Depends on where you are and how strong the earthquake is. If you are inside and the earthquake is a 5 or 6 everything shakes and moves around you. If it is a rolling earthquake the ground seems to roll, but if it is shifting it goes up and down. Things like plants swing, pool water splashes out of the pool, books move, and things fall to the floor. In a car, if it is moving, you don't feel it. If stopped the car shakes a bit. Things happen pretty fast in an earthquake and it isn't like watching one in a movie. The thing to be careful of something hitting you on the head or a building falling in around you. Get under a table or in a doorway when it is going on and then go outside to a area way from buildings when it is done.
