If one wants to know what can be compared to the earth quake according to me in my unserstanding capacity it is the nuclear bomb blast & this is justified by the inncident which happened in Nagasaki in Japan late in 1940s',this was to much,it shook the erthly surface .The NUCLEAR BOMB BLAST is the only thing one can compare to the earth quake.Muti-staged nuclear bomb is the good example,it is equvalent to 50million metric tons of TNT,it was built in only fifteen weeks by of of the engineers known as IVAN in USSR,This was a very powerful weapon which one can compare to the earth quake.This completed weapon weighed 27 metric-tons, the people living around the areas of Novaya Zemlya those day can justify this to you about it comparison with the earth quake.

"The ground shook like a giantβs footsteps": This is a simile comparing the earthquake's intensity to the heavy steps of a giant. "The city trembled in fear": Personification is used here to give the city human-like emotions of fear in response to the earthquake. "Buildings crumbled like sandcastles": This is a simile comparing the way buildings collapsed during the earthquake to how easily sandcastles can be destroyed on the beach.
