Taylor Swift's concert in Seattle caused seismic activity equivalent to a 2.3 magnitude earthquake. The greatest commotion was during her songs "Blank Space" and "Shake It Off." The seismic activity was measured as fans simultaneously shaking it off with Taylor Swift. Seismologist Dr. Jackie Kaplan-Auerbach studied the data and was surprised by the findings. Well, hold on a second. It's funny you mention that, because, uh, see, where's my Real News? And now, back to Real News. Oh yeah! Oh yeah, Real News, baby! A Taylor Swift concert has reportedly caused record-breaking seismic activity equal to an earthquake. According to a local seismologist, Swifties shook the ground so hard during the Seattle leg of the singer's current tour, it caused the equivalent of a 2.3 magnitude quake. Seismologists were piecing together the time codes with the largest seismic activity of Swift's quake, and found the greatest commotion was during her song, Blank Space, and, of course, Shake It Off. That's right, baby! Two famous songs. End times are near. There's the earthquakes we've been waiting for. Two toe-tappers. The BBC even had news on this. Wait, wait, this is weird. When was that story? Because I understood, and she was here yesterday. She did these two shows in San Francisco at the Chase Center, and I was under the impression from the local news that this was her first and second stop of her Eros tour. I must have been misled. Well, who knows? This is earth-shattering news, literally. The BBC News Hour did a minute 25 on it. Such was the enthusiasm of the crowd's reaction to a concert by Taylor Swift. Is it the Eros tour? E-R-O-S? I think that's what it's called, yeah. In the American city of Seattle last weekend. Oh, it's last weekend. That it produced genuine seismic activity. Seismic activity! Again, last weekend. This weekend, she's here. And I was under the impression by our local news dudes that this was her first and second stop. First and second. That doesn't sound like first and second to me. It's one of those things where every city she goes to, Hey, I'm here in my favorite city, Cleveland. This is all bullcrap? Is that what I'm getting out of this? By the way, it's the Eros tour. E-R-A-S. Not Eros. E-R-O-S. Let's continue the BBC's report. This was the sound that came from the Lumenfield Stadium when the global pop star was on stage. E-R-O-S. E-R-O-S. Wow. Sounds just like every concert I've been to ever. E-R-O-S. This is the worst native ad they could have come up with. E-R-O-S. Nearly 70,000 fans simultaneously shaking it off with Taylor Swift. Simultaneously shaking it off. Measures the same as a 2.3 magnitude earthquake. According to seismologist Dr. Jackie Kaplan-Auerbach is one of the geologists behind this study and she explained her findings. Oh, let's talk to the geologist. I went and looked at the data and holy heck. Holy heck. I looked at the data. There was this obvious signal. Holy heck. Holy heck. Holy heck. What is this? Holy heck. No. I gotta do that again. I went and looked at the data and holy heck.
