Alright... Last night about 2:12 AM we had an earthquake here in Bosnia. It was 5.0 on the richter scale. And guess what, I'm on the 12th floor of a skyscraper (the last floor). The building was shaking like mad, I never felt so scared in 15 years of my life. The only thing I did was went for my sister, and hugged her, praying to Allah (God). I thought it was the end, so did my sister, and this is the first time something like this happened, to her aswell, and shes 24. My mom was sleeping at the time, she woke up when it was stopping. When it stopped, about 10 minutes later we recieved calls from all around the country from our family asking us if were fine. I literally thought the building was going to collapse. All the windows nearby were broken due to the earthquake. I think this is the strongest one here in Zenica. After some time, about half an hour, we saw people evacuating the buidings, so did we. We were about 30 minutes outside, going into panic what will happen. Some people were having predictions of a 7 richter scale earthquake coming in 4:00. But guess what, we went inside, so did everyone. Maybe its just a warning from God, because its Ramadan and people are going into clubs, drinking like never before, playing loud music. Who knows... I may attach some pictures, later. Thanks for reading.

Stay calm and think positive ;)

So god "warns you" and possibly threatens the life of you and your family (along with causing severe property damage) because of some guys in clubs that you don't even know.
And you still believe in this guy?
-
Wrong section, bro.

God is not a "guy". I won't do any discussions here, I love Allah, always will. He is your and my creator.
Wrong section, bro.
My life is in danger and you're caring about a section? I will post here. If its a wrong section let an admin move it, don't moan about it.
-
I wasn't moaning :cry:
-
I believe in black jesus not Allah.

Earthquakes happen because the world under our feet is always active and will always be. When two plates collide, it causes an earthquake, due to mass of these plates.
This is what you experienced and I can imagine this is quite a scary experience, even though you must not be afraid. Earthquakes occur everywhere and in most of the cases, your earthquake was a single act and won't occur very soon again.
Here in Belgium, a country where no ramadam occurs officially, had a pretty intense earthquake last year and not in that period either. It is simply our Earth that keeps evoluating like it has did the past 10,000,000 years.
Anyhow, I will report your topic and request it to be moved to a proper section, this has no relevance to SA:MP.
-
He is your and my creator.
No, you're wrong.
Anyway wrong section for that. Suggest move to speakerbox?
-
Thanks for the reply.
-
Also you shouldn't be afraid for living on 12 floor as if house collapse it goes down so first few floors are the ones were people should be afraid as they can fall under height of rest house and stones.
-
Moved.
-
Also you shouldn't be afraid for living on 12 floor as if house collapse it goes down so first few floors are the ones were people should be afraid as they can fall under height of rest house and stones.
Yeah. The top floor is probably the safest if a house collapses, lol..
-
He is your and my creator.
My parents made me. :cop:
-
Yeah. The top floor is probably the safest if a house collapses, lol..
Exactly :lol:
-
I believe in black jesus not Allah.
:rofl:
I believe there is something, but crosses, nails and all that are just toooo much for my head.
-
No, you're wrong.
Anyway wrong section for that. Suggest move to speakerbox?

I remember when I was 4, (1999) there was a big earthquake in Athens, I am sure many people from Greece know about it. I was at the kindergarden at that time, and I had a terrible shock and bad memories that still live up to today..except that you're already a grown man and shouldn't be scared of that.
-

He's 15, he's not even a man let alone a grown one.

Keep in mind some people may get offended about your comment...
-
Yeah. The top floor is probably the safest if a house collapses, lol..
But theirs a roof over you :conf: so be ontop of the whole building where's no roof ;)
Anyways Z stay safe.
-
Zlatan, maybe it's a warning, maybe it's a coincidence. If your country is Muslim standards, the chance is high. Anyways, I don't think God will harm you, he loves everyone :-)
-
Wait, a 5.0 and your building was shaking that much. Is your apartment made of bread sticks or something?
In Japan they have those all the time and it's like they don't even feel it.
-
Seems you have no knowledge about this..
-
He's 15, he's not even a man let alone a grown one.
15 is good enough to socialize with people, even take care of himself. Yet he should not be so scared for an earthquake unless he has traumas from past experiences such that.

A 4.0 in the Richter scale is enough to make indoor objects to shake. So 5.0 is pretty enough to shake a building. Some buildings are even made not to be so strict during the Earthquakes so they don't crack. I mean, I believe so, but I haven't much knowledge in this field.

Smarty, if you know you're dying and you just get off with it on the last second, maybe you'll think about your life's actions again, right?

Man I'm 20 and if shit started shaking violently then I'd just be bricking it.
-

Right..
-
Right..
What? I'd be the same if there was a fucking tornado or something.
-

this is the most intelligent thing anyone has ever said
-
Right..
Are you trying to say that if the building you was in started shaking, you wouldn't be the least bit scared? Right...
-

It pretty much depends on the people...
-
Are you trying to say that if the building you was in started shaking, you wouldn't be the least bit scared? Right...
We are talking on a scale of 5 Reichter or w/e which is really small unless the center of the earthquake is near the city.
-

I wouldn't go panic mode. I would be scared but not go around yelling, asking for help.
-

Yes that's normal andrenalin increase, it happens on several situations either out of excitement or fear.
-

I would be scared, a little bit, but excited as shiiii
-
I used to live in California. Anyone who lives in southern Cali or around the Mojave knows that without a 5.0 earthquake it just isn't a good week..
-
We are talking on a scale of 5 Reichter or w/e which is really small unless the center of the earthquake is near the city.
In a place where earthquakes are extremely rare, if not unheard of. The fact that he's on the 12th story of a skyscraper can really make a 5.0 feel much worse, there's no questions he would be scared shitless.
-
This is more like a town and not a city. The center of the earthquake was just 5 kilometers away.
-
Calm down :) and think positive...
-
Yeah. The top floor is probably the safest if a house collapses, lol..
-
But you can't just get out of the door and leave to the streets like in the 1st floor...

I just want to show you this article Estonia, one of the safest places on earth, when it comes to natural disasters (http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/explainer/2011/03/the_safest_countries_in_the_world.html) and also that Estonia is the least religious country in the world. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-14635021) So yeah don't worry, it's not the act of God.
-
An earthquake is not a warning from your God . Its natural disasters like tornados, tsunamis, Volcanoes e.t.c.
Also "Gods shooting" earthquakes because other people having fun drinking listening mucic too loud, i mean, think about it man.
I also believe in God existence (Not allah althought. Being a orthodox christian here.)
Religion teach us how to love other people and vice versa. I dont think they want us to have no fun e.t.c.
Anyway, Glad nothing bad happened to you and your family.
