These two women are lucky to be rescued alive. They were rescued on July 8. They were buried alive in a landslide, which was caused by a 5.6 magnitude earthquake that struck Southern Guatemala. In the Philippines, there is also a series of earthquakes, but thankfully, in the latest quake, there were no casualties or damage. I am afraid of a quake. Watch the report via the YouTube link.

@marguicha also here in my country. Maybe that place where the women were rescued was beside an elevated place with weak soil.

@cacay1 We had an earthquake about ten years back. It was a mild one, but the whole town has come on roads leaving their houses.

@jstory07 they might not believe they are still alive or rescued. The rescue teams are doing their best.

No one could about the earthquake once it happens. Alertness and presence of mind is a must. In our country kids were participating in earthquake drill since our place is earthquake prone.
