Whoa! Good thing this happened in Anchorage and not a major hub area. Hopefully everyone is okay.

Bruh. Anchorage is the biggest city in Alaska. Nearly half a million in the metro area.

But yeah, here's hoping for as few casualties as possible.

In 1964 they got a 9.2 earthquake. That has major destruction.

Hopefully building engineers have learned much from that event.

Yeah, doesn’t look like a lethal accident. I bet it was scary as hell, though.

Downtown Anchorage, 1964 quake......I think Alaska got off very lightly this time around.
