Further to our pieces on normal people taking photos and videos of the actual earthquake in Chengdu and it effects, we’re grateful to Garth who sent us this video.
It’s shot in Chengdu and shows the earthquake as it’s taking place, with all of the confusion that brings. Then clearly shows some of the devastation in the area as buildings are turned into rubble, while the cameraperson leaves the area on the back on a motorbike.
Gripping stuff.
