A “small tsunami, with a wave height of less than eight inches” does not sound like much of a tsunami. But that certainly was a huge earthquake.

Sometimes the low wave tsunami that penetrates further inland can cause more damages than the big wave!

The scroll across the bottom on the video says that tsunami was as high as 4 meters.
