- This morning I was rather rudely awakened by a very violent earthquake. Today I interviewed some local Taiwanese people about how they felt and if Taiwan is prepared for earthquakes.

每次發生比較長的地震時，台灣人的第一反應總是「定住」「望著家裡搖晃的程度」，而不是驚慌或尖叫。這是因為台灣人正在內心評估這次地震的嚴重程度，是否有啟動「緊急避難措施」的必要，因為大多數人其實很懶都不想避難。但是，一旦認定地震夠嚴重，台灣人就會快速地依照從小就教導的避難措施，開大門、找掩護或逃到空曠的地方。
確實是如此，以往都是想著反正一下就過了就不跑，但是這次一搖起來第一反應是馬上開門跑完全不猶豫
會觀察這次是不是來真的，如果幾秒後沒減弱反而持續加強就可以撤退了
這次上下震很明顯 我有讀到是大地震 馬上叫老媽去抱小孩 然後就狂搖了😂😂
早餐店那群人真的命大，晚一步的話死亡數字又要加10
選你正解
地震當下我正在遛狗，我想：哦我在走路都感受到地震了，那這個地震應該挺大的。我聽到附近大樓門框窗框哐啷哐啷地響，但是我的狗一點反應也沒有，繼續在灌木叢中嗅聞著，嗯，牠是隻見過世面的老狗😅
狗狗也很習慣地震😂
world's worst guard dog haha
真。穩如老狗!
狗狗：不要鬧！是不是你在搖我？等等！好像有其他狗的味道
搞不好牠經歷過921
台灣人面對地震確實是會比較冷靜，但也會有警覺就是，若是建築有異常情況，有些人會立刻逃出，取決於個人對當下的狀況反應和判斷，但也是會有人反應不及，或是像這次地震，有人是在公路上被落石砸中，有人在爬山等特殊無法逃離的環境下受傷死亡，大家加油平安
I want to apologize to the elderly couple I interviewed in this video for the poor framing of the video. I'm using a new camera and I didn't notice the lens wasn't looking at them. They were such a kind and lovely couple and I also want to thank them for their time and their openness to speak to me. I'm rather introverted so approaching people like this was difficult for me; however, this couple made me feel very much at ease and they were amazing to talk to!
never a good experience, but I think your video shows how well the Taiwanese people deal with such a scary situation.... Hoping everyone can be as safe as possible
規模和震度兩者常常被混淆 台灣使用的芮氏規模(Richter magnitude scale)ML才有小數點，沒有單位，表示震央釋放的能量。 震度(Seismic intensity scales)沒有小數點，為整數，根據民國109年新制分為1、2、3、4、5弱、5強、6弱、6強、7；用於表示能量傳遞到某處後，一地區受地震的影響程度。所以本次地震為"規模7.2 最大震度6強"，title的7.4"級"為錯誤用法 應為"規模"7.4)
今天的地震當時，我在台中一個菜市場附近，
一開始警報響起來，因為菜市場附近人很多，感覺就是幾百支手機都同時響警報，非常大聲，
然後開始搖起來時，整個市場的人都「喔哇」的喊出來，接著就是「哇這好大」「搖好大力喔」「要不要跑啊」（大部分都是台語）的驚呼聲，
當中還突然有一個搖晃，好多人差點摔倒，那一晃真的很大力，之後才慢慢地停下，
之後每一攤都聽到大家在聊地震，
九二一當時我在高雄，雖然高雄離九二一的震央很遠，但是當晚也是搖晃得很劇烈，搖很久，鄰居們都嚇得跑出家門外，不過平息後大家也就繼續回家睡了，一切如常，
但是第二天起床後，新聞全部都在報導台北東興大樓倒塌，之後就非常大量的災情新聞突然冒出來，才知道天啊竟然那麼嚴重，
後來搬到台中，每次一有地震，台中這邊的同事就會開始熱烈的討論九二一，
像是地震前一晚天色變得很紅很詭異，吹起怪風，鳥到處亂飛，甚至有人說有聽到地上一直有轟隆隆的低鳴聲，
之後就是持續很多天，大家就像難民一樣住在帳篷或學校，停水停電，新聞就是哪個鄉鎮多少罹難者，到處都是災情，
所以九二一對全台灣，尤其是中台灣的人來說，只要有經歷過，就會成為永遠的心中陰影😨
921我在台北,我到現在還記得很可怕,搖超久...
