This is not footage from this earthquake. This earthquake hit at 12am in the morning so these videos are obviously of another time.

> at 12am in the morning

Argh, had to look that one up. 'Just after midnight local time'.

Hmm, I doubt that these videos are the NZ quake. It happened at around midnight, and those videos are in broad daylight.

EDIT: I see others have already corrected this misinformation.

Those videos look like the earthquake that destroyed a third of Christchurch in 2011.
