Damn I’m not seeing 1600 ft. But something identical to that happened like in the 1950s

I mean I’m seeing more like 100 ft in the news, but around 1600 ft is possible it’s happened before

Keep in mind tho, the way they measure it is how high the water gets in the treeline, it’s not an actual wave like in Hawaii the size of the Empire State Building it’s the water just rushing ashore

Yeah, in the fjord where the landslide happened, the tree line was cleared a maximum of 1585 feet above water level. About 100 feet by the time it connected to another fjord. An entire island was completely stripped of vegetation
