In this episode of Nature’s Fury, we explore the Great Chilean Earthquake of 1960, the largest earthquake ever recorded, with a magnitude of 9.5. The earthquake struck southern Chile, causing widespread devastation. The rupture of the Nazca and South American tectonic plates triggered deadly tsunamis that ravaged not only Chile’s coast but also distant shores across the Pacific, including Hawaii and Japan. The quake destroyed cities, caused landslides, and led to the displacement of rivers. Despite numerous aftershocks and further threats, the resilience of the Chilean people and international aid efforts helped the country rebuild. The quake left an indelible mark on earthquake preparedness worldwide.
