minus-squareOceanSoap@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoI’ve been in tall buildings during an earthquake before, and yeah, it’s scary. But if you look into how buildings are fashioned to withstand earthquakes, the swaying is built-in. You want that sway, basically. And you were in probably one of the safest cities to have an earthquake when in a building ever. Still, scary!!
minus-squaremrbubblesort@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoYeah, in the back of my mind I knew I was probably in one of the safest places I could be, but the lizard brain in me couldn’t help but scream “DANGER”
