The Earth can be compared to an apple - the Earth's crustin comparison to Earth is as thin as is the outer covering of an apple compared to an apple. It is made up of parts like a human skull and the float/buoy over the inner molten magma so the parts called tectonic plates can slide when the collide at 180 degrees mountains are formed. As and when some interlock is there, the plates keep on applying sliding or pulling or pushing force and when the force becomes large enough the interlock gives away and a shock wave called earthquake is generated which can also be associated with exlpulsion of magma called volcanic eruption

2) After the earthquake check for and damage on you and then family after you get outside to a place you and your family have planed to meet at

3) Get yourself there and wait for you family.

4)If anything has made an escape to get out then wait for a offfical to get you out.

5) If in a car then pull over and put on the parking break and wait for the earthquake to be over, if anything falls on your car you are too stop what you are too wait till someone get it off of your car.
