00:00Mexico is experiencing a moment it had been waiting for decades.
00:04Football feels different in a country of more than 130 million people.
00:09Where every goal is not just celebrated, it feels like a shake through the ground.
00:14During the World Cup match, goals from Julian Quinones and Raul Jimenez didn't just ignite euphoria in the streets,
00:22they also triggered seismic sensors in Mexico City.
00:25Yes, official monitoring stations recorded ground movement right in the middle of Eltrie's celebration.
00:33Huge crowds jumping at the same time created enough vibration to be picked up by seismic stations,
00:40a phenomenon known as an artificial earthquake, caused by human activity rather than tectonic plates.
00:47Mexico, located in one of the most seismically active regions in the world, is constantly under geological monitoring.
00:55But this time, the tremor didn't come from beneath the earth.
01:00It came from the stands, from the streets, and from a goal celebration.
01:05A reminder that when Mexico celebrates, the whole country moves.
