  • some aussies were laughing this happened

  • @KINGxTROLL You're a tool buddy. I'm an Australian and I certainly wasn't laughing. Hundreds of people form our sister country died. And not only that, I WAS THERE!

    Respect to our New Zealand neighbours. Your country and your people are beautiful and if I could afford it, I'd move from Australia to the South Island.

  • 0:28 ... lol.

  • my friend was studding in some institute that collapse put he survived

  • ok first of all - this was a 7.1, not a 7.4. i know as i was in it. there was another 5.? on boxing day 2010 and a 6.3 on the 22 of february 2011. i know as i was in this one as well - in fact i was in the city about 2 blocks from one the buildings that collapsed. thank you from christchurch to those who have offered sympathies and help - it has been much appreciated. to those who think that all of us are religious because we live in a city called christchurch - we arent. my family is atheist

  • much love Christchurch, from Rotavegas to you all.. Keep an eye on 'Deeziiboii", I'll bee releasing a Dedication song for you before the end of the week, sorry its taken so long, but it will be finished by the end of the week

    KIA KAHA ChCh, jah bless

  • it was 7.1 sort it out, and or 6.3 did double the damage of the 7.1

  • @josh123223

    The 6.3 was a lot more shallow than the 7.1 one earthquake.

  • the quake is too weak....hope for more intensity please...how about intensity 11? that's good to see how would it look like!

  • @hondacaptiva You need to get a life. You've written the same thing on about 10 different videos regarding the Christchurch Earthquake. LOL. How do you even get out of bed in the morning?!

  • My prayers go out to you.

    This makes me so nervous, California is expecting a big one...

  • Good grief, you really are a prick

  • Our Thoughts and Our Prayers goes out to people of New Zealand.

  • To All people Out Of nz Deathtoll Has Gone Up to 113 and 200 missing.

    R.I.P To All That Have Gone Let The Kiwi Spirit Remain With Them :'(

  • We are in the verge of losing a city to mother nature, chch will soon become uninhabitable

  • The hardest part about listening to the tragedies in New Zealand is the fucking accent.

  • @mearsehole I see your email name is mearshole, don't you mean arsehole? How incredible that someone

    could make a comment about an accent in the midst of such tragedy and misery! People with no compassion like you deserve no respect.

  • @MrMurray1949 Look at the bright side.. all the sheep are vibrating.

  • Well in my beliefs.... GOD is real!!! Nd this is a sign of his returning

  • Damn. I love how some of them are just laughing it off. None of them were crying. Respect!

  • during the cold war the white worlde order was bizzy attacking the inner terrestriale beings of the earthe in the name of nucleare testes nowe they are fighting backe

  • I love how events like this bring out the "nutjobs"!! Hahahahahaha......anywho, my thoughts are with you folks in Christchurch! :)

  • a CATHEDRAL in a city named after God/Son CHRIST CHURCH collasped. Compaered to buildings in background., ''GOD'' must hate this catherdral, prob too shtty looking. O look, god killed all those ppl buried in rubble. Don't send them to Hospitals if they are religious, let them pray to god and see if god grant them healing. Problem?

  • Nice !

  • I'm from Britain, poor New Zealand and Australia has had a hard time with the floods too! Australia is my favourite country apart from my own (England).

  • I am a muslim and I found you guys are quite cool that your city was destroyed in earthquake.Some people was smiling and laughing .I just curious,was it GOD send this earthquake as a message as in Bible and Al-Quran or was it just Natural Disaster?If I seems rude?I am sorry,I was only curious.Please give me your true opinion,regardless or race or colour.I am willing to receive criticism,just as long it comes from your true feeling and heart,May GOD help us.

  • @kapal1234 Nonsense.

  • What medieval nonsense. You think that, as of old, if we don't totally understand something then it must be down to another force, (a god - with thoughts and feelings like our own)? Goodness, we know enough about our planet to be able to totally explain what happened. Why would you think that humans are so so important that a massive force clearly caused by tectonic plates re-arrange would be something to do with them? Of course it's nothing to do with the people. Your God must be very evil.

  • @kapal1234 God or ulla or jesus or what ever you want to call it doesnt exist broski.

    sooner you god fearing countrys realise that, the sooner you can advance out of filth

  • @beyondthelol Tell me a thing. Are you a witty person?

    .

    If you are witty then where is your wit. I can't see it.

