0:00 yeah there was like a video that came out of Okinawa where it was like and then you saw that there was nobody on the at the beach and then they had a receding Shoreline like that was pretty bad and everyone's like tsunami yeah oh dude but nothing [Music] happened so Taiwan just had a pretty bad earthquake you guys probably dude that ████ was crazy the videos I seen are insane like the whole bottom flooor is gone and it's like lean it's smooth criminal the crazy thing is that even though that's a 7.4 earthquake right yeah um they had at least nine deaths yeah hundreds of injured you know how impressive that is that's very I was telling Bart I was like dude if this was
0:50 Pakistan that sh would have been like 30,000 dead 100,000 injured they would have blamed Israel yeah I don't know about Pakistan I think they would have blamed India different group different group they would have blamed Ukraine so the thing we're going to talk about right now is like obviously like they you know it was terrible but what like the bright side of this is their earthquake preparedness was such an awesome Flex in this particular situation cuz think of this 7.4 magnitude right um their code for buildings and stuff is so strict that if let's say a 7.4 hits and then your building falls that you uh own yeah and then all the buildings around are fine because they were up to code you go to jail Oh They'll arrest the entire
1:40 company that even did it like in with the leaning tower of taipe you know they cut Corners like a ████ dude if they can prove that they cut those Corners those people responsible for that building go to prison wow yeah it's serious it's awesome sounds like it's working and in like look cuz you know how much Taiwanese people love to save money you know everybody's just like oh why can't I just cut a little bit of corner well because they already know where they they know where Taiwan is it's on a it's on a really crazy fault where um it's called a uh thrust uh fault where it's this one where one's going over the other and because of that line they've had it says since the'80s they've had 2,000 earthquakes or more and they still trying to build tall ████ yeah and there're they're just there already it's kind of like uh with it
2:30 called the it's like every place that's in a basin like New Orleans like it's like it's there go back to China get out of here the first Chinese that went there and it was like oh ████ better go back man so the heard swimming back this is this is how well they've done with uh with earthquake code so in 1999 they had a 7.7 2400 people died ████ 2400 in Taiwan 2400 and then this one was only nine wow and it's it's very I mean of course a 0.1 magnitude makes a massive difference but then look at the numbers for that 2400 they're really like badass at that but only with incentive for people to do their jobs correctly right yeah like great yeah you want to go to jail when I went to the Taiwan the I think it's
3:21 called taipe Tower or whatever the ████ it's that tall building yeah and they'll show you like they have this like balance mechanism in the middle it's like this swivel yeah like a pendulum right yeah and that's supposed to be for like earthquake um oh to let it go like this yeah to balance it out czy and I was like dude that ████ is tight imagine being in one of those buildings huh like as earthquake is going off that must be a trip yo wasn't there Chinese navies and everything around the coastline after that earthquake oh because of the tsunami risk yeah and everything yeah there's so anytime there's an earthquake on that fault line it's massive tsunami risk because so much of in the water yeah and it it's um they always have to be careful but I think it was okay this time yeah there was like a video that came out of Okinawa where it was like
4:11 and then you saw that there was nobody on the at the beach and then they had a receding Shoreline like that was pretty bad and everyone's like tsunami yes oh dude but nothing happened yo that that is scary though can you imagine to see the to see the water just like leave the beach and there hell no dude dude it it looked crazy like post-apocalyptic because you just saw a empty ass like resort beach and then you saw just like these two jet skis like just chilling and like a sailboat and then you can see like the line of water and it was receding like that but then how did it sound how were people yelling it was like no you had the siren they went you know the tsunami sound and then the Japanese lady's like tsunami falling to her
5:01 knees they might as well just record her and then get two birds one St yeah that's the alarm yeah so people don't have to keep yelling what horn is that one dude they ████ they do the same horn in in in Hawaii yes yeah they'll just out of nowhere is like a drill yeah it sounds like no yeah I went through three of them it's like yeah it sounds like a purge oh like a air raid siren yeah yeah but it's ████ loud too everybody drops up to Diamond Head like around the area Diamond Head or to to get elevation mhm just climb to the ████ highest point of the Tower so I guess like there there's there's a really cool thing that points out that taiwan's actually really similar to LA in the sense of like um it sits there's like in in the earth it's like a almost like a basin and the
