It usually goes out about 5-8 Metres
As waves approach the shore the wavelength and speed decreases. As they decrease, the wave grows larger. The wave then crashes onto shore because it becomes too steep for the bottom of the wave to carry.
When an underwater earthquake displacing a large volume of sea water the effect could be a tsunami (tidal wave).
The tsunami can flood as fast as a commercial jet plane.
Madagascar is approximately 5,500 kilometers (3,400 miles) away from the epicenter of the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami.
MAGIC ? Well if you are a bonafide magician who can see the future yes, (don't count on it). If you feel an earthquake the tremors should move thru the earth which is alot more solid than water first.. so if you feel an earthquake or get reports of one, go to high ground far as possible inland. ALSO the tsnami will 'suck' the water away from coastal areas right before it hits, you may see a curiosity; debris on bottom of areas normally covered with water (like sunken boats, wreckage, etc )... run like hell far as possible inland or to high as possible in as big and strong a structure as you can find.

the tide will go out unnusally far causing the water to go very shallow
arccording to far back the water has drawn and how low your land is it may reach
35m

How far can a water ballon be tossed to someone before it pops?
No. The Grand Canyon is way too far inland to get a tsunami.
The likelihood of a tsunami hitting Atlanta in the future is extremely low, as Atlanta is located far inland and not near any major bodies of water where tsunamis typically occur.
No. It is too far inland.
A water balloon can be tossed to someone before it breaks for about 5-20 metres far.
