Tsunami - 2004 Wave of Death



The 2004 tsunami was caused by a 9.3 earthquake - the second strongest quake on record. It was nature's fury at it's worst, targeting most of its destructive energy at northern Indonesia and Thailand in the east, Sri Lanka, India and the coast of Africa to the west, and killing more than 200,000 people in 14 countries.

This hour looks at the tsunami as it moves from coast to coast, through the eyes of people who lived through it and scientists now studying its course. Using the extraordinary amount of amateur video that recorded the disaster, it takes the viewer inside the world's deadliest tsunami.
