When disaster strikes, it's always good to have a plan—at the very least to avoid the fate of the above-listed movie protagonists. Lara Vivoli, who holds a Master's in Emergency Management, says fictional portrayals of disasters often sensationalize them to the extent that people tend to panic more when one does occur.
