Eventually, the scraping came to a breaking point. A 750-mile section of earth snapped and popped up as a new 40-foot-high cliff. This created one of the biggest earthquakes ever, 9.2 to 9.3 on the Richter scale!]]> 2022-01-27 22:42:31 UTC https://padlet.com/madelinebottoms/v673v54u09ruoynp/wish/2016900747 madelinebottoms https://padlet.com/madelinebottoms/v673v54u09ruoynp/wish/2016907038 Next, the water started to pull back like someone was sucking it through a giant straw! This left thousands of fish exposed on the beach. ]]> 2022-01-27 22:49:31 UTC https://padlet.com/madelinebottoms/v673v54u09ruoynp/wish/2016907038 madelinebottoms https://padlet.com/madelinebottoms/v673v54u09ruoynp/wish/2016910415 Then, the water stared to bubble and get very foamy. This worried many people. ]]> 2022-01-27 22:53:21 UTC https://padlet.com/madelinebottoms/v673v54u09ruoynp/wish/2016910415 madelinebottoms https://padlet.com/madelinebottoms/v673v54u09ruoynp/wish/2016915588 People near the epicenter of the earthquake were swallowed up in less than 30 minutes. The tsunami didn’t reach others for an hour, two hours, even six hours or more. The wave was instantly pushed up 40 feet by the rising land. Then the water came back down, and the collapse created a series of waves!]]> 2022-01-27 22:59:44 UTC https://padlet.com/madelinebottoms/v673v54u09ruoynp/wish/2016915588 madelinebottoms https://padlet.com/madelinebottoms/v673v54u09ruoynp/wish/2016917020 After the earthquake debris was left every where and many people were hurt, badly injured, and many did not make it out alive. Lots of people were having trouble breathing problems because of all the mud and debris they had swallowed. Others were left with literally NOTHING! No clothes on their backs or coins in there pockets.  ]]> 2022-01-27 23:01:31 UTC https://padlet.com/madelinebottoms/v673v54u09ruoynp/wish/2016917020
