Trust me, yu dn’t want t get caught under a tsunami! Tsunamis are ne f the wrld’s mst pwerful natural frces. They can cause huge amunts f damage.
But d yu knw exactly what a tsunami is? They are huge, pwerful waves in the cean that grw as they reach the shre. Mst tsunamis are actually caused by earthquakes.

The wave was ver 1, 720 feet tall, and it wiped ut trees, vegetatin, and everything else in its way.
As frightening as tsunamis can be, yu dn’t need t wrry t much abut them. They dn’t happen that ften. Only abut tw tsunamis happen every year. And it is said that serius, really damaging tsunamis nly happen abut every fifteen years. S dn’t wrry.
