There is no such thing as a category 5 tsunami. Category 5 is a rating on the Saffir-Simpson scale, which measures hurricane intensity. Category 5 is the highest rating, indicating a storm with sustained wind exceeding 156 mph. Tsunamis are a completely different phenomenon and have no rating system.
