In a report by GMA News on 24 Oras, Dennis Retulla recalled that the earthquake was worse than what he experienced during the typhoon Yolanda in November 2013.
"Nagkaroon ng swaying sandali... tapos biglang nag-shake nang talagang pagkalakas. Halos hindi ka na makalakad talaga, mas masahol pa kaysa sa Yolanda," Retulla said.
"Kasi parang sa isip ko katapusan ko na eh."
A saleslady Gemma Ablen, another survivor also thought it was the end of her. She was inside the new Town grocery when the earthquake hit the area.
"Nasa loob ng store, tapos biglaan 'yung ano, bigla lumindol malakas na malakas. Hindi ko na kuwan... Tumakbo na lang ako palabas," Ablen said.
She added, "Napaka-traumatic, ma'am. Akala ko kasi 'yun na ang katapusan ko."
The report took note that all the trapped victims inside the building were already rescued: Marian Superales, 42; Jenelyn Omolon, 29; Cris Nicole Geraldez, 7; Zanchor Geraldez, 4; Edgar Cabahug, 46 and Irene Flores, 31.
On Thursday afternoon, the quake struck 8 kilometers southwest of the town of Jaro at a depth of 2 kilometers beneath the island. It was felt at Intensity V in Tacloban City and Palo, Leyte, and even as far as Cebu City.
Talagang naman nakakatakot ang pangyayaring ito, at nakakaawa yung mga kababayan natin sa Leyte halos ngayon palangsila nakakabangon pero panibagong trahedya nanaman ang nangyari.
Let us continue to pray for the safety of each and everyone at sana hindi dumating yung sinasabi nilang the "The Big One".
