Los Angeles Earthquake July 29 2008

[kimthefamedactress]

I was upstairs in my house in Chino Hills when it happened. The house just started swaying side to side and I thought it was about to fall over! Scary. I just stood there frozen which is exactly what NOT to do in an earthquake lol.

[HatersHater1000]

i remember that shit. lasted like, a couple of seconds

[YoshiLuva11]

It Was My Birthday That Day



[yoitsbabyvee]

lol i was on my bed playing my nintendo ds! my stomach and the bed started swaying back and forth, and i thought a huge ass truck was driving down my driveway haha

[awesomenoob6281]

Damnit!!! i was watching spongebob in the kitchen eating my favorite cerial cinimon toast crunch when it happened, and the worst part! i spiled my ceriel

[steve95988]

i cant wait for the big one to finally wipe southern ca off the map, i hate that flippin place, over crowding and too many high paid people for doing nothing but being fake! God will bring judgement soon! amen! Allah akbar!!

[ERAUPRCWA]

hmm, at the exact same time that the Earthquake started was the exact same time I took off from LAX going to Dallas. I actually have a video of my takeoff from LA (though you can't see the Earthquake... but it was happening underneath me)

[VoodooPolitico]

Ive lived through DOZENS of earthquakes here in LA County. But I cant remember this one happening. Four people in the house with me cant remember this one either. Slow news day with whatever station this is in the video acting as if its the end of the world?

[Live2playu]

@VoodooPolitico Same, We get an earthquake, atleast once a year..

[RubysTUTORials2]

When it happened, i was watching tv At my cousins house they thought it was me and someone else shaking the doors or the neighbors and they noticed that it was an earthquake xD

[longbeachlt]

the earthquake today at 8:39 5.0 was kinda strong and it only lasted about 10 sec, 5-17-09

[paulfbest]

as the scientists say, there will occur a series of moderate/light quakes before *The Big One* hits,,,so everyone in cali will have ample warning to get out,,the big one will not come as a *SURPRISE, I"M HERE*...just like New Orleans had Betsy in 1969, water to our doorsteps, , Katrina put 12 ft in my home,,,the next *Katrina* will hit all sections of greater NO.

cali has lots of bad energy all over the state, pressure building

*The Big One* decades off, first the series of moderate quakes.

[ShannonQT85]

we had 4 today in yorba linda...in this order: a 3.8, 4.0, 3.0, 2.5.....hoping that doesnt mean something bigger is coming, but its definitely unusual

[paulfbest]

well of course it means something

the fault under S Cali is different from the one in south asia

..there are faults all over earth there will be a major shift in Tennessee/Illinois one day.(google that one)

Italy will havea *BIG ONE* one day. Rome /The vatican will be TOTALLY destroyed. Bible speaks of that one.

Italy has a a *BIG ONE* every 100+ yrs..Guatemala has a *BIG ONE* every 50 yrs, they are due 2025+/-

S Cali will have *The Big One*.

When?

watch the animals they speak

[imaeja]

Yahh! it was so scary i was taking a nap on the first one :O

[DreamImagineCreate]

Oh thats so cool i live in yorbalinda too it was so wierd all the earthquakes where center under the new yorbalinda high school :( ........ thats only like two miles away from my house.....the wierdest thing about it all was it ws only felt in yorbalinda no where eles

[BRONXtv]

[RandomxGirl08]

[lamuthafuckers]

(freak out more than peple from weat cost)

pray 2 god it never happens over there

im wooryed itle be stronger here

but at leat most of our buildins,houses,and locals are prepared

[bamdrea]

I don't believe there are fault lines in the east coast.

[link13j]

i know

but anyhting culd happen

[KRZR24rat]

na but a 10.0 would reach them

[JehovahSaveUs]

actually the east coast and mid west do have fault lines they are not as active as on the west coast. but the missisippi ( is that how u spell it ) anyways had the flow changed due to a powerful quake hundreds of years ago. so yes the east and mid west are prone to quakes.

[hooks4e]

dammm it was stong

[AngelBuffyrock22]

i live pretty near chino and i felt it really well

jumped under a table with my lunch

[hardcorefilmsonly]

I was in It and it wasnt even big. I felt it and It just felt like I was on a boat and the street lights were shaking. I was standing outside a car wash.

[icyfire48]

[crankdat209]

[hop208]

I couldn't imagine if something like this happened on the east coast. People would be scared to death especially with all the old masonary building which would crumble with a little nudge.

[actmonkey21]

damn i was 60-70 miles away and i still felt it pretty hard

[toyotatrueno9]

lOl i was in school and when i went up to show my teacher my work i thought a truck dropped somthing but it was a earthquake it was so cool i didn't even get under the table my teacher was freaked out LOOl

What a fucking redneck!

[ERAUPRCWA]

lol, I was just at LAX my flight took off at 11:41AM that day, I didn't find out about the earthquake until I got to DFW. I just barely missed it, that's some funny shit!

