As someone who lives in a place that gets semi-regular earthquakes I feel like I need to shed some light on what you should actually do during one. Firstly, DO NOT RUN. It is one of the main reasons people get hurt. You're better off carefully walking to where you need to be. Secondly, if you are inside, stay away from windows and "duck, cover, hold". Duck to the ground, find cover under a sturdy table, desk etc. and hold onto the cover. Doorways can also work, but make sure you have a foot out to stop the door from crashing into you (not as safe as a table, but a good alternative). Ultimately the best place to be is out in the open away from buildings. If you live by the coast and the earthquake is a large one, get to high ground or further inland immediately. I'm not talking up buildings, I'm talking up hills. Tsunamis are no joke.
Finally, sensible and correct advice on how to react to earthquakes. Thank you! I would add that running out of a tall building in a quake is also a really bad idea: falling glass, falling debris, etc...
Yea I’m high elevation and good foundation so my house is pretty earthquake resistant
Fun fact: Earthquakes are felt more strongly the higher you go in a building, not most strongly at ground level.
Yeah exactly! I cringed when the narrator said that lol
Thanks, I was thinking that too. I guess common sense isn't all that common!
Wow, that really was fun 🙄
You don’t say
Yep. That’s how I felt the big earthquake in San Francisco when I was in a 10 story building in Anaheim, lol. Barely. The mini blinds were swinging mildly.
Okay, that underwater one was amazing. Being in the water stabilized them while the ground just shook under them. That's phenomenal footage of how violent the shaking is. Sharp and hard back and forth. Such incredible footage.
Agre
I can't believe how calm the person was filming that rooftop Mexico pool
and the options were?
@@ianmontgomery7534 my option would have been "kissing my ass goodbye"
@@ianmontgomery7534ive seen videos of people completely panicking and screaming. Its definitely not the best option, but it is an option haha.
The baby 😂
"crashing through the fence like the Kool Aid man" got me good 😂
That was pretty funny! 😂
But, I must have missed something. Where did he come from?
@@SilverAuntie slow it down.. he breaks through the dark fence around 2 o clock on the clock-face perspective. He seemed to be bouncing around on the other side of the fence before that 👍😎✊
Oh no, Oh Fuck NO!!
I think that joke works only in USA.
4:57am June 28, 1992. My pool had 10 foot high waves caused by the 7.8 Landers Earthquake. I will never forget the water crashing into our glass door. Half the water in the pool was lost to the street. I found the missing cap to the pool deck strainer high atop our Yucca Trees.
Fun fact: phones can also record video in landscape mode. If you’re recording a scene that is wider than it is tall, landscape mode is preferable.
nobody holds phones that way to use them
@@TheRealAb216but everyone watches tablets, laptops, computers and TVs in landscape mode
Fun fact:those in the penthouse are not the too bright upstairs literally. 🙄
...unless you usually share things on Instagram and/or TikTik...
The earthquake in Turkey was truly terrible. I've been there and experienced that. Ten cities were damaged, many people died. I felt like it was happening again while watching the video.
Why you always lyin'?
nothing ever happens @@xanderscott807
@xanderscott807 Why you always assume people are lyin'?
I was stationed there as air defense in the 90's, not surprised the buildings collapsed, they were so degrepide already, no building code exists in Turkey or Syria, both amazing countries and the nicest people, if you take the time to accumulate yourself.
It was horrible. I'm so sorry for you.
These videos on this channel are exactly what i type to search when im bored now they are all in one spot. Love it.
I would be terrified to be that high up in a building during an earthquake!
Edit: People, stop saying the narrator is wrong about Mexico being in North America! Get a map and really look at it...
Sorry, but Mexico is in North America. Anything south of Mexico is in Central America.
@@susanwahl6322 So, if everything "south of Mexico" is in central America, then logically Mexico is NOT in Central America (since Mexico is obviously not south of itself....) which means it is in North American. Hmmmm...
