Tokyo Earthquake, viewed from the third floor of my apartment in Minami-Asagaya, Suginami-ku Tokyo. This only covers about the last half of the intense stuff, total time lasted over three minutes. The motion started off as usual with side to side jerking but finished with more of a sinking and rising feeling with some side to side motion as well. All in all it was a huge jolt of adrenaline and I'm thankful my friends here are all safe.

*The siren is a useful relic from Japan's history. Used to alert people to air raids or bombing, the city now employs the system to broadcast emergency messages to citizens. It also serves to play the city's song at 5pm every night.

**Media** This video may be linked to or used for broadcasting under the condition that credit be given to "Dolan O'Neill" and that you contact me of your useage.

東京都杉並区成田東5丁目 rough address of where the video was taken.
