The largest earthquake ever

About 1,665 killed people, 3,000 injured, 2,000,000 homeless and 550 million dollars damage are the frightening digits from the largest eartqueake ever happened. It occured in Valdivia, Chile and there´s never been any eartquake as powerful as this, so far.

Severe damage from shaking occurred in the Valdivia-Puerto Montt area. Most of the casualties and much of the damage was because of large tsunamis which caused damage along the coast of Chile from Lebu to Puerto Aisen and in many areas of the Pacific Ocean. Puerto Saavedra was completely destroyed by waves which reached heights of 11.5 m (38 ft) and carried remains of houses inland as much as 3 km (2 mi). Wave heights of 8 m (26 ft) caused much damage at Corral. Despite the destructive description about this earthquake. it´s not the most deadly earthqueake.