North America includes Mexico, US and Canada.
@@ChristLink-Channelwhat on Earth are you smoking
@@susanwahl6322Except South America😅
Can anyone explain to me why, in all of these videos (except the high rise one), the sudden panic impulse of everyone is to get out of a swimming pool during an earthquake? If it were me, I would be trying my hardest to keep away from the concrete edge of any pool, I wouldn't want my head bashed in.
I'm thinking it's because instead of just feeling it through your feet, your entire body is getting tossed around and much more dangerously. It would be much harder to hold yourself in place against the mass of the water and would be more likely to get pushed against the wall.
Probably the danger of drowning, but what do I know.
Extremely informative, I really appreciate the "science behind" some of the segments, such as rivers reversing course, and the effects of an earthquake on divers while underwater. Very unique and well presented, thanks!
The falls are not an earthquake. It's the tide. The rivers that run into the Bay of Fundy reverse course at high tide. Those particular falls are the Reversing Falls in Saint John, NB. We don't have earthquakes, but we've got the highest tides in the world (about 50 feet).
3:40pm April 4th, 2010 (Easter Sunday) I was in my pool with friends drinking I started to feel strange, think I know I’ve been drinking, but I haven’t drank that much. My dad then yelled out EARTHQUAKE!!! Because this Earthquake was further away than Landers, our pool didn’t react so violently. Which was good because I was in it.
I went white water rafting 5 weeks to the day before the 2015 Nepal earthquake right at what turned out to be the epicenter of the quake. I can only imagine how terrifying it would have been to be rafting when it happened. I am pretty sure there would have been many rafts on the river on a Saturday at noon. It was busy when I did it
That's actually really cool. The way the water changed directions. Phenomenal
During the 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake in Northern California a friend of mine was in the balcony of the 50 mtr pool at the University of San Francisco. The pool was aligned with the direction the quake was coming from and soon after it started six foot high waves were rolling the length of the pool and smashing against the wall at the north end. Nobody was in the pool but I wish I had been.
I was just getting out of my swimming lesson in Menlo Park (midway between the quakes epicenter and SF) and the big pool turned into a mini ocean, barely made it up the ladder! The shallow kiddy pool nearby violently emptied itself- crazy to see the difference in how the different pools reacted side by side
I lived in Fremont and was 11. I was home alone and will never forget the floor rolling under my feet! My father had a house in the Santa Cruz mountains (Bonny Doon) and his pool lost 1/4th of the water!
If there is one thing to be learned from watching these videos is just how clueless people are when it comes to how to react during disasters.
nice video. some actually usable background information, sober editing, not too much filler footage, and watchable source footage that actually shows the actual events. not frustrating. :-)
I recall the Easter Earthquake in 2010, from my Aunt's house in So Cal. Her neighbor's pool sloshed around. My buddy in Las Vegas said it was a wild ride from inside his high rise condo room.
For five years after the San Jose and loma prreada earthquakes we were busy as hell fixing or replacing in ground pools and spas. One pool we demoed was sticking straight out of the ground.
1:00 crazy guy staying in the pool filming.
If the wall break he go down with the water on the street.
Sorry if bad English, I'm French.
You did fine, my friend. I only wish I could say so in French but, since I chose to learn Spanish in school (and I have forgotten most of in the 45 years since graduation), I am woefully ignorant.
I can, at least, say Joyeux Noël!!!🎄🎁🎅🤶👼🎇🎆🙏🕊️
Thank you for the update, Underworld..!! Earthquakes are scary.. 🥶
I have a friend who survived the Northridge earthquake, the most locally violent earthquake in history. He watched his neighbor's garage smash his house and his motorcycle smash through the wall and land in the pool.
My cousin and his wife were there too. They were uninjured, but everything made out of glass was broken. We weren't able to reach them by phone, but I had a feeling everything was okay.
I was there 4:30am January 17, 1994 (MLK Day). The frame of my water bed broke, and the mattress oozed out of the frame onto the floor. Fortunately the mattress did not spring a leak.
