    Interesting story about Tokyo's architecture and earthquake-proof architecture, especially Tokyo Skytree, which combines element of ancient pagoda design with modern engineering. However, the announcer identifies the earthquake as being a magnitude 9 out of context, giving the impression that the earthquake in Tokyo was magnitude 9. It was only magnitude 9 at the epicenter but 6- in Tokyo.
