There is an old saying that I love. When something is too hard to believe, be skeptical.

Fox News is no bastion of truth but the video clip speaks for itself.

Crazy stuff - through I would venture earthquakes were climate related in post ice age - as earth was warming up and glaciers were retreating, a large mass of a glacier, depressing the crust was suddenly gone causing a rebound. I would be surprised if such huge mass changes did not result in earth quakes.
