Narrated by: Steven Mackintosh.
Capable of ripping up roads, moving mountains and tearing down towns, they're the biggest force of natural destruction on the planet. They affects parts of every continent. Billions of dollars, yen and yuan are being poured into researching these hazards. A major earthquake striking Los Angeles would cause over $200 billion in property damage. And yet, remarkably, when earthquakes hit, they invariably take us by surprise. This film asks the question that is bugging geologists, seismologists, town planners, big businesses and ordinary people alike, in seismic zones all over the globe; how can we predict an earthquake?
