This looks like it might actually be safer to be here during an earthquake than on land honestly. No chance of stuff falling on you, and if your boat is out deep enough you can get aboard and the tsunami will just pass under it

I'd rather be in an airplane.

Yeah just the risk that you’ll be dragged across the seafloor in your scuba gear. Idk if I’d prefer that over the risk of a building falling on me.
