[UnbanBlue]

down where i live the street 3 blocks down me start to rise and make a super speed bump and after it whent back.

[lusoguyJesuspower]

in Toronto....we dont even get that in vancouver, and we're due for a megaquake

[lulzwecare]

@lusoguyJesuspower Ironic timing for that comment eh? :P

[lusoguyJesuspower]

@lulzwecare I how huh! We had a little earthquake that day haha...i thot it was recent news about toronto :p

[TheOntarioguy420]

i thought it was the road repiar men but the news told it all back on June 23rd 2010 now its August 19th 2011 time flys eh

[theleb4life]

This was all over the news because in this part of the world ( eastern Canada) we usually get 1 or 2 noticable earthquakes that are small ( magnitude 2-3) but a magnitude 5 is very rare here. The strongest in the area was a 6.0 back in the 50's, so this was the second biggest quake in the area.

[jdaniels161]

new york is ext prepre ur self usa

[lyndapies]

I remember that earthquake. But I didn't feel it.

[Megashadow2000]

This quake was my alarm clock. Apparently Earth wanted me to wake the hell up. lol

[choochinbigtime420]

4:11 60 kms North of Oshawa!? hahaha fail!

[SecretQT1]

Haha i remembered this

[pilotsism]

OMG CHILL MAN 5.0 IS NOTHING ROFL

[StevenShields29]

5.0? Zzzzzzzz.....

[DeathByBlunderbuss]

LOL the guy at 1:27 behind the news reporter has a shirt on that says fuck on it.

[wcwbtnikki]

omg i was so scared haha i was sitting on a bunk bed i thought the cat was on the top bunk scratching and then i looked around the room and everything was shaking so i was like OMG and ran downstairs eeee.

[majorfaultline]

30 seconds??? That's impressive when you cause the quake from your fist! No one is satisfied anymore...!

[djxzena]

I was i school doing math games with the class next door, and our game stuff fell over, then her water bottle began to shake then fell off her desk, and when we found out later that it was an earthquake we were all like, "what the hell!"

[BOULDERDP]

Toronto wussies don't know what an earthquake and true natural disaster is. Look at Haiti. When your whole physical world crumbles, then you'll know.

[Shewolf97x]

@BOULDERDP how would they know? Canada hasnt experienced earthquakes before(not that i know of). So of course they'd make a big fuss of it. 

[Bugstomper2]

I was on the VIVA bus at the time. Felt nothing. But my friend was at work, downtown in the upper part of a building and felt it.

[EmpireLS56KW]

Everyone else has automatic common sense to fucking run get out of the building! You have no idea how long it will last for or how strong it will grow or how long the building will stay up for. You don’t, just don’t hang around inside.

[figure261]

we were inside my school and the teacher was teeling us to read abook and it was scilent all of a sudden we hear a sream and the school started to shake XD for some reason the principle rang the fire alarm for us to evacuate we wwere all confused

[TheAnderman]

Tom Brown is a crustal plate.

[lemonrind]

Ah yes, the big "Toronto" earthquake... that happened in Ottawa-Gatineau.

[SlipKnoT5MFL]

lol its funny watching people feel their first quake. Everybody over-reacts and freaks out. Evacuations for a 5.0 lmfao.

[sweiland75]

@mikeohoh7 "has canada ever had a terrorist attack?" Yes, my ignorant Yankee neighbour, we have. I would tell you about it, but I get the feeling that would be a futile attempt, because you would just spew more of your anti-Canadian rhetoric.

[sweiland75]

@mikeohoh7 I can't wait until the next 9/11 to happen to your country. Hopefully, it will be a nuclear bomb that will kill many more of you pathetic Yanks.

[titanicmasters]

You i find it rlly funny how noone here knew it was an earthquake >.> the ones who thought it was an earthquake ran for the doors ... if uve never felt an earthquake (most of us, younger ones especially, thought it was impossible) wouldnt u run to the door? especially after all the hype form haiti? california makes no big deal because they get it all the time, canadians are smart for acting with NO preparedness plan between the citizens >.> they dont teach us in schools what to do incase.

[djxzena]

@titanicmasters they should teach us about what 2 do in an earthquake incase something like that happens again

[AnimationArtist001]

lol i was at school at this time and everyone thought it was the kids next to us jumping up and down :P

[miniteen59]

it hit timmins ontario as well...8-9 hours north of toronto

[Joydawn]

I did not feel it. Only 2 people I know noticed anything at all. My co worker noticed a wall shaking apparently, and my friend heard a rattling. Otherwise, barely anyone knew there was an earthquake till I mentioned it, I heard about it on the news...

[mattisprettycool]

this just goes to show you how boring Toronto really is. a small earthquake that lasts less than ONE minute has every news station buzzing. I wonder what Haiti must think of us.

[kjai722]

He suppose to say Ottawa but said Oshawa at 4:14

[Allogagan]

I am in Ithaca , New York and I didn't feel a thing either but yet everyone was talking about it... at 5.5 you would think more people would have felt it.

[gome88]

i live in Mississauga and i felt it in my room when my brother didn't feel it in the basement...i was trying to figure out what was going on and i went to check under my brothers bed to see if anyone was under his bed then my mom called telling me it was an earth quake

[CHC2P]

I was in burlington at my school and I did not felt it

[xXTHEMASTERSXx]

oh my fucking gawd!!!!!!! WE LIVE ON A FAULT LINE!?!?!?! i live in the niagara region and we felt it prety good... its freaking scary as hell that theres a fault line running right thru toronto tho... i ddnt know that, somehow thats one of the few things they conveniently forget to teach us in school >.< one of the only things that will actually matter for our well being..

[burning3y3s]

hey, i was in my french class when the earthquake happened, everyone in class felt the shake too.

Montreal, Quebec. (Park Extension)

[Ridhwanpop]

[zakestar]

@thiscantbetaken12321 If you were sitting you would be like "OH SH*T WHATS THAT?" first you would think it was a lound sound or sumthign but then you would be like REALLY scared even though it was like 30 secs,hope that explains how it felt

[snipergimp]
