The will to live - How to survive beneath the rubble?

Welcome back to our survival series. In this article, we will focus on one of the most terrifying situations imaginable: being trapped under the rubble of a collapsed building. This is a frightening and dangerous life-and-death situation where you do not know how long you will be stuck. While rescue operations usually begin right after a disaster like an earthquake, sometimes help takes much longer to arrive. Surviving beneath the ruins requires more than just luck; it requires a strong will to live and a calm approach to a very chaotic environment. This guide will walk you through exactly what to do to protect yourself, signal for help, and stay alive until rescuers can reach you.
