The mass fell three thousand feet into the head of the fjord and displaced water that ran up the opposite slope to 1,720 feet the highest tsunami runup ever recorded. This film reconstructs the physics of the event, the three fishing boats caught inside the bay that night, the survey work that made the trimline the world's benchmark for megatsunami runup, and the modern monitoring sites where geologists are watching for the next one.CHAPTERS00:00 The Wave and the Trimline01:05 Why This Was Not a Normal Tsunami02:05 Three Boats Inside the Bay03:35 Lituya Bay's Geography04:30 The Last Calm Evening06:10 The Fairweather Fault Earthquake07:22 The Physics Problem09:08 Don Miller's USGS Survey11:00 The Mountain Falls Into Gilbert Inlet13:26 Vajont and Other Megatsunamis15:18 What the Captains Saw17:50 The Sunmore Disappears19:23 The Trimline Today23:24 Barry Arm and Modern Risk26:09 The Warning Written in the MountainsPEER-REVIEWED SOURCESMiller, D.J.
