The world's first tsunami likely occurred before there were humans, so no one really knows, but it probably happened a lot like more recent tsunamis, just without any buildings to be damaged, cities to be flooded or people to be killed. An earthquake happened under the sea, resulting in huge waves, flooding coastal areas.
