      Thanks from Taiwan. Earthquakes are common here, but definitely not this massive kind. The "nature call" woke everybody in our dormitory up 8 in the morning, it's super super scary. Fortunately, most of the country is fine, only less than ten people were killed and few are injured.

    - free elections,
    - a good economy, and
    - good relations with Western countries.

    I was in the 6.9 quake in California, in 1989. My Dad took me to the World Series game between the Oakland A's and SF Giants, at Candlestick Park in San Francisco. We were on the bottom level, dodging pieces of the levels above as debris fell. Once outside the park, we saw cars literally _turning in their parking spaces_ in the smaller aftershocks. The Embarcadero bridge that we'd usually take home was destroyed, as was a third of the three parallel Caldecott tunnels we use to get home, normally. It took a full day to reach home, 40 miles from the game.
    My prayers to you, Taiwan, and those who have family affected by this massive earthquake. The devastation they bring is mind blowing.

      I remember seeing that on tv.
      Last time I was in an earthquake I was typing a comment on RUclips. I stopped, got up and caught my tv, came back and finished my comment. It was a small one, 4.3ish and only lasted a few seconds. Still freaky when the floor starts rolling under you.

      I was in the East Bay during it. That must have been terrifying for you! I’m so glad you survived. I was 11 and felt the shaking in Pleasanton. I watched all the footage of the bridge and was reminded each and every time I crossed it in my car as an adult. Certainly scarring.

      I was on BART btwn the coliseum (or Fruitvale) & Lake Merritt. The train was rocking side to side just like the cars in the video. I thought while holding on geez this is a terrible driver. I thought she was having trouble switching tracks... she then got on the PA and said there was an earthquake. Took a while to get home. That was the start of ride share... and what we now know as ZipCar and now Uber, Lyft etc.

    On Wednesday, Taiwan experienced its most severe earthquake in at least 25 years, claiming the lives of seven individuals and leaving over 700 injured. Among the affected, 77 individuals found themselves trapped within tunnels and collapsed structures. Rescue efforts unfolded amidst the perilous scenes of tilted buildings in the mountainous and scarcely inhabited eastern county of Hualien. The quake, measuring 7.2 on the Richter scale, struck just offshore around 8 a.m., prompting dramatic rescues where ladders were employed to aid individuals in descending to safety. Television broadcasts captured the harrowing aftermath, illustrating the magnitude of the disaster.

    All flights to and from Japan’s Naha Airport on Okinawa island have resumed after a tsunami warning issued for the area was downgraded, the airport's spokesperson Hideaki Tsurudo told CNN on Wednesday.
    Okinawa was impacted by small tsunami waves under 30 centimeters (11 inches) following the earthquake in Taiwan, resulting in flights to be suspended. But no waves reached the airport and it was thereby reopened, according to Tsurudo.
    No casualties or damage have been reported in Japan following the 7.4 magnitude earthquake in Taiwan, according to Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi.
    The quake triggered tsunami warnings in Japan, but early reports show the first tsunami waves to be small, under 30 centimeters (11 inches), on the southern Japanese island of Okinawa.
    But Hayashi, speaking at a press conference, said the second and third waves generated by the quake are expected to be bigger.
    The tsunami warnings for Japan have been downgraded to an advisory, he said.
    Still, Hayashi advised people in affected areas to remain on higher ground.
    The first waves were forecast to hit from 8:33 a.m. local time until 10:33 a.m. on Wednesday (8:33 p.m. to 10:33 p.m. ET on Tuesday).
    People in the coastal areas across the provinces of Batanes Group of Islands, Cagayan, Ilocos Norte and Isabela have been “strongly advised to immediately evacuate to higher grounds or move further inland,” according to the advisory.
    Owners of boats in harbors, estuaries, or shallow coastal water have also been asked to secure their boats and move away from the waterfront. Boats already out at sea should stay offshore in deep waters until further advised, the advisory read.
    The 7.4 magnitude earthquake that hit Taiwan on Wednesday has severely damaged a major highway along its eastern coast, according to local television stations.
    Footage aired on CNN affiliate TVBS showed large boulders had fallen on the Suhua Highway, with several tunnels broken - including one that was split in half.
    CNN affiliate SET News shows the front of a car smashed by fallen rocks.
    At least nine rockfalls and landslides have been reported on the Suhua Highway, and the entire line has been closed, Taiwan’s Central News Agency reported, citing authorities.
    Another highway connecting the west coast with the east of Taiwan was also damaged by rockfall, with at least 12 cars hit and nine people injured, TVBS reported.
    Residents on the streets of Hualien in Taiwan have been inspecting damage following a 7.4 magnitude earthquake, footage from CNN affiliate TVBS shows.
    The footage shows the awning of a building that had collapsed on top of motorbikes in the street, and a large nine-storey building partially collapsed and leaning to the right.
    All flights to Japan's Naha Airport on Okinawa island have been diverted following a tsunami report, the airport's spokesperson told CNN on Wednesday.
    All staff and personnel have evacuated to the third floor in anticipation of the tsunami's impact, Hideaki Tsurudo said, adding that no waves have reached the airport in the timeframe of the warning.
    All flights from Japan's Okinawa and Kagoshima regions have been suspended following tsunami warnings in the area, according to Japan Airlines.
    Flights that were headed to the areas with tsunami warnings have been turned back, it added.
