Is it better to hide under furniture or next to furniture during an earthquake?

If it's not safe, to lie down or lie on one side of the furniture, this is the life-saving triangle. If something hits the furniture, it will be held up by the furniture, and there is exactly a triangular gap, and it is dangerous for the furniture to collapse under the furniture. This is the most basic common sense.

If it were me, I would rule out a first

Because the bathroom is a very small space, even if it collapses, it will all be buried, and there will be a large triangular space to hide. >>>More

Because most of the walls of the bathroom are load-bearing walls, which are not easy to break, and the bathroom area is relatively small, the span of the floor slab is small, and the number of floor slabs is also small, so during an earthquake, the possibility of the floor slab on the top of the bathroom breaking down is smaller than that of the bedroom and living room with a large area. Therefore, the bathroom is relatively safer.

There are many bathroom pipes, especially thick sewer pipes to support the role, and the space is small, after the wall collapses, a relatively large gap will be formed for people to hide, on the contrary, when the room space is large, the probability of the wall collapsing and hurting people is very large, so it is best to hide in the bathroom after the earthquake, and it is best not to go to the kitchen, because the kitchen has gas pipes and other accidents are prone to accidents! Or hide next to your bed, under a solid writing desk, etc., although the chance of earthquake is less, but the necessary self-help common sense must be remembered!!

When an earthquake strikes, it's best to take shelter in the bathroom. >>>More
