I was on one around 8 on Istambul when I was younger, funny thing is we all were sleeping and my parents and brother waked up, but I didn't, lol.
Yeah it is scary, lots of buildings were cracked, my hotel too.

God does not existDING!!! 10,000 points!
But yeah, its unusual to have two massive diasters in one week - fluke of course, but no doubt the Environmentalists are already arguing that they were both due to climate change, the ozone layer, or V6 trucks.
