    Pic of the coast road on the Kaikoura coast, I've traveled along it, there is a seal colony on the rocks near the waters edge, hope no one was traveling along it when this happened.

    Mrs is over there at the moment, in the North Island, said it was very strongly felt there, a power pole outside my sisters place in North Island snapped off and her staircase was twisting.
    Interisland ferries can't dock at Wellington or Picton, due to wharf damage. Geonet says there was a 3m tsunami recorded off Kaikoura. Very lucky the epicentre wasn't in a city.

    Aftershocks from 5 to 6.2 felt. The quake itself was felt from Auckland to Chatham islands , which have been on tsunami alert.

    Large earthquake shakes New Zealand
    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    After seeing that building start to fall down in the back ground, why would the cyclist run for cover under a building awning?

    Watch the clip until the 1.47 minute mark.