老人家的手機特別大聲😅
台北市內湖的表示：馬的在學校，一整個教室的人沒有一個人的手機受到警報，地震來臨前沒有人知道，暴風雨前的安靜是吧💀
921我在震央隔壁的彰化,非常大呢~
左右搖晃其實還好,但上下搖晃就真的很恐怖了~
很像搖搖杯~
我家的玻璃都被震破了,隔壁的大樓傾斜~
停電了一兩天~
The first young man, you interviewed at 2:10, apparently never experienced catastrophic 921 earthquake, so he was seemingly just feeling fun. He didn't realise the deadly quake like today's one is a nightmare for all Taiwanese people. Anyone who had experienced 921 would never like this massive quake to hit Taiwan again. As well as that, today's quake was really reminiscent of 921 earthquake. Honestly, 921 heavily and completely destroyed many cities in Taiwan. Anyways, i don't think it was fun.
i know people in Taiwan are used to living with frequent seismic activities. That's part of our life. Having said that, it's still very scary when confronted with a devastating earthquake.
There's a saying in Taiwan:
小震不用跑，大震跑不了。
If it's a small earthquake, you don't have to run; if it's a big one, you can't run from it anyway.
I think that guy's attitude basically reflects this philosophy.
Yep. I am the Taiwanese. I think that wasn't funny either. Because I experienced the earthquake this morning , feeling very scared. Although I didn't experienced the 921.
What is 921?
@@christianterrill3503 you could refer to this. The earthquake occurred at midnight on 21st of September in 1999.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999_Jiji_earthquake
我也還記得921，今天的震感真的很像921，這樣程度的地震大家其實都很害怕，但因為地震發生的時間通常不會很長，所以大家也就正常活動看待，頂多就是網路上找找震央位置，看看網路有沒有災情傳出，台灣人知道，真正能幫助別人就是捐錢，畢竟大部分人是沒有救災經驗的。
我最難過的其實是「不是…被震到歪了的房子的屋主搞不好房貸都還沒還完」…
還沒好好享受這間房子還完房貸後快樂無憂享受自己房子的老年生活，屋子就不能住人了，但是房貸照樣得還不誤，個人覺得萬一之後有保險金或是善款或是政府提供的慰問金還是幹嘛的，真希望第一個援助到的就是這種家庭啊
我有一個問題，建物被拆除了，但是屋主不是還有土地所有權？
有地震相關的應變措施啦，我記得是房貸不用繳了。
@@user-ep6ei3ju8p ua-cam.com/video/3oyTMDi3EiU/v-deo.htmlsi=J40f-anpmIvjqhq9 我剛剛看了TVBS報導，說是財產或是金錢被放在屋子裡是完全沒有機會進去再拿出來的可能（換句話說像我家有鋪滿跟定存單保險單全部都會化為烏有）
還有房屋地震險是「房子半倒或是全倒才有得賠你」個人覺得那些哭著求立委讓他進去拿東西的災民好可憐，是真的變成幾乎身無分文，所有一生珍貴的物品或是鈔票或是珍愛的東西還有房子通通都沒了（而我為什麼有一部份東西沒有選擇存入銀行而是放一個豬公在家裡每天餵豬公呢？那又是另一個故事+很多很多的難言之隱了，抱歉因為現在是凌晨1點，我實在身體太不舒服，文長，只好暫時不解釋了）

今天的地震是不小，但跟921相比規模還是差了一大段的距離，25年前我住台中縣太平鄉(中央山脈的山腳下)，當晚我還醒著，剛開始搖的瞬間嚇到連動都不敢動，那劇烈搖晃的程度我想就算有想到要逃跑也沒辦法，只能等待地震的結束，不…不對，應該說那時的第一個想法是準備沒命了，等到主震真的結束了，全家人都慌張地往外跑，社區所有的鄰居也都聚集在外面，沒人敢回家。
