"*Do not get in a doorway during an earthquake.* Get under a sturdy table ~~or get down next to something sturdy.~~

 ~~Rescuers often find still-alive people in what’s called the “triangle of life.” Debris will fall onto the sturdy object and create a triangle-shaped safe zone next to it.~~

Edit: this has apparently changed since I took CERT training. The common advice is to “drop cover and hold on.” Thank you to those who commented!

The doorway thing was only true way back in the day for adobe and brick construction."
