Yes. It is a good thing. Every quake releases pressure from the faults. As a native, quakes do not scare me. Usually, i do not even notice them. Also Dr Jones, we are grateful for you
I'm an Italian seismologist, working at the Italian National Institute of Geophysics and Vulcanology. What you say is a sort of urban legend. The energy of earthquakes grows exponentially: one single Mw 4.7 earthquake like the one in Malibu is about 30 times smaller, in terms of energy released, than a Mw 5.7 earthquake, and is about 1000 times smaller than a Mw 6.7 shock, like the 1994 Northridge earthquake. Therefore the Malibu earthquake released an infinitesimal part of the energy needed to generate a 6.7 or stronger earthquake
The really big ones aren't that often and aren't all in the same area. We don't feel the majority because they are so small. I believe 'active' in this sense means potential, not that they are all the time slipping and sliding 😂
Honestly we sleep pretty good and don't get out of bed until it's a 5+m. Depending on where you live & how active things are that year, it could be less than 2 or up to maybe up to ~5 you feel every year.
How do people sleep in the tornado-prone Midwest? In the hurricane paths of the Gulf, the Eastern Seaboard, the Florida peninsula? The same way we do in SoCal- with full awareness of the risks, and preparations.
A lot of these old buildings in LA and Hollywood have these decorative masonry faces or facades added onto the sides that would flake off and fall and some old theaters and buildings actually have stone gargoyles on top waiting to fall off on people.
I use freeze in place, my brain short circuits and can't decide to stay or go 🤣🤣 The quake alert on my phone didn't go off until I was feeling the shaking this time.
I hope she’s always with us, she’s very knowledgeable along with Dr. Kate Hutton.
So grateful for Dr. Lucy Jones!! Great information and so glad to hear what she's helping to work on, too

That is wrong, so very wrong. Every minor quake *increases* strain on the San Andreas. The only thing that’ll relieve pressure is The Big One.
Lmao did this dude even listen to anything she said? 😂😂😂

“Everywhere in south California is within a few miles of an active fault” 😳 how ppl in socal sleep at night I’ll never know

@@judysocal8682 haha it’s the potential that would keep me up but I am glad to hear you all are staying safe

Either do I… I live here and I wish I didn’t ‼️
The fact it has been quiet the past 25 years means the tension has not been released and will eventually snap like a rubberband.
That theory has been debunked.
Thank you Bill Nye.
@@teddyde6128 Wrong.
I am sure your entire collective knowledge could fit into a thimble.
It sounds plausible, but do you have a source? Just curious; I want to read more about it
Thanks Dr Lucy Jones!
There are a lot of undiscovered faults.
My ex is one of them
The Northridge Quake led to the discovery of a fault. That's usually how they're discovered
Simple solution..
Ban quakes and fires.. Period!

You guys need to interview Dutchsinse.
I liked it when the news team and Dr Lucy made a slight plea for better construction codes that were introduced but fell through.😢
I’d like to ask Dr Jones will we get ‘the BIG ONE’ and how soon?

Hollywood is part of LA

4.7 is pretty big actually.
Not really, it could be centered under your house at 1 mile depth and your house would still be standing unless its an unreinforced masonry structure.
Can't wait for the Big One in Cali.😅
You mustn’t be from California nobody calls it Cali.
me 2.i left the shithole 2 years ago.born and raised and never going back.
@@drakejdfwho fuckkkkkkkinhgggg cares 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Getter hope you didn't move to a new disaster zone could still get you...
😮
Birth pains…
Actually, due to summer and heat.
And over a wildfire. 😂 earthquake keeps going in California along wildfire
Nonsense! 🙄
You need an expert to tell us we’re having more ?!! 😂
Coz somehow, somewhere in the mind of those who need to be told what they can't feel themselves these "experts" are immune to the effects😂
🍿
They won't do it. Corporate greed
Move out of Los Angeles it's going to sink
Yawn
Its just a matter of time before all hell breaks lose. But good news, theirs gold being produced for future miners.
we are expecting a really big mega earthquake any minute now this week or next week. DARPA just launched it's earthquake weapons.
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 wherever 🥴
Exactly.
The earthquakes are making the freaking frogs gay
