How cool is water? After an explosion breaks off a giant chunk of earth,
the resulting wave is not something you’d like to be inside of.
Tsunamis are caused by a couple of things: earthquakes, landslides, or
volcanic eruptions–basically, when a huge amount of water is displaced
by a huge amount of something else. This explosion and mini tsunami
(which is still very violent) is a great scale model for how a much
larger one might actually work.
