The scientists said the landslide sent an estimated that 25 million cubic meters of rock and ice crashing into Dickson Fjord from a collapsing 1.2 kilometer-tall (roughly three-quarters of a mile high) mountain peak. The resulting splashdown sent water surging 655 feet in the air, then created a 360-foot wave that crossed 6.2 miles of the fjord.
