Chilean Earthquake

Located in the most dangerous part of the Pacific Ocean’s infamous “Ring of Fire”, Chile is hit by more earthquakes than any other place in the world. But nothing would prepare Chileans for the quake that struck on May 22, 1960–it measured 9.5 on the Richter Scale and triggered tsunamis and volcanic activity. 7,000 would die!