921 我在澎湖睡覺都被搖醒 就別說本島多嚴重了
@@ikeliang 台中、南投兩地最嚴重，我家附近就有大樓倒塌，我老家那有好一段時間沒大樓建案，只有透天。
那是對你，在花東的人，這次可能比921更大，因為上次震央在南投，這次是在東部外海。
@@skjhfuihff08757 你說得對，我沒想到這點，忽略了相對位置。
這是相對位置的問題，我看新聞採訪一些北部人，他們都說覺得比９２１還可怕
９２１時人在台中，發生時，所有人都往外跑，街上滿滿都是人，但今天地震，就沒這情況了
I've had a few interviews with some American News channels (flexing, I know) and they all asked if I've "seen the devastation". I think people around the world are seeing videos of collapsed buildings and then assuming it's all over the island. While there have been tragedies, Taichung is mostly just fine as you can see from this video. The earthquake was a big one, but it didn't cause as much devastation as a lot of News sites will have you believe. Myself and everyone I know are safe
台灣老舊的基礎建設，仍然禁的起地震和颱風！

@@tonyyoung1991 身為建築從業人員必須很老實地說，921之後的房子比較堅固才是對的，之前的沒倒很多只是運氣好而已，而且偷料的行為以前比現在猖狂多了
@@user-fy3vw3ny1q
有些自建老宅自行監工的那種也意外的很粗勇
10樓8樓的規格建成4~5樓梁柱都粗到有必要這樣造的想法
我在新北12樓地震那時我真的以為樓要塌了但時間沒有921長，921時我是在公寓3樓那時還嚇哭了，總之越高樓層越可怕。
就是因為太過於頻繁了，大家習以為常，但當真正危機降臨時，反而容易造成錯誤的判斷與致命的傷害。凡事還是小心為上上之策。當地震上下震動特別厲害時要特別注意😂 PS:地震通常P波會先到（上下震）之後是S波（左右搖）最後才是週期性的持續搖晃。
Good advice!
體波之中，P波的能量衰減較快，所以在淺層地震或離震央很近的地表，才會感受到明顯的上下震動！
而深層地震或是距離震央較遠時，因為P波的能量已經很微弱了，所以地面常常感覺不到P波帶來的上下振動。
以上引用自中央氣象局
簡單來說，能感受到上下跳動的震波，表示離震央比較近，危險性也相對較高，不可輕忽。
That elderly couple were so lovely and I loved how the husband spoke in English and French. Wish you could've chatted to them longer!
Me too! They were so friendly
當時我們在公車上，以為司機開車太晃，司機立指外面晃到不行的電桿說地震，然後很鎮定的繼續載大家往前開。天佑台灣，祝平安健康。🙏
On the 12th floor in New Taipei City. I got woken up and dived under my desk, very strong shaking from side to side!!
The scariest thing about this earthquake was that it kept increasing in intensity the longer it went. I was in my classroom on the fifth floor of my school. Quite a rollercoaster experience. I kept calm but still it was rattling.
921大地震的震央在南投集集，所以那次台中的災情慘重，很多大樓都倒塌，而且是凌晨一點發生，所以造成全台灣2000多人死亡，現在台灣房屋耐震強度都很高，就是家裡家具要固定好，容易破碎物品不要放在高處，最好家裡放個救難包，已備不時之須!
Prozzie's Mandarin seems to have improved significantly. Good Job!
That’s a quick edit. A true journalist ❤I’m grateful that I live in a 1 floor house. Buildings are definitely scary in earthquakes. My love and prayers go out to anyone who wasn’t in a safe space today. ❤
Glad you're safe man!
