The Earthquake Killed Millions
The earthquake struck Sydney on May 4th 1984 on the Indo-Australia Fault line, the earthquake lasted three minutes.
Before this terrible disaster...
It was eleven fifty eight ante meridian, there had already been sixteen foreshocks before hand.
No one was injured by the foreshocks but everyone started running around screaming like crazy and boy it was hurting my ears.
During the disaster this happened...
Lunch had just started, it was twelve forty three post meridian when the earthquake started, the floors and walls started rumbling and crumbling, roads crumbled downwards. It was horrible 2.7 million buildings were destroyed and five million people died in this horrific earthquake four hundred dying by the fire that the earthquake caused. Streets fell, buildings shook and all I could do was hide under a desk and wait for it to be over while watching our buildings fall and turn to dust.
