IfGoGo.com is now updating the latest information of this earthquake online. We are NOT official media and we are just a group of bloggers who want the world to know what's happening around us (personally). So if there is any misleading information, just tell us. Thanks for your attention and let's pray for those people in Sichuan, China!

There are three sections of this post, "Death Report", "updating news" and "Pictures and Videos". This post is just updated by hidecloud and me personally. More accurate details might be found at Wikipedia (Very nice overview).

Another update: We got some comments saying that there's a Brazilian Voluntary went to Wenchuan, but their families/friends had lost touch with them. If you have any information, please drop a comment in this post.

  I'm on my road to Sichuan. Don't worry for me. As a soldier, it is my responsibility to go. I did not tell (other people of) my family (now I'm going). I just told you.

• For those who are curious about the feelings on a 15th floor building: However, it's not so horrible after running outside, but when I was inside on the 15th, I was feeling blank. Nothing in my brain. That keeps for about 10 seconds. Then I started to run. A friend of me from Chengdu, Sichuan(very near the epicenter) said this to me on IM:不可能吧？就算是也应该不会太……
  Impossible! If it were really an earthquake it would not be such a big one!
  不！……这地震！……怎么……我已经停止了思考，我被晃得贴在了墙边……
  No!! Omg, I stopped thinking anything, just being thrown to the wall-side 

  (走路都走不稳的程度。)
  (I cannot walk normally)
  走廊上，职员们互相对望着……
  People looking at each other in the aisle

  “躲厕所！！！！！厕所！！！！！”
  Toilet! Go to the toilet, hide there!!!!

  还没到冲过去，早已水管爆裂，水都蔓了出来，天花板也开始漏水(也不知道是不是消防措施，但不是那种散花式的)。
  厕所没法躲了……
  When we were trying to get the toilet, the pipes are all broken, the water shoot outside, the water is spamming out(I am not sure whether the water are from the pipes or somewhere else)

  “电梯呢！？电梯怎么样了？…………”
  “不能！”
  “而且肯定停了…………”
  Where is the elevator?
  No! We cannot.
  No, it must be out of control!

  那该怎么办！……这是 22楼！！！！！！…………
  But what should we do!!! This is 22nd floor!!!!!!

  “办公室？桌子？………”“我的钥匙！！……”“们没锁！！……”“保险柜！！！！…”
  所有人的眼里，印着恐慌……
  Office? Desk? My keys! My door is not locked, my safe!
  Everyone was shocked, everyone's eyes are filled with panic!

  难道就是今天？…………
  so .. maybe i will die today .....

  父母该有多么难过…………………………………………
  i am afraid that my parents would be very very sad ( for my death)

  不管那些了，走楼梯！走多少层算多少层！！！
  墙壁的涂料已经开始脱落，天花板摇摇欲坠……
  我一脚踏进了安全通道…………
  Okay, forget all those stuff. We go downstairs from the stairway. No matter how many floors we can get lower! Then I moved to the security exit.

  满地的高跟鞋……
  满地的文件资料……
  There were files and folders and (women's) high heels all over the floor, a whole messy.

  “下面的快点！！！！快点！！！！！！后面还有很多人！！！！！！！”(一共28层，我从22层出发……)
  Please go quicker, there are many many people higher ( I am at 22nd, and there is 28 in all )

  “抓稳护栏！！别急！！！！！！”
  我已经忘了还有没有震动，我只是不断得抬头看着楼层牌……
  But, so is it today ( that I am dying )

  “17楼！！！！”……
  “16楼！！！”……
  “15楼！！！”……
  17th
  16th
  15th

  大家喘息着，齐声念着…………
  “到7楼了，大家不要慌张，安全了 ，慢慢来……”
  “后面还有很多人！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！”
  All of us were out of breath. Okay, we got 7th. It's safer now!!!
  到了大厅，大家急奔了出去…………
  We get outside finally! All safe!

  顺城大街已经不是往日的车辆拥挤……
  都是人，紧挨着的几个大楼的人全都跑了下来…………
  阻塞了交通，边拨打这拨不通的电话，边说着说不尽的惊险与恐惧…………
  There were thousands of people outside, all from the buildings around. Everyone is shocked and they are making calls with cellphones. However, most of the cellphones were not working

  “快跑！！！！又开始了！！！！！！！”
  "Run!!!! It starts again!!!"
  那就犹如整个城市的人，都向市体育场奔去……
  场景壮观，只能亲身经历，无法言语形容……

  Then, tons of people are running towards a square. I would never forget that moment.

  ……我望着国际大厦外围瓷砖脱落的墙壁……
  ...I was looking at the broken walls
  ……叹息……
  ...sigh
  ……这是个难忘的，一辈子也难以遇到的……
  ...This is a moment that I will never forget
  ……呵呵，但我明白了，我到了那一刻，还是只想起了我的父母……
  ...hehe, However, I realized that all I was think is my parents!
  ……其他的什么也没有……
  ...Nothing else
  ……在此……
  ...So I am giving my best wishes to
  ……愿在灾难中逝去的人们……
  ...the people who lost their lives in this earthquake
  ……早日解脱世俗的痛苦……
  ……在另一个世界快乐的生活……
  ...hope they will get rid of the panic as soon as possible, rest in peace in heaven.

• It's really a terrific memory ever. I was in Wuhan, on a 15th floor and just felt a little sick. However, as I got to the 4th floor, I started to feel better and got this video. You may want to take a look here:Well, I really did not expect that my video would be pushing to the front page of Youtube and on the top featured list for such a long time. I was outside and when I got free back to the Internet, I saw tons of attacks and spammers. I didn't know how to remove those comments and porn video responses, so lots of "good" people started to blame me and threaten me. However, I removed the porn video responses but refused to remove the whole post. But when it was 3:00AM this morning, I was too tired of arguing with thousands of crazy "people" attacking each other and blaming me of not removing something, and when I watched TV about the refugees, I think the video or any attacks on the Internet is completely a bullshit. The people are DYING, CRYING, BEING BURIED hopeless. How can you just attack and blame the opposes at this crisis time? So I hide my video and let those crazy people there. On the other hand, as my videos are taken in Wuhan, though very early uploaded, it is not near the epicenter, so I think it may contain misleading information, it is reasonable to hide it from the "crazy" public. I'm updating this post with Hidecloud in Chengdu (very near the epicenter). And I really don't want to waste a single second with those crazy people shouting on Internet.

  So if you want to watch my video in Wuhan, just contact me on my gmail: awflasher+youtube at gmail.com
