Brenda Mage was in shock as he was filming a house-tour vlog when the magnitude-7.4 earthquake jolted Davao Oriental this morning.
As seen in the video shared by the comedian and ‘Pinoy Big Brother’ alum on his Facebook page on Friday, Oct. 10, he had just arrived in the house where he was staying when the quake happened.
Brenda Mage was showing the home interior when he suddenly paused because of the shake. He then ran outside and shouted to alert his companions. The group then opted to stay in front of the house as they waited for the quake to stop.
‘Habang nag-vlog ako for house tour dito sa Davao, biglang yumanig ang lupa. Ang lakas,’ he said. ‘Lord, sana wala nang kasunod na mas malakas.’
(While I was vlogging a house tour here in Davao, the ground suddenly shook. It was powerful. Lord, I pray that no stronger quake will happen.)
In a separate post, the comedian said he is in Davao to visit a wake.
According to the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology, the tremor was centered 62 kilometers southeast of Manay town, Davao Oriental, and struck at 9:43 a.m
