How often does a 7.5 earthquake occur though??? A volcano can erupt at any given time.

I disagree with Levi because earthquakes can't happen just anywhere, they need to be by a plate boundary. If one happens where there isn't a plate boundary it will not destroy anything.

We all know which is more dangerous, obviously a volcano. Volcanoes let out a huge explosion, that shoots out magma, ash, and poisonous gas like CO2. All of these things can kill you very quickly. Yes, some might say that you could run away from lava. I am here to tell you wrong, lava can travel as fast as 60 mph! Name one person that can run that fast. That's not all either! Just at Mt. St. Helen's, the ash traveled 390 square kilometers!!! If you are three states away you could still get hit!!! http://volcano.oregonstate.edu http://www.sveurop.org/