[laughingperson5]

HAHA

totally i was home and freaked out

it was the first earthquake i was awake with

[qu4zu000]

lol i loved this earthquake judge judy almost crapped her pants

[smizez]

hahaha i know i was laughing so hard!

[Wopperwane123321]

Its called the L.A. quake because L.A. is the closest major city

[CopperV]

why are people saying L.A. earthquake?? the epicenter was in chino hills.

[jtt426]

and chino hills is located within the greater LA

[lfcsr123]

Well, I think it should be called the Judge Judy quake lol

[Titan124]

what a gay fucking quake.

[zZzDeathNotezZz]

omg my friend on runescape lives there and he told me about it lol

[OshareStrife]

Your friend on Runescape told you that?

You live in Alabama or something?

xD

[imperio50]

i was there

[ultima03]

vigilance combats fear

[adr2001us]

save the soap!

[ananiasacts]

The geologists said it was most likely due to recent rash of same sex marriages in the area.

[BeondaPale]

Well, they did, but there's always going to be people who can't or won't get out of the way.

I mean no offense either

[AJxn3]

Everybody rushed over there to find the ONE building that sustained a bit of damage in that area... That old building wouldn't even survive a heavy rain storm.

[FreeMarketEdu]

I was born and raised in la and everyone makes a big deal about earthquakes. The ground shakes, big whoop; now a TORNADO!!!, that's some scary shit, or a HURRICAINE!!!, I'd piss my pants for sure. BRING IT ON NATURE, I've got you by the cojones.

[jbrocks1550]

so what r u saying u just sit dowm while and earthquake like nothing is going on?

it is a "big woop" an earthquake the bigger it is the more dangerous it gates!its killed people!!and ur saying every1 makes a big deal?CUZ IT IS A BIG DEAL FOR UR INFO!

[FreeMarketEdu]

Lost my comment. Anywho, yeah, that's what I'm saying. Earthquakes are boring. We all just look at each other like, "whoa, hope it's not the "big one", but no one starts freaking out. The news always picks out the dramatic people on camera when an earthquake happens. Earthquakes are nature's way of saying, "I could if I wanted to bitch, but I won't, cause I'm lazy". Very few earthquakes cause death like the northridge one or the SF one in the 90's. Now, TORNADOS!!. That's some scary shit!

[FreeMarketEdu]

Keep in mind, I'm talking about earthquakes in cali and everywhere else in America. I'm not talking about the one's in China or India or other countries. The buildings there are not as safe as the one's here, so there's a lot of deaths and damage. Hope I didn't offend anyone.

[eblackmouth]

do these kids not have mops? i mean come on, i would be pissed if I saw my staff opening up expensive paper towels!

[xxcandy23xx]

whoa i was on my bed and it started skaing. it was incredibly scary.

[reneesluse]

Vinnyswebsite on real time quake up dates will blow your mind! I look in every day and was really amazed , in our America, the state that shakes the most is aLASKA.. At least # 3 times a day. Others on the hit list beside cALIFORNIA was iLLINOIS,oREGON,wASHINGTON, oHIO,nEVADA,iDAHO,uTAU etc. I did feel yesterdays quake a bit, but it really bothered my cat & we are all the way down the coast in the suburb of La Mesa, just out side San Diego.

[mytoofs]

Bleh, the 'los angeles earthquake' headline is lame. The earthquake didn't even occur in Los Angeles COUNTY. It happened between Orange County and Riverside. It should at least say 'sounthern california earthquake'

[mytoofs]

oh and just to be clear... I'm talking about all the tv news headlines...not this you tube one :)

[FreeMarketEdu]

Smack yourself sir. I live in the SF valley and was taking a shower at the time (no comments you sickos), and I almost fell because of it. I now have a crack above my window on the wall. So, Bleh to you my good man, Bleh to you.

[BeondaPale]

I live in New Orleans and even though I lost everything in Katrina, I'd STILL rather live in a place with hurricanes than a place with earthquakes.

At least you can see a hurricane coming

[dslif90]

dude earthquakes rnt that bad. iv been thru so many and they rly arnt as scary as they are potrayd on the news.

[BeondaPale]

Most hurricanes aren't that bad either -- in fact they can be a lot of fun if there a category 1 (75 - 95 MPH winds). I've been to a few hurricane parties in my time. For some reason, girls get all cozy at those things :)

Like earthquakes, it's the BAD ones you should be scared of. And California hasn't seen one of those for a century.

[Dook6]

What are you talking about people die in quakes tell that to people who died in Northridge and Loma Prieta Quakes.

[dslif90]

k man calm down. ya they can be i know firsthand they can. but they rnt as bad as the media potrays them. chill out

[nil1230]

oh fuck...it was only a 5!

[harlan1988]

beware the big ones coming ,dont let your guard down!

[Hardbass11]

my ass..

[alrcfr]

it was awesome!

[pc85747]

im glad i live in AZ, but Californa is cool.

[voxpopuli071]

???? I don't get it.Why some losers keep doing the same shit over and over? Any way,I think thats why they call them losers XD...We survived,thats what matters!

