Simulation of tsunami heading to Falkland Islands

Scientists say the Falkland Islands may at some point in the future face a major tsunami.

They’ve found evidence of ancient slope failures on the seafloor to the south of the British Overseas Territory.

Computer models suggest these underwater landslides would be capable of sending waves crashing on to the Falklands' coastline that are tens of metres high.

Fortunately, these events only appear to happen once every million years or so.
