THE WORLD
DISASTERS
Imagine looking out to sea from a sunny beach. Something is wrong. The tide is going out - and not coming back. All the way to the horizon, the sea floor is revealed. Fish flop helplessly, boats are stranded. and now comes the great wave. With a thunderous, deafening roar, it rears u like a moving mountain, crashing ashore with unimaginable force.
An eruption on Santorini, 130 km to the north, caused the tsunami. Crete stood directly in the way of the huge waves that deluged coasts across the Mediterranean.
