  • Dashcam footage showing vehicles shaking violently on the road is being shared on social media linking it to the recent earthquakes in Turkey and Syria on 6 February. How did we find out?: We divided the viral video into multiple keyframes using InVID, a video verification tool. A reverse image search on one of these frames led us to a coloured version of the video, which we used for further investigation. Conducting a reverse image searches on stills from this coloured video took us to a website called 'redrum tokyo’. This website shared the video on 13 March 2017, mentioning that it showed Metropolitan Highway 6. The page also carried a YouTube video with a title in Japanese, whose translated version mentioned that it showed "Metropolitan Expressway No. 6 at the time of the 3.11 earthquake Part 3." The video which showed a timestamp reading 2011.03.11 and carried location coordinates. (Note: Swipe right to view both photos.) The video was taken in 2011. (Source: YouTube/Altered by The Quint) Taking a cue from this, we checked the coordinates on Google Maps, which said that it showed Sumida City in Tokyo, Japan. Using Google Maps' Street View feature, we were able to compare visuals of the video to what the coordinates led us to and saw that both stills showed similar buildings on the left. Conclusion: The video dates back to 2011 as per the date on the video and shows footage from Japan's Tokyo and is not related to the recent earthquake in Turkey.
