How does that Natural Disaster happen
Earthquake are usually caused when rock underground suddenly breaks along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the ground shake. Earthquake-like seismic waves can also be caused by explosions underground. These explosions may be set off to break rock while making tunnels for roads, subways, or mines. These explosions, however, don't cause very strong seismic waves. You may not feel them.
