I mean a tsunami is just like a bigass wave that wipes shite out,right?

Or are they all just pussy shite like this one?

(not counting the one that covered up the moon like a gillion years ago. That shite sounded crazy)

No. A tsunami is a wave that continues and continues and continues. Think of it like a storm surge that doesn't stop for a long time and not like it's just a wave.

I mean yeah, it's just the effect of displacement under water, right? I guess I figured it would be one short event, not One that lasts hours, I guess it depends on aftershocks and what not and the original seismic quake.

Tsunami's - Lot's of factors not the least would be amount of energy involved, initiation event including depth of earthquake or if slide, and type of coastline.

It depends a lot more on the shape of the sea bottom just offshore. When in deep water, the tsunami is not that tall but spread out. When it gets close to shore, if the seafloor is shaped the right way with a gradual slope to it, the leading edge slows down and the water piles up higher and higher.

I just posted something on poli that tied to tsunamis, etc and was told to "get behind thee Satan"

Keep shouting down the messengers and hear whatever pleases you like the fallen kings of old shutting down prophets that bring undesirable info. What a waste
