The game-winning touchdown pass from Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson to tight end Jimmy Graham did more than rattle the Houston Texans on Sunday.

Down 38-34, Wilson connected with Graham with less than 30 seconds left on the clock. When Graham crossed the goal line, the crowd at CenturyLink Field erupted. And the celebration measured on seismographs located throughout the stadium.

The following YouTube clip shows the moment Wilson connected with Graham:

There are six seismograph stations located at CenturyLink Field. They were set up after the great “Beast Quake” of Jan. 8, 2011, when former running back Marshawn Lynch broke nine tackles during a 67-yard touchdown run to defeat the New Orleans Saints in a Wild Card playoff game. The vibrations from thousands of excited fans were recorded about a block away.
