That's not frightening. The earthquake that hit here years ago split a street that large trucks could fall into. The highway was shut down for a long time. |

I saw on the news the japan earthquake shifted the earth's axis by 10 centimeters. If such a minor shift resulted from such a huge disaster how can they say that a major shift would go unnoticed?

@imlaramarie
Ding,ding, ding we have a winner! I'm glad somebody chooses to study vulcanology! You are now welcomed to the Big Isle because your so akamai.
Yes it's not immenent. It maybe 10k more years. It may be next year depending on Pele's mind. New research by the UHH and othe vulcanologists came out with new findings on the rift zone showing intimate chambers of interconnecting lava tubes (active) expanding and swelling more often than in the past. It will push apart the two sides of the island of about 900 sq miles. Eventually sliding into the ocean. Glad I didn't buy a house in zone 2 or 1. |

I was a kid in San Fransisco during that big earthquake in 1989, and we had a big crack in the road in front of our house. I remember my mom freaking out, because she thought I would fall in. lol She always freaked out during earthquakes. |

How can you talk about something known as "The Great Crack" seriously for so long |

@handy003
Rumor has it that The Great Crack is a result of the south flank of the Big Island moving away from the rest of the island. Speculation abounds that someday, perhaps soon, a major chunk of the island will break away and fall into the ocean, along with the resulting huge tsunami and earthquakes. This actually does happen every ten thousand years or so, so it is not outside the realm of possibility.
Sounds exciting, but this is only a rumor. Indeed, The Great Crack is not a fault that will break the island apart, but instead was created (probably thousands of years ago) as a result of the crust moving apart slightly due to magma forcing itself into the rift zones. The Great Crack has been measured and is tracked and there is no indication that it is enlarging in any way or that the island is shifting near this point. Furthermore, the walls of the crack have been shown to fit together perfectly, thus proving that the crack was a widening of once joined ground. |

Here's a crack in the earth for you.
When the whole side of the Big Island SW Rift Zone breaks off. We are all screwed along any and all Pacific Coast lines. Have a Nice day! |

Okay, so IAB doesn't quite have their facts straight - all the same, regardless of depth or width of said fissures, it's still a testament to the power earthquakes pack. |

those cracks dont go down very far
You're right, they don't.
They're also not that wide. You might get your foot stuck in it if you're a clumsy doofus, but you won't fall into it. |

Earthquake caused the fissures. Earthquakes cause tsunamis. Get a degree IAB. |

"those cracks dont go down very far"
If you look at the lower part of the photo, light doesnt even reach down the crack beyond the several feet already visible. Way beyond the road bed.... |
