes because we are almost directly across the ocean.
Wouldn't wanna live in Japan just because of all the earthquakes
You and me both. I have a fear of water and if something like that happens I would probably die from panic 😂
if you actually want to live in japan, i don't think you should let these kind of fears prevent you. though if you don't care to then you might as well not
Better love water in any case. When one day you wake up in Venice, Japan.
@@dogdjinn Yeah and there is still alot of things to love in the country and it's culture. Japanese people have been dealing with these countless of times since their inception. Due to this, it make actually makes Japan far more prepared when something like these happens. Still horrible, but considering these natural disasters, they still doing a great job dealing with this compared to other countries with similar natural disasters.

I live in Wellington NZ and basically my entire life we have been warned about the massive earthquakes that are due. We have a lot of dangerous fault lines directly through or close to us.
We don't get as many large ones as Japan and a 9.0 happening anywhere in that area would be felt heavily all over, but any buildings anywhere close would probably be destroyed and then anything along the coast would likely have another tsunami, hills/mountains would have landslides. I know buildings can be made to survive a 9.0 earthquake but I don't think that's standard or a guarantee.
I'm hoping in the future to move to Japan as I'm not afraid. Natural disasters can happen anywhere.
I was born in Upper Hutt in the 70s and moved to Japan in the 90s, I live in one of the places where this earthquake supposed to hit and have listened to people talking about it possibly hitting since the 90s…. we’ve had maybe six big earthquakes in Japan since I got here, none of those were predicted, it just seems to be fear mongering. Yes, the earthquake is gonna happen one day, so always prepare but don’t fear run your life.

Many countries have suffered this year because of climate change. My country N.Macedonia is burning. We've had about 400 wild fires this year that have burned about 6% of our country, and it looks like they won't stop. Many forests have become ashes, and even some villages have been wiped out.
Well, the weather can't be wrong or right.
@@DacLMK climate change e has nothing to do with this thing in particular?
@@DacLMK ClImate change doesnt cause earthquakes though, if any volcanic events actually can cause massive climate change as well which we have alot of histories in this planet that even causes massive extinction events.
But yeah earthquake and actual climate change are just double whammy.
@@DacLMK Fire is actually super good for a lot of forests and prairies. I'm not 100% sure about North Macedonia's forests and grasslands but maybe reintroducing periodic fires will help the plants thrive and reduce large wildfires like what we do in the U.S.
Who else watched Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 back in the day?
I haven't been to Japan since 2010 (for a month July-August), but I'd love to go again.
No matter where I travel I always bring a large backpack for all my luggage and a carry-on sized daypack big enough to fit all the essentials along with the occasional shop find (typically beer).
Every morning the smaller pack gets packed with a fresh change of clothes, sunscreen, an umbrella, a toothbrush, and a couple of other things like my spare glasses, new contact lenses + cleaning fluid, cash ($100 worth of local currency). Depending on the area and the climate, a pair of durable gloves as well. An extra pair of gloves if I'm already wearing a pair when I head out.
Wearing a pair of wet and cold gloves is horrendous.
If you're out and about and you can't get back to your accommodation for whatever reason, it really sucks if you can't even take care of yourself.
It's not like the thought of an earthquake scares me, but my Japanese teacher back in the day told me about not going to sleep without packing my most important stuff "just in case".
Always stock your hotel fridge with a bottle of fresh water (unless you really love the chlorinated water from the tap) and a Pocari Sweat - it might literally save the life of yourself or someone else.
The 2011 earthquake and tsunami could just as well have happened in 2010, you never know.
9:30 - This kind of information should be printed and handed out to every inbound passenger on every international flight and returned to the flight attendant with a signature.
I know people are on holiday, but that doesn't really help you when you're knee-deep in a landslide - induced by earthquake, heavy rainfall, etc.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Back when richter 8.0 was considered the scary thing, just 2x 7.0
Amateur hour, try taking the induced underground bombing quakes, that USA is studying with the Chikyuu vessel. What they're doing is TALK about earthquakes to cover for the radioactibe water exhaust discussion.
They had 7.8 quake in Tureky last year, and enogh time with the flotsam off the coast of Gaza that they can now shake up Syria and Lebanon, jsut had some rumblins of 5.0.

Hey @joey bizinger
Don't you think your clickbait titles are a little too much?
