A
terrible thing happened on December 26. A tsunami formed because of the
movement of the Australian plate and the Asian plate collided creating a 9.0
earthquake. The sea floor lifted about ten feet high! The impact created waves
that could travel 500 miles per hour as fast as a jet plane! As the tsunami
begins to feel the bottom of the ocean it got bigger. The waves were about 50
feet high as big as a ten story building! The most effected areas were Indonesia,
Thousands of people are dead,
and some are still missing. One woman watched here daughter being
washed away from her hands. Helpers are coming in bring supplies for the
survivors. What would you do in middle of a tsunami?