  • @looserofssuet witty? perhaps, but that is not for me to judge nor care.

    what i am, is confident in my belief's that god in any form does not exist.

  • youtube should make these vids ad free. its not apropriate to show ads when disaster strikes

  • wat is Google toch een stompzinnig bedrijf door tijdens dit soort rampen gewoon die stompzinnige reclames te gaan uitzenden. Walgelijk Google!!!

  • @Riana718 thanks for taking time to answer.

  • What does the lady say on 0:41 We got no ?

  • @riesbergen "We've got no power." They have thick accents. lulz

  • @cricage17 Thanks for answering. And? lulz..is it the same as "fun"?

  • Shut up the adds

  • not even a raw video.

  • THIS VIDEO IS one year old you retards!!!!!!!!!!

  • Poor Chistchurch and by the way apparently it was 6.4 not 7.3

  • @staceyrox360 Look when this Video was posted and listen to the expert at 0:13

    The recent (Feb 2011) earthquake isn't the only earthquake to hit New Zealand.

    They had a 7.4 back in September of 2010. The video and the healine is correct and is in reference to the September 2010 earthquake.

  • The voiceover is missing cause the person doing it died in the earthquake.

  • Interesting that a big earthquake seems to hit a place called christchurch that ive never heard of with everything thats going on in the world lately. Some kind of sign? What do all of you people think?

  • @OprahsMingeSaid @OprahsMingeSaid Earthquakes happen in NZ very often... Its a natural disaster, you couldnt say the volacano in Iceland was a sign seeing as that was called Eyjafjallajökull... These things happen, its horrible, but I dont think its a sign, just the way the world works!

  • 2012

  • @BLACKCLOWN818 Its early 2011....

  • This is from september for the people that think this is the current disaster

  • unbelievable all the youtube advertisements you have to watch now,

    Prayers to the victims of this disaster

  • The irony of a Church minibus being destroyed by a force of nature...

    It's amazing to see how different parts of the World react to an Earthquake or this size. Hope everyone's ok!

  • Notice this video was uploaded last year in September and isnt the recent earthquake that just happened....

  • from Australian peoples thoughts and prayers go out to nz brothers and sisters

  • video Libya does NOT want you to see!

    This must STOP!!!

    youtube.com/watch?v=bcGNjXNoeS­Q

  • This isn't raw footage, this is pretty much a news story except without the reporters speaking

  • Apparently Christianity is the wrong religion... :p I mean come on... Christchurch!! 

  • @sgthunter09 Earth quakes happen there very often. You dont say Islam is the wrong religion because Iran had an earthquake there some time ago... Its a city on a fault line, its got fuck all to do with its name. You could have called it Islambuddisthindujudaismchrist­ianityscientologysihkism and the earthquake still would have happened.

  • @tomi1990 I am aware of all that... its still ironic that a city called Christchurch got demolished by what insurance companies call "An act of god."

  • @sgthunter09 Only a number buildings in the town centre, the last thing I would call it would be a demolishment.

  • @tomi1990 and one of those buildings was that cathedral in the heart of the city

  • @sgthunter09 @sgthunter09 I am almost certain most buildings built in the 1800's would not survive a NUMBER of earth quakes (such as september last year) so thats a load of crap.

  • @tomi1990 ur missing the point. Or should I say... avoiding it? U cant handle things that go against ur beliefs xD

  • @sgthunter09 You asked if I made up a word?? I havent avoided any point of yours... I am all up for hearing your a new perspective... thats what debate is called.... 

  • @tomi1990 is that a word? You just made up a word.

  • @aspellmclellan What word did i apparently make up? You really should reference it.

  • is that a word? You just made up a word.

  • i live in southern california USA, as my heart and prayers go to those that have lost. i wish all a speedy recovery.

    from the furry groups, god bless all down under.

  • Geodude used magnitude7

    It was super effective.

  • I lived in California all my life, so I know a thing or two about earthquakes. All earthquakes are scary! I meet out of state visitors all the time, and they are the first people to cry and call for their mom. So for all of you to talk shit about people who are in shock by experiencing the world around them shake and fall apart, you are 100% bitch made. I guarantee at least 80% who talk shit, never been through one. And would be the first to act nervous when one hits you. prayers to New Zealand

  • Thinking of all in christchurch and new zealand.

  • 1 week ago we had a earthquake in Germany. I didn´t recodnized it, because it wasn´t that bad and I live on a mountain. But...it is scary. Years ago we never had earthquakes and in the last years they are more and more. But I hope it will never be like in New Zealand.

