Very realistic with it getting stronger and stronger and the magnitude going up the longer the quake lasts. I have heard in the past that the intensity of the shaking using does not increase much beyond 7.5 which is shown here and maxing out as it gets closer to magnitude 8. Megathrust quakes are by far the worst quakes in my eyes, along with most other thrust faults including Northridge (which was a blind thrust fault) and tend to damage small to mid size structures badly. You put your heart and soul into this work, and I have the utmost respect for you for this, and I can promise your subscribers will continue to climb until you are in the millions, and for excellent reason too. I still think that when this channel gets big enough, I am hoping you get into a well-paid and rewarding career working for the City of LA, and advising officials with these hypothetical models, that could have a part in the future of you changing things for the better in long term and making ALL buildings safer in CA. This talent can be put to incredible use for the better to change things from top to bottom, along with continuing to WAKE PEOPLE UP to these dangers and lead them to being more prepared! Quakes like this Cascadia quake with long period shaking are the biggest tests for the very tall buildings. A lot of the newer large towers in Seattle will likely hold up to the shaking including Colombia Seafirst Center which they built properly in mind to handle this, and especially the Space Needle which was massively retrofitted at the time of construction, and then recently it was retrofitted even more to withstand up to a 9.2 magnitude quake. I think it was only the last 35-40 years that they understood the danger of this fault and how large of a quake this could create, and I don't think they put as much of an emphasis on the older towers in Seattle and Portland as they have in areas like Los Angeles and San Francisco. A quake like this is much larger than what the San Andreas could give off, though at up to a possible 8.3 on the strike-slip fault it would still be a hell of a ride also with long period rolling motion mostly side to side like what the Landers, and the later Hector Mine quake created. I would trust most buildings in Downtown LA including the US Bank tower which is massively reinforced in every direction, and the newer Wilshire Grand with the 4' thick core walls built similar to what they did for the WTC (same construction company as well) along with all the other design features to minimize the shocks. Other buildings like the black twin 52 floor towers (used to be known as Arco Towers) I would be nervous to be in because of the older method where they used welds that were brittle (and they broke during the Sylmar quake during construction), though a famous structural engineering firm took up residence in one of the buildings so its likely that they wont come down. The Aeon building as well was built using this method, so only time will tell when the inevitable happens. The other newer buildings should hold up fine as well in my eyes, and many of the older buildings built earlier in the century would probably be ok because many of them were overbuilt at the time. Going back to the Arco towers, I think its horrific they fixed the broken welds using the same method and continued building the up the same way. On a side note, I think that most homes and apartment buildings would hold up to the long period shaking of the San Andreas quake better than the shaking from the Northridge quake, or especially the Puente Hills fault if worst case happens with it maxing at 7.5 and being a thrust fault running directly under DTLA and then extending to West LA and Beverly Hills, where it ends, and that quake would cause likely a lot more destruction in the LA Area than the San Andreas fault rupturing at the south end and spreading up the fault all the way likely to Fort Tejon or further. One thing that really angered me is the spectacle surrounding the millennium tower in which they did not dig all the way down to bedrock, and THEN switched from steel to much heavier concrete. I don't trust this one bit with it continuing to lean and I believe its one big quake from coming down and possibly crashing into the newer larger buildings surrounding them including Salesforce tower, which was definitely built properly. I believe that there is a chance of a quake happening and the tower coming down during all the bickering between the city and the developers and there will be hell to pay if that happens. I truly believe there were some corrupt people in City Congress that looked the other way after being bribed. I would