@@subman721You were extremely lucky! Waterbeds hold A LOT of water. That would have really been a disaster!!!😮
@@subman721we were living in Simi Valley when both the Sylmar and Northridge quakes hit, we really had no real damage during the Sylmar but it did frighten us to the core! It was our first one, also the first time being in an area surrounded by fires, during the Northridge quake, we had a candelabra on our piano which tipped over, broke some of the jewel cups and put a dent in the top of
the piano. And thats the extent of our damage, however a house on the street behind us and three over lost their house, it was rebuilt from the ground up. Now I live in Texas, we’ve had a few tiny quakes, but most of us in N Texas worry more about tornadoes!
I was in LA and watched my '69 VW Bug ride the asphalt as the pavement rolled like waves in the ocean. It was crazy!
That underwater quake footage is awesome - just wow!
Watched my pool water 💧 do this during The Northridge quake. Crazy times.
How about a Petroleum Refinery explosion?
I was vacuuming a large swimming pool at a YMCA that was 9 miles away from the Phillips 66 refinery near Deer Park, Texas. The refinery blew up and water in the pool jumped two feet up as a solid mass, then crashed down. My father worked at the Shell Oil refinery next to Phillips 66. Huge mushroom cloud.
On #3: I just capture my footage rather than helping people get out of the water! That's where we are with the smartphone generation
Pools and earthquakes DO go together. High rise buildings are often designed to use one or more pools high in the structure, to take energy out of, and so reduce, the building vibrations.
Not sure where the earthquake occurred, but #5 was a video of a tsunami coming up Wailuku river in Hilo, Hawaii. That’s the open ocean, and when a small wave came in it went upstream. That river is still flowing today as it always has.
Not me, watching the views go up and up
Seven likes and no replies? Lemme fix that.
Wow, that building that had the water escaping many stories to the ground below probably hurt some folk. A block of water the size of your stove weighs 2000 lbs...the same as an old VW Beetle car.
Except water doesn't come in "blocks". But a large enough glob of water that somehow managed not to separate into droplets on the way down would definitely knock a person down.
Like being under a huge waterfall. That's gotta hurt!
Each litrre of pure water weighs a kilogram, so a slightly more for pool water.
nope at thig height water turn into vapor or rain
it is not ice
Oh man this pool footage is unreal!!
The first one, I would have been scared sh!tless. 🥺
Number 5 was in Hawaii, the river is connected to the ocean a 1/4 mile below the white bridge, it was a tsunami wave heading upstream
Do you happen to know if the tsunami was caused by an underwater ocean earthquake?
@@silverchords1277 I would have to look it up, but im pretty sure it was the japan earthquake that caused it
River reversing is creepy!
I remember the Calexico 'Easter' quake. Having grown up in Southern California I knew the feeling. However, it was not something I ever expected to feel in Arizona. Might not have been so notable had I been on the ground floor but was living in a 2nd floor apartment outside of Phoenix.
....Up in a high-rise, which are (supposed to be) designed to absorb ground movement, the swaying would be more intense though the actual shaking will be dampened some. At the ground level youll get the shaking and more abrupt movement. All things considered, rather be outside in a field......honestly, earthquakes are pretty neat out in the open!
*Your video is very good and interesting, wish you all a very happy and good Christmas*
The humor in your videos is like a fine wine; it just keeps getting better with time!
Water should not be underestimated. It is fascinating and at the same time frightening what such a liquid can do. Water can really be a danger and should not be underestimated. Especially because of the flood disaster 2021 in Nordreihn Westfahlen in Germany. Thanks for this entertaining video. 👍👍👍
If you have ever been white water rafting and fallen out, you understand this all too well. I can speak from personal experience.
