So who else felt that, 12.15am and it was going for a couple of minutes, been a while since I felt one like that.

Must of been this one:

24-OCT-2009 11:29:49 -14.13 -174.39 4.9 10.0 SAMOA ISLANDS REGION

Yeah, haha, was awesome seeing my water bottle shake for a minute or two...

was freaky!

Oh yer.
Nothing normally wakes me, but that did.

strongest we've had for a while...

wonder if it's the start of the end of the world

more info for everyone, http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recent.../pt09297000.php

Tsunamis, red dust storms, earth quakes.....

Indonesia quake, 7.3 93 miles deep.

Tsunami warning.

i thought greg was doin it until the fan blade hit the roof and the picture fell off the wall

Rocking your world was he?

Prayers for no more Tidal Waves

There is a Tsunami warning at the moment.

had some crazy euro bloke at rc racing 3 weeks ago telling me all the shit was being caused by planet alignment and blah blah blah.
he reckoned that it was going to keep happening for a few more weeks and then settle down. maybe he was onto something.... maybe it was something he was on

Well news saying they probably won't get a Tsunami due to how deep the quake was.

Who knows, David Gemmel books, some of his novels based around how the world has fallen on it's axis, where there was land, it's now under water, where there was water, now desert.

I thought there was no tsunami warning. Reuben posted a link on facebook to some warning centre that had a update saying there was no current threat because it was too deep.

grab ya surf board, let's go paddle out and wait..

Yeah, apparently, said if it was like 30k's deep then would be risk of Tsunami.

Sounds like a plan, or be like the guy that they found wandering around the jetty when there was a cyclone warning on.

I like this link, just shows how pissed off the earth is with all the tremors there are.

Greg must have been rockin everyone's world lol

Australia is on a plate though isn't it?? Highly unlikely to ever be effected by a tsunami?

Uh oh........

yes australia has its own plate, we also have Indonesia and Timor to protects us.

pretty sure darwin is on a fault line.






wonder how much sway evolution had going on

close enough to darwin

was chillin at tha convention center with a friend n tha noise comming from the roof was fucking extreme!

pitty the kent didn't fall down

Are plate lines and fault lines different? Tennant creek has a few tremors and that is was inland.

No they are the same.. however there are a number of different types..depending on whether one plate is sliding under another or against it..... Its not unusual for tremors to be felt a long way away from the epicentre. Have a look at how far away newcastle is from the pacific rim...they got one hell of a tremor around there in about 88 i think

didnt feel shit, was awake too. maybe our house is immuned to earth shake lol.

Perhaps it was reinforced to hold your weight?

After shock from him hitting the wall at SKid Comp LOL









We felt it and it was loud as at our place. Just a really long rumble like continuous thunder. The one we had around 5 years ago was heaps bigger than this. We had heaps of shit break in that one tv fell off lost heaps of plates bowels cups and the clock. THis one was nothing

those lines are the major fault lines on the edges of the tectonic plates.... there are shitloads of smaller faults in the earths surface... so i wouldnt be surprised if there is even a minor fault line much closer to darwin...

I remember that one, was in the evening I think. Was a real rumbler... I thought last night was some crazy series of jets taking off, only they didnt sound right, plus i was a bit out of it, and COOL!

lol I thought someone was stealing Alison's car, the initial noise was similiar to if the rex was idling in her carpark lol I was like errr I think ur car is running... then she got up, then I was like ERRR WTF THE BED IS SHAKING

I was out on the Channel Island Road bridge having a bit of a fish when it hit. It's prety sick lying on the bridge when it's shaking like that.


I never knew the train whent flying across that bridge so fast. That thing's insane.

didn't notice in my end of the house, but my roommate came bursting in and panicing lol. went down his end and all wondows were shaking, best way to find out if it was an earthquake, was to look on facebook. quicker the any of the news and weather sites lol.
