Ryan, do you perhaps mean the aftermath of an earthquake? Because if anyone's actually had advance warning of one so that they could go witness it, I haven't heard about that (and would be interested in the details.) BTW, I also saw a tsunami documentary that dealt with Lituya Bay -- may well have been the same documentary you saw. I didn't remember the name either. ERNR whose only use of the geology degree in recent memory consisted of explaining tsunamis to a small son.
