## Description
What would you do if you were witnessing one of the worst earthquakes of the century? Or worse, if you got the news that your family was stuck in it while you were a nine-hour flight away with no means of contacting them?  
  
This episode starts at 4:17am in Turkiye on the 6th of February, when a 7.8 magnitude earthquake hit the southern part of the country. For context - this is roughly the energy equivalent to 15,000 times the explosive power of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima.  
  
Journalist **Ruzgar Mehmet Akgun**, who covered the disaster, hosts this podcast and brings us the tale of the nights that followed with **Nuri Günay** who witnessed the earthquake at home and Ilayada Habip afar. In the weeks that followed, **Elias el haber**, a researcher with the French Association of Earthquake Engineering, visited the worst-hit sites and shares his findings with us in this podcast.   
  
Could 55,000 people who died, have a chance at being saved? We explain. 

Directed, written and produced by **Nick Heubeck**, **Paridhi Bhanot** and **Ruzgar Mehmet Akgun**. 

The editor in chief is Lorraine Besse.  
A podcast based on an original idea by Alice Antheaume.   
Music : Théo Boulenger  
Illustration : Marine Coutroutsios.
