The biggest earthquake known in historical times occurred on 22 May 1960 in Chile, with a magnitude Mw of 9.5. It occurred because of a rupture in the Earth's crust that extended horizontally about 1000 km along the coast of South America; in some places this quake caused vertical uplifts as large as six meters. The second biggest earthquake known, with a magnitude of 9.2, occurred in Alaska on 27 March 1964; it had a rupture length of 800 km, and caused as much as 11 meters of uplift.
