6 years ago - here in Kumamoto , Japan we had two 7 magnitude quakes within 28 hours . When the first one hit my first thought was that it was the end of the world . You can’t imagine what it’s like unless you experience it . Wife suffered from PTSD for years after .

Yeah, felt it in Taipei area. Not that strong up here. Lasted about 10 seconds and is what I call a “bump” quake. Slight shaking and was sitting on couch and felt like someone was bumping the couch from underneath.

I was there for the 2011 EQ (9.1). I remember attempting to crawl to my restroom as quick as I could.

I hear you. The one that happened in Tainan a few years ago where the apartment building cam down - I was one block from that, literally at the end if the street. Not a nice feeling being awakened at 4 AM to the violent shaking.
