Watch my 3D CITY PLAZA being tested for 11 earthquakes! What is the biggest earthquake you've ever felt? Let me know!
-------------------------
This project took me 100 tormenting hours...Wait, this channel took me 1 tormenting YEAR haha! Join my efforts in spreading more earthquake awareness around the globe - share this video with friends and family and let's make this comparison video the MOST watched video on YouTube! :) Everything is possible if you believe in yourself.
--------------------
I hope these simulations will educate the general public about potential earthquake related hazards and create more curiosity about Earth Science in general. I do also hope that my videos will inspire a future generation of amazing architects, engineers and scientists! We all need to peacefully work together to make this world a better place. :)

The simulations that I post serve an educational purpose and should be solely treated as such. We should not forget that earthquakes are real world events that can sometimes lead to loss of properties and lives.

    Every building : 💀 Those two buildings in the back : I refuse to collapse🗿

    Is anyone else like me when you're watching an animation video but you spend 200% focus on it like watching a found footage IRL ? 😂 Always love this content !

    Amazing work! You have a great attention to detail. I liked the reflection in the windows and the sound effects 🐶

    Seems like those condos had robust shear walls and thankfully the motion occurred in such a way as to rock the building back as it was teetering with frequency. It's surprising anything survived the XII to be fair. Aftershocks being probably pretty strong if a Level XII event happened would level the rest, though. Seeing the buildings temporarily help support each other with having each part collapse toward the center was neat though in a couple of the earlier ones. Idea for a future video sir since we both like skyscrapers. Can you do say, a 40-60 story building but construct it generally identically in design save the structural type. For example while no way to do a straight masonry load-bearing structure that tall, you could do: --Column + Beam Traditional Steel Frame (spaced throughout like Chrysler / ESB) --V or X Steel Reinforced Trussed Frame --All-Steel Frame --All Reinforced Concrete Traditional Frame --Steel Frame but Reinforced Concrete Core / Shear Walls --All Reinforced Concrete Frame + RC Core / Shear Walls --Steel Tube-in-Tube Design (most modern mid-height skyscrapers) --Buttressed Core / Boxed Tube (Sears Tower structural system) --Mega Column + RC Core (Yokohama Tower structural system) --Mega Column + V / X Reinforced Bracing with or without TMD (Taipei 101 structural system) --Buttressed Triangular Core even if the building is square-ish (Burj Kalifa structural system) And finally maybe an off-axis / unique building like Citigroup / Citicorp Center (Suspended V-Frame steel). Not saying model each of the skyscrapers I mentioned, just apply less or more structural components to simulate them in an identical moderately tall building! Keep up the fantastic work!

    Just another day in Tremble Town ! Great to watch ! Cheers !

    The fact that he used the Globalquake sound effects make it better.

    Nice work! Thanks for your videos its really cool to see them when they are done 🙂

    Hello everyone! This will be so interesting to watch!

    For those who ask, not all structures fall, it depends on the country, there are several where they are anti-seismic, they tend to move more but they do not fall.
