The Terrifying Truth About the Fault Beneath Los Angeles No One Talks About

The San Andreas Fault hasn't moved in over 340 years. Scientists say it's not resting. It's loading. And when it finally breaks, the earthquake won't be the real disaster. In this video, we break down what a major San Andreas Fault earthquake would actually do to Los Angeles. From the 1,600 fires that could ignite at once to the three aqueducts that all cross the same fault line, carrying over 70% of Southern California's water. When they snap, 20 million people could face months without water in the middle of a firestorm. Based on the USGS ShakeOut Scenario led by seismologist Lucy Jones and over 300 scientists, this is the most detailed look at the big one California has been waiting for and why experts say it's overdue.
