March 2017 is the six-year anniversary of Japan's Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, which caused the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster, a series of hydrogen explosions which caused the worst consequences since Chernobyl.

It's been almost 5 years since the horrible accident happened at the Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant which was caused by the tsunami triggered by the earthquake on March 11, 2011. This tragic event took away about 18,000 lives... Japan is still trying to recover after this tragedy.

Life will never be the same once you see the damage this natural disaster caused. How will these poor people ever put their lives back together?

Photographer Shawn Clover skillfully amalgamated the pictures of the devastating San Francisco earthquake of 1906 with the modern-day photographs that he had taken from exactly the same spots.

A stress from the earthquake may cause a phenomenon called soil liquefaction.

New Zealand Earthquake

This is a compilation of some of the most terrifying videos about the disaster that recently hit Japan.

These are photos of the 8.9 earthquake that shook the northeast coast of Japan today. The earthquake was followed by a tsunami and aftershocks like fires and a landslide. Some parts of Honshu were under water when a wave swept ashore.

The ground trembled, walls came crumbling down and a massive chunk of ice from one of the biggest New Zealand glaciers drifted 120 miles in the second earthquake to hit Christchurch in five months. The devastating 6.3 magnitude quake killed at least 75 people and left thousands trapped under the collapsed buildings.

Looking at these photos of New Zealand after Saturday’s earthquake, I get chills down my spine. It must be horrible to live in Christchurch where people got approximately 300 temblors in just 5 days. Almost 100,000 houses were damaged. It’s a miracle that no one has been reported dead as the earthquake magnitude was 7.1. Local authorities announced a state of civil emergency for the next week.

New Zealand is located in the area where 2 tectonic plates collide. Every year the country faces more than 10,000 earthquakes, but only less than 10 leave such damage.

Most Haitians lived in horrible life conditions before the devastating earthquake 6 months ago. They still do. But the country is facing even more difficult times now then it used to. The earthquake destroyed 80% of the buildings, and they are still not reconstructed. Most people have no shelters, running water, electricity and jobs. The government has many plans on paper, but has no idea how to realize them.

The blast caused by this 5.1-magnitude earthquake struck in Washington State was heard for many miles around. The eruption of Mount St. Helens happened 30 years ago, and it’s still remembered because it set off a huge landslide exposing the superheated core of the volcano. Entire forests were flattened by the blast’s pressure wave, 57 people died and the erupting ash was deposited across 11 states. Take a look at that horrible event that happened in 1980 after the jump.
