Theory that the big one may happen in september 2010 (a 9.0 earthquake)

A theory by a guy on youtube. Yes yes I have my kit ready.

Well, I hope he's wrong. I got 20 bucks on this thing happening AFTER the new year, and I swear if my bro actually predicts the right timeframe for this thing, I'll never hear the end of it.

Wait, how exactly would someone be able to predict down to the month not only when an earthquake will happen, but also its magnitude?

I didn't know it was possible to forecast earthquakes so far in advance with such accuracy.DJ_Lae

Get out of my head! :x

Meh say what you like, just posting this so people get a heads up. But if in the event it does happen, I won't go walking to everyones door saying that I was right. But go ahead and check out those Bear Grills videos, real life savers.ggnome213

It seems to me that it would be more productive to worry about real warnings issued by real seismologists; YouTube's track record in terms of its users being right about terrible events predicted in the future is not exactly very good. :P

ITT: Bear Grylls tries to get us to watch his show.

I'm scared i hope he just had a bad night

Oh dont you worry, i already know which electonrics stores im going to loot and what car dealerships im going to have to borrow a Ford F250 Super duty truck to pick up my friends to save from the chaos.

If some guy on youtube has theorized it, it must be true! I don't know about you fools, but I'm getting out of here!

searched the video in youtube and...........ahahahahahaha... *sorry*... ya sure he's hilarious looks like a retard on cr*** or just bored doing this, but still we have to thank him for the heads up if it's real- coz what IF he's right?...

Now looking back in history when the San Andreas went off it was an 8.4 and it rang church bells up in Boston. It also made the Mississippi river run backwards for hours. ggnome213

No, that was the New Madrid quake along the Mississippi River.

9.0? Wouldn't it of been more sensational to say like....10.0?

Nah, at that point even the stupidest people won't believe you. :lol:

Lucky I live in Australia where nothing will happen.

youtube also informed me that megalodons still exist.

but of course, not saying it's impossible. i'm sure if seismologists do discover something, they'll warn the public asap.

As far as I know, earthquakes are not like storm clouds, you cannot predict when it'll rain. It's the same BS as the whole 2012 thing. Frenzyd109

Well, not exactly.. I mean, scientists do know it's coming. It's just a matter of when, not if. 2012 is just bad History channel documentaries perpetrated by big budget Hollywood.

All I can say is... Yay, no school! I hope I'm still alive then, I really want to see what happens after 2012.

did this man by any chance have a tinfoil hat?

if he isn't a sismologist i'm inclined not to believe him

i'm nowhere near california, i'm on the east coast...so i should be ok..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_c6HsiixFS8&feature=PlayList&p=AB08FF78DF62FC0A&playnext_from=PL&index=0&playnext=1 , i'm too busy worrying about this to be concerned about earthquakes.

So... we should trust every Youtube video we see and we should use Bear Grylls for advice?

I live on the opposite side of the Country :P

yeah and our weather channel is right on half of the time,

They even have to audacity to put there is a 50% chance for rain... ANYONE CAN PREDICT A 50% CHANCE IT WILL OR WONT, ANYDAY!

i delayed my decision too see if boxxy posts something on this,

Recently a YouTube video went up about a guy who theorized that the big one in Cali will be 9.0 in September 2010, will be felt as far as Arizona. Now looking back in history when the San Andreas went off it was an 8.4 and it rang church bells up in Boston. It also made the Mississippi river run backwards for hours. Now if this theory is correct I'll pass on some info. Have an earthquake pack ready just in case, you can find out how to make one easily by Googling. An important thing is I want you all to see the Worst Cause scenario video (survive an earthquake) by Bear Grills. He'll give you tips on how to avoid heated pipes, electrified water and so on. He is very good at what he does so don't take it lightly. Also remember that if this does happen the recovery may take a long while but if you keep calm and don't riot like idiots then the recovery will be 10x faster and the U.S. national guard will eventually help you. You can also watch Bear Grills on YouTube or the discovery channels website. Also feel free to watch his other videos like how to escape a sinking car and so on because those may come in handy. But remember this is a theory so it may not happen but just in case, better to be ready then deady. :) sorry if this has already been posted.ggnome213

FLOP. Hyped AAAA.

Good thing I live in Britain where nothing remotely interesting happens.super_mario_128

Well at least you can drink your tea and krumpets.

cool, we need another natural disaster.

I'm in Canada. I don't know how an earthquake feels so im kinda scared. I always think I would break my ankles if one happens.

Official earthquake warning

Be prepared guys
