- Synopsis
- Imagine it is the middle of the night and you are fast asleep in bed. Suddenly you are jolted awake. Your heart races. The walls and floor are shaking. The bed is lifting into the air. Furniture is sliding. The glass in your window cracks and splinters. Your ears are deafened by crashes and bangs. The ground continues to shake. Outside, buildings crumble and roads split open. Bridges collapse and railway lines buckle. Gas and water pipes burst. There is no electricity and the phones are dead. Fires break out. Thick, black smoke makes it difficult to see and hard to breathe. What is happening? You are in the middle of an earthquake.
