@ridgelenny: There is actually a bit of controversy on how exactly the wave should be measured. As stated in the video scientists reached that figure by measuring run-up height. Others may argue this does not depict the wave’s true height. But either way, for water to reach 1720ft up a sheer mountainside that is an absolute massive amount of water moving in that bay 😵‍💫 #surfing #bigwaves

"That's not a wave, it's a tsunami" - Y'all are gonna be mind blown when you find out that the word tsunami literally translates as "harbor wave" in English and that the definition of a tsunami is "a long high sea WAVE caused by the displacement of a large volume of water".

that's not a wave m8 , that's a natural cataclysm, the biggest natural wave ever recorded in the Ocean was in the TASMAN SEA , southern Australia

the same thing happened in Greenland in an uninhabited bay in September 2023. the wave was so big it could be measured seismically for 9 days! this was a 200 meter wave

524m is the run-up height (inland height), not the wave height. The wave was about 272m in amplitude

My dad told me about this not to long ago. When he was in the Coast Guard, he was flying over Lituya bay. He said he was pretty young and had last joined and when they were over the mountains there were some with no trees or any vegetation on them at all. He then asked what the reasoning was, and the head pilot told him about this. Again, mountains were basically debarked of all vegetation 1,000+ feet up the side. He said it looked like someone just went through with a giant eraser and just cleared everything. I just thought I would share that when I saw the first few seconds of this.