LOVE to see you do a model of a theoretical quake like the one during the late 80's during the world series, using the Millennium tower as it currently stands, and then an example of how it would have (more likely not) handled a 1906 scenario on the San Andreas fault with Mercalli intensity rated around 11 in areas with unstable ground, which the millennium tower was built on. And yet the structure still won awards for design and how resilient it is and would be in quakes, but with a shitty foundation, I think that is all out the window. The best thing they can do is get the rest of the tenants to move and take the building down safely while they still have a chance. If that building were to collapse in a daytime quake, the death toll could be easily in the 10k range in that small area alone! Even though the southern portion is loaded with more stress and most likely able to create a larger quake than what could happen in SF, I think Southern Cali would fair better. They have potential death toll estimates up to 1800 people even at magnitude 8 to 8.3 max, and I know that wouldn't be the case in SF which is likely able to put out a 7.8 to 7.9. It would be AWESOME to see a San Andreas worst case scenario with the US Bank, and the Wilshire Grand, and with City Hall after they redid the foundation and installed base isolation. IF you are interested in doing a video on that it would be great. I got a hold of the construction diagram of US Bank tower, and I was blown away with the reinforcements at every angle.. They REALLY did not fuck around at all with that place, and I am certain it was overbuilt if anything and would hold up even in a larger quake than 8.3. If I was in a large building like that in a massive quake I would feel safe there, even at the top of the building, and this also would be the case for the Wilshire Grand. If money was not the prime factor in everything, then base isolation should be used with ALL big buildings along with Hospitals and Schools. And with more use the cost will drop and eventually all apartments and homes could go this route? Sorry for the long posts - I type VERY fast and this took less than 2 mins, so before people try to bash me for this, try keeping this tidbit in mind.. I do this because I love your videos, and I am deeply into this same sort of thing you are. I am a systems engineer for a VERY large company everyone knows of and also run my own business, and I was originally getting into structural engineering but decided not to due to the 10 years of school to do this, and I was able to learn everything on my own in the IT world starting in the 9-10th grade and not going to college. But still I have the same engineering mindset as the mindset tends to apply across the board, and this stuff fascinates the hell out of me and is also horrifying at the same time. I live in La Crescenta, and found my neighborhood is on VERY solid ground and in the foothills most of the top dirt washed down in storms over the past 100+ years, leaving a situation where there is VERY solid rock not far down, which is the best place to be in a quake with proper foundation, and the shaking is MUCH less intense on bedrock. On sand in the Marina area where I lived in the past and my family has property, the shaking is much more intense even with a proper foundation dug deep, and it also shakes longer as well.
Portland is absolutely doomed. Most buildings downtown will go down for sure in an earthquake like this... I suspect bridges won't fare well either. I hope I'm wrong.
Yes, it takes a good strong 8.0 earthquake a full 8 minutes to shake up a gas station and the beams holding up the roof of that canopy area still didnt collapse. 😆
@@EarthquakeSimodd question but mind making an earthquake simulation for Phoenix Arizona, the city where I live? Maybe a large dust storm kicked up by the shaking?
Yeah, pretty sure that the underground storage tanks at 8 (& definitely 9) would violently rupture; forcing gasoline to geyser out. I suspect that Corvette is still running. There's your ignition source. Epic explosion in about 3 seconds.
I watched your videos before and after the Moroccan Earthquake, and listening to the sounds, give flashbacks, and for the steps at the end, no one was prepared everybody got out of the houses, how could they hide under a table…
I'm amazed the crane and the canopy over the pump area held up so well. Also that the underground gas tanks didn't explode and catch fire. But well done.
@@EarthquakeSim Okay, I got one for you: ON May 22, 1960, the (so far) only 9.5 earthquake hit Chile, with a ginormous tsunami. Can you do a sim of what that would look like today?
