Taiwan Earthquake
Dashcam Video …
Shows Boulders Crushing Cars
Dashcam footage capturing the Taiwan earthquake shows just how terrifying it was for those caught in it … ’cause it sparked a rock slide, which crushed vehicles on the road down below.
Check it out … you see several cars being pelted with boulders after the 7.4 magnitude quake. The footage kicks off with one driver making his way up a winding road. The driver is heard making concerned noises as an emergency alert sounds, likely a phone.
As the earth shakes … the cars pull to a stop to wait out the tremble. However, as the video shows, the vehicle in front quickly goes in reverse … making its way down the road as a massive boulder comes crashing down, making direct contact and a massive impact.
The dashcam driver then puts his own car in reverse … narrowly missing a collision with another piece of falling rock. Several more pieces of debris fall from the sky — before the footage comes to an end. It’s pretty wild, to be honest … like something out of a movie.
Wednesday’s earthquake and subsequent aftershocks brought tragedy to Taiwan, with at least 9 people dying and over 963 others injured in the natural disaster.
The earthquake was the largest to hit Taiwan in 25 years … as a 1999 quake had a 7.6 magnitude and left 2,400 people dead. While most held on for dear life, others continued to work through the tremors … including some news station staffers, who were on the air.
The extent of the disaster left behind by Wednesday’s shake is still being determined … but over 100 people are still trapped under rubble, according to The Washington Post.
