A 3 - 4 foot wave doesn't sound like much, but it is on a very flat island. Video at the link.
I was there a couple of times in the late 90s and early 2000s. Pretty flat. LOTS of very expensive radar installations there in a lot of different bands.
I remember this in a James Bond movie where the bad guys built a tsunami machine. I hope they catch them.

Just imagine if this was the Baltic Sea’s freezing water. As the saying goes, it can always be worse.
Those two standing on the other side of the door had to be seriously injured. Prayers up.
Lots of beards and long hair in that Army dining facility.
Gonna be eating MREs for a while.
That’s hardly any height atoll.
Within the past few weeks there was a spike in Radioactive reading around the Marshall Islands and specifically Kwadjalene
They can wash away for all I care. Kwajalein, Roi-Namur, Wake Island, Johnston Atoll, Midway, Iwo Jima etc. Huge numbers of very important and historic battlefields of the Pacific War are off limits to anyone except military or Fish and Wildlife hippies. By all looks they will remain forbidden forever.
Sad that the men who fought there cannot be commemorated and people cannot walk their battlefields.
But I guess I should keep in mind that Government is the only thing that matters and their selfish needs always come first.
OMG do all the women on that island have duck lips?
sheesh
Rogue waves do exist. I’ve seen them not very far offshore of the Texas coast.
