triangle of life
Meanings
noun
- A space next to a solid object, which (according to a disputed theory) a person should occupy in order to reduce the risk of injury inside a collapsing building, e.g. during earthquake. The crushing of the solid object is said to form a slope that protects the nearby space in the manner of a roof.
