Taiwan Earthquake: Moment of Impact 

Daily Dose of Taiwannet

I think it must be because she’s on 2 wheels. She does not feel it as badly as opposed to riding one with 3 or 4. The shaking’s direction might not have hindered her too.

Taiwanese are quite used to earthquake, on the scooter wouldn't be easy to recognize what happened LOL

Depending on the direction you're traveling you can either feel nothing, or feel like you have a flat tire. Living in SoCal. I have too much experience with this 😉

@@avariceseven9443I was riding on a scooter when it happened. I thought it was a flat tire and so did a few riders on the road😂

lul nothing really

it was doggie not kitty!😢🐾❤️

@@leilabakhtiary8837 kitty was on the first clip on the left by the bushes -- 2nd clip was a doggie

@@gordonhall9871 oh really ? poor furbabies. I am more worried about animals than people! 😢💔

@@leilabakhtiary8837 Are you a vegetarian?

@@leilabakhtiary8837What a sinister thing to write.

Absolutely. Before the shake, it new

@@marinda3262 It felt the shake before it was noticeable, it's going to feel vibrations more than we are.

Wasn't that something🤯 you saw how it flew so awkwardly like something disrupted it's whole natural navigation system and everything. It flew into frame and then out of nowhere went straight vertical. I've never seen a bird fly straight up in that pattern before 😮

yes but the birds in the shrub on the left in the first seconds of the clip flew out fast

Birds are the best warning actually

My cats slept through many quakes

Did you assume the gender of the earthquake? Maybe the earthquake was a girl.

All the time bringing the gender my goodness.

你怎麼都知道😮

@@SRJ_tw 因為我都在龜山林口工作 第二個是依畫面資訊搜尋出來的

那土地公廟前幾年才因為柱子被撞斷剛翻新完

第一段那個機車騎士太猛了吧接近震央還可以騎車不停

現在我覺得早餐店都很恐怖

Amen 🙏

uh, it's not very cool for taïwanese people

I was driving in a 6.5 near seattle and I did not even know there was a quake until I got to work and everybody was freaking out.

In fact, it's not able to continue driving, I mean scooter.

There is another video of this quake. There were cars on a freeway when it hit. One of the cars had a 'dash cam'. They started slowing down, and the guy with the cam shows the car in front of him bouncing side to side so hard the tires came of the ground about 6"-8". There is a big tour bus in the video to the left that almost tips over. Freaky!

​@@cantyouhearmeknocking1961 I watched that video too. The tour bus was literally swaying and it felt as if it could fall over if the earthquake went any longer... Very scary

I was driving a car at that time and I didn’t felt anything 😂

Mother nature is not vengeful, it does not have emotions. It just is what it is. If humans are affected, well, that's just part of living on this planet. Learn to live with it.

false. In the case of the Uranus Building collapse, everyone left the building prior to its collapse. If you were to stay in a building while an earthquake is happening, you will get buried and crushed. As a Taiwanese, we are told to evacuate immediately when safe and possible.

你家的？

@@threehairman88 不是

喔

好久沒看到美而美了😂

It fluttered a little at first, then shot straight up like a rocket, like you said. Then the cat freaks out. Crazy!

沒你家窮吧！

@@user-mi9lp5go2i他的意思是可憐

@@user-mi9lp5go2i 英文要菜成這樣喔？

Except not filled with trash

No, but I think a bunch of people did jump at the same time just before the earthquake and that's probably what started it. I thought it was obvious to everyone that earthquakes occur only when a bunch of people jump together at one geographic location at the same time. (lol)

the earthquake usually moves left and right, but this time plus up and down, that’s why people could not stand straight while it’s coming, and it is impossible to jump up and down😂
