<h2>Answer: The tsunami occurred on 1958 at Lituya Bay, Alaska. </h2>

The Lituya Bay tsunami occurred on July 9th, 1958, northeast of the Gulf of Alaska. It was as a consequence of a strong earthquake of magnitude 8.3 on the Ritchter scale along the Fairweather Fault in the Alaskan Panhandle, which caused a landslide in a fjord in Lituya Bay, collapsing an entire mountain and generating a gigantic wave that rose to <u>524 meters</u>, the highest recorded so far.

It should be noted that despite its great magnitude and having uprooted all the trees and vegetation of the place, this mega-tsunami claimed only five lives because the area was not as inhabited as the large cities are.
