A major 6.2 magnitude earthquake hit Tarapaca, Chile, on Monday, May 14, 2012, at 10:00:39 UTC, at a depth of 98.3 km (61.1 mi). 

Throughout history, there have never been as many major earthquakes with such frequency on record, as we have seen within the last year and a-half. 

Jesus said these signs would appear before He returns, "Nation will rise against nation, kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, pestilences and earthquakes in various places" Matthew 24:7.  You may have noticed that the frequent major earthquakes throughout the world are hitting various places. 
This is exactly what Jesus said would happen.  The graph below shows the drastic increase in earthquake activity between 2010 and 2011 (look closely at the 2011 increase on the graph near the right border, as opposed to the level of earthquakes recorded in 2010 and prior).
