Five Facts - Tsunamis

The video presents five key facts about tsunamis. Tsunamis are massive waves caused by natural events like volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and landslides. They consist of multiple waves, known as a wave train, and the first wave is not the strongest. Tsunamis cause rapid tide changes, making the water recede quickly before returning with force. These waves can reach heights of up to 100 feet, much taller than normal waves. Tsunamis travel at speeds up to 600 miles per hour, affecting multiple countries simultaneously. Despite their size, tsunamis are not surfable due to their wall-like structure.
