Fake, as far as I can tell. It looks quite fake, and also, I believe that it was not a huge breaking wave on the shore...it was simply a very large swell that engulfed the coast. I don't think it'd tube like that.

Plus, that wave looks about as tall as that skyscraper. No way.

And look at that spray along the road. No way would it look like that...it's got chunks, lieka photoshop brush.

The wave is not as tall as the building, no where near. It's a big fuzzy perspective mess so it looks like that. Also those skyscrapers are not very high. Also notice the wave in the background is a little more difficult to fake.

It looks like a scene from... that film.

well, in "that film" the wave in question was basicly a supersized run of the mill wave that you get during storms. no changes in pressure occur in the water on the inside of storm surge waves.

as a tsunami is a shackwave, the water is being moved from the inside and is much harder to slow down by merely having things in its path.

all, I can say, is that the waves were about 3 FRIGGIN STORIES HIGH! so you can't say it was just a casual flood you darn idiot! Even though the image is fake, I had to give my 2% of a dollar.
Nothing to see here, move along.

If it were real, I doubt that the cars would be moving in such an orderly fashion down the road.

Tsunami waves aren't necessarily tall, just powerful.
