The Kaikoura Earthquake in November 2016. Imagine lying between the rails of a railway track and having a freight train pass over you - our whole HOUSE was shaking like that.
And we were HUNDREDS of kilometers away from the epicenter.
To give some perspective, parts of the Kaikoura cost had 8m vertical displacement and others were displaced 5m north
We felt it some 700km away
