Info from Licensor: "I was living in Japan, teaching English. Finished for the day, I was walking through a park to the train station. I started to feel sick but then realized the ground was moving slightly. The intensity grew and grew, buildings on both sides of the park began to rattle. An elderly man and his dog were near me as I stood on the lawn, struggling somewhat to remain standing during the intense earthquake. When it finally stopped, I came upon a crack across the sidewalk that hadn't been there. I took a photo, but then realized it was slowly growing and shrinking. Then I saw other cracks and soon the water was coming up through the cracks. I'd heard of liquefaction, didn't realize that was what I was filming."