  • @000666000 -ich hab ihn gespürt

  • @coolcruise

    Echt? Dann musst du wohl näher an Koblenz wohnen. Ich habs am nächsten Tag erst in der Uni erfahren, hier war es nicht so stark.

  • @000666000 -hab dir ne pm gesendet

  • 7.4 pshhhh pansies

  • :-(

  • :-(

  • From the USA: Our thoughts and prayers go out to our friends in NZ!!

  • @alwaysright69 thank you very much we apprciate all that everyone is doing to possibly help. :) from new zealand

  • This is a report from the earlier EQ in Nz aint it?

  • horrible

  • To see reinforced concrete pillars shatter and the streets buckle like that.... lots of ground movement... Wonder how deep the epicenter was... maybe pretty shallow.... Many condolences from USA....

  • why the fuck would they have ads before a shocking ass video

  • Find out when next earthquake may take place:

    WORLD-EARTHQUAKES . COM

  • I'm from Perrth, Western Australia. To Earthquake New Zealander people for RIP

    I'm very sad.

  • This is the old EQ btw. THE FUCKING OLD ONE. Y'know, the one where no-one died.

  • its completely heartbreaking seeing this now

    Rip to those who have left us in the 2011 quake we are praying for you and your families

  • R.I.P all those who have lost their lives in the 2011 Christchurch Earhtquake

  • it wasn't 7.4 it was 6.4

  • @AnimeKitten34 STFU! there were 2 earthquakes over here. one in september last year, one yesterday. check when the vid was uploaded before you say it wasnt 7.4 it was 6.4... the second was 6.4 and only hit harder cause it was VERY shallow and was on buildings that already were damaged

  • this was last yr

  • Our Father who art in heaven,

    hallowed be thy name.

    Thy kingdom come.

    Thy will be done

    on earth as it is in heaven.

    Give us this day our daily bread,

    and forgive us our trespasses,

    as we forgive those who trespass against us,

    and lead us not into temptation,

    but deliver us from evil

  • Dear anyone winging about the ads on youtube, if you use firefox download "Adblock Plus". I havent seen an ad on youtube since i got it. If you use internet explorer, you need to get firefox !

  • to the person leaving "Islam is the truth people!! " on all the earth quake videos. maybe its the truth to you but not to me and many other people in NZ. stop using this natural disaster as a recruiting tool.

  • Islam is the truth people!!

  • @RayKalmNiam Jesus is the answer!

  • Comment removed

  • @RayKalmNiam - unless you're completely wrong and it's the Hindu's that have it right.

  • @freakystyley4000 or unless your completely wrong and the mulims have it right ? and by the way is it necessary to argue with people about something that has nothing to do with the video?

  • para los cristianos que piensan que todo es un jucio de Dios aqui tienen la prueba de que esto puede ser por causas naturales y profeticas!

  • how the fuck can you put an ad before a video covering a tragicEARTHQUAKE

  • that poor Subaru

  • Ko Rūaumoko e ngunguru nei!

  • Stupid You tube, no one is interested in watching your obnoxious ads. Especially before videos like this.

  • @musubi69

    Ko Rūaumoko e ngunguru nei!

  • @musubi69 If you use Firefox, you can get the AdBlock add-on. No more ads, ever.

    addons dot mozilla dot org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=Ad­Block&cat=all&x=0&y=0

  • @DickHBox Wow thanks.

  • @musubi69 Bandwidth is not free, idiot

  • @ind0ril Haha.. Is that all you had to say??

  • @musubi69 Yes. It summed up pretty well how idiot you are, demanding something that costs money, but you do nothing in return.

  • @ind0ril I did not say what I said because I thought bandwidth was free. The ads are just obnoxious. Are they not?

  • @musubi69  Yeah its getting a bit overbearing. There getting big money, evertime we watch it.

  • @musubi69 There making money off of us.

  • @musubi69 download adblock plus, I completely forgot that youtube had ads until i read your comment haha

  • @musubi69 its not because of youtube, its because of the uploader, if he is a youtubepartner, these ads will appear automatically

  • @musubi69 its worth remembering who owns youtube = GOOGLE!

  • Everyone, just incase you don't know this is footage from last year's earthquake. This year's one that just happened on the 22nd Feb was a 6.3 and the epicentre was in Lyttelton.

