    A table won’t hold up when parts of the roof collapse on it.
    It’ll buckle and you’ll be crushed under it.
    A bathtub is a big bowl made out of a single piece of enameled steel, iron, polymer or fiberglass.
    Its shape won’t change if the roof collapses on top of it.
    Rescuers might have to free you but you’re less likely to get squished.

      Blows my mind that debris falling freely on your head is the option to choose over covering yourself with a hard shell because the roof is more likely to come down in a way where a strong U shape around you gives better survival chances
