Eighteen Seconds of Terror One of the most terrifying incidents that people could experience is surviving the experience of an earthquake. In fact, few days ago I was in home watching TV with my wife and mother in law when suddenly we felt a strange buzzing noise and fast shaking that scared us. Daily we are invaded for lots of information about what to do in the case of a disaster; moreover, I had previous experiences about earthquakes, but we just staid there looking our faces without reaction; after the fright, I changed the TV stations to search for information about what have happened and we was worried because we didn’t knew if it would come after shocks which probably could be stronger. The last bay area’s earthquake had as epicenter the piedmont area just a few blocks from west Oakland where I live and only eight miles deep from the superficies, which is very close in term of seismology; Moreover, we know that we live in a time’s bomb or potentially dangerous seismic area and it is something that all people wait for a big one which could causes destruction.
