Elevation topping charts of Amazon Prime
Recent figures show that Elevation has become a streaming hit, as viewers are tuning in to check out this underappreciated post-apocalyptic story on Prime Video. Set three years after mysterious apex predators emerged from sinkholes underground, these fearsome creatures known as Reapers obliterated 95% of humanity in the first month.
Live Events
The film stars Mackie as a single father, Will, who lives with his son high up in the Rocky Mountains. Most of humanity has been decimated by predators who emerged from underground.
Surviving humans live at high elevations, about 8,000 feet, heights that the predators are unable (or unwilling) to venture to. However, when Will's son starts to get sick, he recruits a scientist, Nina (Morena Baccarin), to venture out of elevation with him to find help. The film currently holds only a 55% critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes, though it was more well received by regular viewers with an 80% audience score.

Tsunami hits California after Russia earthquake: 5 worst tsunamis of the 21st century every student should know about
Today, July 30, 2025 a powerful undersea earthquake near the Kuril Islands off the Russian coast triggered tsunami alerts across the Pacific, placing regions such as Hawaii and coastal California on high alert. While no widespread damage was reported, the incident served as a sharp reminder of how the earth's quietest regions can rapidly become epicenters of destruction. Tsunamis are often misunderstood as isolated waves or weather events. In reality, they are complex natural phenomena with seismic roots, frequently linked to tectonic instability in vulnerable coastal zones. Their unpredictable nature, paired with the sheer speed and force with which they travel, is what makes them among the deadliest of natural disasters. What is a tsunami? A tsunami is a series of large ocean waves generated by a sudden displacement of water. This displacement is usually caused by undersea earthquakes, but can also be triggered by volcanic eruptions, landslides, or even glacial collapses. When the ocean floor abruptly shifts, it displaces a large volume of water, creating waves that move at speeds of up to 800 kilometres per hour in deep water. These waves grow in height as they approach shallower coastal areas, often striking with little to no warning. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Greatest Enemy of Tinnitus? Try This Tonight! Tinnitus Freedom Learn More Undo Contrary to cinematic portrayals, tsunamis do not resemble typical surf waves. Instead, they arrive as rapidly rising walls of water, often preceded by an abnormal retreat of the shoreline, which can expose the seafloor before the waves strike. Over the last two decades, several tsunamis have demonstrated how devastating this natural force can be. Below are five of the most catastrophic tsunamis of the 21st century, ranked not only by death toll but also by their lasting geopolitical and humanitarian consequences. Indian Ocean Tsunami (2004) Date: December 26, 2004 Magnitude: 9.1–9.3 Death toll: Over 230,000 Countries affected: Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and more Triggered by a massive undersea earthquake off the west coast of Sumatra, this tsunami remains the deadliest in recorded history. The waves, some over 30 metres high, radiated across the Indian Ocean, devastating coastal communities and killing hundreds of thousands within hours. The lack of early warning systems in the region exposed severe gaps in disaster preparedness, prompting global reforms in seismic monitoring and humanitarian coordination. Japan Tōhoku Tsunami (2011) Date: March 11, 2011 Magnitude: 9.0 Death toll: Around 18,500 Primary impact: Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster The tsunami that followed the undersea quake off Japan's northeastern coast was one of the most technologically and economically consequential disasters in modern history. It inundated entire towns, triggered the meltdown of three nuclear reactors, and caused long-term displacement in Fukushima Prefecture. Japan's preparedness and engineering resilience were notable, but even they were overwhelmed by the sheer scale of the catastrophe. Sulawesi, Indonesia Tsunami (2018) Date: September 28, 2018 Magnitude: 7.5 Death toll: Over 4,300 Following an earthquake that struck the island of Sulawesi, the city of Palu was hit by a tsunami that destroyed thousands of buildings and claimed thousands of lives. Poor coastal infrastructure, limited evacuation protocols, and delayed warnings contributed to the disaster. The event also included soil liquefaction, which led to entire neighbourhoods sinking or shifting dramatically. Mentawai Islands Tsunami (2010) Date: October 25, 2010 Magnitude: 7.7 Death toll: Around 500 Region: Off the coast of Sumatra, Indonesia A relatively underreported event, the Mentawai tsunami struck several remote Indonesian islands late at night, cutting off communities from rescue services for days. The geographical isolation compounded the humanitarian crisis. Although the death toll was lower than other events, its severity was felt deeply in the affected islands, and it underscored the need for better outreach and emergency access in remote coastal areas. Anak Krakatau Tsunami (2018) Date: December 22, 2018 Cause: Volcanic eruption-triggered landslide Death toll: Over 430 Region: Sunda Strait, Indonesia Unlike typical tsunamis triggered by earthquakes, this disaster followed the collapse of a portion of the Anak Krakatau volcano into the sea, generating waves that struck without seismic warning. Tourists and residents along the Sunda Strait coastlines were caught off guard. The event illustrated how diverse the causes of tsunamis can be, and why monitoring volcanic activity is as crucial as seismic zones. Looking forward: Preparedness over panic The recent earthquake near Russia's Kuril Islands and subsequent tsunami alerts in Hawaii and California may not have resulted in major damage, but they serve as a valuable reminder. Coastal regions, even those with advanced monitoring systems, remain vulnerable to undersea disruptions. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) and the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center continue to emphasise the importance of early warning infrastructure and public awareness. For students, educators, and community leaders, understanding the science behind tsunamis is just the starting point. What follows is preparedness — through drills, coastal planning, and cross-border cooperation. As climate and tectonic patterns evolve, staying informed becomes not just smart, but essential.

Kanika Mann Wanted To 'Avoid' Kiss Scene With Arjun Bijlani: 'Main Comfortable Nahi Thi'
Roohaniyat has two seasons. While the first season was released on Prime Video in March 2022, the second season premiered in July of the same year. Kanika Mann has revealed that she cried while shooting a kissing scene with Arjun Bijlani for their web series, Roohaniyat. In a recent interview, the actress opened up about her intimate scenes with Arjun, who is 11 years elder to him. Kanika mentioned that she wasn't comfortable doing a kiss scene and therefore started crying on the sets of Roohaniyat. When Arjun saw her reacting this way, he walked off, thinking it was him who made her uncomfortable. 'I cried while doing that scene. I was not comfortable. There are multiple people on sets. Yes, they reduce the number of people on sets while filming such scenes but even then, it was weird and I started crying. I told them, 'let's avoid this'. Arjun felt off. He thought he made me feel uncomfortable. He left the sets. I apologised to him. He is my senior. He made me learn a lot. I respect him so much. I apologised to him and we did that scene, comfortably," Kanika told Filmygyan. Roohaniyat has two seasons. While the first season was released on Prime Video in March 2022, the second season premiered in July of the same year. Previously, Kanika talked about the show in a statement and said, 'When I read the script of Roohaniyat, it had me hooked from the very start. Prisha is an unpredictable girl who believes in the concept of true love and soulmates. I could relate to that character being a hopeless romantic myself. I hope the audience enjoys the series and appreciates our work." Her co-star, Arjun Bijlani, also added, 'Shooting for this series has been an amazing experience. This show is all about finding answers to whether love forever exists. This is not your usual love story. It has twists and turns that no one expects. I can't wait to see the audience reaction to the trailer." First Published: July 30, 2025, 16:38 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
