Japan: Ground Swaying and Liquifying

The earth is STILL moving and shaking in Japan. Here we see lengthy closeup footage of sidewalks and streets slowly buckling, twisting and swaying, as well as random spouts of water from cracks in the earth.

Considering the quality of video coming out of Japan about the Tsunami, I predict the first shot in this video was taken by someone of anglo-saxon descent. Dude was moving more than the ground.

Can someone speak to the validity of this video? I am amazed by it, but don't understand it.
I never heard the ground would keep moving after a quake completed (but living in the Netherlands means I know nothing of earth-quakes)? I also wouldn't think that with the amazing forces at work below the surface, on the surface it would manifest at points where one kind of man made street would meet another kind of man made street (why is the movement among the seams of the pavement, instead of just a new crack at a random point in the street)?

Because the seams are the weakest parts. I haven't seen it firsthand, but there are other videos out there of the same phenomena. I wouldn't be surprised if most of the video was taken on the Tokyo Bay Landfill.

People, take the fucking masks off. SARS is the LAST thing you should be worrying about.

How about your house falling into a sinkhole; or getting sick when a sewage line breaks and ruptures up through the street; or a broken water main flooding the city; or a building falling on you.. Oh and let's not forget radiation everywhere, and how you can't eat any of your own food anymore....

Look, no offense and all, but sucks to be you, bro.

edit - Isn't it spelled "liquefy?" >_>

Many people wear the masks whenever they're going to be out in public. It's not SARS so much as any number of things that might be floating around in a city where so many people live so close to one another. And disease outbreaks follow natural disasters.
