That's more like a baby rogue wave. Tsunamis don't cause much surface disturbance while they're at sea.

Why

does the boat not have any jiggly bewbs at the prow?
That would be kinda hot.

Not Tsunami

If that was a tsunami, then the boat would have raised up to a crest and then stayed at that height for a little while.

tsunami_at_sea

That video was shown on tv; it was filmed of a japanese boat coast guard boat. They launched an tsunami alert due to this footage.

not tsunami

I must agree with previous posters that this is not a tsunami. tsunamis have huge wavelengths, and at sea are unnoticeable. The only way you would detect one is if you were measuring the depth of the ocean for the entire period that the tsunami passed. you would notice an increase in depth of several meters, and then a decrease back to the normal state over the course of several minutes.

Tsunamis are never breaking waves, notice this one is nearly breaking. It could very well be a small rouge wave, as a previous poster mentioned.

its a tsunami

The wave gets bigger as the sea floor shallows.
Watch the discovery channel and learn about mega-thrust earthquakes cuddy.
