i felt it here in indiana.
it was 5:30am here tho. my mom had just shut the garage door (the garage is under my bedroom) so the sound of the door closing kinda woke me up, then i felt this shaking and iwa slike wtf? so i sat up and just sat there and i didnt know what was going on, lol.
i thought maybe th emotor that shuts the door was wobbling or soemthin adn shaking my room a little, then i woke up at noon (haha) and asked her about it and she told me about the earth quake.

I'm pretty sure I felt it here in Cincy too. Was a really weird thing to wake up to.
Yeah, it woke me up too, SE of Cinci. I thought there was an attack helicopter outside my house at first.

I woke up and remember saying to myself, what the ****, but then I was like, I must be going crazy or having a bad dream, so I went back to sleep. Then I woke up and that was all over the news and I thought that I was going crazy, haha.

What the hell? Being safe from earthquakes is supposed to be one of the few uppers about the midwest. That's crazy!


Hahahaha. I love that vid. They spent all that time filming a tiny tiny fraction of a building coming apart. IT'S COMPLETE PANDEMONIUM!
