Why ‘The Big One’ could be worse than we thought | About That
For decades, scientists have been warning Pacific coast residents about 'The Big One,' a catastrophic earthquake capable of generating a tsunami the size of a 10-storey building. About That producer Lauren Bird breaks down a new study shedding light on how and, specifically, where this quake might occur.

Cascadia Megaquake: How The ‘Big One’ Could Wipe Out the Pacific Northwest
The Cascadia Megaquake isn’t just a possibility—it’s an inevitable disaster! This seismic beast, expected to hit the Pacific Northwest, threatens to rival the most destructive earthquakes in U.S. history. The Cascadia Subduction Zone, a 700-mile fault line off North America’s west coast, has been building tension for centuries, and experts predict a magnitude 9.0 earthquake. The 1700 quake left a trail of destruction, submerging towns and creating tsunamis that reached as far as Japan. Now, the stakes are even higher, with over 13 million lives and trillions of dollars in infrastructure at risk. In this video, we break down the science, examine potential impacts, and gauge our preparedness for the Big One.

San Andreas Fault Wakes Up, the Big One is Coming Soon
The San Andreas Fault is one of the most significant seismic threats in the world, stretching across California and acting as the boundary between the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. Its history is marked by devastating earthquakes, such as the 1906 San Francisco event and the 1857 Fort Tejon quake, which highlight its immense potential for destruction. Recent scientific findings indicate that sections of the fault, particularly the southern segment, are exhibiting signs of increased activity, raising alarms about the possibility of "The Big One."

The Really Big One; The Feared Cascadia 9.0 Earthquake
In the United States, there is one disaster which geologists fear above all else; a megathrust earthquake occurring in the Cascadia subduction zone. This exact disaster occurred in the year 1700, creating a destructive Pacific wide tsunami and causing thousands of casualties on the mainland. Yet, today there are now 20 million more people who live in the area than there were when the last disaster struck. So, what exactly might occur if the Cascadia subduction zone was to produce a major megathrust earthquake in the near future? This video will answer this question, by running a simulation of sorts based off of the exact same earthquake which struck offshore of Oregon in the year 1700.

The Cascadia Megaquake isn’t just a possibility—it’s an inevitable disaster! This seismic beast, expected to hit the Pacific Northwest, threatens to rival the most destructive earthquakes in U.S. history. The Cascadia Subduction Zone, a 700-mile fault line off North America’s west coast, has been building tension for centuries, and experts predict a magnitude 9.0 earthquake. The 1700 quake left a trail of destruction, submerging towns and creating tsunamis that reached as far as Japan. Now, the stakes are even higher, with over 13 million lives and trillions of dollars in infrastructure at risk. In this video, we break down the science, examine potential impacts, and gauge our preparedness for the Big One.
California, perched on the western edge of North America, is a hotbed of seismic activity thanks to its spot along the boundary of the Pacific and North American plates. Just north of California, there’s the Cascadia Subduction Zone—a geological powerhouse stretching from northern California all the way to British Columbia. Here, the Juan de Fuca Plate is sliding under the North American Plate, stirring up earthquakes and volcanic action. This 700-mile-long fault line has long been a ticking seismic time bomb.

Scientists have been predicting that California was going to get slammed by a huge earthquake every year for the last few decades... but that earthquake has yet to actually materialize. While the state has been home to some notable earthquakes such as the 1994 Northridge earthquake and 2019 Ridgecrest earthquakes, neither lived up to the hype that people have come to expect. So where is California mega earthquake and why hasn't it hit yet?
In this video we'll cover the geography of earthquakes at large and where they hit most frequently, the history of earthquakes in the United States, and why, specifically, California's "big one" might have been delayed or even canceled entirely.

The San Andreas Fault is one of the most significant seismic threats in the world, stretching across California and acting as the boundary between the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. Its history is marked by devastating earthquakes, such as the 1906 San Francisco event and the 1857 Fort Tejon quake, which highlight its immense potential for destruction. Recent scientific findings indicate that sections of the fault, particularly the southern segment, are exhibiting signs of increased activity, raising alarms about the possibility of "The Big One."

This hypothetical earthquake, expected to reach a magnitude of 7.8 or higher, poses a serious threat to densely populated areas like Los Angeles and San Bernardino. Scientists point to accumulated stress on the fault, overdue for a significant rupture, as evidence of its growing risk. The consequences of such a quake would be catastrophic, with widespread loss of life, massive infrastructure damage, and profound economic disruption. Roads, bridges, utilities, and older buildings would be especially vulnerable, while secondary effects like fires, landslides, and soil liquefaction would exacerbate the devastation.
Efforts to prepare for this inevitable event include strict building codes, public education campaigns, and advancements in early warning systems like ShakeAlert. Retrofitting infrastructure and implementing earthquake-resistant designs in new construction have become priorities, while seismic monitoring technologies are enhancing prediction capabilities. However, challenges such as unequal access to resources and underfunded infrastructure upgrades remain. Long-term strategies emphasize urban planning, utility reinforcement, and fostering a culture of seismic awareness to reduce risks.
These measures, though vital, face the complexities of urban growth and limited budgets. The inevitability of "The Big One" underscores the need for continued vigilance, proactive investment, and collaboration among government, private sectors, and communities to minimize impacts and ensure resilience in the aftermath of a major earthquake.

The Really Big One; The Feared Cascadia 9.0 Earthquake

In the United States, there is one disaster which geologists fear above all else; a megathrust earthquake occurring in the Cascadia subduction zone. This exact disaster occurred in the year 1700, creating a destructive Pacific wide tsunami and causing thousands of casualties on the mainland. Yet, today there are now 20 million more people who live in the area than there were when the last disaster struck. So, what exactly might occur if the Cascadia subduction zone was to produce a major megathrust earthquake in the near future? This video will answer this question, by running a simulation of sorts based off of the exact same earthquake which struck offshore of Oregon in the year 1700.

This video's thumbnail image displays MMI whole numerber contours for the 1700 magnitude 9.0 Cascadia subduction zone earthquake.
Note: This video is not saying that the Cascadia megathrust earthquake will soon occur. Rather, this video's purpose it to help to portray what might be at risk in the event such a disaster did occur. Earthquakes cannot be predicted; we can only look at long term trends and note a general average frequency of major earthquake events on specific fault lines.
