* Factual errors: The San Andreas fault is incapable of suffering an earthquake measuring 10.5 on the Richter scale (100 times as strong as the largest earthquake ever recorded). The Richter scale measures strength as a function of fault length, and the fault in question is far too short to generate such a massive jolt (which would be felt all over the world).
* Factual errors: When the Space Needle collapses, its legs are shown as concrete, which cracks and buckles. The entire Needle is made of metal, not concrete.
* Factual errors: A news report states that after the Seattle quake, much of Pike Place Market is flooded. The Market is built on a steep hill, and would be impossible to flood in any condition.
* Errors in geography: The Space Needle falls towards the side with the steps leading up to the base, which is the north side. It falls along a street in between brick buildings. The Space Needle actually has a football stadium, roller coaster, and an opera house to the direct north of it.
* Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In the news broadcast regarding martial law, martial is spelled "Marshal".
* Factual errors: When sounding off the Richter scale during an earthquake, the people are still "shaking" even when the scale is below three. Below three you cannot feel any shaking.
* Factual errors: A 10.5 earthquake as represented in the movie, would actually be much larger than depicted. People would not be able to walk around so freely as they are doing (at a 10.5, the levels of sight and sound would be distorted). Damage would also be total, damaging much more than shown (the destruction would also reach areas as far away as Michigan or possibly even New York).
* Continuity: The epicenter of the earthquake is shown to be extremely close to, if not in, Seattle. However, later on they say that the epicenter was in Ellensburg, which is in central Washington and is nowhere near Seattle.
* Factual errors: The San Andreas Fault meets land around the Colorado River Delta in Mexico, not Long Beach, California.
* Errors in geography: Barstow, California is about 110 miles inland from the Pacific. It is not in the San Fernando Valley as depicted.
* Factual errors: The San Andreas Fault would not split apart, since it is a transform plate boundary, when two plates grind past each other. Only a divergent boundary would split apart as shown, and those only occur in the ocean.
