Swifties might be surprised by some new numbers.
Washington’s Emergency Management Divison confirmed that Ed Sheeran’s show at Lumen Field last weekend was louder than Taylor Swift’s.
The seismic activity happened when Ed Sheeran brought out fan favorite Macklemore who performed ‘Can’t Hold Us.’
“Swifties, please don’t cause an earthquake getting upset,” WAEMD joked.
However, Taylor Swift performing ‘Shake It Off’ blew the Beastquake out of the water.
Here’s a graph from seismologist Jackie Caplan-Auerbach showing the comparison:
Congrats @edsheeran & @macklemore fans. Together, you caused a whole lot more shaking. #EdSheeran

Swifties, please don't cause an earthquake getting upset.
Everyone else, practice drop, cover and hold on before the next real earthquake comes. https://t.co/HSTkBTNeBD
