Mine would be back in 2011, Tohoku Earthquake. Despite being pretty far from the epicentre, the earthquake is to this day the strongest I have felt...

Same here. Was walking out of a friend’s apartment complex in Asakasa Tokyo where I was staying in when it hit. Heard this low rumbling that came from all directions and the birds were going nuts. Looked up and saw the high rise I just walked from swaying while the glass facade of another building was undulating. Never been in an earthquake before so I was more amused about the shaking ground than frightened. And it didn’t help that every single Japanese was very calm, so I thought it was no big deal until much later when the tsunami hit.
