"Beyond" is completely ambiguous in this case. Do you mean above or below?
- jonplackett 1y agoWell obviously they mean below
- gus_massa 1y agoI got very confused too. After reading a few times I interpreted it as a typo.
- aaronax 1y agoUnless they mean beyond the reach of the flood waters.
- baobabKoodaa 1y agoNot obvious to me
- shazbotter 1y agoThey famously got inundated with tsunami water. It's pretty reasonable to assume they were below the line of tsunami high water marks.
- baobabKoodaa 1y agoHow is that reasonable to assume? You can have a tsunami that is higher than the previous tsunamis, hence, exceeding previous water marks.
- shazbotter 1y agoWhat's more likely, worst tsunami ever, beyond previous safety stones? Or company shortcuts safety and falls over because they failed to account for predictable circumstances? Given the latter happens constantly, and the former is once in generations upon generations, I think it's safe to assume the problem is human and the tsunami was within historical ranges. Especially since other reactors were hit by the same tsunami and were fine.
