I'd love to see the stuff that did get washed ashore in the tsunami, perhaps a submarine or two? lol.
Well, nothing really gets washed up due to tsunamis, since in deep water it is just a transfer of energy. No water actually moves (except maybe up and down slightly). Only when the wave of energy hits shallow water and encounters resistance does any major flow of water happen.