Soy chileno y recuerdo el terremoto del año 2010 en chile a menudo cuando veo videos de este tipo, siempre se me vienen los recuerdos. Este es un video bastante real en su forma de mostrar el sacudimiento del suelo y su destrucción, como también desde el momento en que inició hasta que finalizó. Lo que no a simulado con certeza es el movimiento superficial del suelo, yo recuerdo que la intensidad en la localidad en donde yo vivía en ese momento fue muy fuerte... El movimiento del suelo era impresionante y el ruido que tampoco lo simula con exactitud, porque estamos hablando de un terremoto grado 9.0. El terremoto del 2010 en chile se caracterizó por ese ruido ensordecedor qué no dejaba de tumbar los oídos, como si el cielo se fuera partir por los relámpagos qué no paraban de formarse y la tierra de fuera abrir en grandes grietas debido al ruido tan espantoso qué todos los chilenos qué estuvimos en ese momento lo recordamos. Actualmente se que la aceleración sísmica del sector en el que yo vivía fue de 0.54g osea estuvo situada en VIII mercalli, creame que las ondas superficiales del suelo hicieron qué el suelo se sacudiera similar a como lo muestra usted entre los minutos 02:30 y 03:30. Mi mamá me cuenta que ella cuando iba subiendo al segundo piso de la casa donde estaba durmiendo yo, paso por el patio y cuenta como el suelo fluctuaba igual como cuando alguien sacude la sabana de su cama. Si logrará similar eso yo le doy un 10, porque el nivel de destrucción más que en la aceleración esta en las ondas superficiales y no en la intensidad., los efectos de un sismo a mi parecer aveces tienen más y aveces menos ondas superficiales, y creame que la intensidad de cada uno sin importar si es grado 6.0 o 5.0, varía mucho aunque se situe en V o VI.
1.05 the block flipping is cool. Makes you wonder if anything like this happens in real life. Its amazingly shocking how much damage can be done in so short a duration. Four minutes would be a long time if you were really there.
If you need some ideas on what to do next, here is a list: - amusement park - aquarium - city park - subway station and tunnels - elevated metro - aerial tramway/gondola - seawall with city - car dealership - water treatment plant - stadium - indoor swimming pool - outdoor festival - santa's house 🤣
Police officer walks up to the Cadillac. "Are you having sex in there?" "No officer we are not" the man replies. "Then why is the Cadillac rocking back and forth?" "There is an earthquake going on." "OK then," the police officer replies, "how to you know that?" The woman states, "Because officer if we where having sex I would feel the earth move."
@@EarthquakeSim I wonder if you’ve been asked this already but what would happen if a 10.0, earthquake happened across the west coast of North America? I would think that aside from the complete and utter devastation of all major cities from the quake itself, there would inevitably be a tsunami from such a powerful earthquake and probably a big one too. I would think that one possible event would be that if it managed to agitate activity out of some of the cascade volcanoes that are particularly active like Mount Saint Helens or otherwise potentially dangerous like Mount Hood, or Mount Rainier. At the very least there could be the concern of avalanches and significant rock falls from those volcanoes from the earthquake. To add insult to injury it is entirely possible that some areas might suffer from wildfires caused by ruptured gas lines in some areas away from the coast that weren’t affected by the tsunami. Do you think that might be a potential outcome to such a hypothetical event?
There is a small town in Washington that has a "Lahar Surfing Club"...members keep a surf-board on the roof of their homes. Their plan is to surf all the way to Puget Sound. Lahar maps and emergency escape routes are just daily reality when you live above a huge subduction zone!
I had learned that Cascadia would be an up/down quake, not sideways. I was taught that a 9.0 Cascadia would be very different from what a 9.0 San Andreas would be like. Imagine the ground heaving up and down perhaps lifting and dropping 3ft or more rapidly. No human has ever recorded a 9.0 subduction zone quake in history. I think only the trees in this video would have remained standing, and possibly the vehicle would have been much more damaged if they'd been tossed up and down over and over again
I was almost over the epicenter of the Northridge earthquake. This is not a bad simulation, especially up to magnitude 6 or so. Then it departs from reality very quickly. Some observations from an eye witness if you will allow me? After 6 you start to get longer periods of horizontal ground movement. The ground here is apparently lurching a yard or two back and forth. After 6.5 especially? That distance covered by the sway or lurch increases, but that increase varies. But the 1971 quake had a longer sway than higher magnitudes displayed here. But the big discrepancy is that all your movement is in a two dimensional plane. In the Northridge quake? I was thrown at and bumped my head on a 12 foot ceiling. Well I say thrown, but it was more like the ground left me, and then came back up to smack me. Even smaller quakes, if you’re out in the wild? You can see the ground moving in a wave coming right at you. It can pick you up and throw you off your feet. If you want realism, you’re going to have to add another axis of movement.
