Remind me to show this to a client whenever they complain about the seismic bracing system I put on their indoor chemical storage tanks.

Immediately though of Passengers

OK I actually kind of chuckled at that.

Is the safest place to be during an earthquake?

Whoa, that's not what I expected

Pretty good demonstration of a tsunami, too.

holy shit, thats some supercool nightmare fuel.

What is the official "worst case scenario" book esque thing to do in this situation?

My house creaked from an earthquake that was 100 miles away once. Apartment over a detached garage, I'm pretty sure I'm going to die here.

World's smallest tsunami.

Hey that actually sounds like a goo-- NEVERMIND!

That perfectly describes how I experienced this post.

I feel for the first time that I understand what an earthquake must feel like. Movies suck at portraying them!
matyles
the most surprising thing about them is you can hear the bedrock grinding

That looks waaaaay bigger than the biggest california quake I've been through, but you're exactly right. Like being at sea.

TBH that's probably the safest place to be during an earthquake.
killerswan
Depends on whether there's a glass ceiling or wall nearby, maybe?
bobthebuilder707
You'd probably be safer in another place not experiencing the earthquake
SuckAnElf
I dunno elementary school drills taught me under a tiny desk is tinge safest place. Logically speaking I think an empty field would be.

Tinge? Really autocorrect? That was supposed to read "the"

Infinity pool, at the top of a building, during an earthquake? Annndd... now I have a brand new phobia, thanks.

I believe I can fly

Now you see how tsunami's happen. Imagine the ocean being thrown around instead of a pool.
matyles
where I live tsunamis are possible but rarely form, even after a massive quake offshore. We had something like 6.4 not long ago
IllegalDuckling
That is actually really damn educational.
tooomanysteves
Agreed

Well, that's terrifying

Yes, thank @OP, my nightmares have been getting kind of repetetive...ugh...+1

Ya surprisingly. I bet you're generally safer in the pool than in a building though. Maybe not for an indoor pool though.

Seems like a day at a beach to me. I'd rather be in this than in a building during an earthquake

There's a scene in Passengers where the artificial gravity disappears while JLaw is in the pool.Almost felt like I was starting to suffocate

This is fucking gold. Doubt many will get it but I did and I love it. Thank you

Height of his career. Only came back a few years ago when his son convinced him making music has nothing to do with his faith

Looks scary but idk, relatively safe place to be in the event of an earthquake, so long as you keep your head above water

Sooooo... Little risk of shark attack?
Hyero
Tsunami sharks could be a possibility.

Unless the Earth swallows you whole.

Naaaaah debris knocking you unconscious=drowning. I'd much rather take extra bruises and lower drowning risk.

What about when the giant crevices open up at the bottom and you get sucked down into the abyss .

So it's better to be in the middle of the ocean! Thanks
switters810
Yes. If you were in the middle of the ocean on a boat, a tsunami wave *might* slosh the drink in your glass.

Unless it's a hell of a tsunami. But by that point you may not want to make it back to land anyways.
adunazon
Yeah, actually. The tsunami waves will roll right underneath you!
