@pbsterra: Authorities have recommended the “Duck n’ Cover” safety practice for decades, going as far back as the Cold War. However, Geologist Chris Goldfinger has a different take. So, what would you do in this situation? Let us know in the comments! #pbs #earthquake #science
I know they say ‘drop, cover, and hold on’—but when a 7.7 earthquake hits and the condo starts shaking like crazy, ain’t nobody got time for that 😭 If you can run, run for your life! Survival mode > textbook rules lol.

I was in SF ‘89 quake. People reacted in sheer panic to get out of the building-running parallel to large and flexing windows. 🫣I stayed near my desk in my cubicle😳.
