Witness location : Fongshan District (Taiwan) (51 km W from epicenter)

 I was still in bed & my wife made me tea.  She put the tea on my night table.  She said "wake up & drink your tea."  She left the room.  The earthquake happened.  I got up before it stopped & said "If you want me to drink the tea, just say so, STOP SHAKING THE WHOLE BUILDING!"

Witness location : Yongkang District (Taiwan) (70 km NW from epicenter)

ha ha... so scary, this is my first time... and i'm so thankful for your website that keep updating the information. At least, people around the world know what's happened to their life. Thank you very much.

Earthquake here is not too strong, we live in 4th floor, all of the people go out of their room, I and my friends (3 person/room). We all woke up... ha ha ... we can hear the sound, see things around were moving.... thx Gods , it's stopped within 15-18 sec!!! thx God !!! :D

I thought the kids were jumping on my bed during my nap.

Witness location : Palencia (Spain) (10912 km W from epicenter)

Vivo a 60 Km del epicentro (Taiwan no se puede elegir en la localización de esta página).
Comenzó suave y cuando todos lo estábamos notando vino el gran golpe puediendo sentir que el edificio donde estábamos se movía.
Se oyeron gritos en la calle y algunos salieron.
