Liverpool have made history by winning the English Top Flight for the 20th time but they managed to bag another feat while making a comeback against Tottenham in the 5-1 win.
Travis Scott performance at the Circus Maximus reportedly triggered a 1.3 magnitude tremor
The last time something was heard like this was when Travis Scott performed In Rome, at the Circus Maximus, his show reportedly triggered a 1.3 magnitude tremor causing a great concern for the historical sight and also for the fans who were present in the Arena. Tha artist has now been joined in by Liverpool fans who can say the same.
Liverpool fans managed to produce an earthquake of 1.74 peak magnitude
The fans managed to produce an earthquake of 1.74 peak magnitude when Alexis MacAllister produced the comeback goal in the 24th minute.
With the help of the University of Liverpool, The Reds were able to install a seismometer, an instrument that measures ground movement in the Main Stand for the historic occasion in L4.
The second-biggest tremor within Anfield was caused by the goal Mohamed Salah scored in front of the Kop in the second half at a magnitude of 1.60.
Cody Gakpo’s effort measured in at 1.03, the own goal from Destiny Udogie 1.35 and Luis Diaz’s initially disallowed equaliser 0.64.
Professor of engineering seismology at the University of Liverpool said
Explaining the science behind the experiment, Ben Edwards, professor of engineering seismology at the University of Liverpool, said: “This experiment gave us a unique opportunity to use seismology to capture a scientific record of the magnitude of Liverpool’s historic title-clinching win.
“Using state-of-the-art, seismic-monitoring equipment normally deployed in earthquake zones like Chile and Italy, we recorded the incredible energy released both at the surface and below.
“Much like natural seismic events, these goals produced bursts of ground-shaking, triggered by the sheer passion of Scouser fans. Their enthusiasm was literally powerful enough to move the Earth.
“We hope this work will inspire young people to engage with science and see Earth science as essential to building a more sustainable future.”
