I've read quite a bit about the La Palma volcano in the Canary Islands triggering a "mega-tsunami". From what I've read this is a virtually certainty in the next 2000 years. Apparently an eruption 60+ years ago "loosened" a massive piece of rock from the side of the mountain creating a 6 foot "crack" as it moved towards the Atlantic ocean. If and when this 20+ mile piece of rock collapses into the ocean, a maga-tsunami would be generated that could be up to to 1000 feet high, moving across the Atlantic at 500 mph and bringing destruction to the entire east coast of the US, as well as Cuba, the Bahamas and the entire Atlantic Ovean region. This would absolutely dwarf the Indonesia tsunami, and millions could be killed.

It would take kilotons of explosives - and I think someone would notice such activity sooner or later.

There would be warning before the tsunami hit, enough time to get inland. Thousands would be caught, but most would get away. Structures on the coast would be eliminated which would be expensive but replaceable.

I can just see that...."Hey, you there, what are you doing?"

Who, me?

Nothing.
