I couldn't walk in the streets of Istanbul without the fear of an earthquake. Everything was so DENSE. They say we'd have 5 seconds warning. What can you do in 5 seconds? Not enough time to take an elevator, run to a plaza, or even move from where you are! You'd just have to pray to the gods and hope for the best. It would be a catastrophe.

42:02 most of us that were born and live in an earthquake prone city feel the same way. Not much we can do about it. I remember the '99 quake, i lived in Bucharest, Romania. It was around 3 AM, and we thought it was a small quake in our country, in the morning we found out that it was a big one in Turkey :/

Currently, doing research regarding earthquake preparedness, the key to swift recovery is social capital and earthquake proof infrastructure, reliable forewarning systems do not exist as of yet. Istanbul has a shitload of previous mismanagement to fix. And the way I know my folk, we are going to be in hell once the quake does strike. Many of my family members died in Kahramanmaras in the quake, and that's why I'm doing said research. Turkey really needs to fund its NGO and volunteer sector, because they compensate what the government can not help with. I hope the earthquake never strikes, or at least only strikes once Istanbul is prepared accordingly, but i doubt it. I'm afraid of what comes afterward.

0:14: 🌍 Istanbul faces a grave danger as it is threatened by a potential major earthquake disaster.
6:16: 🌍 Turkey is a tectonically active region prone to earthquakes due to the natural movements of tectonic plates.
12:53: ! Geoscientists use seismic technology to investigate tectonic plate movements along the North Anatolian fault in Turkey.
18:59: 🌍 The Eurasian and Anatolian plates are locked due to friction, accumulating energy that is released in earthquakes every 250 years.
24:22: 🌍 Scientists study the tectonic processes in Turkey to understand the impending threat of earthquakes.
31:03: 🏢 The video discusses the potential risk of earthquake in Istanbul due to poor construction practices and lack of adherence to building regulations.
37:22: 🏢 Existing buildings in Istanbul are at risk of earthquake damage, but a non-invasive technology using shock absorbers could potentially protect them.

Corruption is the root of all evil. Real estate development and construction needs to be regulated and strictly monitored.