Was in Kaohsiung, eating breakfast at McDonald's. It was a 4 on the scale. No panic: everybody looked at each other and returned to eating the egg McMuffins. Been in many earthquakes, but this one was different. Quiet, just a sensation of waves, then transferring to a circular motion. Also, no noise. Strange, I've never been in an earthquake like that and so quiet.
Earthquakes make noise??
@@cooliipie Sometimes strong earthquakes come with rumbling sounds from the underground. Usually there are also rattling sounds from door and window frames.
pffff ain't no way an earthquake be taken them mcmuffins from us
@@cooliipie yes, usually for big ones you can hear some rumbling before it comes
@@cooliipie有一年我們夫妻從北投健行前往陽明山，在經過行義路口繼續往陽明山的林蔭大道上，突然聽到大地發出陣陣聲響，是一種無法形容地鳴的聲音，接著一陣搖晃，看到蜿蜒道路對面餐廳後方坍塌了下來，那一次地震並不算大，但卻讓我們體驗到地震也會有地鳴，那真是一生難忘的回憶。
Glad that you and practically everyone seem to be OK. Stay safe!
you too!
Great resilient people and looking out for each other . I would love 😍 to visit Tiawan!
My mother in law lives in Taichung and she told me it was a strong earthquake 😢. Thankfully all my husband’s relatives are ok. Blessings for Taiwan 🇹🇼
As soon as I saw this on the news I was hoping you were okay glad to see you're good 💯🙏
All good over here!
願罹難者安息，天佑臺灣！🙏
謝謝網友們關心台灣！台灣的基礎建設很紮實，然小傷小損在所難免，花蓮有棟老舊大樓傾斜半倒。總的來說，一切正常良好，電訊、交通在半天內恢復正常，水電供應也都無礙。目前只有10人遇難，大多是登山健行被落石砸中，僅有1教師因返回倒塌的樓中營救愛貓，不幸在餘震中蒙難。

Prozzie開始做一些不一樣的類型囉!超棒!
921 was deadly. People who haven't experienced it can hardly imagine. At 1:47 in the early morning, everyone rushed onto the streets. I remember during the running, the tremors were so intense that I kept falling down and couldn't stand properly. That night, for some reason, even though it was supposed to be nighttime, the sky was a blood-red color, which was really eerie. It felt like the end of the world, filled with a sense of helplessness.
台灣人之間彼此有默契，當突然發生大地震時大家會問候彼此安全與否及檢查自己住宅大樓是否有損壞？經歷大大小小地震，台灣人似乎遵守著無形的SOP，當確認週邊環境都安全了，彼此也都能收到訊息，自然不會發生尖叫或產生過度驚嚇的情緒。餘震結束了，大家繼續各自過日子😂
We work at Elementary schools in Tainan. When one of the aftershocks shook my school all the teachers looked at each other to see if anyone was going to make the 1st move out of the building. The director FINALLY sounded the alarm and while all 1400 students poured onto the track you could hear the admins and teachers grumble beneath their breath. As if they (we) were annoyed we had to interrupt our busy morning for a silly ole earthquake.
What I told all of my friends back home that kept checking in on us, I follow the locals lead. I measure my response to theirs.
Nice to see the Pocket 3 in play! It's a learning curve for sure but the vid looks great!
I feel so bad for not filming that elderly couple properly. They were so lovely! And yeah I remember doing earthquake drills with my students when I was a teacher. They got really good at diving under their desks
The magnitude of this earthquake was as large as the 921 earthquake in central Taiwan 25 years ago, but this time it only shook left and right, not up and down. It's so scary, the memories are coming back.😱
921大多了
Glad you are safe.
Thank you!
Great piece of reporting Prozzie. Amazing how relaxed people were and how little damage was sustained. Well done on the TV appearance!
Cheers! Thanks so much
Glad you and Allen are safe

台灣很多人的觀念是，地震時 大震跑不了，小震不用跑，所以每個都像老神在在一樣...，昨天地震時後看到我爸媽無動於衷，也感覺到他們一點危機意識都沒有...
