deep. and so when that shakes, it really shakes hard. a lot of subduction zone earthquakes are 200 miles deep. and there's a lot of padding between the shaking part and the earth surface where we live. here in chile, it is not that way. one great thing about where this tsunami happened, evenhough it was only about a six to eight-foot wave. this is not a highly populated area. you look at this cliff, these cliffs here almost of insanity, there is not a lot of place for people to live there. the people that do live here, live right along the coast, because they have to. it's the only flat land. and that's where we saw that last night. some of these areas here just north did see this water coming up and getting right into that community right through here. >> great graphics. really does help sort of explain the topography and how this played out. chad myers, thank you for that. and also our thanks to rolando santos, live for us in santiago, chile. we continue to update that story. a couple other big ones too.
