Japan has issued its first-ever “megaquake advisory” that flags an increased likelihood of an earthquake measuring magnitude 8 or 9. The alert followed a magnitude 7.1 quake that struck the nation’s south on August 8, 2024. What should you do if you are caught in a “megaquake”?

Japan and indonesia worrying megathrust rn is crazy
In the same time bro
sama sama gempa
yep, coz we both are stitting and located geographically on the ring of fire tho.
Indonesia worry about potentially 8,9 Megaquake... that's nearly as powerful as 2004 Aceh Quake & Tsunami...
@@iwinlee exactly!
Japan is more prepared than Indonesia
Pray for my safety 😅 This is my first year living in Japan and I wasn’t expecting a mega earthquake warning!
GL
How is the situation bro?
Are you okay
Please comment if you can that you're still okay.😢
Pray to Jesus Christ, the only name given by Heaven that has the power to heal and save.
didn't they lift the warning recently? I'm sure it still has a high possibility but it isnt as big of an issue that they thought it was
Because the land of the rising sun is sitting on the Pacific Ring of Fire.
Every 150 years a major mega-earthquake occurs in the Tokai region. The last one was exactly 100 years ago in 1923.
1923 ≠ "exactly 100 years ago"
@@planetX15just excuse the typo bro lol
I'm guessing that was the 2011 earthquake
That’s not exactly 100 years ago, that’s 101 years ago.
@@planetX15 @rachelcookie321 it was exactly a hundred years ago. Happened on September 1st 1923.
Hopefully japan should be safe!
thanks🥹

Watching this while I have a scheduled flight to Japan soon.
Same
Girl cancel it! Ur safety comes first better not risk anything 😭
Same, I'm flying there on Friday 🥶
Japan has always been prepare for earthquakes, but not so mush for Tsunamis since predicting their hight are very difficult and can even cause a false warning where the waves were predicted to be only a small hight, but when it hit land only to find the hight of those waves to be mush terrifyingly higher. This is what happened on 11/03/2011.
May Japan be safe... Or May all suffering be as low as possible... respect from Thailand... 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ring of Fire is no joke
who claim that a joke?
@@ryushui1 chill, it's just a phrase
A Thai Geo expert predicted a mega quake after the last tsunami which he warned was about to happen although wasn't taken seriously because it was a Christmas holiday tourist season.
Japan is still one the most prepared for earthquakes
and it still cannot predict when it will happen (no one can, with our current tech I guess)
let that sink in.
megaquake advisory should always be "I hope I'm wrong" moments.
fact check: the 2011 earthquake only killed 2 people, it was the tsunami that caused a lot of the damage and all those deaths
Doesn't only in Japan, Indonesia really getting warned. I hope everything is safe and alright
Every news source says that they lifted the warning today. Surprised that this video doesn't mention it.
Earthquake power +3 stack
I'll be in Japan in 2 weeks, wish me luck :D
Just stay away from the Tokyo bar girls/Nigerian touts and you'll be fine.
@@Monatio79Correct
Watch out for tourist traps!
if the official announced about that, it must be so serious 😢
something catastrophe would be happened.
Very informative
Flashlights now are rechargeable.
It crazy how japan is still standing.
Japan is one the few countries in pioneering major earthquake warnings. In other countries, you all are at your own risks. You will know it right when earthquakes happen.
Godzilla is angry at all the radioactive water being dumped on him, he's stamping his feet 😂
Literally the opposite of what Godzilla would want though. I think this is supposed to be a slam against Japan for dumping radioactive water, but it just doesn't work with Godzilla.
@@ruekurei88yeah it's instantly clear they didn't know anything about Godzilla
I am afraid there will be more coming…😢
Dr. Vegapunk no lies!

Earth aint playin.
i mean its japan, at least they have ways to prepare for it. If this happened in the Philippines for example, it will be a lost cause.
find the highest open ground that's what I told my grandson to do who has just moved to the south of Japan
Japan smarter than us we need to take their word
I’m leaving for exchange for a year in Kanazawa in a week, am I cooked?
those who wants to come to japan for some purpose, you should taste of it, and you should think about ,do you still want to live in japan, if you can survive it. i reckon you have not imagined what it is, you must think my time in japan would be ok. are you sure? i feel kingdom coming.
USA is secretly waking that up Godzilla somewhere ..
Ong stay safe my friends over there everyone 😢😢😢😢 respect honnor my heart sad 😔 😟
It is absolutely silly for the Hong Kong government to advise citizens to avoid going to Japan out of fear of a megaquake. It's like telling your family members to avoid driving cars because of the risk of an accident. Everyone needs to stay alert, vigilant, and use common sense. People should continue to live their lives normally.
advisory is a warning level, it's usually structured as the following
Danger
Warning
Advisory.
if found serious, the HKSAR may declare a code black and prevent travel towards the area this was last used(as far as i know) The Quirino Grand Stand Hostage Crisis which took the lives of several hong kongers, but they prob also used it during the COVID-19 pandemic
Why? Very sensible if you ask me. They're not telling residents to avoid Japan forever nor have they banned travel. When Japan's own meteorological agency has issued that there might be an earthquake literally in the next few days and a powerful one at that, if you don't HAVE to go, why go? Especially for HK residents, it's literally a hop, skip, and jump to get to Japan hence why it's such a popular holiday destination. It's not remotely a once in a lifetime trip like it might be for other countries. And if one does hit, and even if it doesn't affect you personally, if the country ends up being in a state of mourning, and transport links are closed/disrupted/heavily delayed, is it really such a great trip? People living in Japan don't have a choice, and even then those living in coastal areas have been advised to evacuate or seek higher ground. Don't underestimate the power of Mother Nature. And if this all blows over, and nothing happens, or it's only a minor one, then great! That's the ideal situation EVERYONE is hoping for. But in the event that it's massive, why not be that little bit safer? It's literally apples and oranges what you're comparing to.
It is not silly to protect people from a potential catastrophe, scientific reasoning is pointing to that scenario. Your driving of a car comparison does not make sense at all, as you can never be able to predict when and where a car collision is going to happen, unlike this or a super typhoon for that matter. Besides, this caution is not limiting a person to live life normally, it is a moral responsibility to protect each and everyone's life.
It is absolutely silly to claim that the Hong Kong government's advisory to avoid going to Japan due to a megaquake risk is an overreaction. It's like suggesting that we should ignore warnings about potential dangers just because they don't happen every day. Everyone needs to stay informed, take precautions, and use common sense. Advisories are issued for a reason, and people should heed them to ensure their safety. We can live our lives normally while still being cautious and prepared for potential risks.

