Survivors of a deadly earthquake in Indonesia described the ground moving like a trampoline, NDTV reports. The account captures the force of the tremor, though the report provided no casualty figures or details about the quake’s location and magnitude. Indonesia experiences frequent earthquakes because it lies on the Pacific Ring of Fire, an arc of intense seismic activity that stretches from Japan through Southeast Asia and across the Pacific. The region’s tectonic setting makes earthquakes a recurring danger, but the available report does not establish the full scale of this event.
