I was sleeping on the 18th floor of a recently built apartment building in Reñaca, Viña del Mar, when I suddenly woke up to a strong tremor. The tremor grew stronger and remained strong for about 2 minutes, during which everything fell inside the condo.

We walked 17 floors down the stairs to check everybody and on the state of the building, which got some minor cracks.
