Coverage of the Los Angeles Earthquake – City Council reaction live video

Estimated around a 5.4 to a 5.8 as the video was uploaded. There have been upwards of 27 aftershocks. This was considered to be a thrust action.

Tall buildings shook and workers entered the streets as the earthquake hit – downtown buildings were affected. 10 aftershocks occurred in the minutes after the initial quake.

Many reports were that the quake lasted upwards of 15 seconds and felt like a strong rolling motion.

City Hall was occupied and Los Angeles City Council was in session, Dennis Zine was at the mic as the quake hit and managed to keep the audience in the hall calm.

    Well, given the fact the building has shock-absorbers, I doubt most people thought it was an earthquake to begin with. If it had no shock-absorbers, everyone would be screaming, getting under their tables, etc. because of the immense difference there is.

    This quake lasted long enough to wake me, allow me to assess what was happening, go to my window, *and* shout across at my neighbors. I’m serious. But I live near LAX. i remember this one as being more of a rolling instead of violent jolts. Still, by no means fun.
