[QUOTE="6pack, post: 1484034, member: 1119"] is running down a building the right thing to do during an earthquake? i noticed that people just scramble downstairs through lifts or stairs shouting "earthquake". i thought i had learnt that sitting under a table was wisest thing to do first. The reason was that if it was a high intensity quake, chance of being alive is high under a table, rather than being caught unawares by falling stairs or getting hit by concrete debris. Maybe people running down reason that its safer to be outside, rather than be trapped in a small space under tons of concrete in a fallen building waiting for people to get them out. wonder what is the right procedure.
