Chile Earthquake Update; Major Magnitude 7.4 Quake Strikes, Felt by Millions

A major earthquake just struck Chile last night, and this magnitude 7.4 earthquake was felt by millions. While some damage did occur, this quake which was the largest to strike Chile in 8 years caused surprisingly little major damage. This video will discuss why this earthquake occurred and what might happen next based on the analysis of a geologist.
