Damage from earthquakes include collapsed buildings, fallen telephone poles & trees, fires, gas leaks, disruption of water/sewer lines, damage to infrastructure (roads, highways, and bridges), etc. Pulled/broken power lines can cause power outages and electrical fires.

Falling debris and wreckage can damage cars, property, humans, and animals alike.

Damage to homes include broken Windows, glass and mirrors in addition to gas or electrical fires. Homes and buildings can become completely destroyed or unsafe to live in causing large numbers of people to become homeless overnight.

Large earthquakes at sea can cause tsunamis which in turn can cause great damage to ships at sea and to the land if it hits ground.
