Tsunami visualization

the entire mountain swells which means that the outer slopes get steeper they are probably a succession of small earthquakes and then maybe a big earthquake that shakes loose this very steep western flank of the volcano almost 1,500 cubic kilometers of Earth and rock plummet into the sea I'll be back the lamb displaces a massive amount of water the ocean rushes back to fill the giant gap from this cataclysmic disturbance emerges the tsunami heading directly for Honolulu estimated time to impact 30 minutes this is the direction that a big tsunami would come from from from the Big Island the wave first becomes visible as it stands and breaks on a shallow Bank 40 kilometers southeast of Honolulu we'd see the sea rear up in front of you that would be huge it would rise up above you the size of a building the size of a 10-story building surging inland at up to 70 km/h the tsunami slams Honolulu because the tsunamis energy stretches down to the ocean floor this wave is not clean water it's filled with sand coral of water penetrates 16 kilometers inland before being sucked back out to sea in a lethal maelstrom of wreckage it annihilates nearly everyone and everything in its path you
