[silverbogie]

I'm from California, so 4.7 doesn't seem like much to me, but it's crazy that it happened in England!

[shazzerhull]

[tickertyboo43]

i live near the epicentre and it was really scary and it felt like a rush of loud wind and a loud rumbling the bed shook and when i stood up to investigate i had to hold onto the wall so i never fell over.

[louiseeboo]

haha i remember this.. i live nearish the centre of it! scariest thing ever to be honest.. i cried :(

[kielstadt]

Really? I'm from Chile in southamerica and here quakes are normal. Just keep cool!!! quakes just move things if you live in a strong house nothing is going to happen. At least in Chile that is the rule.

[louiseeboo]

well thats the first ever earthquake ive felt.. we have them loads but never feel them because they are like really small :/ so yea was scary to me. thought the house was gonna fall over..

[kielstadt]

hahahahaha I can figure that HAHAHA..YES sometimes tremors give us the sensation everything is going down, but I like them..it's strange, but I like watching as thing rattle or shake. hahahaha

[neverasked4this]

someone disturbing plates..?

[swifty17uk]

it was in the feild like 1/4 mile from my house was crazy

[heatmiser86]

I moved from Market Rasen a couple of years ago, this is perhaps the most entertainment in the history of the town. I think that the MOD has something to do with this, I know the Royal Marines do a few exercises out there.

[40496doncaster]

I felt it from Edenthorpe which i about 60 Minuites Away from Centre and it rattled everything!

[badboybirdy08]

[mattyjphillips]

Haha!

I'm from Hull, I felt it totally, my damn floorboards, and windows shook

[nankervis23]

a 4.7 can cause quite alot of damage in the uk because all are bulidings are very old and made of bricks. so when we do have a earthquake even a small one it does some damage, we just arnt used to them here

[Torchwood001]

il felt this - the bed was shakin lol

[terryjohn]

me tooo live 1 59 am i video it too.

TJ

[ukwarriorz]

a 4.7? that wouldnt knock anything over...

[sianshaw14]

jeremy sumpter

[nitrism]

I live in Tokyo. There is a M5-class earthquake every months. Also,Around Japan, it happens every weeks. Also M7-class earthquakes happen every years.(M7-class earthquakes have about 900 times of energy as M4.7-eartuquake.)

Do not worry. This is not armagedon or the end of the world.

[terryjohn]

HI.are they very bad there. i rember jan 95 one.

TJ

[Karlosus]

I think the UK government is testing nuclear weapons underground in areas where there's old mine shafts, such as Yorkshire and Wales. There is a few RAF bases in Lincolnshire which could be used as testing grounds. Think about the areas, the year and the time of day in which they occur in Britain.

[mufc4lyf]

I live in manchester n It was well scary man

[jpaulos75]

You need to see what's going on here in the north of Chile. Shit! That's scary. And the media talking lies about intensities. They say they are low intensity tremors. Tremors were not strange to people. Mate! i've lived all my life in Iquique here in Chile, and I haven't witnessed such scary shakes like the ones we are feeling nowadays. And they are quite a lot. People think that something strange is happening here.

[Sofajb]

Lol at flangelet, you go girl (or boy)!

It was 5.3, i live in market rasen and, yeah, i found it SCARY!

So there.

:)

[azucarmoreno]

I think this was taken a bit over the top. It was hardly an Earthquake.

Big deal some people's chimney stacks crumbled.

[MrAvenged]

who cares

[flangelet]

Musta bin an earthquake while you were typing that dude!

It made ya hit the button twice! Whooa

[zainthepwnerer]

big frigging wup its like 5 on the richter scale and everyone is still crying. Japan get them on 8 +. Get over it , its a mini mini earthquake god sake.

[meroyn]

it might be mini to you but its incredibly rare, many people i know thought armegeddon had come, it was the biggest earthquake in living memory, chimneys might not be important where you are but if the building they support is over 100 years old that's an expensive repair - 10 million pounds had to be spent getting everything back online

[zainthepwnerer]

big frigging wup its like 5 on the richter scale and everyone is still crying. Japan get them on 8 +. Get over it , its a mini mini earthquake god sake.

[SBeggaz]

no one is crying dick we dont get earthquakes so its a big deal not coz its strong coz its an earthquake. its like you getting some balls we got more but ur gonna brag anyway

[flangelet]

The yanks are just jealous!

