  2. Actually I've never experienced natural disasters, they might've been minor for me. Definitely, there were no earthquakers, tornadoes and hurricanes. Speaking of floods, they were where I live although that wasn't important for me. It goes without saying that I'm lucky. These things I know are dreadful. Meanwhile I wanted to thank the author for your awesome lessons.

  3. I live in the north of Mexico, and here, the the scariest disasters are hurricanes, one of the most famous is "ODILE". I was not here when it happened but people told me that ODILE caused a lot of damage. Well, where I was living which is in the south of Mexico, there´s a variety of natural disasters, like earthquakes, floods and wildfires. In Mexico, September is known as an earthquakes month, cause the probably of happen one is high. We are surrounded by active tectonic plates. Even when this month is coming up people usually sleep with clothes cause we don´t what time the tectonic plates will say you "hello" and people usually buy "bolillos" to take out the fear.

  4. The scariest natural disaster I soffered was a forest fire. The mountain village where we lived was evacuated and we had to escape from the fire front. Fortunately, Emergency Teams could extinguish the fire and nothing serious happened to buildings or people, although the same cannot be said for the woods.

  5. Firstly, I am grateful for you to your hard work and delegence. I always listen to your videos and practice my English. I've felt what it is an earthquake.if my memory doesn't let me down it was approximately 2015 years (in my childhood)

  9. I live in Turkey. I have experienced earthquake when i was living in İstanbul. The magnitude of earthquake almost 5,5. It was so scary. At last days, it happened in Kahramanmaras city which located in southern in Turkey. It affected ten city, more than 10.000 building collapsed or heavy damaged, and unfortunately, according to official statement, 32.000 people died. The figures of death people are going to rise because process is continuing.

  10. I live in Naples, we witness earthquakes pretty frequently because of the activity of our volcano, the Vesuvius. Actually, that is the scariest natural disaster for us!

  11. I've never been in a natural disaster but i remember the mortal rains of decembre 1999 in the city of Vargas, Venezuela. Ir rain for days until the parts of the mountain fall down and destroied hundred of houses and died hundred of people. Was a terrible disaster tha we still remember every time that rains a lot

  12. My scariest disaster is volcano eruption because it can vaporize me in just seconds and it leaves harmful substances to the air like carbon dioxide and etc. I’ve never experienced before but when it erupts, the area around them may take a very long time to recover.

  13. As an Central american boy, i've lived all the natural dissasters you've mentioned jajaj it's not a bless but I'll tell my grandsons when I grow up that I was very strong and unfortunately inmortal jaja, keeping the irony away it's awful to live all that stuffs :c

  14. Hi connor i'm gonna ask you something that confused me:
    When someone ask to me
    -which collage do you study?
    Am i have to answer this question i'm at the Munich Universty
    Or
    i'm in the Munich Universty
    ?

  15. Hello! I'm here again! Thanks for the video! Here in my town hardly ever there is a flood. The other natural disasters I never saw! Thank God!

  16. I had lived in Uzbekistan for a long time and felt earthquake many times a year, especially in the springs. When it had happened the first time I was really scared, I couldn't move at all. People who lived on the high floors realized that they didn't have enough time to run out and they tried to be safe by staying in the doorways.

  17. I think the most scariest natural disaster can be an earthquake, even though I've never experienced one of them because in Venezuela is not usual, the only common disaster is flood.

  18. that was just happened in indonesia especially in my City Palu Central Sulawesi (on 25 September 2018), earthquake with around 9 magnitude we can't even stand up strightly, Tsunami, liquefaction at the same time. so many people died, and dead bodies everywhere, it feels almost like a dead city the smell of dead bodies is everywhere. my cousin are missing until now because the liquefaction can't find her body until now, it's not only my family, everyone feels the same part of their family is also missing until now, we can't find any even just a piece of clothing they use.
