Filmed within central Myanmar – March 28, 2025 (M7.9 Myanmar Earthquake)
This is what reminds you: we are bugs on this planet.
Thought I was going to see a crack appear on the driveway, that’s what I was watching originally. Then it happened and I was like “What? The driveway stood still and the rest of the Earth just lurched forward?” Holy shitballs
I had to ask myself if I just saw the entire right half of the screen shift down and when it switched to 2x speed I was shocked that it did.
“Sorry, your house is now overstepping property lines. You must now destroy it and rebuild it 6 feet to the right”
I wonder how this actually works. Because technically property lines shifted too. And in many places, official property lines are still demarked with some sort of marker on the ground, not by GPS.
That is equal parts terrifying and cool as fuck!
Holy shit, that’s so surreal! The lack of destruction is unsettling to me; to see this much mass being shifted around so quickly, I would expect to see huge plumes of dust and debris or something. But this was… almost gentle. Like a developer just highlighted a group of assets and dragged them all 20 feet to the side.
Did you see the power pole tower thing on the right? No dust, but there’s much more damage than what we can see.
I wonder if youd feel yanked on either side of it. Like one side is clearly going to feel as though the ground moved under them, but i wonder if it felt that way on both sides? Were they both moving relative to stationary earth or did only one of them move?
My understanding from reading Wikipedia is that both sides are moving opposite against each other, so from the observation side, it looks much faster than it would look if observed directly above.