Japan has the best building codes in the world. Turkey builders used zero rebar reinforcement and millions died!
Only one town is still standing in the region due to USE OF REINFORCED CONCRETE!!!
BLESSINGS AND PRAYERS TO JAPANESE!
stay safejapan 🙏
Hmmm stay safe japan world is with u
Japan wasn't with Endia when Scorcher.
We're getting a 10 earthquake?
Can an earthquake go beyond that? I know the 1960 chile earthquake was 9.5 magnitude.
I heard something about Mount Fuji erupting at the same time as a megaquake, like these things are on some every so often schedule and it will finally coincide. Heard it could possibly destroy Japan.
Just like people in America worried about yellow stone. 3 days ago there were earthquake in los angels..
@@gekmas435 people in America worry too much about everything, most paranoid people on Earth.

Godzilla is alive
Was not expecting a sudden hong kong mention
How did they jump from Japan to HK, while skipping many many other major populated cities & countries in between????
@@allochris SCMP is based in Hong Kong
should other countries would be worried if the mega quake spreads?
because Japan is sitting next to the Ring of Fire, which is the tectonic plate, i think the other countries would be less impacted, but won't be as deadly. I'm sure the other countries would do their research :)
the nankai trough megaquake affects east asia the most, other regions may not have to worry about it except for tsunamis. other areas with expected megaquakes are along the cascadia subduction zone. likewise, other countries have their own 'big ones' to worry about but thats generally not dependent on the trigger of the nankai trough. better to stay safe nonetheless and read about projected big quakes in your country and in neighboring ones. hope this helps !!
Well the philippines is already worried, mindanao island is continuously experiencing earthquakes, which is not normal because back earthquakes only happen atleast half a decade intervals, now its monthly. In our term, mega quake is called THE BIG ONE. If it does strike millions will die due to poor urban planning and building quality. Houses and buildings in philippines are build to survive typhoon but 90% of them isn't build to survive huge earthquakes, plus being an archipelago, we have lots of low lying areas which are highly vulnerable to tsunami
@@rebeccachiatechnically Japan is a volcanic island that is situated at the plate boundary of 4 plates. It is not next to the ring,but literally on it
pray for japan
Why are people not investing in hard hats?
Today is my birthday 🎉🎉🎉🎉
What 💀
Bro. At the time like this???
Seriously, not the right video
You were born on your birthday? I also have a birthday this year. What a coincidence.🎉🎉
Sounds weird to me the title so I translated the Japanese data at 2:06.
That was interesting.

Too much toxic water can cause quakes.
Proof?
@@kikimbrown is all over the news.
Being at the intersection of four tectonic plates isn’t helping much either

Has anyone noticed that for a while now even when powerful earthquakes happen in the most active places in the world no tsunami has happened. Has nobody found it odd

Talk to ghost..they know what comes...
the cursed lands of japan...
the MAGAquake AWARE 💀💀💀💀
I inform all Japanese who are affected by the quake, quickly evacuate to Malaysia Perak state (Ipoh Capital City) and all their financial assets US$700,000 can survive for free at 3% FD Malaysia Bank Deposit. Malaysia is a country of low cost living even affordable for common poor class locals.

Just fear mongering
Hey Hong Kong residents.
I live in Japan. Come on and enjoy yourselves if you plan to visit. The chances of being caught in a so called "mega quake" whereby you'll be caught in a collapsing building in the near future are slim to none. The chances of misfortune are as likely as being hit by lightning or being eaten by a shark.
SECOND!!!❤
This is what they get for being so introverted and unwelcoming towards foreigners.
Earthquake cannot be forecasting
stay upgraded
Don’t visit Japan now
Relax..... Godzilla only farted...
I'd hate to have Robert as my lecturer, he needs subs ffs
One thing that impressed me was Japanese even have their convenience store selling disaster related item😮😮😮
Even with the warning, if someone give me a free trip to Japan, im gonna go there anyway😅😅 i will bring my helmet ⛑️ & food ration f😅
God's punishment for WW2 and War Crimes
Crazy it's dangerous not kidding
1.0 magnitude earthquake kills 100000 ling lings
Thank you for the comment, go collect 2 rupees J💩I HIND
I thought this was a news about Japan surrendering 79 years ago, hm 🙄
