Natural Hazard...Boxing Day Tsunami 2004

The natural disaster my goup and I choose is the Boxing Day Tsunami that destroyed the coasts from the southeast of Asia in 2004.

Epicenter of the Tsunami

 
 

Over 230,000 people in fourteen countries, were killed



 
Coastal communities were inundating by waves up to 30mtrs

 

 


It was one of the deadliest natural disasters in recorded history



Indonesia was the hardest-hit country, followed by Sri Lanka, India, and Thailand

 

The Hollywood directors, have created a new film called The Impossible based on a real surviving experience:

English physician Maria Bennet, her Scottish husband Henry and their sons Lucas,Tomas and Simon are on Christmas holiday in Khao Lak, Thailand, in 2004.

The tsunami triggered by that year's Indian Ocean earthquake floods the area with overwhelming destructive power.


Maria and Lucas are swept away from the others by the tsunami and barely survive; Maria is severely injured but they find a displaced toddler named Daniel in the wreckage.
 
Elsewhere, Henry, Tomas and Simon had survived the tsunami themselves together, although the father is injured he continues looking for his son and wife.

Here I live you the tráiler of a movie that demostrates human spirit is stronger tan anything:
