it actually is
I just wonder how much the suspensions actually help
I mean if the building starts moving
I was up at the observation deck during an earthquake once
that must have been super exciting
did the ball move?
i just wonder if you even felt anything
no i couldn't see any apparent moving
that one we could see is a model on display actually
yes the 101 is impressive
I just looked it up, the ball is the real ball. not a model on display.
but the bottom is supported by hydraulic stuff so it doesn't look like its moving
yes the hydraulic suspensions
I am just questioning their size compared to the size of the ball
its protection seems somewhat limited though
the hydraulic suspensions seem to be there to limit the movement of the ball so that it doesn't swing out of control
The ball may provide ample suspension from horizontal quakes but the same can't be said for quakes with a lot of vertical movement
if theres vertical movement shits fucked no matter what you do, thankfully thata pretty rare
another small quake right now.
Also Taiwan looks like a sweet potato
🤔
a sweet potato can look like anything
yes but the typical sweet potato is longish and slightly curved like that
no offense intended but please consider for a moment
lol
Is that your home?
Yeah. Fresh cracks
Do you live in a tall building?
somewhat. but this is pretty common
the cracks keep forming between plaster wall dividers
if it were concrete walls i'd be in trouble
Sure, doesn't look cool anyway
i have bad feeling another large earthquake soon.
this is how people here feel 24/7
stay safe fella
