This is the moment a girl playing darts strikes a bullseye just as a 3.2 magnitude earthquake strikes and she runs off thinking the dart caused the shaking.

The CCTV footage caught the moment in the city of Foshan, in Guandong Province in China, on 5th February.

The video shows a woman, apparently the girl’s mother, walking across the hall, from one room to another.

The tot, wearing a pink coat, comes into the hall and can be seen cheerfully playing darts.

But as she does the first hit on the board, the hall starts shaking as the earthquake rocks the building.

Thinking she caused it with the strike, the girl instantly runs from the board and goes back into the room, and as the earthquake stops, a man, apparently her father, can be seen leaving the room carrying the girl in his hands.

As her startled mother comes back to them, they all stand confused, and one more girl appears beside them as the footage ends.

Local media confirmed that at 11:38am, a 3.2-magnitude earthquake rocked the city of Sanshui.

The local residents took refuge in open areas, according to local media.

No injuries have been reported.

Netizens made comments about the timing of the dart throw after it was posted on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok.

Netizen ‘An Jingxi’ commented: “The video proves that the earthquake was caused by her darts.”
