On October 1, 1987 at 7:42am, a 5.9 earthquake shook the small town of Whittier. Nerves were rattled, buildings collapsed, and families lost their homes. Today, Whittier has moved on, but the town still bares the scars from this defining moment in the city's history. This video contains first hand accounts of some of the people who lived through this horrible day.
