1. The size of those waves
give me the chills. Of all the kinds of destructive forces in the world, Tsunami have to be the ultimate worst. You can only avoid them by seeking higher ground, and only if that ground..is high enough.

3. And a "mega" tsunami.....
...wave can be over http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhNHeAFdsUw">100 feet.

- And one is expected to hit the eastern U.S. seaboard -- again, in the future.
