The most recent significant California earthquake was the 1994 Northridge earthquake, magnitude 6.7, which killed around 60 people. The last earthquake above magnitude 7 in California was the 1999 Hector Mine earthquake, magnitude 7.1. There were no deaths due to it occurring in the middle of the Mojave desert.
You can feel it because the waves of the earthquake are very destructive depending on the type of earthquake. The wave you might be feeling is the last wave of the earthquake which is the slowest, but the most powerful. Hope this helped! :)
Aug 5 1910 and Sept 21 1993... both were about the same in shock size. The 1910 earthquake was the largest historical shock within the state's boundaries, but it occurred too far offshore to cause damage, whereas the damaging 1993 earthquake was the largest historical earthquake beneath the land area of Oregon
Good Friday Earthquake, March 27, 1964, south central Alaska
i think it was when the earthquake happened last year
The biggest earthquake in our century is the Indian Ocean earthquake in December 2004 with a magnitude of 9.1. But that's not exactly in the last five years, so the Sendai earthquake in Japan today (March 11, 2011) is the biggest earthquake in the last 5 years, with a magnitude of 8.9.

They have never experienced an earthquake but they only experienced floods.
No. An earthquake would never last more than an hour. Most last less than a minute. The 1989 earthquake lasted 15 seconds.
Because of the 8.8 earthquake in Chile last week.
it last nearly for four minutes