921之後蓋的房子都需要有防震功能，所以你看到房子倒塌的那些，基本上都是921之前蓋的居多...
對，我身邊的人都不逃，看起來一點都不怕。我超氣的，因為我是全家最怕地震的人，我很想從十樓趕快逃走，但我家人全在整理掉落的東西，還跑去扶倒下的電視😂
看到沒有危機意識的家人，我們真的會氣到不知道怎麼說他們

@@Prozzieyo,今天早上看到你
Our education teaches us that we must remain calm when a situation occurs. Panic cannot help us assess the danger but might make things worse. During an earthquake, we always calm down and consider what we should do: stay or leave? If the situation is not serious, then we should just stay, avoiding panic and causing others to misjudge the situation.
Prozzie, my darlin'! I'm VERY GLAD to see you ok. 🇺🇸🤝🇨🇦 "The Bay Area" means "around San Francisco, California."

921 Earthquake was a catastrophe which everyone who experienced it in Taiwan would always remember where they were and what they were doing at that moment, just like 911 in the US. It left a big scar in Taiwanese people's memory.
People are so chilled in Taichung. Lol. I saw this in CNN! Lol. Praying for Taiwan! Stay strong!!❤
People here deal with threats from all over so they can take a lot
@@Prozzie agreed! We have the threats of nature disaster and the threats from China! We learn to live with it.
@@ProzzieTaiwanese are very resilient.
我覺得大多數人們現在會這麼冷靜對待地震是因為921大地震給當年的政府上了一堂沉重的課程,促使政府在後續的修法中提高建物的抗震等級和在全國的學校實施防災演練以及和地震有關的課程.

Thanks for the update Prozzie. There is very little in the news here in the statea.
you got it!
Wow prozzie on the news 😮😮😮
原來Prozzie的中文講得這麼好！👍 當天7:58地震發生時，我和一位同事正好在電梯裡，在電梯裡搖晃的程度好大真的被嚇到，心裡馬上浮現921大地震的回憶，直接出了電梯還是持續搖晃了好一會兒，後來震度變小後才比較安心走進辦公室上班。
Awesome video!
The biggest earthquake I've ever felt was of this same size and it's the only earthquake that made me actually feel truly afraid. I stayed under my bed during it though and the only thing that happened to me was that my desk lamp feel and the lightbulb broke. I was only 50 miles (80.5 km) from the epicenter. We also had a 6.5 aftershock but it was several hours later. However, that one was closer to my house but it didn't really scare me because I figured it was an aftershock and probably wouldn't get as big as the first one.
It's not always wise to assume that the first earthquake that gets your attention is the biggest one though. The last noteworthy earthquake I was in was a 7.1 and it was preceded the day before by a 6.4. So when I first felt the 7.1, I stayed sitting at my desk because I thought, "Oh it's just an aftershock and it will be gone before I can do anything about it." But then it didn't go away and got bigger, so I took shelter. That earthquake shook for nearly two minutes where I was! It never shook all that hard because that one was more than 100 miles (161 km) away from me but it shook a long time because the epicenter was so far away and the waves tend to spread out. In any case, had it been a larger earthquake with a closer epicenter, it sure would have been a mistake not to take cover with the assumption that it's just an aftershock.
Prozzie thanks for this quick video. You were the source of some international news reference. However I want to remind you that this earthquake is magnitude 7.2. And the intensity scale depends on where you were at. The Chinese translation of magnitude(規模）and intensity（震度）scale are different.
My grandma is in Taiwan too i always visit Taiwan in the summer
Hey Prozzie - I’ve been following your channel for a few years. I’ve always loved your authenticity, your honesty, humour, insights and warmth. I just wanted to let you know that I’m so impressed that you’re taking the leap into becoming a full time You Tuber. That’s a huge accomplishment. I can see the extra time and effort you’re investing in your videos and learning more about your life in Taiwan along the way.
