I can't be the only person who is terrified of earthquakes. I feel like there is no escape. If you happen to be where an earthquake strikes, you're at the mercy of the ground below you and the structures around you.

I've been lucky not to be around when an earthquake strikes but that's not to say they don't happen right here in our backyard.

An earthquake strikes Idaho over the weekend

According to Michigan Tech University, a magnitude range between 2.5 and 5.4 is "often felt, but only causes minor damage."
