Well a small Earthquake doesn't do as much damage as a large Earthquake. There are about 8 000 earthquakes per day except you cant really fell them! There magnitude on the Ritcher scale is 2,0 and less. But the large ones cause sometimes buildings to fall and bridges... And maybe even a TSUNAMI!!! The large ones on the Ritcher scale is 9,0 and up!!! They also kill lots of people!
