A breaking wave (One of the first/largest waves in a tsunami), can generate a force equivalent to the trust of a space rocket's main engines

How do they affect us?
Tsunamis affect us by tearing down buildings and drowning thousands or even millions of people-Tsunamis cause a lot of destruction throughout the world
Tsunamis can ruin cities and towns, causing a large amount of destruction. This destruction may cause fear amounting to a great extent, causing the inhabitants of these cities to flee or move away
If there are any boats on the waters that a tsunami hits, those boats will be wrecked, and the people in those boats will most likely be killed.
