Taylor Swift fans may have taken her hit song 'Shake it off' too literally.
The main difference between the July 22 and July 23 shows, aside from the surprise songs Swift is known to perform, makes up roughly 26 minutes. "I asked around and found out the Sunday show was delayed by about half an hour, so that adds up" Caplan-Auerbach said.
While the magnitude difference between "Beast Quake" and "Swift Quake" is only 0.3, Caplan-Auerbach said the Swifties have the Seahawks fans beat. "The shaking was twice as strong as 'Beast Quake'. It absolutely doubled it." "The primary difference is the duration of shaking," Caplan-Auerbach explained. "Cheering after a touchdown lasts for a couple seconds, but eventually it dies down. It's much more random than a concert. For Taylor Swift, I collected about 10 hours of data where rhythm controlled the behavior. The music, the speakers, the beat. All that energy can drive into the ground and shake it.
CNN's Chloe Melas, who attended one of Swift's Seattle concerts, shared her observations and experiences as a concertgoer. "Going to Taylor's concert in Seattle was unlike anything I've ever experienced," she said. "You could literally feel the ground shaking beneath your feet. My ears are still ringing."Mat Hayward/TAS23/Getty Images for TAS Rights Management
Even Swift herself felt the energy from her West Coast Swifties, and thanked her Seattle audience in an Instagram post on Monday for "all the cheering, screaming, jumping, dancing, singing at the top of your lungs."Swift's Seattle concerts come as she nears the end of the domestic run of her "Eras" tour, her first tour in five years.
