>> ?EXTRACT FROM DOUG COPP'S ARTICLE ON THE: 'TRIANGLE OF LIFE'
>>
>> My name is Doug Copp. I am the Rescue Chief and Disaster Manager of the
>> American Rescue Team International (ARTI), the world's most experienced
>> rescue team. The information in this article will save lives in an
>> earthquake.
>>
>> I have crawled inside 875 collapsed buildings, worked with rescue teams
> from
>> 60 countries, founded rescue teams in several countries, and I am a
>> member
>> of many rescue teams from many countries.
>>
>> I was the United Nations expert in Disaster Mitigation for two years. I
> have
>> worked at every major disaster in the world since 1985, except for
>> simultaneous disasters.
>>
>> The first building I ever crawled inside of was a school in Mexico City
>> during the 1985 earthquake. Every child was under its desk. Every child
> was
>> crushed to the thickness of their bones. They could have survived by
>> lying
>> down next to their desks in the aisles. It was obscene, unnecessary and I
>> wondered why the children were not in the aisles. I didn't at the time
> know
>> that the children were told to hide under something. I am amazed that
>> even
>> today schools are still using the ?Duck and Cover? instructions- telling
> the
>> children to squat under their desks with their heads bowed and covered
> with
>> their hands. This was the technique used in the Mexico City school.
>>
>> Simply stated, when buildings collapse, the weight of the ceilings
>> falling
>> upon the objects or furniture inside crushes these objects, leaving a
> space
>> or void next to them. This space is what I call the 'triangle of life'.
> The
>> larger the object, the stronger, the less it will compact. The less the
>> object compacts, the larger the void, the greater the probability that
>> the
>> person who is using this void for safety will not be injured. The next
> time
>> you watch collapsed buildings, on television, count the 'triangles' you
> see
>> formed. They are everywhere. It is the most common shape, you will see,
>> in
> a
>> collapsed building.
>>
>> TIPS FOR EARTHQUAKE SAFETY
>>
>> 1) Almost everyone who simply 'ducks and covers' when buildings collapse
> ARE
>> CRUSHED TO DEATH.
>>
>> People who get under objects, like desks or cars, are crushed.
>>
>> 2) Cats, dogs and babies often naturally curl up in the fetal position.
> You
>> should too in an earthquake. It is a natural safety/survival instinct.
> That
>> position helps you survive in a smaller void. Get next to an object, next
> to
>> a sofa, next to a large bulky object that will compress slightly but
>> leave
> a
>> void next to it.
>>
>> 3) Wooden buildings are the safest type of construction to be in during
>> an
>> earthquake. Wood is flexible and moves with the force of the earthquake.
> If
>> the wooden building does collapse, large survival voids are created.
>> Also,
>> the wooden building has less concentrated, crushing weight. Brick
> buildings
>> will break into individual bricks. Bricks will cause many injuries but
> less
>> squashed bodies than concrete slabs. Concrete slab buildings are the most
>> dangerous during an earthquake.
>>
>> 4) If you are in bed during the night and an earthquake occurs, simply
> roll
>> off the bed. A safe void will exist around the bed. Hotels can achieve a
>> much greater survival rate in earthquakes, simply by posting a sign on
>> the
>> back of the door of every room telling occupants to lie down on the
>> floor,
>> next to the bottom of the bed during an earthquake.
>>
>> 5) If an earthquake happens and you cannot easily escape by getting out
> the
>> door or window, then lie down and curl up in the fetal position next to a
>> sofa, or large chair.
>>
>> 6) Almost everyone who gets under a doorway when buildings collapse is
>> killed. How? If you stand under a doorway and the doorjamb falls forward
> or
>> backward you will be crushed by the ceiling above. If the door jam falls
>> sideways you will be cut in half by the doorway. In either case, you will
> be
>> killed!
>>
>> 7) Never go to the stairs. The stairs have a different 'moment of
> frequency
>> (they swing separately from the main part of the building). The stairs
>> and
>> remainder of the building continuously bump into each other until
> structural
>> failure of the stairs takes place. The people who get on stairs before
> they
>> fail are chopped up by the stair treads ? horribly mutilated. Even if the
>> building doesn't collapse, stay away from the stairs. The stairs are a
>> likely part of the building to be damaged. Even if the stairs are not
>> collapsed by the earthquake, they may collapse later when overloaded by
>> fleeing people. They should always be checked for safety, even when the
> rest
>> of the building is not damaged.
>>
>> 8) Get Near the Outer Walls Of Buildings Or Outside Of Them If Possible.
>>
>> It is much better to be near the outside of the building rather than the
>> interior. The farther inside you are from the outside perimeter of the
>> building the greater the probability that your escape route will be
> blocked.
>>
>> 9) People inside of their vehicles are crushed when the road above falls
> in
>> an earthquake and crushes their vehicles; which is exactly what happened
>> with the slabs between the decks of the Nimitz Freeway. The victims of
>> the
>> San Francisco earthquake all stayed inside of their vehicles. They were
> all
>> killed. They could have easily survived by getting out and lying in the
>> fetal position next to their vehicles. Everyone killed would have
>> survived
>> if they had been able to get out of their cars and sit or lie next to
> them.
>> All the crushed cars had voids 3 feet high next to them, except for the
> cars
>> that had columns fall directly across them.
>>
>> 10) I discovered, while crawling inside of collapsed newspaper offices
>> and
>> other offices with a lot of paper, that paper does not compact. Large
> voids
>> are found surrounding stacks of paper.
>>
>> In 1996 we made a film, which proved my survival methodology to be
> correct.
>> The Turkish Federal Government, City of Istanbul , University of Istanbul
>> Case Productions and ARTI cooperated to film this practical, scientific
>> test. We collapsed a school and a home with 20 mannequins inside. Ten
>> mannequins did 'duck and cover,' and ten mannequins I used in my
>> 'triangle
>> of life' survival method. After the simulated earthquake collapse we
> crawled
>> through the rubble and entered the building to film and document the
>> results.
>>
>> The film, in which I practiced my survival techniques under directly
>> observable, scientific conditions, relevant to building collapse, showed
>> there would have been zero percent survival for those doing duck and
> cover.
>>
>> There would likely have been 100 percent survivability for people using
>> my
>> method of the 'triangle of life.' This film has been seen by millions of
>> viewers on television in Turkey and the rest of Europe , and it was seen
> in
>> the USA , Canada and Latin America on the TV program Real TV.
>>
>> Spread the word and save someone's life...
