Did You Feel That???
Filed under: Etc.
OMG!
An earthquake just hit us in Los Angeles before noon Pacific time!
Thankfully, it doesn't seem like it was HUGE, but it was pretty damn big.
That was our first earthquake we've experienced in California.
And it was scary!
Update: It was a 5.8. The epicenter was in Chino.
That's big!

We had a 6.3 here in Tokyo about a week ago and no one even bothered to report it on the news. I turned over and went back to sleep. Happens all the time.
Awww Perezito it was Chino Hills come on were never in the news you got to give us something lol! It was pretty scary I still love ya!
centered in chino!!!! wow, we just moved out from our chino house 2 weeks ago, i would've really felt it. here in laguna niguel, was still pretty bad.
"That was our first earthquake we've experienced in California." is there something wrong with you Perez? Or did you mean the 1st earthquake California has gotten this YEAR? Cause unless San Fransisco isn't in California, there was a very large earthquake there in 1989. My parents were supposed to be in a hotel in SF when it happened, my mom 5 months pregnant with me. Their flights got canceled way before, though, so they went to Montreal instead. If they hadn't, I would be dead right now. So you're wrong Perez.
correction, I wouldn't have even been born…and that's cause the hotel they were going to stay at completely collapsed…
A 5.8 swayer is nothing! Try a 7.4 jumper!!!
It wasn't THAT big. Everyone is being sooo dramatic. It wasn't even that long 10-20 seconds tops. I also like how everyone ran outside. That is not what you're supposed to do. What a bunch of jackasses!
Chino Hills
it was actually changed to be a 5.4 and it was centered in chino hills
go to lovelightandinsight.com !!!!! She was right about everything! She even told me there would be an earthquake soon where I live!!!
lovelightandinsight.com! She said it would be less than a 6.0 but big enough to do something like like a 5.3…she was almost dead on…freaky….has anyone else gotten readings from her?
I was at the dog park and didn't feel anything. My dog did get hiccups tho.
you idiot………before posting your info, get your facts right…..it was a 5.4 according to the official report on the REAL news station and the epacenter was Chino Hills, you woosey get a grip that was nothing compared to the Northridge eartgquake in 94, but that's California living for ya, but hey even if yoy are born and raised here, like I was, it's still not something anyone gets used to. and no it was not long or violent i'm studio city and like I said before that was nothing compared to Northridge, now taht one kept going and going and going, and what distruction it left behind, remember 57 were killed when their apt building collapsed on them while woken up by the quake now thats huge!
I felt it downtown LA! My first one… scary-fun like a rollercoaster. Lets do that again!
ok debst…go die. good job calling p an idiot and a woosey then leaving an entire paragraph like you're the one we want to hear from. angry ass bitch….
i was in the shower, thought my boo was knocking continually to get in with me, opened the door annoyed of all the "knocking" and stepped out a bit, only to experiene my first quakerrr. naked, alone in the house(my boy was actually outside on the phone). screaming.
first times are always too julty, uncomfortably nude and vulnerable… uhk.
Clearly you don't know what a strong earthquake is — try going through the Northridge quake. This was more fun than I expected, although still a bit scary ’cause I almost thought the Big One was about to happen. It was my first time feeling this in an 18-story high-rise. Felt so trippy the way the building swayed.
yea i was at school thank god for my sidekick tmobile was only working to make calls and so called always wit u verizon didnt so many people couldnt contact each other
I live 5 min N of downtown SD and I didn't feel it at all. My Mom lives in Riverside, Ca and when I called to see if she felt it she thought I was joking! She didn't feel it either and she lives 25 min from Chino. Born and raised in Ca, quakes are very natural to me. I just think people should calm down and relax be happy it wasn't a repeat of the Northridge quake.
Get a life Perez. I lived in SoCal for 21 years before I moved up to Oregon. That was your first experience being in an earthquake??? You're in freaking California moron. Cal has earthquakes all the time. Hello San Andreas fault. You are such a moron. You need to get out more. I've probably felt over 15 earthquakes in my lifetime. You get used to it after a while. Oh and do er need a diagram of the epicenter of the earthquake. You are an idiot!!! Everyone knows what an earthquake is. I do hope that everyone is okay
Felt it by the beach in Oxnard! We're in the prime tsunami zone right here!
the epicenter was in diamondbar you fat fuck.
check your sources once in a while.
People are funny….
I live in Chino and the epicenter was Chino Hills, Perez….
and the earthquake wasn't bad at all. Nothing in the house fell and none of the water in our pool even splashed out… haha. We've had worse ones people.
And we always have earthquakes… Nothing new.
it was ScccarrrrY!
I was taking a nap and I ran in the living room.
it was in chino hills. not chino. there is a difference haha. i only say this cuz i live in chino hills. it was fun
)
PEREZ, YOU KEEP PISSING OFF GOD, AND HE'S GONNA PUT YOUR FAT ASS IN THE RIVER.
:l-
Chino Hills is a different city now….
But back in the day Chino Hills was part of Chino.
