    Back in the summer of 1977, I was camping with friends on the bank of a Lillooet River in Pemberton BC, when in the evening we were hit by an earthquake. I couldn't believe my eyes, the ground beside the river was rolling light waves on the ocean. I was awestruck. For about 10 to 15 minutes later, you could hear the rocks on the surrounding mountains, which is all black volcanic rock surrounding Pemberton, rolling down in the mountainsides. We found out later that it was a 5.5 earthquake , centred just west of us under Sechelt, BC. Very exhilarating, but that was a small one. I’ll never forget it.

    Cascadia is the “hold my beer” of fault lines. San Andreas has no evidence of ever unzipping the entire length of the fault line as well where as Cascadia does. A San Andreas magnitude 7 and up would be bad, for sure. The Cascadia is nightmare fuel. The northwestern states are woefully underprepared for this earthquake.

    Anyone that has studied either fault, the Cascadia and San Andreas knows the true and correct information. The Cascadia did set off a 9.0 back in 1700 in January and caused a mega tsunami that sent waves hitting Alaska, Japan, California, Washington, Oregon, Canada, and looking at today, if a 9.0 or greater hit the Cascadia now which it will as Japan, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Chile, All have clearly shown what would happen on our end, then the devastation would be tremendous . Including the mega tsunami which we have never seen on the West Coast/ PNW. Now the New Madrid is not new, just awaken probably due to the idiotic Fracking that has been going on, may cause more of a 6.7 which is bad in those areas.

    A large New Madrid quake probably would impact the country more. It would disrupt 2 major east west crossings (St. Louis/I-70, and Memphis/I-40, and I-55 runs north/south througg both, along the Mississippi River, the largest river and a logistic corridor in its own right). Major railroads, trucks, barges would all be impacted. Planes couldnt handle all that cargo. Hopefully, the damage would be limited, and the worst case scenarios averted. Most importantly, i hope lives of the good people in that region (as well as Cascadia, if an earthquake were to hit there) would be spared.

    I know that this video is mostly about earthquakes, but there is another HUGE cataclysmic event looming as well, the Yellowstone super volcano threat. Since these are all quite possible in terms of probability and potential destruction, the super volcano actually has much more potential for utter calamity than that of the earthquakes. The immediate damage from the quakes will have the potential for localized bedlam and will be quite costly in lives and property damage, but the volcanic discharge from Yellowstone would disrupt the climate to such a degree that it has the potential of killing off most species on a mass extinction level in many cases, and civilization would take possibly centuries to rebound, if it could. Now, what if all 3 happened in the near same time frame? No one is prepared for such a thing. You can't prepare for such a thing. No one in the PNW is ready or prepared for that to do if Cascadia were to rip. No one in the New Madrid region is prepared for the massive amounts of death and destruction in that region, and how in the world can any population anywhere ready itself for Yellowstone? Let's face it, we're all just passengers on this planet, and when and if it wants to kill us, it can do it easily. So... why worry? There is nothing that scientists can do, no engineers can prepare us for any of it in reality. All we can do is deal with it when it happens, if we CAN deal with it, and there is little that we can do if it goes south. Sometimes there is just nothing you can do but stand there in complete awe of what is happening and just...

      I believe Cascadia & New Madrid devastations would hit first before Yellowstone. You forget the Long Valley & Valles Calderas (CA & NM). Yes they are not as large as Yellowstone but their eruption rate are more frequent than Yellowstone. Long Valley is showing signs of being alive & CA population is about 39 million. In terms of death, Long Valley, Cascadia, then the New Madrid area (due to its geology).

    I live in Oregon. I'm not sure why you included Idaho, but yes, our Big One is supposed to be the true Big One. Given where the most seismic activity has been happening, the epicenter looks like it will be off the coast of southern Oregon, slightly SW of Coos Bay, OR. One of my kids lived in Coos Bay for the 1st 2 years of the pandemic, so I was very relieved when he moved back up here (northern Willamette Valley, near the Cascade foothills), where we theoretically will suffer less damage than everything west of Interstate 5. Guess we'll find out.

    Dude, do better research. I'm only 44 seconds in and you already got Cascadia wrong. The Cascadian Subduction Zone stretches from Vancouver BC to Northern California near Cape Mendocino, California. It will have minimal impact on Idaho, which "might" experience a 6.0 at worst, with Southern BC to NorCal experiencing upto a 9.0 during a full margin rupture, which isn't likely. Instead, it's likely to be an 8.4 or lower either near Crescent City, CA or Vancouver, BC, which means Idaho will feel it, but won't be terribly impacted.

    New Madrid fault history
    When the fault ruptured
    The Mississippi River buckled causing the river to split in half
    The surrounding area ground rose 15 feet or fell 15 feet
    Causing the Mississippi to stop flowing and run backwards
    Coal chunks, pressurized water and sulfuric gasses made breathing near impossible
    Days turned into night the land vomited out the forests and its people
    Whole towns were swallowed by gaping holes as was the river
    This earthquake lasted and its aftershocks lasted a YEAR
    When it was over the Mississippi changed it’s course into what it is today
    If this earthquake happened today America trillions of Americans would be lost.
    This Earthquake made church bells ring in New York, Canada also had damage and a new lake was formed known as the Reel Foot Lake where tree stumps poke out of the Lake
    Source: on Shaky Ground
    Author Norma Hayes Bahnall
    In my opinion America would never recover
    Just think we have trillions of people, large cities and power plants
    Silly government has allowed Nuclear power plants in this area.
    It’s needless to say America would be crippled
    It’s farm land destroyed and poisoned
    It’s city’s erased
