Hull Earthquake on Spring Bank

I slept through it alla nd didn't believe people the next day when they were saying it happened lol.

Lol I live in Hull as a student in a student area (Newland ave). All the girls ran out to the streets wearing only "basic" clothes... thank god for that... :p

i live in lincoln.about 20 miles away from the epicentre.i was sat in one of them swivel rocking computer chairs.think i might enter one of them bucking bronko compertions cause i did well to stay in this chair.mind you i shat myself when it started so that proberly stuck me in it.

Well yes you do. But then how renowned is the UK for seismic activity compared to Chile? what a daft statement!

I felt the fucker.... Was in my bedroom, and all the cupboards started shaking, felt a right big bang too... Rocked all of my Laminate flooring, and I live in Brough which is about 25 miles from the Epicenter, right bastard it were lol

i live in hull but i slept through it :( my mam woke up and she couldnt believe tht me, my step-dad and sisters had slept lmao apparenlty it was rly scary.... so pissed i always wanted to feel one hope one comes back... of coarse one tht wont cause damgae... lol

swalesy you clearly have know idea how big an earthquake can be and what damage it can do. I live of spring bank and thing just rattled for about 15 seconds hardly intense. Have you ever left hull?

that's a bit harsh. i think it was pretty intense for the UK seeing as we only have 'quakes once every decade or something.

they say it happens about every 25 years in the uk.which is nice
