I read that the maldives is only a average of 1 meter(3 feet above sea level.So, a 10 meter(30 foot wall of water moving very, very fast is terrifying in and of itself. |

Whole islands moved! The northern point of Indonesia is now 15 meters (that's roughly 45 feet!) away from where it was prior to the wave.
Another smaller island moved 2 meters (6 feet) up... Maps will have to be redrawn because of this tsunami...

Just doing number crunching, .002% of the world's population died in about 6 hours or 1/50,000 people. Thats crazy.
