Question

If an asteroid struck in the Pacific, could you surf the resulting tsunami?

Answer 1

'Oh look at me, I am an idiot riding the wave of a tsunami'

Seems I always say that when I see an extreme sportster just before they show him/her  getting  crumpled.

'Oh look at me, I am an idiot.............'

Newscaster: 'Then something goes terribly wrong as you see...........'

Answer 2

h**l yeah.

:)

gnar kill aye?

worth it, ha.

Answer 3

yep but ud need a jet ski and balls ov steel

Answer 4

Not unless the wave wrapped around to the Atlantic ocean.  So to answer your question no I could not.

Answer 5

No. Aside from the obvious fact that the impact would create additional problems other than a tsunami, tsunamis really aren't surfable. Traveling across the open ocean, the are not particularly high swells. The wave length is much larger the the amplitude, The wave does stack up until it gets alarmingly close to shore. By the time you could get into position to take off, the wave is passing the Walmart and Starbucks headed for the post office and the Holiday Inn.

Answer 6

Answer 7

Answer 8

Probably not. Too busy having my home destroyed.

Answer 9

i dont thinks so. but in the canadian artic and alaska, their are surfers who sit by glaciers, sometimes for hours, until a big chunk breaks off then they surf the resulting wave. these chunks can be quite a few tones, the wave i seen in the video by one was so fast moving the jet ski almost got hit by it.

Answer 11

You could in theory. All that is needed is a disturbance in the water to trigger this. The only real problem you'd run into is, if it was a ridiculously big asteroid, the resulting wave could be far larger than you care to surf and would likely kill you.

Answer 12

Yep. and I'd have fun fun fun til ms Nono takes my surfboard awayyyyyy.
