Holy shit, that's so surreal! The lack of destruction is unsettling to me; to see this much mass being shifted around so quickly, I would expect to see huge plumes of dust and debris or something. But this was... almost gentle. Like a developer just highlighted a group of assets and dragged them all 20 feet to the side.
Did you see the power pole tower thing on the right? No dust, but there's much more damage than what we can see.
This tree might disagree.
