Could We Survive A Mega Tsunami?

Today on Far Far Future Horizons we explore the question Could We Survive A Mega Tsunami?

This BBC Two documentary starts with a horrific scenario a kilometre high tidal wave, travelling at the speed of a jet aircraft, and heading for us. 

The destructive effects of tsunamis have been all too evident in recent years, with one on Boxing Day (December 26^th)  2004 killing around 250,000 people in southern Asia and another striking Japan on March 11^th, 2011 and nearly bringing this nation close to the edge of a nuclear catastrophe. 

This documentary uses the latest scientific modelling to present a minute-by-minute account of what might happen if there was a mega-tsunami in the Atlantic, and what would it do to cities including Casablanca, Lisbon, London and New York.
