'San Andreas' fact or fiction: Earthquake movie's scenes debunked

Seismologist Lucy Jones is busy separating fact from fiction after the blockbuster San Andreas topped the box office in the United States and in New Zealand.The film, which is based on cataclysmic events following a rupture in the San Andreas Fault, envisions a series of huge earthquakes that wipe out much of California, CBS News reported.When real earthquakes hit the Californian state, reporters turned to seismologist Lucy Jones of the United States Geological Survey for all the facts.Jones, who addressed all the fiction in the film, answering questions on a Reddit AMA, said that most of the high rises in Los Angeles will not come down and that people will not feel this in New York.When asked if a huge tsunami will hit San Francisco, Jones noted that the tsunami was too big for anywhere, they have to have a subduction zone and they don't have one in San Francisco.
