This is a close-up of one of the cameras seen in my other video (http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-53184). This is the reaction of me and a friend as we feel the earthquake play out. I work in an old lima bean factory in Irvine, CA about 30 miles south from the epicenter of this earthquake. The building isan old wooden factory built back in the 1890s that has beenpartially converted into an office space. (You can see pictures at http://www.earthboundmedia.com/facilities.php?action=tour)This is one reason why you see people running for the doors, thoughI am told the wooden building is fairly good to be in during andearthquake because it bends and moves with the shaking. Regardless, it was scary to be here during the quake.