They'd love to live in so SAFE a country!

It's fun to watch them brag - 'You limeys are l**sers! You should live in an exceedingly dangerous, crime-ridden, beset-by-hurricanes/tornados/e­arthquakes/volcanos/Yellowston­eSuperVolcano country like what we gone and does. Dagnabbit!'

LOL... yeah...right!

[lyn61]

sweet niblets, your right..

[tomsaunders99]

Trying to get some sort of reaction, Ubber13?

Or maybe you're a little bit twisted.

[zenthra]

just another sad american loser

[1lawgrad]

smaller than in california, but this is the land of shakespeare and newton. california has given us what? nick nolte? england is more valuable to the world; they count more.

[TyroneSandalphon]

the WAR ON TERROR is a fraud

9/11 and London 7/7 were false flag opperations designed as a pretext for war and designed to take away our freedom.

Protest March 15th

[Montagraph]

Agree 100%

[TKSnatch]

Everyone is saying how small this earthquake was - But you guys have to understand the UK doesn't get earthquakes so if one does happen, however small, it won't go unnoticed.

[TyroneSandalphon]

ATLAS Experiment, a huge Particle Accelerator in Sweden that will accelerate 2 protons almost to the speed of light and have them collide with one another. The 2000 plus scientists from all over the world who helped create ATLAS are hoping that this collision will create a "Mini Big Bang". Scientists don't know EXACTLY will happen. Some say it will crack the core of the Earth, some say it was open up extremely small black holes

/watch?v=deFp4JtfR4w&

[whisperycat]

It was an Al Kayder earthquake. Warm up the cruise liners, men, we better start bombing the hell out of that dictator, what's he name? Ah yes, Richter Scale. Damn turrists...

[SapientiaAdest]

This is funny!!!

4.7 LMFAO Gimme a break. Try 7.2

5.0 to 6.5 is the range in which one needs to lay down in the street and watch their neighbor's houses roll up and down the block.

[WDWHolidays]

here in the US the crazy christians are screaming it's another sign of the end of world shit. Ugh...do you guy's have these nuts there too?

[thegadgetdude]

yes.

[TKSnatch]

No, we have Muslim one's.

[willyswear]

5.3 is a girly mans earthquake come out to California and experience a real mans earth quake and we will even throw in some super forest fires and mudslides for free.

[SapientiaAdest]

LOL in 89 7.2

I was seven miles from Santa Cruz.

4.7??????? That would be lucky to get news coverage here.

[chrisgy]

Who gives a bat's cock? It was the biggest earthquake since 1984 and was officially marked at 5.2. We just don't get them here but you guys get them all the time, stop trying to act as if you're so special or tough, it just makes you look like a tit.

[1316mph]

your a tit

[1316mph]

your a tit

[willyswear]

Boohoo I'm a tit! What shall I do?

[Tallacus]

here in California 4.7 is nothing

[1316mph]

your a dick

[retsam001]

[cheeseisfab]

I was asleep and dead to the world! Felt nothing!

[lrlbox21]

Hope everything turns out ok.

[Dan19870]

After I felt it I remember thinking that I hope the centre wasn't in the North sea, because of what happened to Asia druing the Tsunami.

[Andprovidingthisgun]

[joanadiasthefirst]

[realshiznit]

[bibliosca]

I sent a cat kissing a bird footage on the net seconds before the earthquake shook me hoose. My wife almost went into labour. a TORCH FELL off our window sill. In the summer I filmed a tornado here outside gainsborough just after the cat/bird while preaching "How shall we escape if we neglect Jesus as our salvation... and the need of the Holy Spirit to save us from sin and the devil. Both events happened seconds after.Check my site "U.K TORNADO" then photo, then associated video and bibliosca

[flangelet]

I kinda enjoyed it.

Not big enough to do real damages but strong enough to let you feel the Earth being restless.

Global Warming may be causing the crust to expand just like the water in the ocean is expanding. Expansion = Pressure = More seismic events!

Wonder where the pressure has moved to? Wonder who will get the NEXT earthquake?

[cheeseisfab]

shut up

[Ginger4lyf2k7]

It was actually 5.2 on the Richter Scale.

[jassi4010709]
