While other factors need to be considered, like coastal topography, studies suggest a tsunami can travel inland about 10-20 times its height on a flat surface before energy dissipation. For a 12-foot tsunami, this translates to roughly 120-240 feet inland. For a 70-foot tsunami, it could reach 700-1,400 feet (about 0.13-0.27 miles) inland, assuming no significant elevation or obstacles.
Not accurate.
it depends on the wavelength of the tsunami.
A wave 12 foot high but 100 miles in wavelength to go a hell of a lot further than just a football field.
The Japan tsunami went more than 6 miles inland in some places.

I really hope this doesn't happen.
Pray guys.
Neither was the prediction.
