CCTV footage shows a multi-storey building collapsing on a busy street in Hualien, as Taiwan was hit by its strongest earthquake in 25 years. The quake, given a magnitude of 7.2 by Taiwan’s earthquake monitoring agency and 7.4 by the US, struck close to the popular tourist city of Hualien, on Taiwan’s eastern coast, damaging buildings and trapping people amid aftershocks from the quake, which started at 7.58am.

The infrastructure is amazing. Compared to middle eastern pancaking, these buildings stay relatively well intact even when they fall sideways. Thats is million times better than pancaking.

Are you seeing what im seeing? So, the building in front starts to collapse, and the lady in the car is not running for safety, but instead is searching for something in the car.

Unless it was a baby or a kid she was grabbing that lady should have dipped instead of go back in that car

Seems like the commercial ground floor took the liberty of getting rid of some structural elements in the corner... So bad to see most people suffer from one's local vendor's greed and stupidity.
