I've been in many earthquakes. But not untill I was 3 or 4, because untill then I lived in the North-western part of Iceland, and there are no earthquakes there.
The biggest earthquake I've been in was pretty big. Well, there were two of them. I've heard many versions of how big it actually was, and I don't know the official number. But I think they were around 6.5-7 on Richter. The first one was on June 17th (our independant day), so everybody were outside, and not many got hurt under falling furnitures and stuff. But the later one was few days later, in the night. But everybody had nailed down furnitures and taken stuff off the walls, so there were only few injured.
Few bridges and stuff collapsed, and cracks in many houses.
But we have earthquakes few times a year, mainly in the Southern part.
