Good short video from people on the ground including a drone video.

This video talks about the tsunami that probably will not happen.

Not gonna happen. Most of that "science" in the video is 20 years old.
In an article written in 2013, earth scientist Professor Dave Pettley pointed out that the supposed mega-tsunami would only be created if all the rock fell into the sea at once – which never happens.
Pettley wrote: "Previous flank collapses have occurred as a series of distinct events rather than as a single coherent block. Each of these could have been able to generate a very large wave, and even a local tsunami.
‘However, they would not have generated a mega-tsunami. There is no reason to believe that a future event will behave differently, so this scare should be consigned to the garbage can once and for all."
