Wow, you were there? That's scary. I'm glad I've never felt an earthquake. We can get some pretty good ones where I'm from in Oregon, but since I've lived there there have only been minor ones, and some how I've always managed to be in the center of a very strong building or something so I never felt any of them. Lol.

I have been in only one earthquake and it was so small I couldn't feel it. I hear the ground feels like liquid. Is that true?

that would be really cool. I think it would scare me REALLY bad and I might drop a load in my pants, but it would be cool. tornadoes are what make me want to assume the fetal position and wait for death lol.

I can see that, until its within 50 yards of you...then you just might drop a load in your pants.

I think a tornado would be pleasant enough...
I would love to visually see a tsunami from a safe distance...

a forest fire would be bomb

forest fires are actually good when contains. All the ash that falls to the ground, gives more nutrients to the soil, producing healthier soil....

yeah, in certain forests they do controlled forest fires for that exact reason.

Another reason is so that when an uncontrolled fire comes along (perhaps lightening strikes or something) the fire won't be as bad.
