I do hope that this thread will end as suddenly as it started..
But it seems at present there is no let up with the Earthquakes / Aftershocks.

Check out the Video Clip attached to the following news story.

Quote:
New video footage of Monday's earthquake shows the full force of the 6.3 tremor.

The three minute video clip merges images taken from 12 cameras in the Dyers Road Building Centre.

The video first depicts a normal scenario of shoppers and staff at the Christchurch store.

But it soon turns into a very different scenario as shelves start shaking violently, and items including rakes, paint, ladders and computers topple down.

Shoppers and staff try to avoid the falling stock while running for the store's exits.
More of story plus the Video Clip

The following News clip includes photos taken from within the Red Zone and a Video Clip.
Red Zone like a War Zone
