Taylor Swift fans set off earthquake monitors during Scotland concerts

Taylor Swift fans danced so hard at her Scotland concerts they set off earthquake monitors, according to the British Geological Survey (BGS).

Seismic activity was recorded up to six kilometres away during the three gigs last Friday, Saturday and Sunday at Edinburgh’s Murrayfield stadium.

The tremors reached a fever pitch during the song “Ready for It?” on all three nights with Swifties transmitting enough power to charge 6,000 car batteries, according to the BGS.

Smash hits “Cruel Summer”, “Champagne Problems” and “Shake It Off” also triggered significant activity across the three nights.

“Clearly Scotland’s reputation for providing some of the most enthusiastic audiences remains intact,” BGS seismologist Callum Harrison said.

Although the concerts were detected by BGS’s instruments, the vibrations were unlikely to have been felt by anyone other that those in the immediate vicinity, according to the organisation.
