Earthquake? No problem! The Anti-EarthQuake Bed will keep you safe and sound!
A video concept for an earthquake-proof bed has been circulating the internet, however, it raises a lot of question and it is deeply weird..
It was 2010 when the anti earthquake bed idea was patented by Wang Wenxi, a 66 year old Chinese designer, who has been developing the bed since then.
According to Google search, there are no other information with regards to the development of the anti earthquake bed concept. It was only the references about his 2010 patent.
There are still no explanation on how a person could get out of it again. Thus, it quite depends whether your fear of an earthquake is greater than your fear over being buried alive unexpectedly. However, a 2012 YouTube video shows the real life version of Wenxi's concept though its origins were unclear.
Wondering how does it work? Well, during an earthquake, the mattresses of the bed will fold into a metal sarcophagus. This is, apparently, to save and protect the person sleeping if their home or the building they are in starts to crumble down.
It was a great idea but its design still raise numerous questions such as:
What will happen to the person if he/she is not exactly in the middle of the bed?
What will happen if there will be two or more people on the bed?
In the video. the emergency supplies are placed under the mattress. How would the person in the bed would able to get those?
The bed is most likely considered to be made out of steel, in terms of handling it, how heavy would these bed will be?
If the person who want this bed is living in an apartment or a condo unit, how would he/she get the heavy steeled bed to his room?
And lastly, how would someone get out of the bed?
The video concept of the anti earthquake bed didn't clearly explained the answers to these questions which is quite confusing.
