Twitch streamers across New York were stunned after capturing the 4.8 magnitude earthquake that rocked the US East Coast on April 4.

An earthquake shook New Jersey and shocked surrounding areas of New York, Connecticut, etc. at 10:30 a.m. on April 4.

The rest of the country was warned via social media and news reports, but people watching Twitch, TikTok and Kick live streams from creators in the region saw it happen in real time.

Twitch streamer ‘Oceane’ experienced the earth moving just over an hour into his livestream while chatting with viewers. The creator stood up from his chair to look out the window after feeling the shaking and shouted at the camera.

Kick streamer ‘Lil $kam’ encountered shaking while on air in New Jersey, but had a more relaxed response. He took off his headphones and gently asked if an earthquake was happening.
