Could this happen again?

yes. but actually a terrible earthquake+tsunami is more likely to hit the PacNW than the bay area in the next 100years or so.

Where was this taken from? Looks like the Ferry Building Tower maybe?

Definitely from the East looking west. I think it's a little further in from the bay though.

They should make a movie about this.... except SF would make filming there a giant pain in the ass.

NIMYs. an entire city of NIMBYs. also amazingly complicated bureaucracy. That's why so many american TV shows are filmed in vancouver

doesn't give a fuck about it happening elsewhere. Usually used in the context of hazardous, noisy or unpleasant things. (2/2)