@@whiteshadow1771 The current pull is real, absolutely. But people underestimate the kinetic energy of water all the time. Like, think of a gallon water jug, and having to catch one of those.....now imagine having to catch however many gallons are coming at you..... I still hear people say it would be fun to be under a fire plane when it releases its water, and you just get hit with all that rain.....nah bruh, you get hit with a 3000gal wall of water. Not. Fun. It can only be made less not fun if they only open the doors slightly and let it drizzle out. Otherwise, you're getting tabled by that rain, mate.
Water is deadly , small amounts bring life , lots of it destroys life and cus it's so dense , just small amounts are unbelievably heavy ! So when a large wave hits you at speed, watch out ! 😱🤔🙄💀
0:01 That is not a Olympic size swimming pool. Its just a swimming pool.
Cool videos, but the triple screen sucks! Full screen picture would be much more appreciated
excellent video. way better narrated than most all others. music was little odd but very bearable and NOT over powering or to loud. we could understand your voice and the cadence of your narration and scene to scene was not hysterical or rushed like many others thanks. i have added you to my favorites
I wish people would film in panoramic - like TVs ;)
On October 16th, 1999 my Submarine USS Asheville (SSN-758) was tied up at Submarine Base Point Loma, San Diego, when the 7.2 Hector Mine Earthquake hit. I had just crossed the brow to the boat, from the pier so I didn’t feel the quake. However I noticed the boat moving back and forth, seeing the lines getting really taught really fast thinking they were going to part. Fortunately they didn’t.
Actually swimming pool on the roof is great idea in the case of the earthquake - it stabilizes the building .
Wonderful, frightening, but wonderful
The third one made me have a little chuckle. 😂😂😂
EPIC CATCHES!! scarrrryyyy but epic too😱😱
The waterfall reversing isn't an earthquake. Those are the Reversing Falls in Saint John, New Brunswick, and that happens twice a day. The tide off the Bay of Fundy is the highest in the world, and it cause the falls to run backward at high tide. The same thing happens in rivers, with tidal bores causing the water to reverse course. We don't even have earthquakes.
Like the Kool-Aid man LOL
Insane all of them! But the first video they were so chill and just sat in there savageeee haha I’d be peeing my pants and crying 😂
"Assuming the ground doesn't open up beneath you..." Thanks, I now have a new fear.
Tomorrow, February 9, will be the 53rd anniversary of the 1971 Sylmar (California) earthquake, which hit at 6:00 a.m.. We were living in Beverly Hills at the time, and although it was a magnitude 6.5, we were too far away (about 21 miles) to feel the worst of it. The water in our swimming pool violently rocked back and forth, but fortunately most of it stayed in the pool. It was the first major earthquake I ever experienced, and I’m glad that it didn’t occur on a warm summer day when we would have been using the pool.
In México City they didn’t check in, they live there, there are apartments with sharing pools
Thank you, Underworld.
Love this 🙂 a camera caught my 4k gal gummy pool dancing in the 2019 Ridgecrest quake 👍😎✊
I think your channel is exceptional with the narration. Usually it's just annoying, irrelevant stuff. Her it's interesting to listen to.
I can't believe my eyes! This is the most entertaining video I've ever seen!
I was in San Diego during the 2010 earthquake. I remember that some of the glass ornaments I had hung on the wall fell down and broke.
That first one is oddly satisfying.
0:57 That dude wasn't getting out of that pool for anything. If it was worse he could have been tossed out.
I never experienced earthquakes before living in Costa Rica for a while! IT WAS VERY INTENSE! 😬 Everything flying, literally! Once I was on the 7th floor when it happened! I just got used to it!
My cousin was sitting at the edge of a pool when the Loma prieta earthquake hit, all of the water rose up from one end of the pool in a giant wave that travelled to the other side before splashing out at the other end
Wow. A lot of your relatives seem to have witnessed these EXACT disasters mentioned on this channel!
I think that the pool you just added in was 8 Waves Waterpark in Bulacan. I went there just a few times ago during my teenage vacation.
