I'm pretty sure that is fake. Look at the building closest to the ocean twards the top of the picture. It is about 20-25 stories tall. That is ATLEAST 200 feet tall. I have not heard of the Tsunami being any more that 30 feet or so. Certainly have not heard anything in the 200-250 foot range.

It's a fake. Schnitt ( http://www.schnittshow.com ) had an article on it last week, as well as several other fake tsunami photos.

I saw that show too! The one in Alaska was 450'+ high though and was caused by a landslide. A guy and his son rode the wave inland on their boat...and back out into the bay...and lived to tell about it
