The Richter magnitude is mainly about how much energy released, not the shaking intensity.
Although the amount of energy released can influence the shaking, most earthquakes are different. I've lived through on heck of a year in Christchurch, New Zealand, and believe me, record breaking earthquakes in terms of intensity are INSANE!!!
i read about the earthquakes a lot and i have read that a 5 magnitude earthquake is 10 times stronger than a 4 m. earthquake and a 6 m. e.q. is 10 times stronger than a 5 m. e.q and a 7 m. e.q is 10 times stronger than a 6 m. earthquake and is goes like this!
Normally an unsecured drawer like that would likely to fall over with a magnitude just 6.0-6.5 due to extremely large shaking building with 3 directions of shaking power the building would shake hard and knock EVERYTHING on the drawer and including itself fell. Moreover in an earthquake 8.0 or higher the buildings(unsecured) is NOT likely to survive and collapse so we don't even need to talk about the drawer.
@landof101dreams I had a teacher tell me she had a class out side at UCSB and they had to fall on the ground and hold the grass in for this one earthquake. This was like in 83 she told us about that.
soz bro i was in the christchurch earthquakes (7.1 6.3 and the second 6.3) no offence but that was a shitty simulation and quakes dont just go back and ford they go every direction!!!!!!!!!!! noooooooooooooooooooooooooob
I think people aren't considering that there is a size difference between a desk and a house. So consider people, if you were as tall as barbie, to fit in the car, and you were on the desk. Then you could get an idea of the comparison.
@nzkiwihawk far more destructive because everything was shaking instead of one book shelf shaking. I know what you mean, and during the earthquake, you can feel more scared and it can feel more intense than it actually is.
I would argue that all your simulations below 6 are out by about one point (the 3 is really a 2.5, the 4 is a 3 etc)
By about a 6 the furniture you are using would have moved away and by 7 will have fallen over! In an 8 it would have thrown you and your camera against the next wall...in a 9 everything in the room would have picked up and hit the ceiling :0)
@mulattokid No theyre about right with wiggling their dresser. The sound isnt quite right and the 9.0 was just weird. It was like the shaking was in a pattern.
@enriqueyumsnarf You, my friend, are absolutely correct. In the real world, a 9.0 is likely to last for a long time; the 8.8 Chile earthquake lasted 1.5 minutes and the 9.1 earthquake that caused the Boxer tsunami lasted for about 20-30 minutes.
@jhweather well, The earthquake i lived, 8.8 here in chile was huge, it was shaking for 3 minutes, The Biggest earthquake in the World was here too, in Valdivia in 1961... It was the longest too, with almost 10 minutes, and a huge tsunami...
@jhweather And that "9.0 " of yours did less damage than the 1994 northridge earthquake which was a 6.7, the dresser would of been on the ground and everything on the dresser would of been shaken off.

JUST BECAUSE MAGNITUDE IS BIG, DOSEN"T MEAN THAT THE PERCEIVED SHAKING IS BIG.
Feb 22 earthquake=Mag. 6.3. Perceived Shaking was record breaking.

All earthquakes you tried to simulate (in a very bad way) are stronger then the earthquakes simulated in this video.