5:52 sediment underneath it it's like more um it's it moves more oh ████ so even if a earthquake is at a certain magnitude it's affecting La way the ████ more than it would another region because like it's like if you had a bowl of cereal and you put something on top of the cereal and you did this to the Bowl it's like s███'s going to shift right but then some places if you had a bowl of ████ cement like it's not going to be as bad that's a really good analogy I texted my mom right away to see if my family was good and they're all pretty cool they did say they were shaking though your family is there they were in the South so they I think theirs was a four M but where it struck was a 7.4 whatever so they still Shook and they still felt it but wasn't nearly as bad so so you're telling me that if a earthquake of that magnitude hits LA or California we'd be fine we're chilling
6:42 no because even though even though we have a similar building code we don't have those prison laws we're the bowl of cereal though right no one's checking we also have we also have grandfather clauses for a lot of building CES whereas I don't think I don't think Taiwan does especially if it's historical I bet yeah yeah yeah I don't think does that and and a lot of the stuff that is historical is within proximity knock down a building that is up to code yo what if thousand was the Chinese you know going like yo we made an earthquake machine and they're like send it now Chinese Navy ships ████ you know what I mean like that' be crazy you think that's a likelihood hey you never know man chin be making anything they're making clouds now they're making rain yeah don't be surprised they make earthquak tell me they can't make an earthquake they can make a tsunami probably I feel like they
7:33 probably could you probably could I mean with a with a bomb you could probably make a decent tsunami it seems likee a decent tsunami not that they're rid like yo taiw can't catch a break man rate my tsunami. oh that tsunami was super chill that time wasn't that bad what do you think this there's like ████ didn't China uh China want to take over Taiwan no no they don't they don't China's like I don't got to take over what I already got I would try to take over itself St that's weird it's so dumb cuz I don't know okay I was just wondering I don't think they want to destroy it though what's your opinion on that I don't think they want to destroy Taiwan my my opinion yeah what do you think of Taiwan versus China they're going to get smoked taiwan's going to get smoked if
8:23 it's all out War it wouldn't even last like 30 minutes yeah but they got help from Amar and Korea but do you think do you think Taiwan should become part of China again fully for their own safety for their own safety for their own safety if they had to if they had like seven ships Navy ships going like yo we got 100 mm cannons at your face I say yo give up go there now in your opinion what's easier to solve China versus Taiwan or Palestine versus oh my god oh what's easier what's easier to solve you don't have to say what you feel but just like which one what would be easier to solve for you if you had I think Taiwan and China Tai time was way that one is you guys are just tripping yeah you guys are being
9:13 silly Israel and Palestine that's like 50 years old beef Israel palestine's like long centuries dud that ████ centuries it's hard to it's a lot to unpack yeah it's two different books that's why it's going to be hard to settle down there's no way you know what I'm saying yeah Taiwan China taiwan's like sibling siblings having a little bit of a argument they just need to drop e on both sides and they're good yeah yeah oh damn yeah oh give them weed damn yeah or just they should just share the proceeds of the earthquake machine it's going to make a lot of money yeah that thing's getting rented out a lot I feel like for China they'll be like it's it's too much work to do all that but I think they got politicians that are pro-china in Taiwan oh that is
10:04 true they do have that too yeah so they're like we'll just do it we'll just do politically what do you think what do you honestly think of uh China's work in making Africa a better Nation they dude honestly they actually got smoked when they when they sent out their army out there to help out the UN the China un thingy not un but I don't know what you're saying no no it's so okay okay so they actually the Chinese did they actually sent out a bunch of their military dudes out there to Africa to Africa to help uh just sustain all the peace peace or whatever they have and they actually got smoked by the Warlords by the Africans dude damn I got to I don't know anything about this i' be watching too much man that's believable though all I know is the weirdest thing is Chinese people
10:56 living in Africa making African friends and making Tik Tok together and then you have African Chinese pop stars that's cool damn that's the craziest sh that is pretty crazy you guys see that one ad where the guy goes we love you like the you got like five seven of them you can pay them to do ads and they're like there's like Joel We love you Joel happy birthday and they take your photo and they kiss it yeah and then they do like an African dance those guys are read the comments like this is slavery I'm like damn bro everyone's complaining still like what the ████ it's it's it's this is slavery everything's slavery that is that is what people say what a way to use them for Advantage I'm like bro because you're it's like you're dangling like money that's kind of like nothing to you but then to them being a husband is a slave man slavery bro D you said it you said it I didn't say it but true but if
11:47 you're but if there's like you know if there's people in a village somewhere that are offering a service for money like yeah it'd be cool to pay them something rather than buy a Hallmark card you know like it seems like at least intuitively it seems kind of nicer but but no it's smart all they have to say is we love you Joel and then but it's the idea is that it's demeaning but who knows maybe it's maybe it's [Music] chill