New phobia unlocked
The upper levels of a high rise always sway more, like willows, they bend instead of breaking. The ground floor shaking will be less intense..
New fear unlocked- being underwater in the ocean when a earthquake happens...
"If the earthquake was that powerful at the top of a high rise, imagine how it must have felt to those on the first floor." You don't know much about earthquakes do you?
I've witnessed an Earthquake happen while in the air! Flying over a large Lake! Calm waters one minute, White Caps and Surf washing up on the shore the next second! Was pretty crazy!
Years ago, we went cave spelunking and we moved our day to a Friday in lieu of the Saturday that we had planned. The next day, we were sitting in a restaurant nearby and a 5. Something earthquake occurred. It knocked things off of the walls, wasn’t a huge earthquake but it was creepy that we would have felt that from underground had we gone on the original day we booked.
meanwhile at the same time i'm just like "Ah look, Wave Pool"
And some days later when upload the video Japan earthquake occurs.. Just coincidence, but numbers of views go to sky, thats not coincidence, your videos are amazing! :)
Just so you know in 1899 and 1900 the New Madrid fault shook and the mississippi flowed bachward and there were dust gysers in farm fields ..
Dust geysers? What're they?
In some fields there were build up from the quake and the soil would shoot up like a volcano . It's all in history if you care to research it . Scared the hell out of a lot of people . I was in a big quake in California in 70 , scared me good enough I left about 2 month's later and never went back .@@SilverAuntie
cool thats nice
lol this is one of those videos that sounds uninteresting in theory, and would never make it to TV. But is actually really good
Thanks. I'm in CDMX atm 😢.
That first video looks like what a pool car would be like on Snowpiercer.
"Cool waves dude!"
True bro!
Uh.
Dont keep scrolling.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Crazy when one sees the impact of an earthquake on pool water....reminds you of the scale of the impact it has on bigger bodies, like the ocean. The power of mother nature.
Cool video.
The Northridge quake caused water to slosh out of our pool in Simi Valley all day. Not as bad as these though.
0:40 fun fact, no, the rest of the world has not "always" called it that way, well not if you count the 600 million people in Latam that always called it "Mexico DF", freaken anglos
Not sure if it was an Earthquake, but the Yellowstone currently flows east the the Missouri river, the Mississippi river and south into the Golf of Mexico.
But in the past it turned north and flowed into Hudson Bay.
The Northridge earthquake caused our pool to create a tidal wave that flooded the whole house…and I Remember that Mexicali earthquake it was felt all the way up the California coast
9:45 Wow! I wonder where the other 13 million odd Manila residents went? Were they on holiday at the time, skiing resort maybe, getting away from the hot weather?
wowww some new to see bout earthquake..❤
I was visting Mexico City when this earthquake happened. So scary!!!
Not sure why I was exposed to this content but loved every second of it 😊
10:27 the people having fun
Earthquake: I’m about to ends these guys whole career
I'm half filipino and half mexican too. Great video
The April 4 2010 Mexicali earthquake happened a day before I was born 😮
Imagine the seafloor cracks open beneath you while you're there diving 😳Drowning is bad enough...
WTF is the deal with people recording videos with 1/3 of the screen blurred out on both sides and only a tiny little 1/3 of the screen watcheable where it makes it very hard to see. Recording videos like that is annoying and stupid because why would you want to eliminate 2/3 of a screen? Would you want to go to a movie theatre and have 2/ of the screen just be blurry?
Nice.
Not me about to mention The 1812 quake then you mention it lol
"Everyone enjoys a good swim" Except for those that are afraid of water of course.
6:32 is the tsunami caused by the 2010 Maule Earthquake flowing up the Wailuku River in Hilo, Hawai'i btw
Its amazing these high rise building cand withstand swaying!
The new Madrid Earthquake made the Mississippi River flow backwards and caused belles to ring in Boston mass and Charleston South Carolina in the 18 teens I can't remember the exact year dec 1811 to jan 1812
