Why the East Coast earthquake was so widely felt

The video discusses an earthquake centered in Mineral, Virginia, which was felt across the eastern United States. Geologists explain that the quake's wide impact was due to the dense, unbroken crust of the East Coast, allowing shockwaves to travel further. In contrast, a similar quake on the West Coast would dissipate quickly due to numerous faults.
