The Philippines earthquake has rocked southern parts of the nation - the second quake to strike the "Ring of Fire" area in just 24 hours. A horrifying viral video has emerged from Manila, the capital of the Philippines. Footage shows a rooftop swimming pool cascading down the side of a skyscraper as the building sways from the impact of the seismic activity. Torrents of water pour down the side of the structure resulting in an almost cloud-like effect as the water is caught by the wind.

Dozens of people can be seen running away from the alarming scene at Anchor Skysuites, a large apartment block in the centre of Manila.

Another video from Manila shows a building suffering a similar situation.

Footage shows a swimming pool overflowing down the side of Net Park, a 48-story green and sustainable corporate tower.

The ”Ring of Fire" area of the Philippines is prone to natural disasters.

There were no immediate reports of destruction from today’s quake there but the national seismology agency said damage could be expected. 

The stronger quake followed another one which shook the country's biggest island on Monday and killed at least 15 people on Monday.

Monday's 6.3 quake hit Porac, about 110 km (68 miles) north of Manila and damaged several buildings.

Rescue teams in the Philippines have been searching for signs of life beneath the rubble.

Currently, no tsunami warning has been issued, and little or no landsliding is expected.

However, the US Geological Survey (USGS) said they will continue to monitor shaking that could lead to ground failure. 

Porac Mayor Condralito Dela Cruz said the earthquake was the most intense the town had ever experienced.

He said: "We're not sure how many people are trapped still. We can still hear some voices, the voice of a woman."

Aurelia Daeng, 65, was in her family drug store in Porac when Monday's quake struck.

She told of breaking windows, leaving cracks in the floor and destroying one wall of her home: "It was very strong. It was our first time experiencing something like that. This one, it's terrifying."

The UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) has updated their travel advice to the Philippines.

“On Monday 22 April at around 5pm local time a 6.3 magnitude earthquake struck northeastern Luzon. You should follow the advice of local security authorities and monitor local media reports,” the FCO said.

The Pacific 'Ring of Fire' is a horse-shoe shaped band of volcanoes and fault lines circling the edges of the Pacific Ocean.

The volcanic zone is home to 452 volcanoes and has a series of oceanic trenches, volcanic arcs, volcanic belts, and tectonic plate movements, which make it extremely prone to earthquakes and tsunamis.
