Loma Prieta Earthquake, ca. 1989 - National Archives and Records Administration - ARC Identifier 951729 / Local Identifier 311-NETC-39 - Department of Homeland Security. Federal Emergency Management Agency. National Emergency Training Center. (03/2003 - ). This video recording documents scenes of the October 17, 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake and its aftermath. The largest to hit the San Francisco area since 1906 and registering a 7.1 magnitude, the Loma Prieta Earthquake's effects are shown during the Candlestick Park World Series game, in stores, and on the street. Much of the footage is devoted to the California Highway Patrol's response to, and findings of, the seismic shaking on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge and the Cypress Street Viaduct, two of the most severely hit structures in the area. Scenes show difficult rescue attempts and earthquake victim evacuations.

Loma Prieta Earthquake is more terrifying than any pre-meditated act of terrorism. Nobody is exempt from the wrath of mother nature.

Yikes!! I was in 6th grade, watching the Wirld Series game. In hindsight, the Cypress structure was not the type of road that should have been built in California of all places. That was an improper structure for that state/region. Thinking about those people who were crushed makes me very sad.

Human beings are amazing when they are given purpose and meaning, like opportunity to help people who are truly in need. It's inspiring what we are all capable of when normal life is shown to be an ultimately temporary and somewhat arbitrary set of conditions and shit really hits the fan. Reminds me of 9/11...there is hope for us all.
