The incredible stability the buildings have! Seriously impressed about how they built Taiwan
I think taiwan is very poor country but they have many many tall buildings
@myrene123 not China building
@@myrene123 Don't lie, it's the Taiwanese who built the solid house, not the crappy house from China
@@말라유 Taiwan’s GDP per capita was ranked 14th in the world, not poor at all.
The original comment is a bot.
Impressed by the news reposter who kept reporting while the office and screens were rocking around her.
Dude in the wave pool loving life😂
He had a wave machine for a moment 😂
but I'm sure he is peeing in the pool
@@말라유 Or worse.
Agreed!
Ya he’s probably drunk.
Taiwan buildings are well granded? 7.7 magnitude earthquake??? Buildings still standing?? Wow!!! I pray everyone survives😢.
It actually 7.2
@@austinkuo2239 Does that make it any better?? 😢😒
Guy in pool look like he had fun
That's not fun. When encountering an earthquake, it shakes slightly at first, and then accelerates in less than 2 seconds. The guy must have been swimming when there was a big earthquake and it was difficult to walk, so he stayed there.
People seem pretty chill.
All those threats about China invading Taiwan and now this, they are just living in the moment
Well done Construction companies! Strong buildings
Well done civil enforcement, no construction company builds well out of choice.
Built in Taiwan really is understatement.
🤣🤣
Japanese design
Made... in Taiwan.
If built in China it will collapse even without earthquake
Wow...their infrastructure is incredible
It's not the infrastructure It's GOD. I hope things wouldn't get any worse but the world is getting closer and closer to end times. Wish everyone well take heed and God bless
@@missg5385 no, it was them. Stop relating this to your god.
@koro-cookie-pookie I always respect others opinion so I will leave it there but, isn't my God yours and every one else on earth also?
@@missg5385 No. Its not. Not everyone is religious. And if God was real, wouldn't he have prevented this from happening?
@koro-cookie-pookie I got my answer stay safe 🙏
I can not believe that building is still in one piece, I bet if the population of Türkiye see this they will be wondering what happened to there buildings when they had there last earthquake .
I don't think I saw anyone panic! The news faster just carried on talking while balancing 😆 Taiwan is a special place for sure!
This is absolutely horrific. Sending love, prayers, and condolences to Taiwan and the families who lost their loved ones . I'm absolutely impressed by the infrastructure overall though... I hope all goes well, prayers from Pakistan 🇵🇰
The swaying swimming pool should be nice as a regular tourist attraction!❤
Yeah, those swimming pool shots always deliver.
That was so cool. If that water was warm and it wasn’t the end of the world I would definitely try that. Looked so fun. Those crooked buildings remind me of Gatlinburg Tennessee. They have a building built to look upside down.
Also those rocking vehicles the bus and being on scooters on a bridge would be very unsettling.
You’d have to question of the integrity of everything after that.
Notice. No looting.
Wishing everyone in Taiwan peace, where I visited in 2019, it's truly beautiful. Cầu chúc cho mọi người Taiwan được bình an, nơi tôi từng ghé thăm năm 2019, thật đẹp.
What amazes me is how calm the people were. Sending prayers and love ❤️
The structures😢are strong enough
If this was in China half the city would be rubble. Taiwan is nearby, so why is it so much more advanced? Impressive.
Because it's democracy ☝️
Both democracy and Japanese influence
They say they have earthquakes a lot because they are right on a fault line. They know this thus the buildings are designed to take it.
Because they reguarily get earthquakes, so they have been forced to make their buildings better
The ones that fell I assume were in lower income areas and possibly had soft story issues. To my understanding, knowledge about how to build buildings to withstand earthquakes has greatly advanced and certain building styles have been identified as very vulnerable. I live in SF, and we're similarly earthquake prone, and yet we had a bunch of buildings that were soft stories, and the government basically forced owners to retrofit for public safety sake iirc. Newer buildings need to be earthquake resitent (I cannot explain how millennium tower got approved...)