  • @88Rayjay Oh the Humanity!!! :( Yara will light a candle!!! ;o)

  • This is the punishment of God because the people of New Zealand are not mindful of attending church mass during sunday. They are busy going to shopping mall, picnics, watching tv and drinking making merry by drinking and eating.

    This is the punishment of God.

  • @TheIxtlan Shopping, picnics, TV and making merry are all works of the devil hu? You’re an idiotic senses moron, you hateful deluded cretin.

  • @TheIxtlan You dam jesus freak how dare you say that sort of shit,if there was a god, not that there is, not he ,she, it, or whatever would not cause earhquaks,you idiot fuck you,fuck your god,fuck your stupid religion now crawl up in a ball and bounce all the way to your HELL..........................­.....

  • @TheIxtlan i think you need a help from a specialist in brains idiot

  • @TheIxtlan Your a fucking idiot! By the way people this is the old earthquake of 2010 not the one that happened yesterday!

  • get the fuck out of the southern hemisphere Nibiru is pulling on the south side of the planet as it comes in from that direction. this shit will be worldwide in a few months.

    you have been warned of 2012 by lots of people you thought were crazy conspiracy nuts. look at what is happening in the world and get your heads out of your ass.

    just wait.

  • @stripes5150 Its 2011 though.....

  • @tomi1990 so

  • @stripes5150 So why talk about 'december the 21st 2012'? its a natural disaster.... get over it

  • @tomi1990 you fucking get over your mother cutting you off her tit fuckface...lol

  • @stripes5150 Wow... you are cleary retarded in believe some ancient Mayan crap about the world ending. And that insult has to be the worst I have ever heard. Get over yourself and instead of prophesising about 2012, ghosts and Faries maybe go out and do something benficial like give to a charity or even do some volunteer work. Then you can LIVE your life instead of living about death.

  • @tomi1990

    Wtf is BENFICIAL??? CLEARY??? PROPHESISING???

    And who said anything about ghosts and FARIES?....

    It's FAIRIES!!

    You should know that first hand!

    Learn to spell...lol

  • @stripes5150 Sorry you had to take the time out to use your spellchecker to find a problem in my argument. I think you will find I took 2 minutes out of my JOB in the financial capital of the world to find out some more info and see how the people of NZ are doing and in the mean time learning more about how they are dealing with it. So sorry I didn't spell check it for you, but I wouldnt give you 10 seconds of my life you moron. Go back to your backward lifestyle and start worrying about 2012.

  • 65 KILLED IN EARTHQUAKE IN CHRISTCHURCH :O

    YESTURDAY!!!!!

  • This is HAARP activity. Australia might be next. Earthquakes & floodings will be all over the globe!

    Depopulation is taking place now. People wake up to the HAARP, CHEMTRAILS, contaminated vaccination, Research this. Say NO to the New World Order! Research ILLUMINATI.

    WAKE UP ALL!!!

  • @SahMai Its not that bad, depopulation will happen sooner or later. Most likey to happen in 3rd world countries, its all terrible but it is a surplus population

  • @YanMcDanish Why would you even reply to his comment? Its an absolutely load of bollocks. Totally irrelevant to this video.

  • @jlebesis But u were talking about depopulation :(

  • @YanMcDanish Hey mate, sorry just wanted to say I never saw your reply to my comment till today..my apologies! :/

  • @SahMai Are you fuckin serious??? Mate, this was an EARTHQUAKE...why are you on about HAARP etc??? Do you even know what HAARP is? What does a Chemtrail have to do with an earthquake..movement of the earths crust. New Zealand is seated on whats known as the 'Ring of Fire' a faultline full of volcanoes and plate movement. Thats why this happens. Serisously I believe the stuff about Illumanati, but this is far from it..seriously get your head together before you post such bullshit.

  • Comment removed

  • Laugh all you want NZ cuz next time it might kill you

  • @kungf0o0o0

    terrible. today it hit nz again

  • looks like it caused a lot of damage, sympathies to all who had to go through that.

  • why doesnt anything interesting happen to auckland?? bring on the earthquake!!lol

  • A frightening time - no people lost - a lot of credit needs to be given to the engineers who have taken precautions when building houses and shoring up older ones.

  • How are conditions outside the impact zone?

    Are there tsunami warnings in effect?

  • @davepamn I live in christchurch, no chance of tsunami as eppicenter 30km out from christchurch inland.

  • @davepamn I live in christchurch, no chance of tsunami as eppicenter 30k
