Is this concept bed taking earthquake-safety to the next level? The fact is that an earthquake can happen at any time of day. Unfortunately, the reality is that many die trapped under the rubble of their own homes.
The featured beds (shown here via YouTube) show various earthquake-proof bed designs. The beds have strong metal structures that enclose when an earthquake strikes. In case of a building collapse the sleeper is safely confined within the box. Provisional food and water is stored beneath the bed.
Many seismologists argue that deaths as a result of an earthquake are an engineering problem. Is this the future of earthquake-safe furniture?
