There is like an earthquake on a weekly basis now. I think it would be safe to say that "the big one" will hit us sooner than later. Be prepared!

Regular earthquakes are a good thing.

Each time an earthquake strikes it basically resets the plates. Longer you go without an earthquake the more pressure builds up between the plates.

^Unless a regular earthquake fucks up your whole entire nation then everything is fucked, and im pretty sure people won't give a fuck about the plate reset thing, its not like it resets the destruction and collapsed nation.

Wow it looks like the entire mountain just sheared and shifted right over. That ain't no landslide, it's a mountainslide.

Doesnt it show that Google Earth has already shown a big crack in the land? So it's only a matter of time.

i only heard the news but i dont think it was caused by an earthquake

it was also a sunny day too so it's not a mudslide.

just because it was a sunny day doesnt mean it wasnt a mudslide...that size of mountain probably absorbed so much water over the years, and with the fractures inside of it and mud veins it probably was just a ticking time bomb
