Vivian Pitschlitz in Ferndale, Randburg, said “the entire office building felt like it was rocking”.
“At Welkom it was heavy,” reported Sipho Neff Jwili while Kgothatso Mama'lee Phiri from Pretoria central wrote, “I got goose bumps”.
Iris Allen commented, “We felt it quite strongly in Potchefstroom. Took me totally by surprise - did not know we got them here!”
Jeanette Bergoff on the East Rand was overwhelmed, saying: “My chair was shaking and I could feel it through the soles of my shoes. I felt quite ill as it was happening. Pictures shaking on the walls, cupboard doors opening and closing. Quite bizarre. I literally felt the roof rattling as well. I have never experienced anything like this”.
