1 Tsunami A tsunami (plural: tsunamis or tsunami; from Japanese: 津波, lit. "harbor wave“)  is a series of water waves caused by the displacement of a large volume of a body of water, typically an ocean or a large lake. 

2 Creation 1. break 2. high tide 3. table uplift 4. focus earthquakes
5. low tide 6. table decline 7. amplitude 8. wavelength 9. overlapping primary waves 10. speed ​​reduction

3 Tsunami Causes Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions (including detonations of underwater nuclear devices), landslides, glacier calvings, meteorite impacts and other disturbances above or below water all have the potential to generate a tsunami.

4 Quake shakes the water and creates very strong waves
Quake shakes the water and creates very strong waves. Waves move very quickly. When the waves come  ashore  their height rises and reaches hundreds of feet. They are very strong and destroy everything in their way. When the wave enters shallow water, it slows down and its amplitude (height) increases.

5 Mega  Tsunami Mega - Tsunami is a huge ocean wave which has the size of hundreds of meters. It occurs when there is a sudden large displacement of water. There are three main causes of tsunamis: 1.Seismic activity 2.Submarine landslides 3.Cosmic Impacts

6 History of a Tsunami wave in the Bible
There are Biblical scholars who think that tsunami is a nature phenomenon which is described in Exodus. So, tsunami made it is possible for Israelis run away.
