In the West we think of devastating tsunamis as events that happen elsewhere in the world - across the far seas and in news bulletins on our televisions, affecting nations vulnerable to the Earth's seismic instability. But what would happen across the world if a tsunami was triggered by a major landslide in the Atlantic Ocean? Where would it hit, and would we survive? How would we cope in the aftermath? Could We Survive a Mega-Tsunami reveals that in the Atlantic there is in fact a 'Big One' waiting to happen. Creatively weaving compelling scientific fact with realistic dramatization, supported by real and specially shot 'user generated footage' some of which is enhanced by CGI, this program brings the reality of an unparalleled Atlantic tsunami to life in an authentic way.
