Earthquake simulator

Earthquake simulator at the Asakusa Honjo Bosaikan. As you can see from the small display on the left side of the frame, the intensity of the earthquake was 7.0 and the type of it, a mixture of an horizontal and vertical movement (less than 20% of these type happens in real life.) If you live in or around Tokyo is worth a visit! Very friendly staff and it's free!

we had here in Chile a 8,8 earthquake the last week....during 2 minutes and 30 seconds....I dont wish to pass something like this again...this video looks very benevolent in comparision to the lived here

Siento lo ocurrido en Chile... no hay simulador que te prepare para un terremoto real.

Pero siendo Japon uno de los paises del mundo con mayor numero de terremotos al anio y con la tecnologia que tiene, no es de extraniar que hagan este tipo de "aparatos". Tambien es verdad que es el pais mejor preparado y con mayor infraestructura para soportar terremotos y salir adelante por sus propios medios.

De todas maneras, si toca uno de magnitud 8 en pleno Tokio, esto va a ser un caos total!

@Aitor Y es lo k acaba de pasar aser 3 dias...

@oscarmarlo, solo que seísmo fue de grado 8,9 y no de 7 simulado... tengo familia en Japón y se de primera mano lo que es sufrir un terremoto real. Saldrán de esta como han salido de crisis peores.

The guy in the red shirt would have died if it was a real earthquake. The object would have broken his back :[.

i was in a 5.8 earthquake in Los Angeles.

and i wouldn't like to be in a 7.0

i thought the 5.8 was strong

[landof101dreams]
