Video shared on X, formerly Twitter, of the deadly earthquake that hit Japan on New Year's Day showed a street that looked like it was 'breathing.'

A 7.6 magnitude earthquake hit Japan on New Year's Day resulting in collapsed buildings, fires, a tsunami and a death toll of at least 55.

Videos of the earthquake's destruction have been making the rounds on social media, but one video captured the ground seemingly "breathing" after the disaster has gone viral.


The footage posted by @mmmin76 on X, formerly Twitter, shows a street in Japan rising and falling repeatedly, almost as if it were breathing.

The caption, translated from Japanese, read:

"It was really too scary."
"There is currently no damage from the tsunami and we are safe."
"On my way to work for the night shift, the ground began to shake violently, cracking open right in front of me, and I was terrified."

The poster shared that the video was taken quickly as they were in a hurry to get to work at a hospital.

You can watch the footage below.

Viewers of the viral video were both mesmerized and terrified.











The poster of the video tweeted a few updates after the video gained traction, assuring concerned people on social media that they, and others in the area, were safe.

"I never thought that the video I put out would become so popular."
"I apologize if this video makes anyone uncomfortable. Thank you for worrying about me. I finished work safely and returned home earlier. Please rest assured that you are safe!"
"Sorry for not being able to reply to everything."

Absolutely terrifying. We're glad this person was okay!

Trump apparently tuned in to Thursday night’s episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, where Meyers poked fun at the president’s complaints about Navy aircraft carriers using electromagnetic catapults instead of traditional steam-powered ones. Meyers joked that Trump "spends more time thinking about catapults than Wile E. Coyote."

Girl's Hilarious Reaction To Getting Divisive Candy For Halloween Caught On Doorbell Cam

In the '80s and '90s, kids were raised with the understanding that they got what they got, and they should say, "Thank you," for what they received. This was true for birthdays, holidays, and trick-or-treating on Halloween, even if they got candy they wanted to throw away the instant they turned the corner.

But kids today are much more communicative about what they like and don't like, and they can be brutal in their bluntness.

The Flat Earth conspiracy theory is strictly a modern online movement, rumored to have begun as a prank, that gained momentum among people who mistrust authority through the power of social media.

There is a persistent myth that Europeans in the Middle Ages believed the Earth was flat. But that is a 19th-century fabrication to sell Columbus Day, not historical reality.