Vs In areas with less earthquakes, they have had less a need. Buildings get built for the needs of the areas. Like, our smaller buildings are mostly wood construction here due to cheap wood, but also harder to make em earthquake proof. Vs, in parts of Europe (Germany and England?), it's a lot of stone/brick, as that's what works for their areas and they don't tend to have earthquakes.
What is the name of that city in China?
How terrifying. My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Taiwan.
Amazing people, amazing country.
Wow ,hope everyone's ok
Praying for all people in Taiwan. ❤😢 love from Australia ❤🇦🇺
Prayers and thoughts go out to the people of Taiwan and their families
pray for taiwan
Praying does nothing
@@Wesley-Stokey To be fair, it does make some people feel better.
But of course it does not affect the earth.
@@Wesley-Stokeyshut up I’m from taiwan
Amen and Amen
Love Taiwan. One of the many few countries on this planet that are amazing
Taiwan engineers are godly
Scary. Hope there are not too many casualties.
The female newcaster who kept on reporting during the quake is tougher than a lot of men. Hats off to her.
Im tough too 😭
And building still stands.
Apart from that 1.

But note, these buildings are 50 years old and though the ground level collapsed and the building is on a lean, the buildings stay intact meaning most people survive and can still get out. Still impressive, the main thing to avoid is buildings collapsing in on themselves, that's when lots of people die or get trapped.
That red building, I wonder if it was not retrofitted for earthquakes. I imagine modern buildings have strict building codes to prevent such a collapse. Regardless, that magnitude is quite severe, and to think only eight people died is pretty remarkable. I am sorry to those impacted by this severe earthquake.
Let's pray for Taiwan. Lord please protect your people.
AMEN GOD is coming
Fallen angels of apocalypse
Kingdom of pharaohs
The earth planet universe is dead extinction
Amen
Do we pray to Buddha or ?
How does that work? I mean how / why should he protect people from himself?
@@seeharvester I think Buddha is in order, since Tawian is predominantly Buddhist/Taoist. 🤔
Taiwan has hundreds of earthquakes a year. I experienced a very mild one years ago. Scary stuff.
1:50 amazed it's all in 1 piece (mostly). Must have felt strange to be in that building when it happened.
Hope people are ok and not many lost there lives
Wow ty for explaining that... Its amazing how calm everyone is! Just watching this I cringed... Hope everyones alright
China sent 30 fighter jets to Taiwan just after the incident, not for helping ofcourse
Propaganda?
What a sweet neighbor huh
@@eloisekimi3978😂 I like this sarcasm.
Prayers for the people 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
They’ll rebuild it all back to normal in a week….
the man in the pool was chillz
Prayers for everyone in Taiwan. 🙏 may God bless those affected
Those affected are already dead, missing, homeless...how is 'god's blessing' going to help them?
@@verko5292 every one needs God’s blessing. Everyone can pray for His Grace. Bless their lives on earth and their souls in heaven.
感謝世界各國對台灣的關心
感謝大家
I'm 52, have lived in California more than half my life. I've felt exactly 1 earthquake.. the 7.5 Loma Prieta 1989 quake that, among other things, knocked down part of the bay bridge. I cannot imagine becoming accustom to such a thing.
Being stuck on a highway would be scary. In films, they always come crashing down. There was a quake in Japan a day or two before. Tied together? Wonder how people got out of the tilted building. Again, so scary.
I hope all are ok 💝🇬🇧
What amazed me most is how they just go about there business 😂😂😂😂 nerves of steal
steel*
How on earth can one get used to this
This is very eye-opening. I wish them a safe recovery.
The dude in the pool gets me every time
Yes record instead of going under something and taking cover.
That something can easily collaps and cover forever, genius.
The Camera man always survives. Big brain move there.
@inisipisTV lol fr, thanks for the idea. I'll do that next time.
