Answer 1

524 meters

Answer 2

1,720 feet

Answer 3

Lituya bay which is located in the US state of Alaska recorded a mega tsunami measuring 524 meters or 1720 ft .For comparison, the Empire State Building is 1,472 (448m) feet high including its antenna spire.

Answer 4

The 524m everyone talks about is the highest recorded wave but there have almost certainly been higher; for example, the meteor that impacted the Gulf of Mexico would have created a massive wave.

More worringly, big, or bigger waves, may happen in the future. Recently, scientists have become concerned that one of the Canary islands may collapse (it is a hollow volcano) with a resulting tidal wave of around 900m

Answer 5

There have been tsunamis in the Alaska area that have been only about 50 feet high, but their speed as sent them up mountains as high as 1,720 feet.