But the residents up there didn't want to be associated with Chino so they separated… That's why there's always competition between the two cities. Like that new little shopping center they just built, when the chino spectrum was made Chino Hills was mad cause all there residents were going to go there and spend their money, that spectrum was actually supposed to be a mall but chino hills threw a fit and they reduced it to little shopping centers. But the one Chino Hills built is closer to a mall:/ but they do compliment each other because whatever store one doesn't have the other one does.
no big deal if you've lived in So Cal your whole life…I still jumped and ran though
no wonder Hanna Beth's myspace status is "I just survuved an earthquake."
IS ALL SHARON STONE'S FOULT…KARMA IS A BITCH…
I'M TELIING YOU PPL GET SHARON STONE OUT OF CALIFORNIA BEFORE WE ALL DIE….
IS ALL THAAT FUCKING BITCH FOULT….
Re: uBUGr – You fucking la ppl anything with a hills in it is better…
Wowzee!! I was @ a sales training in mb and it rocked the joint! We had east coasters there and they were totally shaken up(after 9/11)?? All in all mother nature is yelling at us. Listen
that was crazy.
felt it in orange!
Thank goodness we're in France
Welcome to California!!!
Your First Earthquake? That was Nothing… Northridge was a real one…
I predict there will be a 2nd, larger earthquake within the next 7 days…immediately followed by a typhoon from the Santa Monica Coast!
"That was our first earthquake we've experienced in California"
what? that's a poorly-grammared joke, right?

"That was the first earthquake we've experienced in California."
YOU ARE AN IDIOT!!!! Here in Northern California, we have quite a few earthquakes. Maybe you should crawl out of your LA butthole and remember that California is a big ass state that does not only include you in Los Angeles.
Perez, You are not only a narcisitic a-hole but you're also a p-tard.
Scary stuff, my bother lives in Upland and was immediately on the phone afterward to let us know everything was fine (I live in Washington). You guys are due for a big one, stay safe!
i hurt my back its not that bad i was in school when it happened on the 2nd floor and i was like crying because i like my mom and sister they handle it and my big siter she was down stairs in the parking lot at her work 4 floors below and she hurt her arm but thank god my mom is ok
It was in Chino Hills, not Chino. They're different cities…f.y.i
I was sitting in my car and it felt like it was moving pretty crazy.
Definitely a fun one!
one of the only good things about living in jersey..
Live in LA…not much fun!
Re: KATHY – he said it was the first time he experienced an earthquake while living in california. no one is stupid enough to not know there are earthquakes there.
the weather and all that's been so fucked up lately i gotta worry about tornadoes every time there's a thunderstorm. there was just a waterspout in brigantine (near atlantic city) on sunday.
We felt it in Rancho Mirage, which is near Palm Springs, Ca.
I live in Claremont and i felt it!!! Way fun!
are u stupid? that's not the first in california. Don't you know about the northridge earthquake? and the long beach earthquake? STUPID!!!!! get your facts right
obviously Perez isn't from California and that explains why it's the first he has experienced, he isn't saying it's the first earthquake ever California has had. Also when he says "our" I'm sure he's not pertaining to everyone in So Cal, I think he's talking about Teddy and him. So lay off him, and stop calling Perez stupid for his grammar in this post. I didn't know he had to go into specifics and maybe it's all those that can not figure out who he is talking about that are stupid. But Perez you do tend to make a lot of grammatical errors in your posts.
Be glad you weren't here for the 1994 Northridge one. THAT was scary!
I just hope this isn't a 'foreshock' to a bigger quake!
stay safe everyone
Too bad it was not the BIG ONE ! I cannot wait till the BIG ONE sinks California and all it piece of shit liberals and overpaid, undereducated celebrities go bye bye !
That will be a great day. Sad for the loss of life, but glad you dumbasses are gone. Then perhpas we can go back to old time and truly have a system of government the way it was intended. Not run by gay loving liberals. I dont hate gays…I just hate the gays that cannot take civil unions and have to mess with marriage. Take the benefits of marriage, but call it something else. You only ruin it for the rest of us.
MAN AND WOMAN = Marriage
GAY AND GAY = Civil Unions ( with marriage perks )
Leave marriage alone…its a religious vow assholes.
I didn't feel shit.
ummm dont you live in cali? so it SHOULDNT be ur first…and it was felt alll the way in vegas as well
Vinnyswebsite on real time quake up dates will blow your mind! I look in every day and was really amazed , in our America, the state that shakes the most is aLASKA.. At least # 3 times a day. Others on the hit list beside cALIFORNIA was iLLINOIS,oREGON,wASHINGTON, oHIO,nEVADA,iDAHO,uTAU etc. I had NOOOOOO idea, DID YOU?????
uhh… the epicenter was chino hills, not chino.
that sO false!! come one Perez …it was so not the first earthquake…!!! getting facts straight anyone??
Thank goodness yours was not a disaster. I'm Peruvian and last year, on August 15th, I experienced one of the scariest experiences in my whole life. On that day a major earthquake struck Lima and other cities from the Peruvian coast. It lasted more than 2 minutes, and it was a fckng 7.9. And we had huuuuuge aftershocks, with 5.0, 5.4 and even 6.0… It's one of the most horrible sensations ever! Almost three weeks of that sh*t… So, try to stay calm on these cases and don't use elevators for God's sakes!
if anybody cares-
the earthquake appened DURING THE BAR EXAM.
Like its not stressful enough
Re: texas –
umm actually 14 years ago there was a 6.6 with the epicenter being in Northridge soo thats not true.. earthquakes aren't predicted
