No idea what just happened I just woke up 5 minutes ago heard a noise and the room shook. It wasn’t me shaking but like I could feel the room and bed shake for about 10/20 seconds. Definitely wasn’t imagining it either!any one awake I’m scared

My gran felt one in Wales once.

I never feel them, even though I've lived in an earthquake zone. I'm just not sensitive to them.

I've been woken that way twice and both times it was a minor earthquake.

An earthquake. Where are you?

This is what happened when I felt the Manchester earthquake in around 2003 ish. It woke me up and I couldn't work out if I had a really bad dream or if a car had hit the house.

I went back to bed and then heard it on the news the next morning.

It could have been a very mild earthquake. That happened to my bed once and later on it was reported that there had been an earth tremor.
