another craptastrophe movie...
fixed....kinda.
another craptastrophe movie...
There is some evidence that the earth's magnetic poles have shifted in the past. If it were to happen again, it would be just as catastrophic as implied by this tidal wave. More devastating than the meteor strike that extinctified the dinosaurs.
I'm not saying that's what the movie is about, but it is another global event that would wipe out most species on the planet.
So yea, it could happen.
That guy really likes to destroy the world. I hope this is better that 10,000BC.
YEAA !! all the movies he does is about the destruction of human kind.
Hes best movie is ID4
that trailer looks pretty sweet doh.
that wave looked real.

I curious as to how they would have evidence of that. Also, what would cause it?
Yea that wave did look pretty Legit don't know if it is possible for the sea levels could ever rise that High though

Excursions refer to those cases in the sedimentary and volcanic records where the geodynamo apparently failed to complete a geomagnetic field reversal and ended up backtracking. These large leaps in the field direction may have been produced by abnormal secular variations or may be “manifestations of unsuccessful, or aborted, reversal attempts” [1]. For our purposes, the explanation of the causes of an “excursion” or a complete reversal of the magnetic poles is essentially the same, differing only in the intensity of the causal factor -- the lesser intensity events occurring when the geomagnetic field does not quite complete a reversal.
Evidence of reversals in the geomagnetic field indicates 200 reversals over the last 178 million years. This includes a 35-million year hiatus during the Cretaceous period, and 33 reversals in the last 25 million years. Over the last 70 million years, “polarity reversals have been taking place at an increasing rate” [1]. In fact, there have been 9 major reversals in the past 3.6 million years (i.e. on average one every 400,000 years), with the most recent one, 730,000 years ago. Even more noteworthy is evidence of a looping excursion by the geomagnetic field some 28,000 years ago.
It's not really a rise in sea level, just a one time tidal wave. With enough force the entire ocean could be displaced into a gigantic wave.
Yep I just watched the last episode of x-files and mulder just confirmed the year 2012. So if you got anything good you wanna sell start listing.....

Basically they can tell that the magnetic poles have shifted because of the magnetic axis of rock buried at certain times. It's been 730,000 years since the last shift and supposedly they've happened every 400,000 years before that. So we're overdue.
That same website talks about it happening in 2012 too.
