For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.perhaps this is the sort of thing that killed the dinosaurs:
1 if the earth was swung out of axis so upsetting the dinosaurs habbitat or
2 the same thing on another planet happened and it collided with another planet causing the now known asteroidal belt and showering the solar system with big chunks.
so perhaps we better monitor outer space quakes hey ?
sorry if i got a bit off theme but this side reflection occured to me
a sobering thought, as tsunamis go this one was a tiddler , the ones that have been predicted for the future eg when about a third of the island of Las Palmas crashes into the atlantic and sends a tsunami about a 100metres high and at around 3-400kmp/h to the east coast of the usa, now thats a worry. What we now class as disasters, have and will continue to shape the planet just as they have for the past 4.6 billion years, only difference is that as time has passed they have affected more people due to the ever increasing population.
As for people getting out of the way, the more people the less space there is to go to get out of the way.
Lets be honest, as global disasters go, we, in our short time here will be luck/unlucky depending how you look at it, to see anything REALLY big happen. If these events happen once in a million years thats nothing in the scale of things, but taken over 4.6 billion years thats an awful lot of events
