Reading this on the toilet now wondering what my priorities would be if there was a quake in the next couple minutes.

discuss

order

That one is easy: You won’t shock anyone if you show up at the hospital with dirty underwear. You don’t want a trauma surgeon to say that they have to page the neuro-chir. Get under a doorframe, and put your pants up when your head is safe.

I thought the door frame thing was actually not a good idea? The mantra nowadays is drop, cover and hold on. Which might actually put you in a more precarious situation during said quake.

I can honestly say it happened to me. It's a very strange experience- lasted about 40 seconds. I'm about 300km from where the epicenter was. The main thing i worried about was the building collapsing, and my state of dress and 'activity' would become the stuff of memes and "did you hear about....?" stories.
