    Yeah, Kiwi here, we have a shit tonne of earthquakes here Jim, the New Zealand is bang on the Pacific Ring of Fire. However, Christchurch is on the other side of the of the South Island rangers from the tectonic plate and was not known to be on a fault line until a large - non deadly - earthquake hit the city about 4 months before the deadly one. Because there was no knowledge of that fault there was no earthquake legislation in the building code and also a lot of historical brick buildings. The February earthquake was shallow and liquefied the earth, giving those old brick buildings no solid earth to rest on and the bricks had no flexibility. Christchurch was seriously unprepared, but everywhere I have lived in the North Island has had strict building codes for decades regarding earthquakes. If I remember geology from high school correctly (25 years ago!) I think NZ was even a major testing ground for earthquake resistant building technologies? Some incredible life saving building practices were engineered here. It was just so sad - and somewhat ironic - these technologies were never building practice before Christchurch was decimated.... can someone PLEASE remind me of the name of that bloody dog! I have been trying to remember it for many shows now and it has got to the point of distraction from what people are saying on the show! Such a cutie, such a cuddler, I'm just pissed I can't remember his name!

    If you haven’t seen it, watch the clip from the stadium when all the lights go out during the game. It was really spooky. During the big one in SF, I was little and at a friends and sleeping on top of the bunk bed and her dad ran in to make sure I didn’t fall out. All I remember in the morning was being excited to eat Cookie Crisp, everything being sorta askew and the news blaring. The complex next to us was collapsed and I was too young to understand. We had a minor one a few years back and streets opened up. There’s weird things too you gotta be careful of, like not hanging anything above your bed unless it a marshmallow essentially, and strapping boOkshelves and stuff to the wall. Adding: I do know there’s research showing birbs react beforehand with natural disasters like quakes or tsunamis and will subvert their flight path or take off. My cat definitely reacts and starts acting funny beforehand or with major changes in barometric pressure. Also, there’s video of skyscrapers in Japan and also China and you can see them breathing. It looks terrifying, but is purposeful to withstand high winds.

    I would respectfully disagree with you about NZs readiness for earthquakes. We are on the ring of fire and had earthquake drills growing up constantly. We also have a strong building code designed to protect life in earthquakes. There was only large-scale loss of life in 2 buildings and one of those it was later discovered was designed by an architect who faked their qualification and wasn't built to standard.

    Just fyi; the Loma Prieta quake was wide ranging and one of the biggest I’ve ever been through as a Californian. The cars that were parked in the gravel and dirt area outside of my home were bouncing crazily and the trees looked like they were dancing. Don’t stand next to a vehicle during an earthquake!

    It was really scary! I was young, but that day is cemented in my mind much like 9. 11 was. I even remover eating Cookie Crisp which was a treat because I wasn’t allowed to have it normally. The house was askew and I knew the energy eas weird, but I didn’t know exactly what happened. The news was blaring, and all the adults were sorta pacing. My friends dad ran to my room as I was sleeping on the top bunk, bless his heart. The complex next door was collapsed and I asked about it but the adults didn’t really explain it to me. Not sure if you ever saw the footage from the game. Still gives me chills seeing it.

    I honestly enjoyed earthquakes in Los Angeles and San Diego the building's I rented were build up to code. One time it started rocking I went out on the balcony and watched the wave's go through the sky scraper. Still sucks that humans have to die by cheap as third world building's. Presidents like Erdogan should invest in Inverstructur and not build airports, bridges, and road's.
