Or something landing near the sensor. Small plane crash, something dropped from a plane, etc.

Ah... good point.

Definitely not a legitimate earthquake... here we are now 5 hours after the "event" and there's not a single mention of it anywhere.. definitely either something near the sensor, or some sort of glitch.

This is rookie work for even doom pron video makers. Please include a wack--a-doo explanation with fuzzy screen images in the video.

I have a rain meter plugin that gives me the current active storms/hurricanes around the world, earthquakes, and global daylight.

No Earthquake near Africa is being shown :l

Someone tripped on the seismometer.

What are the chances of any animal having contact with it? Have there been such reports in the past? Since it shows 0.0 km in depth, this could be the case really.

Someone may have torn it loose and carried it off to the scrap yard. You know how people act ...

If it were an actual event then the graph would capture the duration along with the intensity giving us more clues as to what the event was such as someone tripping or something falling.

WOW. It's there alright.
But it's gotta' be a mistake.


It would be as the planet would be ringing like a monstrous bell if it wasn't. Think about the verified large quakes that were "just" around 8 on the Richter scale and the effects of those from making the planet "ring" to shifting it on its axis a tiny bit. Unlike measuring a temp where 1 degree is just 1 degree, a Richter scale measures strength exponentially; ergo, a 12 on the Richter scale would very likely have planetwide effects. No earthquake of a mag 12 has ever been recorded. I think the highest assumed in prehistory was a 10 and it had global effect.

What kind of event is registered when the data cable is ripped or cut from the device?

Most likely a data recording error in the system.

This needs to be in the hoax bin... no such thing has happened.

It would be all over the news.

Probably not a deliberate hoax however...more likely a mistake, or a glitch, or human error, and I just wanted to understand how that might happen.

Maybe its a prediction!
What if the quake is so strong it actually sends shockwaves back through time at the subatomic level?

I kinda like the way you think.
I still don't want to contemplate it though.

The coffee did not shake in my coffee cup (like in Jurassic Park)... so no.

Going by this handy webpage:

en.wikipedia.org...

Magnitude 6 on the Richter scale is the equivalent of a small yield nuclear bomb.
Magnitude 9.5 is about 9.5 megatoones

Magnitude 13 is the equivalent of 100 teratonnes of dynamite

If that went off, we'd hear the sonic boom several times as it went round the planet several times.

Is anyone's animals acting strange? I just caught one dog eating a potatoe and the other eating a sock. Not chewing but eating!