@@EarthquakeSim I’m so very glad! Because you have uncannily captured the lateral motion brilliantly. Do you know about that Mexico quake, that bad one last century? The waves matched the frequency of the lake bed there, so it was like pushing someone on a swing. Not the most kinetic force, but devastating shaking. You might enjoy modeling that one. Bravo!
@@EarthquakeSim I’m going to to look now, ❤️. Not many people know this, but I woke up pulling G forces in my freaking bed! Like waking up and physics has just gone allllll wrong. And you can’t hear it coming when it starts under you. But before the shaking started, the ground popped up underneath me so violently I was shoved down into my mattress. If you do a simulation of the epicenter, you could include that.
The scariest place to be will be the coast. As Alice Isn't Dead put it: "If you're standing on the beach, Even if you start running the moment the dogs start barking, you don't have enough time to escape."
I live on the Oregon coast and we FEAR this and the Tsunami that will follow. We are 10 miles away from the beach but we have rivers and creeks all around our property! Like the Expert's say (It's not if but when because WE are over due for the next Big One!
Actually the damage would likely be worse. A 9.0 earthquake is going to be long, more than 5 minutes, longer than this video. And typically earthquakes ramp up to maximum fairly quickly. Both the jolts and long shaking are destructive. Some things might withstand a shorter time, but gradually come apart. In Anchorage, the fault went through the city and dropped part of it 8'. Still, it was interesting to see the differences, particularly because ive been in a number of earthquakes of various amounts. After Northridge I moved and specifically chose a place with few natural disasters.
Here from another video you responded to Me in :D (I haven't watched the video yet I will edit this once I do) Ok i found out theres more than 1 gas station videos, also the lights blinking is the realistic part that i wanted, ty 😄 (altho i suggested it after it happened)
3:16 The 1960 Chile Earthquake of 9.6 Magnitude and the 1964 Alaska Earthquake of a Magnitude of 9.1 and the 2011 Japan Earthquake also a Magnitude of a 9.1
Oh, good! As someone who lives within spitting distance of the Cascadia subduction zone, I guess it's time to give myself some nightmare fuel. In reality, though, if you live in the PNW, you just sort of exist in a perpetual fatalistic state, lol.
The 9.0+ magnitude quake will rock the world for 5-10 minutes. It would seem endless. It would be 30 times stronger than an 8.0, 900 times stronger than a 7.0, 2700 times stronger than a 6.0
Looks like, first, you have to survive the earthquake, and then 10 minutes to 15, here comes the tsunami! A terrible.,terrible, Catastophic event, when this happens! Last Cascadian 9.0 earthquake, happened in 1700 A. D. Personally, I would move elsewhere as soon as possible. Same goes for those in Southern California, which is also overdue, for a very large quake! There have been several prophecies about these earthquakes coming soon! Look up Sadhu Sundar Salvarej's messages on 3 large earthquakes coming to the U.S. Cascadia, southern California, and the New Madrid fault line, down the center of the U.S.
I have vertical movements in my other simulations. This was impossible to achieve because of some software limitations if the earthquake is longer than 1 minute... 🙃😁
@@EarthquakeSim I love it the Cascadia Subduction Zone. While it's only 10-30% likely to occur in my lifetime, I'm trying to do whatever I can to be in the best position possible for myself and my house. Like seismic retrofitting/etc. And there is virtually zero complete and accurate info out there., very frustrating to have to piece-meal it all together.
