Can you die in an earthquake?

Answer 1

If you stand near a building then it can crush you to death. If you stand near anything during an earthquake it might fall and hurt you or part of a building might fall off and hurt you.Most injuries caused by earthquakes result from things falling down and hitting someone; in a large earthquake it is not uncommon for entire buildings to collapse, and if people are inside those buildings when they collapse, the structural material of the building (bricks, cement, wooden beams, etc.) will fall on top of those people and injure them. Since earthquakes can open up large crevices in the earth, people sometimes fall into those as well. Tsunamis are a special case. Earthquakes can cause huge ocean waves called tsunamis, which can then strike people, cars, buildings, etc. with great force, and often will cause people to be washed out to sea where they may drown. Then there is damage to gas lines, power lines, or other infrastructure, which can result in fires or other damage.
