Or they could run if they look funny walking fast.

[MrB]

Or they could learn to surf better...

[Bubba Ho-Tep]

Walk fast! Walk fast for your lives!

[MeshugeMikey]

and how many dollars did this study cost us??

[WayneS]

Well played!

[stephenjohnbanker]

lol

[NEMDF]

My first thought, as well.

[oh8eleven]

... a new study shows.
It took a "study" to figure this out? A "study" undoubtedly paid for via a taxpayer funded grant.

[1Old Pro]

Wood added the study provides the most detailed look yet at tsunami risks

I'd hate to see the previous reports if this one is the most thoughtful.

[JoeDetweiler]

But what about the people who are already on high ground...shouldn’t they walk slower?

[cripplecreek]

And if a frog had wings he wouldn’t bump his ass hoppin.

[WayneS]

I have GOT to get myself a federal grant to do an irrelevant study that draws stupidly obvious conclusions.

[ansel12]

Duck and cover would save even more lives in a nuclear blast, and people mock the heck out of it for some reason.

[Texan5]

Either this is from the Onion, or more of OUR money just went down the rabbit hole...

[demshateGod]

I recall videos of Japan's tsunami where people were just strolling up the hill, then got washed away.

[MeshugeMikey]

Id be terribly embarassed to be asking for gunds for any such sort of “study”.

how may have bikes? skateboards?

I’m certain that there are another several thousand dollars that could be... be spent here...

[JoeProBono]

[seawolf101]

And how much money did they spend trying to figure this out?

I figure these are the same people that spend millions trying to figure out why is ice cold and coffee hot.

[MrB]

Who remembers the surfer in “Lucifer’s Hammer”?

[WayneS]

The previous "most detailed" study concluded: "Hey, man. You know those tsunamis? Well, they suck, man!!"