Not very accurate no depth of quake accounted for which means this is not accurate the quake that hit cali was a 7.3 and no where near this level of damage.....

I would think that aside from the complete and utter devastation of all major cities from the quake itself, there would inevitably be a tsunami from such a powerful earthquake and probably a big one too. I would think that one possible event would be that if it managed to agitate activity out of some of the cascade volcanoes that are particularly active like Mount Saint Helens or otherwise potentially dangerous like Mount Hood, or Mount Rainier. At the very least there could be the concern of avalanches and significant rock falls from those volcanoes from the earthquake. To add insult to injury it is entirely possible that some areas might suffer from wildfires caused by ruptured gas lines in some areas away from the coast that weren’t affected by the tsunami. Do you think that might be a potential outcome to such a hypothetical event?
Can you do a simulation of the Japan 2011 earthquake for the upcoming 13th anniversary of that disaster?
that would actually be a great idea!!!!!!! I will make it!
I just saw a post on twitter saying that a 9 magnitude earthquake could happen any moment now on the west coast. Yikes.
It’s been 300 years since last big one
not on the San Andreas or related faults.
There is a small town in Washington that has a "Lahar Surfing Club"...members keep a surf-board on the roof of their homes.
Their plan is to surf all the way to Puget Sound.
Lahar maps and emergency escape routes are just daily reality when you live above a huge subduction zone!
I had learned that Cascadia would be an up/down quake, not sideways. I was taught that a 9.0 Cascadia would be very different from what a 9.0 San Andreas would be like. Imagine the ground heaving up and down perhaps lifting and dropping 3ft or more rapidly. No human has ever recorded a 9.0 subduction zone quake in history. I think only the trees in this video would have remained standing, and possibly the vehicle would have been much more damaged if they'd been tossed up and down over and over again
Hard to believe that the shaking will continue for over 5+ minutes once the CSZ goes off again like it did in 1700.
@@JulieGreen721 yes indeed…
Im always satisfied me and i learned new things about earthquakes ❤ anyways what was that orange glow?
It was an explosion 🙂
This does a good job of capturing what it feels like.
I can't imagine being in a 9. 😱
So the lesson is, if you want to survive a 9.0 earthquake, stand under a gas pump canopy😂
I was almost over the epicenter of the Northridge earthquake. This is not a bad simulation, especially up to magnitude 6 or so. Then it departs from reality very quickly.
Some observations from an eye witness if you will allow me?
After 6 you start to get longer periods of horizontal ground movement. The ground here is apparently lurching a yard or two back and forth. After 6.5 especially? That distance covered by the sway or lurch increases, but that increase varies. But the 1971 quake had a longer sway than higher magnitudes displayed here.
But the big discrepancy is that all your movement is in a two dimensional plane. In the Northridge quake? I was thrown at and bumped my head on a 12 foot ceiling. Well I say thrown, but it was more like the ground left me, and then came back up to smack me. Even smaller quakes, if you’re out in the wild? You can see the ground moving in a wave coming right at you. It can pick you up and throw you off your feet.
If you want realism, you’re going to have to add another axis of movement.
@@dianelipson5420 i have added the vertical component on all my new simulations! Cheers 😁
@@dianelipson5420 and thanks for sharing your feedback about the Northridge quake :)
@@dianelipson5420 I’ve also made a simulation of the Northridge quake on my channel and you can definitely see what you just described:)
@@EarthquakeSim I’m so very glad! Because you have uncannily captured the lateral motion brilliantly. Do you know about that Mexico quake, that bad one last century? The waves matched the frequency of the lake bed there, so it was like pushing someone on a swing. Not the most kinetic force, but devastating shaking. You might enjoy modeling that one. Bravo!
