How NOT to do an earthquake drill

This drill from the Philippines is sadly very representative of a lot of well-meaning but very poorly conceived efforts. No concept of the 4 rules: No talking, no running, no pushing, no going back. And get away from the building. (sigh) and led by Red Cross - we must do better than this!!

Comment by Justin Sharpe on January 29, 2009 at 16:23: Where are the teachers? Teachers should be leading their classes out or at least staying with them until the assembly area when registers are taken! An interesting video...I think the Red Cross need to give me a job! ;)
