Watch the Earth split in real time: First-ever video reveals 2.5-meter fault slip in seconds caused by an earthquake

In March 2025, a magnitude 7.7 earthquake struck central Myanmar, marking the strongest seismic event in over a century. A nearby CCTV camera captured the fault's rupture in real time, revealing a 2.5-meter ground slip in just 1.3 seconds. This unprecedented footage offers scientists a unique opportunity to study earthquake mechanics and improve future predictions.
