I'm being slightly lazy again, but with good reason. It's not often that you see footage of a tsunami being generated. Though the quality isn't great, the movies on this page are impressive. My IE5 was able to run these AVI format movies with Windows Media Player.

Click on the images to get the movies.

Couldn't the photog afford a tripod, or at least hand the camcorder to a sober friend?

Otherwise, it's good footage of an unusual sight.