[Flowerpower2U]

Maybe you'll luck out and be at the next epicenter so we won't have to read your garbage anymore. The only LOSER here is you with your "wonderful remarks" *sarcasm*

I'm not surprised you don't get it--you're a MORON! Hahaha...Thanks for the laugh :D

[reneesluse]

So powerfull was that quake,that new lakes were formed & it CHANGED THE COURSE OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER!!!! Church bells rang in Boston. Sidwalks cracked in D.C. & chimmeys fell in Maine... YIKES C. R. V. in La Mesa, California

[TexasLonghorn07]

wtf are you talking about? It was a 5.4

[reneesluse]

The largest American earth quake was in Alaska in 1964, a 9.2 !!! So y'all who keep calling us us fools for living in our state of California, don't get too complacent... The 2nd. largest quake in the U.S.of A. wasn't in California either. Nope, that honor goes to the state now called Missouri in 1812, a 8.0!!!

[BeondaPale]

Los Angeles would be GONE after a 9.2

[setyouback]

hahaha 9.2? that's way too high a 8.2 maybe. i think it does not matter although i live in la.

[PANICattackk]

i was at summer school when it happend. and like everyone ran underneath the desk and or teacher was freaking out haha

[hiphopisntacrime]

some unreinforced masonry walls fell over in pomona

[funkluver888]

that earthquake scared the shit outta me and my frnds that we flew out the porch when it was happening... LMAO...

[adriandwayneacuna]

That happen yesterday here near chino hills.

[pm2master]

me either i live in little rock

[MartinezPaisa]

imagine all the shit u could jack at the stores!@!!! even like 2 hours after it happend u could still get away wit it!@!!!

ppl get distracted easily !~~

i wish i woulda been at walmart i woulda jack anything~!!!

[tvonutube]

Come on bro,.. life should be about peace,... if your mom or dad was running the store, would you want it to be "jacked"?

[woodenigloo8]

Heck, my best friend and I went to Disneyland after the earthquake ;-)

[cartmansos3xy]

i have footage of this earthquakeee

[pm2master]

i herd it was a 5.8

[zobajoe]

Hope this earthquake wasn't some sort of publicity stunt set up by Warner Brothers just to make us go watch Batman "Dark Knight" all over again. I hated that movie.

[superfundeathhammer]

that makes no sense at all.

[tvonutube]

I'd have to say (because nobody got hurt), that IT WAS FUN!!!,.. I was just lying in bed watching the news and everything started shaking for 30 seconds! First thing I started thinking was, "But the weather is cool,.. its suppost to happen on hot days",... but it was still fun. My cat looks down at me from his castle tower and he's got this funny look on his face like what the hells goin on?! lolol

[sharinganVV99]

lol i was in iit to except i almost fell !

[AlyIsAmazing]

lol I know what you mean. I was taking a hot bath and then the shampoo and soap fell in. I yelled "Oh Shit!" It was funny. But the scary thing is that they say that 2 stronger quackes are suppose to come in the near future...

[istlm]

See my YouTube channel and decide whether this earthquake was predicted or not. Thanks.

[lydiap410]

7/29/08: the day i went shopping n there was a freakin' earthquake. I was undress in the fitting room & i stormed out lol (luckily there were no males just 6 girls)

[tvonutube]

If you're over 20,.. I wish I was there! lol

[BDOUG23]

Yeah right......

[sometimesoonfan]

you guys have no idea what an earthquake is......1964 Alaska.

9.2 which lasted for 4 minutes. Largest in US history. Now THAT is crazy.

[Flowerpower2U]

Voxpop: What the hell is your problem? Just 'cause people don't express themselves the way you want them to doesn't give you free reign to judge people. Get off your high horse, JERK!

[sometimesoonfan]

was just sharing information. As Mr. Freeze would say...."CHILL OUT!"

[voxpopuli071]

O....K????

[Flowerpower2U]

"Profanity is the sign of a weak mind" - Thanks for being the living proof, Vox. :P

Don't kid yourself, you're anything but ORIGINAL...

[voxpopuli071]

OMFG,fuck off bitch.I forgot about you already.Just let it go....Damn,you need to get a fucking life...I'm not paying attention at your sorry ass comments any more fuck face.Have a nice life xD !!!!!!

[Flowerpower2U]

Your cussing doesn't phase me, dude. Jerks who resort to this are a dime-a-dozen. What makes you so upset? It could equally be said that you need to get a f***ing life, etc. and you do keep paying attention to me, so you've already contradicted yourself! :D

You're a hypocrite nevertheless, and you ARE one of US, the masses, so get used to it before we commit you to Cabrillo...

[voxpopuli071]

It does phase you,'cause you keep replying bitch....BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA XD !!!!..LMAO for real.

[TortieTude2008]

Vox: Asshole :P

[voxpopuli071]

Bwahahahahahaha,stop sweating some one elses heat bitch.Don't like it fuck off XD!!!!

[ViperRob42]

Yea, I felt it, im glad nothing fell on me haha, im use to them, my least fav was once when I was shaving there was a quake, no good... damn, id be scared if it happened in the shower