How can you think "This Could Be The End for Japan" when it's outlasted centuries of meqaquakes? I understand you're a youtuber who want views for money hence the clickbait titles. But saying "This Could Be The End for Japan" ? GTFO
so the warning's been lifted. My son and his pregnant wife like in Ibaraki (right near the coast) so it was very worrying
just recently moved to japan and this earthquake and recent typhoon has got me shaking in my boots. i really don’t mess around with this kind of stuff so im trying to fully prepare myself. hope everyone stays safe!
This is the norm. This is why Japanese people are so hardcore
I love Japan, but I don’t think I could ever live there, simply due to the natural disasters and volcanoes, my anxiety could never let me live there and be relaxed, I hope everyone stays safe
Stay safe Joey and Aki. Thoughts with ya hopefully everything will be okay for Japan
This is a crazy title, why would you say that Joey
So that people who would panic know how they should actually prepare instead of just panicking.
you got me worried there mate, fortunately i got akis video in the sidebar saying "this is NOT the end of japan" XD
I live in a city that is also prone to earthquakes. This year, we've experienced two pretty big earthquakes as we border with China and Kyrgyzstan. What I really understood after that is neither the population nor the authorities are ready for such a disaster. People weren't warned on time, and some of them got a message 6 hours after the earthquake. Later, we were informed that some money (a huge sum ofc) would be spent on the notification system and other necessary stuff. But, man, with the corruption level here, I'm not sure that all will be spent properly for the safety of people.
Title is such bs. Dude seriously...
This actually is unironically concerning, people seem to forget how often that plate boundary and troff spits out megaquakes, like every few hundred years.
Unlike America's Yellowstone which could explode anytime in like tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of years, Japan's troff quakes happen every few generations without fail and is almost overdue.
There is a problematic narrative going on; to be honest, it is strange, bizarre, and scary about a seriously destructive earthquake taking place on July next year.
OMG I live near Mount Fuji
Crucial Info ⏩ 9:38
Nothing will end Japan except for foreign immigrants
Correct
I remember learning about the history of the 1923 Great Kanto Earthquake in Japan, and it terrified me for weeks. It had an 8.2 magnitude, 7.0 aftershocks. There were over 140K deaths. This earthquake also caused tsunamis, landslides, and fire tornadoes as well!
I believe this was the inspiration of the Hellquake from the Violence Jack series.
That earthquake also was in "Taisho Otome Fairy Tale"
With the madlad of an mc literally walking to Tokyo to find his wife and make sure she's fine
Reminds me of that anime Japan Sinks 2020.
That anime was crazy. Even crazier that that'll probably happen one day.
You need to remember that Japan is literally just a volcanic island that sits right on top of a tectonic plate.
Practically suicide just living there, same goes for folk living in Iceland.
Hear me out... I will gladly volunteer to help and be shipped out to where i'm needed when it happens, I'm 26, fit, can take basic orders in Japanese. I can learn more as needed and will gladly do so. All i ask for in return is permanent residency. Is that fair?
I hope you 2 stay safe. For Earthquakes well that is why i do not live in Japan nor California, USA as Earthquakes happen often in both.
I am happy he just read the offical instructions as the others who covered it i got varying degrees of how serious it is.
Why is joey silent on his girlfriend buying CP from a known pdf file
The siren in the background felt rather fitting, given the circumstances, no?
This is certainly a worrying possibility.
My best to you, Aki and all Japan.
I wish I was going to the country sometime in the near future, especially during September, but, as of right now, it seems I won't get the chance for another 3-5 years, at best 😢
japan is strong country it survived ww2,atomic bomb,nuclear disaster,earthquake,typhoon,tsunami
most disaster resistant country
Great video, however, I think it was important to cover the difference between the magnitude (the push that happens underneath the Earth) and the actual force that hits the surface, tatoeba Miyazaki's magnitude was 7.1, (and all the international media cover it to be so), but according to the Japanese scale of Earthquakes it was 6 - . There are also a lot of data why scientists predicting a big Earthquake now, and not sometime else, because if you look into the history the most destructive Earthquakes in Japan happen every 100-120 years, and the last one was in 1946, if I'm not wrong, apart from 2011.
Earthquakes cant be effectively predicted , smaller quakes can be an indicator but i dont think humans have effectively predicted a large quake with accuracy to evacuate people.
Sure a megaquake is ' overdue ' , its overdue on the san andreas fault as well the runs thru north America..
