Actually he came out a while later acting fine. He's not been weird since. I know we have a high number of small tremors up through the East TN valley, so maybe he was picking up on that. I remember a couple years ago, maybe three, I was leaving a friend's house around midnight or 1, and I stepped outside into the strangest feeling. It felt like someone was watching me, and I kept looking up, expecting to see a huge UFO sitting over my head! I went home and directly to sleep, and I heard the next morning that we had a M2+ earthquake about an hour and a half after I felt that weird energy. If it was strong enough for ME to feel, it had to be STRONG!
Also about 6 years ago I was about to leave work one night and somebody posted on FB about the strange glow from the west end of town and they asked if maybe there was a huge fire somewhere. I immediately posted "Oh no, I hope it's not earthquake lights!" Same thing... except this was 23 hours later, we had a M2+ earthquake on the west end!
Way back in the early 80s I think, we had one centered near Kingsport that damaged houses and broke windows in a several mile radius. Still all small, but we're really not designed for a big one. A lot of people around here think it's just California and other countries' problem!
Oh, and the BOOMs from a few years back. I was outside for one of them, and it scared the poo out of me. I was certain a gas station had blown up or something it was so deafening loud. I was walking on pavement at the time, and it felt like I had been standing on a board that was hit from beneath with a sledge hammer. Reverberated up my legs to about my knees. But seismographs showed nothing in the area... yea right.
