The pavement heaved as if breathing after an earthquake

A road in Mexico shifted undulating as if breathing after an earthquake of 7.1 degrees, causing many to witness fear.

The cracked asphalt road rises and falls as if it was squeezed by a large underground lung in Morelos, Mexico, and Sun yesterday reported.

People rushing across the street suddenly stopped when they saw the road surface abnormally. Many anxious people carefully crossed, while some vehicles and pedestrians didn't seem to mind so casually going on.

The September 19 earthquake has Puebla state epicenter, leaving at least 233 people dead across the country. Earthquakes shake the road surface, causing rocky chaos and can create hollow pits beneath hard surfaces containing water or air.

Video recording of the road surface caused a debate on social networks, attracting many commenters about the cause of the phenomenon.

The pavement heaved as if breathing.

"The same thing happened in a Japanese park after the earthquake, causing liquefaction, leading to water spilling from cracks," Scott Lenharth wrote.

"I think there may be a sea of ​​water underneath the road. Be careful because it can collapse and become a massive death hole , " Vickie Flores warned.

"The road is only slightly curved when the seismic wave is over," Julie Robinson speculated.

"That's because the tree pops from the crack and its roots lift the entire surface , " said Craig Valentine.
