It's hard to describe what the 6.8 felt like back in 94 if you were living close to it like I was, but its what you would imagine the vibrations and pressures to feel like if you were within visual distance of a nuclear bomb going off.
In fact my first reaction since it was a sudden roar and not like the normal ones that have a little pre buildup, was that LA had been nuked.
We had huge double doors with solid brass locks and bolts and it twisted those like they were paper clips. Everything in our house fell and broke. Every room had cracks everywhere. Our pool got all fucked up as did our waterfall. All the foutains broke. The ground split open in our back hill. The garage separated from the house. The walkways all got cracked. The entire house moved off the frame which had been reinforced with huge earthquake bolts which failed and didn't do what they were supposed to.
It was a living nightmare.
