Many people believe that earthquake preparedness can actually save their life in case such a natural disaster happens. While this may contain a nugget of truth, on the other hand, you can be as prepared as possible and still get killed, because in case of an earthquake everything is unpredictable on smaller scale. Even if you are sure your building won’t collapse, there’s always a danger that you are nearby a window that breaks and the shattered glass kills you or injures you badly. So, take preparedness and survival kits with a grain of salt: they are good, there’s no doubt about that, but they are not ubiquitous life savers.
