The 4.4 magnitude earthquake which hit Wales yesterday and was felt across Bath was caught on camera.
Cancer survivor Kevin Bennett was talking to the camera for an interview but caught something different all together.
The quake hit the Swansea area at 2.31pm on February 17 and it’s believed up to ten million people felt the shockwaves.
It briefly halted an interview being done by Craig Lewis, digital storyteller for Tenovus Cancer Care, whose camera caught the room shaking at the moment it started, reported the Bristol Post.
In the video, Mr Bennett is talking to the camera when it happens and a lamp next to him can be seen rocking back and forward.
A speaker on a shelving unit can then be seen shaking behind him - but he doesn't seem too fazed and happily keeps on with his piece.
The earthquake was felt by as many as 10 million Brits as far away as 200 miles from the epicentre in Cwmllynfell.
It was the strongest in South Wales in more than 100 years and was felt throughout Bath.
Swansea University was evacuated and people ran into the streets in fear, as the tremor was compared to everything from a "massive explosion" to a car crash.
Craig, whose role involves telling the stories of the charity's supporters and those who they help through cancer diagnosis and treatment, told the Liverpool Echo how they felt two "waves" when the tremor struck.

He said: "I had spent today filming with our volunteer of the year, Kevin.
A cancer survivor himself, he has spent the last couple of years raising thousands of pounds through sponsored runs and spreads awareness of the services we provide wherever he goes.
"Having run in the London Marathon last year, tomorrow, he will be taking on the Llanelli half.
"We were filming at Kevin's home at the time of the earthquake - there were two waves, a smaller one followed by the larger one, which you can see in the clip.
"It had enough energy to move a few ornaments on shelves and bookcases but not to cause significant damage."
Craig's charity supports cancer patients and their families and funds cancer research - in the home of.
The European Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) confirmed there was a "moderate" earthquake in the UK, putting the magnitude at 4.7, with the British Geological Survey recording it at 4.4.

The EMSC said they had 4,000 reports about the quake and urged people not to contact the emergency services for information and to only get in touch with a genuine emergency.
Earthquakes like this aren't common in the UK, with the British Geological Survey saying such seismic events only happen every three to five years.
The British Geological Survey's website was overwhelmed by traffic following the event.
It wrote on Twitter: "We are in the process of analysing data for the felt report of a tremor in the SW of England. As soon as we know more we’ll let you know."
It was the strongest earthquake to be felt in Britain in some time.
The largest known quake ever recorded was in the North Sea, near the Dogger Bank, in 1931.
The 6.1-magnitude earthquake was 60 miles offshore, but still caused minor damage to England's east coast.
The most damaging earthquake was in the Colchester area in 1884. About 1,200 buildings needed repairs, chimneys collapsed and walls were cracked, the British Geological Survey said.
