‘I felt the building was going to collapse’
People in Lucknow, India, were terrified when a 6.2 magnitude earthquake struck. High-rise buildings felt the effects more intensely, causing panic and evacuations. Fortunately, no major damage or casualties were reported. Some individuals shared their harrowing experiences, while others didn't even feel the tremors. Social media users made light of the situation. Experts reassured that tall buildings are not necessarily more vulnerable to collapse and that the safety of a building depends on various factors. It remains a concern as Lucknow has experienced similar tremors before.