@@EarthquakeSim I’m going to to look now, ❤️. Not many people know this, but I woke up pulling G forces in my freaking bed! Like waking up and physics has just gone allllll wrong. And you can’t hear it coming when it starts under you. But before the shaking started, the ground popped up underneath me so violently I was shoved down into my mattress. If you do a simulation of the epicenter, you could include that.
The scariest place to be will be the coast. As Alice Isn't Dead put it: "If you're standing on the beach, Even if you start running the moment the dogs start barking, you don't have enough time to escape."
Is cascadia a slip fault or a subduction zone
Can you simulate the 9.6 Chile earthquake? and if possible the 6.8 earthquake in Azerbaijan?
@@KarabakhEdits do you know at what depth 9.6 Chile quake?
@@M.Ziz-66 like around 30kms
@@KarabakhEdits jeeezz!! that was categorized as shallow quake, 9.6, 30 km to the surface.. must been felt like that was the last day of us 😖
Can you please do earthquake simulations on the Space Needle, and The Golden Gate Bridge, along with the rest of San Francisco? Pleeeeeaaaaase?
Yes of course:)
@@EarthquakeSim Thanx.
5.2 Magnitude Earthquake the same range from Bakersfield CA a few days ago
I live on the Oregon coast and we FEAR this and the Tsunami that will follow.
We are 10 miles away from the beach but we have rivers and creeks all around our property!
Like the Expert's say (It's not if but when because WE are over due for the next Big One!
Actually the damage would likely be worse. A 9.0 earthquake is going to be long, more than 5 minutes, longer than this video. And typically earthquakes ramp up to maximum fairly quickly. Both the jolts and long shaking are destructive. Some things might withstand a shorter time, but gradually come apart. In Anchorage, the fault went through the city and dropped part of it 8'.
Still, it was interesting to see the differences, particularly because ive been in a number of earthquakes of various amounts. After Northridge I moved and specifically chose a place with few natural disasters.
A magnitude 9 quake will max out shaking for no longer than a moment at the most. The rest will be less intense shaking but for up to maybe 6 mins.
Wow! The canopy over the gas pumps stayed up the whole time
2:17 The same range damage from the 1985 Mexico City Quake a Magnitude of 8.0
Construction crane in the background: *I DIDN'T HEAR NO BELL*
i can literally feel the vibrations in my ears through the headphones
Whelp the Seattle city are now reduce to rubble
A marked improvement
Here from another video you responded to Me in :D
(I haven't watched the video yet I will edit this once I do)
Ok i found out theres more than 1 gas station videos, also the lights blinking is the realistic part that i wanted, ty 😄 (altho i suggested it after it happened)
its sad to see that this simulation ended very fast 😭😭
im was expecting it for more than 6 min@@Ifromfridaynightfunk
Can we see one with NYC?
Yes
@@EarthquakeSim Yay! Thank you! I feel very honored that you responded to me ☺️
That C7 corvette was just dancin
Dawg that is crazy, a 4:18 long earthquake
3:16 The 1960 Chile Earthquake of 9.6 Magnitude and the 1964 Alaska Earthquake of a Magnitude of 9.1 and the 2011 Japan Earthquake also a Magnitude of a 9.1
@@stevesibaja3123 Japan 2011 9.1?? why i've seen many said it's 7.1? which one correct?
@@stevesibaja3123 I've heard the 1964 Alaska Earthquake was 9.2. It was the second strongest earthquake ever recorded.
@@M.Ziz-66 9.1, yes.
Wow! You know a lot about earthquakes! 😊
Yeah! The gas station has collapsed, the driveway is in rubble, but the awning still stands!!
Everythong should just be made out of cranes 😂
2:23 The Bayford October 18 Earthquake
Oh, good! As someone who lives within spitting distance of the Cascadia subduction zone, I guess it's time to give myself some nightmare fuel. In reality, though, if you live in the PNW, you just sort of exist in a perpetual fatalistic state, lol.