Today’s revelation was your fluency in Mandarin! Woah. I knew you spoke Mandarin, you’d have to after living in China and Taiwan for such a long time, but I’ve obviously missed previous episodes where you displayed your proficiency within an extended conversation with a local.
You and Allen have both kept my interest in Taiwan alive, and because of you both, I finally visited Taiwan a couple of months ago with my wife. Time was limited so we explored Taipei and Tainan, as well as Jiu Feng and the surrounding area. I thought that this would tick my “must visit Taiwan” box, but instead it just added fuel to my desire to explore ALL of Taiwan. Not only did I enjoy the areas I visited, but I absolutely fell in love with the Taiwanese. What beautiful, gentle, open hearted people (well, at least all those that I interacted with).
Righto, that’s all from me. Thanks for all the interesting, amusing and insightful content. I know I’m going to enjoy watching you and your channel grow from strength to strength.
Also “the bay” is the San Francisco Bay Area
Prozzie your mandarin is awesome! I don’t hear you speak it enough. However it was good. 👍🏻 Lastly glad you are okay. My family in Taiwan as well. Thank goodness. Wish everyone stay safe.
I remember just feeling dizzy the first time I felt an earthquake in Taiwan. We were outside in Kaohsiung and there was some worry that maybe a sign may fall off a building and hurt someone. The second time was in a restaurant in Taipei and it wasn’t very big but it was long. We kept thinking it’ll end soon but it lasted longer than usual
Both very scary but there wasn’t any screaming or panic. Just a wait and see type of attitude
祈願先生您一切平安健康
通常台灣人會對二種事情不會太過驚慌！
1. 地震：太常發生了！小地震無所謂，只會忙著發地震文 給朋友！若是遇到大地震，想逃也逃不了，就聽天由命！
2. 戰爭的威脅：都已經聽了70多年麻木了。每次一聽到又有人在那邊瘋狗叫，不會感到恐懼，只會感到很賭爛而已！
I think Bay Area means San Francisco area
Saw your msm segment in the US! Good job! 👍 🎉
我有經歷過921，家住彰化靠近台中，地震過後的第二天，我跟家人正在屋外，5點多級的餘震恰好襲來，只看到停在道路旁的汽車，被搖到在移動，電桿上的電線被搖到有咻咻咻，像甩鞭子一樣的聲音。
The real headline here is Prozzie casually interviewing the locals in mandarin 👍
Although the intensity of this earthquake was high, the damage in Taiwan was not severe compared with previous earthquakes in Turkey or other countries. Many buildings in Taiwan are ugly and old, but their earthquake resistance is still very good. Taiwanese people also took the earthquake relatively calmly.
I remember the 5.4 quake in Melbourne. At first, the floor was shaking up and down, and I was just about to ask who in the office was shaking their leg. But then the walls started moving one way and the floor another. That's when I knew it was a quake. My friend who lives on the 9th-floor apartment in Taipei showed me pictures of smashed frames and lots of damage.
Earthquakes must be extra crazy upside-down
Ive been in a big one on seattle in the late 90s. It was not scary for me since i knew the building i was in wouldnt come down. My dad was working at boeing field when it hit in a huge empty aircraft hanger doing a survey. He said he watched the concert turn into like liquid since he was looking at such large area of flat concert it did weird things during the earthquake.
希望大家平平安安
I hope all your friends are safe and well. That sounds like a really scary quake on the other side of Taiwan. Andre slept through it? That's something I would do, LOL!. Stay safe. Regards from Wales.
The other end of Taiwan nearest to the epicentre had the most damage, buildings collapsed, landslides and other damage. We in the lower mainland of British Columbia can expect a major earthquake as high 9 magnitude at any time. We have been upgrading schools and bridges and other infrastructure for the big one. Everyone that lives in a earthquake zone should have an earthquake kit in there home that includes a transistor radio,flashlight,first-aid kit,medication,water and non-perishable food there’s a lot more things to many to list.
