just look at that vertical filing cabinet shifting multiple feet across the floor.... I have seen another clip where a 90 lb looking laser printer just flies

I was about 40k from the epicenter of this one. After it almost shook my GF and I out of our bed, we wandered out into the night in our bathrobes with our neighbors. It was a weird time.

The only earthquake I've ever felt took place when I visited Tokyo. I was jetlagged and went to sleep early in my hotel room. In the middle of the night I woke up to feel my entire bed shaking, and in my stupor I turned around, pounded on the wall behind me and screamed "cut it out, people are trying to sleep!" and promptly fell asleep again. I didn't even remember it until the next morning when someone in the elevator asked me if I had felt the earthquake. I was like, "earthquake? OOOOoooooohhhh...."

The ones that scare me are the ones that go on for like 30+ seconds.

I live in L.A. so I felt Whitter as my first one. Northridge was the other big one. I remember the night quake where I saw lightings from all the shakings. Scary and thats only in the 6s. I don't want to know about 7+. :I

Ironically, I get seasick easily in those minor quakes in tall buildings (2nd floor even).
