Yes, a tsunami can destroy large buildings, even those taller than the wave itself. Tsunamis carry immense energy and can reach heights of over 100 feet in some cases, causing severe flooding and strong currents that can undermine structures. Additionally, the debris and force of the water can lead to significant damage, making it dangerous for buildings of any size. Proper engineering and planning are crucial for mitigating tsunami risks in coastal areas.

Which is worse earthquakes or tsunamis?
Earthquakes are worse than tsunamis. Earthquakes are mostly unpredictable but tsunamis are sometimes predictable which sets warning for people to escape shore. Earthquakes destroy buildings but tsunamis don't. When tsunamis hit land, the buildings acts like a strong shield that cuts through the tsunami like what the wind-breaker does to the wind. Earthquakes can do more damage than tsunamis because earthquakes destroy buildings which takes much short time than rebuilding it which tsunamis only cause flash flooding which can be recovered as soon as possible. It's very difficult to escape an earthquake but it's sometimes easy to escape a tsunami. It's very difficult to recover the earthquake damage, therefore earthquakes are considered as the modest natural disaster.
Is there a bigger boat then Titanic?
There is now, but in the Titanic's time (1912) there was not. The Titanic was even bigger than all of the buildings in its time!
Would a tsunami triggered by a comet be bigger than a tsunami triggered by an earthquake?
actually a comet will make a bigger tsunami than an earth quake because it depends on how big the comet is so obviously if its a mini comet about the size of a fist its not going to do any affect but a comet like the size of Texas it would make a Mega Tsunami and once there was a Mega Tsunami the size of a city! and it flooded it completely.

What are the benefits of Tsunami?
There are no positive effects of a tsunami. A tsunami does enormous damage to coastal areas, destroying buildings and killing people.it would clear a place for new buildings to be built.slows greenhouse emissions as factories are closed.reduces world population which is rising very fast.AddendaAny of the perceived benefits stated would be more than offset.Clearing those buildings would almost certainly mean loss of life, home and workplace.The greenhouse emissions produced replacing those factories and buildings would be greater than those the factories produced.The deaths caused would have no measurable impact on the overall population rate of increase.
Does tornadoes cause more damage than a tsunami?
Generally not. A tsunami can usually cause more damage because it affects a bigger area. However, a tornado can often cause worse damage in a small area.
