Taylor Swift Fans Make The Ground Shake, Again: Seismic Activity Detected During Edinburgh Concerts
Seismologists have recognized Taylor Swift’s June 7-9 Edinburgh shows as “ground shaking,” with earthquake readings detected up to 6 kilometers away
Seismologists at the British Geological Study have recognized Swift’s record-breaking June 7-9 shows as “ground shaking,” saying that earthquake readings were detected up to 6 kilometers (3.73 miles) from Edinburgh’s Murrayfield Stadium. The activity was mainly generated by fans dancing in time to the music and reached its peak at 160 beats per minute during “…Ready For It?,” where the crowd was transmitting approximately 80 kilowatts of power which BGS said is equivalent to about 6,000 car batteries. Based on the maximum amplitude of motion (the distance the ground moves), the Friday night event was the most energetic by a small margin, recording 23.4 nanometers of movement.
