Ya i felt that one here in santa paula...we live in a small lil town close to Ventura....that was the biggest quake iv ever felt....the whole house shook for like 15-20 seconds....then me and my mother got dizzy....it was quite scary at first....out side in our back yard are some trees and windchyms....and they were swaying back and forth like it was a super windy day....it was just freaky...
I was watching the news when it happened. Couldn't get through to anybody. Even worse my brother was trying to freak me out and shook the couch that I was sitting on when I didn't see him
OH My god i felt that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I was on the computer watching something about eartquakes i fell because i was going to get a soda.WOW AN AFTERSHOKE JUST happen!
I felt this earthquake on my way to Las Vegas.. we were driving from Orange County and were about 5 mins into Anaheim, when the veh shook and swerved i was bounced around the back and me and my other buddies freaked on our buddy driving .. we were like you tryin to smash into the guardrail haha, hes like dude i didnt do that, we saw the lanes move it was crazy and then 20 minutes later we here earthquake on the radio!! wow! scary but cool
i was so scared wen i felt this earthquake!! IT WAS MY FIRT 1 THAT I FELT
well my cyzin was playin need fo speed and then her mom told her to throw the trash away and she told her after this race well she did the race and won and she was all happy and as soon as she won the earthquake happend and i saw the whole room shaken and we looked at eachother and ran to her mom
yeah. confusing. i was making another mixtape. and i had my Earthquakes(Cerwin-Vega) on i didnt kinda feel it cuz of the rattling i was alrdy haveing. till my lil sis came down tell me its an earthquake. it was pretty funny. but at the same time it hit hard enough to make my needles jump from the record.
o.k., china had another quake, after the 1st one, how long was it before cali had one, my question is do you think cali is in store for another, soon?

dude the fuckin news made such a big deal of this earthquake i live here it did nothing bad it was just a relief of pressure from a fucking fault line people kept sayin "OHH MY GOD An EARTHQUAKE ITS THE BIG ONE"...fuckin anoys me
Yea it sucks the media made such a big deal....but keep in mind also it depended on where you were exactly. I was at Cal State Fullerton and was in an elecator in one of the buildings, and it was about to close and I literally heard a loud BOOM which was the scariest part. I thought it was a terrorist attack...I just got shaken up but I wasn't terrified..everyone at our school freaked!!
its was cool and scary all i heard and saw was shaking and my 140 dollar guitar was about to fall...the damage........my ipod video fell lol but it just needed to charge even if it had battery life
jlcv00 DUDE are u mentally sick ? if California ever disappears (hope it will never happen) due to an earthquake, is not perversion, it's called TECTONIC PLATES. So no matter if ur a saint or sinner if ur there when it happens,ur just fucked up.
No, I'm not from the Midwest and I'm not a Republican. I'm a Latino from Puerto Rico and I'm Democrat. But, don't be offended for my comment. But, I will be really scared if I have to live in California.
that quake was right near my home town (literally, it was in Chino Hills and I'm from Chino) lol anyway, I felt it at school...in Santa Barbara. not the initial shake but the time after when the ground was moving like the ocean. my whole apartment building was swaying. it was cool lol i know that's wierd but whatever.
20 years ago an earthquake similar to the one that happened yesterday in whittier had a magnitude of 5.9 on the richter scale. many buildings were damaged and some were even destroyed. shows how much tougher building codes have become in the last 2 decades in california. amazingly only a handful of people got minor injuries and the worst extent of a damage was mostly things that fell off cupboards, racks, etc. fortunately for the most part the quake was more of a nusicance than a disaster
yes you are right about that. a 5.9 would be a couple of times stronger than a 5.4 tremor but i can pretty much guarantee you that back in 1987 a quake like we had on tuesday would have caused much more damage than what we saw today. my house was about 10-15 miles from the epicenter and i didnt find a single crack in the house even though the house swayed and rocked pretty hard.
I was in bed then my bed started shaking. Then my mom started to scream and the next thing I knew, I was under the kitchen table. Thank God it was only 5.4! Still scary :(
i felt this cause i was half sleep in my bed then i felt my bed shakeing then my brother said it an earth quake then i got up and hop down the stairs and fell but got up and hid that was powerful and scary man!!!!!!!!
I really saw this coming, because few days ago there where some shaking but it was small you could feel it but not like yesterday's i was so like whats going on, but i wasn't scare because i already experience two big earthquakes one was 6.5 and 6.7 i think and those happen in 2 months in January and February , and idk i got used to after that thats why i was scare, and i know this is weird but i love the shaking ^_^
omg lol this shit scared me i was here on the computer and then it just started shaking!!! i thought my desk was guna fall on me so ran under the door shit...
man dis waz just unexpected cuz i waz just watchin spongebob at my cuzin's house lol then i heard like a little boom sound and i waz like WTH! then shaking lol i just walked and went under da table luckily my cuzin's wii didn't fall i'd be so pissed!
I live in encino in the san fran valley and damn it shook over here i jumped out of bed like no tommorow haha i just moved here from florida u gotta feel me