I feel silly for panicking at our little 4.8 in NYC last week. This looks serious! Praying for all involved. 🙏🏾💜
God of mercy, have mercy on your people. That is so serious
Why would god have mercy? Wasn't he who caused this (and all other) earthquake in the first place?
Very sad. 😢
Praying from India for all the people affected by the quake.
I'm surprised how calm the people were 👍👍
That news reporter is definitely dedicated
That dude in the pool was straight vibing
Oh my God 😮😮😮
That lady kept reporting and hanging on! I would have taken cover. I don't want to be in a swaying building.
The pool! So amazing!
The guy in the pool was just vibing
Prayer
*these leaning buildings put the Leaning Tower of Pisa to shame.*
guy in pool really enjoyed
They have monthly earthquakes and live on a fault line?? It may be colder but I'm glad I live on the good ol' Northern Canadian Shield!
Imagine the amount of energy those earthquakes have to shake everything, including mountains, it's insane. 😳
Якісно зроблені будинки, стоять раком і не розвалюються!
Psalm 104:32
“He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth the hills, and they smoke.”
Ohhhh my God this is so scary im praying for everyone 😮😢❤
I can’t imagine how scary this would be. I hope everyone recovers as well as they can so they can move in with life. It’s terrifying to watch so I can’t fathom how scary it would be to actually be there. ❤
Earthquakes are one of mother nature's worst furies, yet the man in the pool is living it up.
Prayers prayers
What would they do? ...Make god want to change his plans for us?
In the last days perilous times i pray for mercy.let us be on our alert.
¿El que estaba en la piscina debió salir o está bien que se haya quedado allí durante el movimiento?
Guy in the pool like "wheeeeee!"
That news girl was ping ping pinging and had no idea what she was saying.😂
What's it like living in a country where buildings collapse without controlled demolition?
OMG😢
Please Lord keep them safe
How
Guessing the fallen buildings had soft stories issues -- looks to be buildings with ground floor stores, likely didn't build enough support to parts of them . There's been a lot of retrofitting here in San Francisco to fix soft stories as they're very vulnerable in this big type of quakes. IIRC the city government went around and identified vulnerable buildings and basically forced them to upgrade for public safety and occupants sake -- we're gonna get another big quake eventually where we are, and those buildings would likely have fallen.
Why is he in a swimming pool while theirs a earth quake going on
Amazing scenes, natures power.
Meanwhile, here in NJ no one has stopped talking about a 4.8 for days. Condolences to the ppl of Taiwan.
Wow,crazy
Как же страшно....
Построено хорошо, здания накренились, но не разрушились!
Ain’t it something something big has to remind us we are not alone on this planet.
Fracking?
Great engineered buildings 💕👍
Why do people need a text to tell them they’re in an earthquake? What caused them to malfunction? Am I missing something?
A text to tell them an earthquake is coming. Then people have some time to run for cover. Just like when the tsunami hit Japan in 2011, some regions near the coast got a warning and just enough time to get to higher ground before it hit. It's important.
Who left the wave gun on in Antarctica? 😅
Its good to see some disasters that are not man-made...

И ни одной трещине в стене дома. Турецкие дома при таком качании разрушились бы сразу
Perante tudo isto nós não somos nada,apenas observamos o medo total da Natureza 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Lord have mercy...😢
Any building can become "wonky" at 7.7
3 body problems… how can one buys real estate in Taiwan… never live in a place with tornado or earthquake … it is just unsettling
你離開地球吧！😂
@@viewflyhsu6776 i see your faculty is subpar. Northern Europe been awesome for many centuries. why u people love to visit our old old building and structures
@@ometofu 你們只剩下古老的建築?
你要不要來參觀我們的台北101?
你要不要來參觀我們的台積電?

What is the news anchor saying? In the beginning of the video clip? She seems clam. I'm assuming she tell her viewers to remain clam as well?
Yes
I wonder what that was falling from the building at 0:38?
Pool water pours from the top floor..
Swimming pool
guy in the pool: weeeeeeeeee :)
