Stand in the middle of the yard while recording you standing there so we can all see a video of you falling right into the ground as the earthquake opens a hole under your feet.

How will i upload it?

Magnitude?

It's just one earthquake, ignore it.

[Daedalus]

you live in california, then?
yeah, my news feed is ablaze with people still loving talking about it

Apparently people are so hyped up over a 4.4 magnitude earthquake that they are seriously compelled to tell everybody they know that it just happened.

Also, why would you worry about an earthquake after it happened? It's not like a tub where the shockwave will hit the edge and come back and hit you a second time, if you're unhurt then goody go on with life.


On topic: I can't wait for the "big one" that's supposedly coming within the next 20 years. I can't wait to see half of LA fall on its side and stuff. Omg. It's like Cloverfield IRL.

The news is turned on by your mom...
Heheh.

No but seriously, you will be fine, just follow the instructions of what to do when an earthquake hits and you are going to be okay.

Blockheads have been surviving a lot of stuff for a loong time.

It's actually very common for there to be "aftershocks" which can easily do as much damage overall as the first shock. It's also an uncommon event. My town has had flooding and a tornado and we still talk about those.

I'm aware that aftershocks happen, but they are very rarely more powerful than the actual earthquake, and since this earthquake was so weak (the OP mentions 40 mins away, presumably driving, in CA an average highway speed is probably 70mph, so 47 miles away and he wasn't even positive it was an earthquake, this is a definite sign of a weak earthquake) the possibility of a magnitude earthquake that could actually cause damage to his area is ridiculously small. I'd calculate it for you but it's 3:45AM here and I am sleepy.
