We made a series of elevation maps of Argentina.

The first shows the geological gradient starting with deep green and ending with the highest point on dark brown.

Just saw the trailer for fox’s show 9-1-1

It showed a tsunami that towered over the Santa Monica pier and emergency sirens only going on when the wave was about to hit.

Now I looked up the shows description...

So it draws from real life high pressure experiences but when is there ever going to be a wave that big? The tsunami in the Indian Ocean reached heights of 100ft and that was caused by a 9.1 earthquake. While tsunamis do travel quickly for one to be that size wouldn’t there have had to be an earthquake fairly close to Southern California and so there shouldn’t be that many people on the beach especially with how many people are watching for tectonic activity and tsunami bouys will report a tsunami coming if the earthquake was too far too feel.

A topographical map of Santa Monica shows the cliffs are a little over 100ft high.

Map source: http://www.floodmap.net/Elevation/ElevationMap/?gi=5393212

While the marina and Venice will suffer severe damage, the upslope of Santa Monica after the cliffs will likely severely limit the damage of a tsunami impact. I didn’t even mention the islands that are off the shore which will take away some of the tsunami’s energy

I guess they went with the shock factor for this one instead of thinking if a tsunami of that size is something could occur in that area