When I was in Japan for work, I had a similar experience. I'm not sure how big the earthquake was, but it woke me up, and moved the bed. I was waiting for an announcement to say evacuate, but it never came, and I went back to sleep.
By the time I left, we were counting earthquakes for fun.
It was quite a crazy thing to wake up to! It was like a 5 here in Hsinchu County despite being further away than Taichung.
I live on the 2nd floor and even for me it was very intense. Can't imagine how bad it would have been on higher floors!
Well you can imagine it cuz I just filmed it hahaha
@@Prozzie Yeah, in your video that was about as bad as it was for me on the 2nd floor here. My monitor fell off its stand. and a few things fell over.
For some reason it was stronger here in Hsinchu County than in it was in Taichung according to an intensity map I had a look at. I still can't imagine what it would have been like on a higher floor here!
I had my first expierence as a german...new taipei 9th floor, now I understand why I feel 5 is quite really strong and not "moderate" as its called. For me it seemed to be more scarier...it was shaking so strong from one side to the other...I was sure the house will break and I prayed. Gladly it didnt. Now it makes sense, the higher you are the more it shakes. Even my taiwanese cousin just keeped repeating saying "oh my god, oh my god". That was no good sign for me because I know normally taiwanese people will stay calm 😂...so I felt its a real serious situation. But after that all the other people seemed to live on as before, so I felt a little bit strange and if I were too panic. It was really a horrible feeling.
@@Meher_Pal Yeah, it somehow hit Taipei and Hsinchu more with an equivalent M5 despite being further away.
Earthquakes are the only thing i can honestly say I hated about living in Taiwan. Hopefully everyone is okay and things get back to normal ASAP. Stay safe mate!
not even the heat?
@@ProzzieOkay, two things!
Please take care!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! You too
I live inTaichung,this earthquake in here is 5 grade not 4 grade.
一樣是那句經典名言，小震不用跑 大震跑不了
Thank God I live in Canada pheeew. Wish you guys the best in Taiwan.
Prozzie your chinese is quite good 👍 not that it shouldn’t be, just haven’t heard it before 🇹🇼 ❤ 🇹🇼
Thanks as always for these thoughtful and informative videos!
位於新北市的觀眾在此發言 雖然不處於震央中心點 但是還是幅度很大 到現在還有點後怕 但是我習慣了 地震真的很恐怖
I hope you're ok
@@Prozzie 謝謝你的關心 我沒事了
因為是地震帶國家，所以建築法規都會要特別做防震結構，所以每次地震的災情不多就不怕了
我真的嚇到了！被prozzie的中文嚇到了沒想到說得這麼棒😂
After experiencing this, you are a true Taiwanese now😂
haha I don't have the heart to be Taiwanese. This was scary
地震當時我先是被國家警報的聲音吵醒，接著房子就開始搖起來，一開始我想說"喔這地震有大喔，等他過去吧"，誰知它越搖越久，感覺整棟樓在旋轉，牆壁裡的鋼骨也開始發出摩擦聲，我就有感覺這次似乎比較不妙喔，於是我坐在床上邊等地震停止邊開始思考我要怎麼辦，然後想到我家在20幾層樓高，家裡還有三隻狗三隻鳥跟一魚缸的烏龜和魚，如果要下樓避難，完全不知道該從哪裡救起，想著想著覺得算了聽天由命，於是我就坐在床上祈禱持咒，等地震結束😂
I once slept through an earthquake. I'm kind of mad I didn't realize we had one because the nearest fault line for me is about 500 miles away so it's super rare to happen. Hopefully everyone is okay.
Bonjour et merci beaucoup
baguette au fromage
Keep calm and carry on (peace)
Yup, I definitely felt it, living on the 17th floor of our building. I've been living in Taichung City, Xitun District near Feng Chia Rd. and Qinghai Rd. for about 28 years. I'm originally from San Jose, CA. so I'm kinda use to earthquakes.
Thank you for calling Taiwan a country
謝謝您的關心天佑台灣
