As someone who recently started living in Fukushima, the TV alarm is the same sound you will hear at full blast if your town has an earthquake siren. It is really unpleasant but obviously very good to have if you are sleeping. And the first sound you'll get on your phone at full volume regardless of your phone settings (even if it's on silent mode it will override the settings). Honestly very haunting after experiencing the 7.4 earthquake on the 16th of March.
You will know if you live in japan, the moment everyones phones on the densely populated train starts making the first sound at full volume. Everyone just be like "Oh c'mon. Again?"
Funny thing is when I was living there and I had a Japanese contract with docomo whether my phone was on silent or not it didn't matter, everyone's phone would play the alerts at full volume no matter what you do
The sound at 1:00 wasn't an alarm. It was a signal that forced the televisions or radios to turn on for more information about the earthquake be known.
The iPhone alert scared the s*** out of me after today's Chiba's earthquake alert that happened at around 4:18 AM. Moment after closing the alert I felt the earthquake. It was a brief moment but scary as hell.
Haha yeah. I had fallen asleep with my earbuds in. I wake up to a lady in my ear saying "earthquake". Safe to say I had a pretty quick reaction time lmao.
Same here man, it was my first time I Heard that sound, I am new in Tokyo and it scared the scrap out of me and my wife. We have 4 phones and all of them had sirens going and on top of that the earthquake was pretty intense. I wonder if we should take action if the earthquake is above 5 magnitudes.
I am half Japanese and I lived my whole 11 year old life in Tokyo and Miyagi. I remember when I was like 5 or 6, my mum gave me a little kids phone that I could call my parents with in case of an emergency. It also made sounds when there was a tsunami or an earthquake, just like any other devices. One time there was a small earthquake after I got the phone, and it made sounds that scared the crap out of me. I wasn’t really scared of earthquakes because at the time, I lived in Miyagi which Is where the earthquake in 2011 hit and stage 1-4 earthquakes happened pretty often there. I was just terrified of the alarms. I moved to Tokyo at 8. There was an earthquake just yesterday but I didn’t notice it lol (It dosent mean you shouldn’t take earthquakes seriously, my grandma lost her sister because of it and you should probably take action when the earthquake is above stage 5. )
Geez that must been terrifying. Here in my country, earthquakes beyond stage 5 is taken seriously and so far 2 evacuations of school has happened. It's very hard to think that another country has more earthquakes happen than our country but I think it's because Japan is a mountainous country, I don't know much, I'm only taught my own country's geography. Anyways it must been hard for your grandma to lose her sister. I wish you safety my friend :)
I am new to Tokyo, it was my first time I heard this sound yesterday in the morning an earthquake of 5.4 magnitudes scared the hell out of me,, I have 4 phones and all of them had sirens going and on top of that the earthquake was pretty intense. I wonder if we should take any action if the earthquake is above 5 magnitudes and when you are on the 12th floor.
@@yttdsadeceyttdbu alarm televizyonlarda veriliyor genelde (özellikle de japon devlet televizyonu nhk'de). tabi bazı eyaletlerde de kullanılıyor ama genelde daha ciddi sesler de var.
Im an earthquake baby. 5.7 is the maximum magnitude ive experienced and i still nearly fell on my butt. We get lots of little ones but because its a divergent plate boundary and not convergent like in japan we probably wont experience more than 6.2 here

You an ALT? I used to teach JET from 2010-2015 in Fukushima prefecture. Experienced the big one.
@@osakadude yeah I am! I can't imagine experiencing the big one.
@@lexbro95 it was crazy! I'll never forget it. We had aftershocks for almost 6 months. I used to teach in a small town between shirakawa and koriyama.
How the hell is it that Japan and China can both sense incoming earthquakes, and here in California we can’t?

Then you don't go home for about 14 hours sometimes.

thats tsunami warning
@@xnzym. it is not, this is a signal that turns tvs and radios in case of earthquake or tsunami
So they turn on automatically?
@@eddisch2010Yep
it is also used during a civil danger warning (EX: North Korea missile tests)
These sound are truly haunting
No

@@spongeborgtheford4971 Yeah thank god it was a brief one. I'm not used to earthquakes 😅 Hopefully everything is fine from your end.
Yup all was good. I was 50-60km away from the epicentre so I got less than the 5.4 magnitude

Decided to go back to sleep, now I'm late for school. Fuck.
The tsunami alarm is not to alert people, it's also to turn on tvs as well!
As a japanese I’m still scared the hell out of this
It was so freakin scary at the day 01/01 of 2024. (I was in Niigata to ski)

There's also a temporary broadcast Chime that sounds of if the intensity level is 6 or higher
link or more information?
Brings back the memories of earthquakes in the middle of the night 😅🥲💀
My brain during a test:
1:58
2:03 but then you realise you’re japanese, you don’t care and then you fall asleep again
It’s not really a need to worry as long as you follow the protocol. When there’s a tsunami, that’s something to worry about if you are near the coast.
I’ve always heard the second one in my house, it was horrible, I used to cry so much bcuz of it
Do all houses have that alarm?
@@Chromebook19 of course. if not some people wouldnt know until its too late
I remeber when i heard the mobile alarm
0:31 "Kids! Get into the Ice Cream truck so we can hide from the earthquake!"
sweet u made my family wake up
Are there any Japanese EAS alarms for things other than earthquakes? Do any exist at all?
I think so, the alerts are very undesirable and congratulations they are the perfect choices 😮😮😮
