| actually the weird thing here is that I watched a show on Tsunami's and mega-tsunamis (not the ones caused by earthquakes but large islands falling into the sea) just 3 or 4 nights ago, they've predicted that one of the canary isles (where I holiday) called La Palma is slowly falling ionto the sea and if it does, a tsunami about 20 times the size of this will devastate the entire east coast of the usa if it happens. |

I know there have been disasters that have taken more lives before...but have any been as widespread as this one? :nervous:
Indonesia, Malaysia, Somalia, India, Sri Lanka etc etc....
Even the west coast of Australia felt an increase in ocean swell (from what I heard) |

Yea true... he has lotsa fans heh. I don't have a link for Jet Li. There's a topic regarding this in a local(singapore) forum and some of them claimed to hear that on the radio news report.
edit: forgot to say this in my previous post, Jet Li went for a vacation(i dont know the location) |