The 9.0+ magnitude quake will rock the world for 5-10 minutes. It would seem endless. It would be 30 times stronger than an 8.0, 900 times stronger than a 7.0, 2700 times stronger than a 6.0
wow. That petrol station roof is more flexible than me. 🤣
Pls 17 august 1999 İzmit and 12 nowember 1999 düzce earthquake simulation can you do it? 😊
I have the seismic data. I could make a simulation soon!
@@EarthquakeSim thank you :)))
海外には、耐震基準が無いので、被害大絶亡ですが、我が国、日本国は、耐震基準震度6強以上に、耐える建築に、法律で、定めているので、大丈夫。建築物が大破しても、人命を守る優先が基本ですから。
start doing more of this earthquake
Imagine a earthquake that last 5 minutes tho 🤯🤯
Unfortunately such large earth quakes can last that long. The 2004 Sumatra earthquake lasted 10 minutes.
@@bensmall6548That earthquake lasted THAT LONG?!?! 😳
@@GracemarieJohnson2763 Yes it did last that long. Mega thrust quakes which is what they’re called, can last for several minutes
Wow...hope it never happens in my lifetime.
California is over due for one.
3:39 Como aquí en Chile 🇨🇱 en 1960 en la ciudad de Valdivia.
I’m from cascadia 😨
Friggin' Slurpee machine is now borked too.
It is hypothesized that everything West of I-5 will be toast.
And I live just .5 miles East.
So, if I don't move, I probably will be toast.
Yay!
How about 6.8 earthquake back in 2001? We had pretty a good jolt in the Seattle area on Feb 28, 2001 and measured 6.8.
The cars:calm dancing
Looks like, first, you have to survive the earthquake, and then 10 minutes to 15, here comes the tsunami! A terrible.,terrible, Catastophic event, when this happens! Last Cascadian 9.0 earthquake, happened in 1700 A. D. Personally, I would move elsewhere as soon as possible. Same goes for those in Southern California, which is also overdue, for a very large quake! There have been several prophecies about these earthquakes coming soon! Look up Sadhu Sundar Salvarej's messages on 3 large earthquakes coming to the U.S. Cascadia, southern California, and the New Madrid fault line, down the center of the U.S.
Where's the Tsunami?🇺🇸💙🇺🇸
It looks like the earth is trying to shake us off like fleas.
Then they get hit with a tsunami.
So kids remember, the safest place during a megaquake is an orange corvette..!!!
That didn’t look too bad 😎
Why no vertical movement? Not accurate.
I have vertical movements in my other simulations. This was impossible to achieve because of some software limitations if the earthquake is longer than 1 minute... 🙃😁
@@EarthquakeSim I love it the Cascadia Subduction Zone. While it's only 10-30% likely to occur in my lifetime, I'm trying to do whatever I can to be in the best position possible for myself and my house. Like seismic retrofitting/etc. And there is virtually zero complete and accurate info out there., very frustrating to have to piece-meal it all together.
The good thing about this earthquake is that you can take your time to leave the building
ok so we're all gna die if not from the earthquake then the massive tsunami that'll follow😭
I'll be chillin in the black car 😅
I'm not sure how the pump cover could remain, nor the crane in the background. Otherwise good sim
Only the jello and the crane survived.
Thank you for the video

@@EarthquakeSim no just regular 2 story buildings maybe 3 in some of the busier areas.
from normal/calm state to 9,0, that would be excruciating. prepare for that!
Bro I'm so scared😢
@@Yeetly it's like when we play hide & seek: ... READY OR NOT, HERE I COME!
you know that, right? 😆😆
Not very accurate no depth of quake accounted for which means this is not accurate the quake that hit cali was a 7.3 and no where near this level of damage.....
Goin' to California with a SHAKIN',,,,in my heart. 🤪🤪🤪💥
Actually, above 9.0 are called “Superquakes” so this type of magnitude is a Super Earthquake
