Recent devastating earthquakes around the globe have focused attention on the increasing risk of a large, catastrophic earthquake hitting Southern California. The southern end of the San Andreas fault is 300 years overdue for a major realignment and that means that everyone who lives in Southern California should know what do when the ground starts shaking.

This short film explains it in straight forward language what to do during an earthquake to maximize your chances of survival. Drop, cover, hold on! It's that simple. Now it's time to practice.

  • @DeyaIV I was in both Christchurch earthquakes recently, and too prior to our one in Feb 2011 had heard o the triangle - it was noted that the information about the triangle was a hoax. Your best bet is to fiond cover under something soild - alot of people were rescued in Christchurch from collapsed buildings and sufered no injuries from doing just that in other buildings where there was internal collapes of air con etc...

  • hmmm, I saw a different video that says if you cover under a table you'll get crashed underneath, so what is the best way to be safe during an earthquake? I trust TRIANGLES, not squares.
