I saw pic related somewhere here on 4chan.

Anyways, this scientist claims that if you detonate a megabomb underwater near a coast, you could create 1200 meter tsunamis that would flood the land near it.
Is he right?

Define "Meter"

The meter that is the basis of the metric system.

The distance the light travels in a vacuum during a 1/299792458 th of a second
I don't know for the wave, 1200 meters, it seems like an incredible volume of water

Could be possible, but isn't by far as destructive as he claims. Just dropping that bomb on New York would probably cause more damage.

No. There have been underwater bomb tests, no tsunami is caused.

If you put a bomb in water the fuse will go out

The earthquake that caused the tsunami of 2004 was 400 megatons strong. Thats around 4000 hiroshima bombs. Niw what do you think would cause more damage, 4000 hiroshima bombs or one tsunami the size of 2004?

>Moving that much water with that little energy
The meteor that killed the dinosaurs created a tsunami that was around 100 meters tall, and hit with an estimated force of over 200 gigatons of TNT.