If the Japanese gov have some additional tech, data points and indicators then it would be interesting to read thru. Good to stay prepared but too much info can cause anxiety
I live in Florida. We're usually hit by nasty destructive hurricanes in my area. Natural disasters suck.
benar, memang sudah dipastikan kalau dalam waktu dekat jepang akan mengalami kekacuan besar yang membuat mereka (jepang) akan hancur
Hey Joey Indonesia also have same problem but if in Japan you have Nankai in Indonesia we have few of them but Sundanese take special consern from our Indonesian siencetist. That thing has been silence for to long which mean there is possibility that thing have huge potencial energy which could wipe out many coastal cities along southern Javanese and Sumatran island.
I will be going to Japan early next year and I am pretty worried hearing about this megaquake...
My brother is telling me not to worry so much because Japan is prepared for the IF.
But I can't help but worry, especially since I will be going along this quake line,,,
3:50 video starts.
A had bad drims of earthquake ... But it did not think it waz Japan ... It waz sam wer els with 10 story buildings... Some old ones made bad falling... And the new ones in a different way better way.

Joey: this could be End for Japan
His GF: This is NOT the end of Japan.
Please for the name of god change the title, it is unecessery clickbaity and fear mongering, I live in mega qucke issue area, and every 70, 80 to 100 one is happening… Japanese and Japan is always ready, people live as normal and we all know what to do what happens, it is hard for people since issue is warned, the title like this stirrs more panic than needed
Take good care and keep us updated :3 Thanks for this video!!!
I'm going to Japan in early September, definitely looking forward to the pop-up shop, I will stop by for sure. Also a bit scared now for what will hopefully not happen any time soon.
thank you joey for todays video, i hope everyone stays safe.
you know these things wont get easier to handle again, climate change is already hear and extreme weather phenomens will get more and more common now. good job politics and humanity btw... crazy how we get here with us basically watching on the sidelines saying "ahhh as of right now it doesnt matter to me as i am not the one who has to deal with it currently", problems for later right? noooo.
I was in Japan during the Fukushima quake. I was in Osaka but everything shook for a full minute. When we saw that the epicenter of an earthquake that long and which felt strong to us, was so far away, we knew it was historic. I am hoping that whatever hits, hits places that aren't populated and creates less damage. At least Japan as a country is relatively prepared for earthquakes but in the end, Mother Nature is very powerful and sometimes there is nothing we can do.
The thing about the Japanese and their society is that they’re NOT a bunch of jackasses. I have faith that they will survive:
Having experienced the nightmare that was The Fukushima Earthquake, that alone deterred me from staying in Japan after my military service ended.
I sure hope and pray y’all are safe over there. Not just because all the things I like are over there, but because of this might be worse than Fukushima, then that’s an experience no one deserves to have to deal with.
hope everyone takes care and would be a good time to remind everyone of something we do here in my country prepare food(canned food), radio, water, a whistle and other basic necessity stuff you need aside of that south america is and has been warned about also having a very big earthquake happening though doubt as much as Japan since Japan has much more big history with them nonetheless the tsunamis caused by both earthquakes would they happen will be very bad for everyone. again everyone please be safe try to search about how to make a bag with all they things i mentioned earlier and try to learn on how to act in an earthquake.
It's obvious how much effort went into this!
the MegaQuake within the next 30 years so it mightn happen this year
I currently live a couple hours away from Miyazaki. The day of the earthquake we were having a pretty big storm (it’s been thundering a lot lately) and the earthquake hit at the same time as lightning did. Was quite a surprising experience. Earthquake was also one of the strongests I’ve felt while I’ve been in Japan. I also remember feeling the aftershocks, specially one that woke me up at dawn. Pretty scary, honestly.
“Disinformation” yet still wants to use clickbait titles. Classic. Do better.
I’ve got family in Osaka so I really appreciate you bringing this to my attention, Stay safe bro.
dont want to live in fear forever, or over scare people
names video could this be the ens
🤨🙄
Stay safe Joey!❤
Imagine having an earthquake app because it happens so often
You scared me a bit because next week I’ll travel to Japan, but thx for the infos, I really home nothing too bad is gonna happen
eh, earthquakes are insanely hard to predict. California has been due "the big one" for decades now and no big earthquakes yet.
Californian here. We've been here going about our lives while waiting for "The Big One" for 35 years now. I live 10 miles from Napa, when in 2014 a 6.0 earthquake struck around 3AM. When the shaking stopped I just fell back asleep.
Lucky, haha. I was living near the epicenter when it happened, my dresser fell over and nearly crushed our cat.
My younger brother was sleeping in a different spot on the couch than usual that night, if he had been in his usual spot then the heavy furniture which wasn't strapped like it was supposed to be would have smashed him.
I was in high school when it happened.
earthquakes are not the main problem (im chilean so im used to them) but the tsunami wave(s)
