National Geographic - Tsunami: Killer Wave

Movie / Show Details

National Geographic’s 2005 documentary examines tsunamis, the undersea earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that trigger them, and their capacity to travel across oceans at speeds exceeding 500 miles per hour. The film focuses on the December 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami and explores why these massive waves remain among nature’s least understood and most dangerous forces. Through interviews with leading scientists and accounts from survivors, the documentary reveals the financial, physical, and emotional devastation tsunamis inflict on coastal communities and profiles ongoing efforts to better predict and prepare for future events.
