[quote:Anonymous Coward 1085867:MV85OTkyMTZfMjA2Mjg2MTBfNDRGNTE0NDM=] thought about this before. a large plastic barrel made of fiberglass that you enter from the top. Designed to keep you upright. Bouancy is key, you don't want to be under anything. for any amount of time. The hatch seals to barrel with a valve that can be opened to get air from outside when stable on the waters surface. A long extended tube on the top would prevent water from splashing in, a snorkel type fixture. Would never work on the coastline but inland you would be able to escape the flooding and stay on top of the water. Supplies would be limited but you could incorporate other sealed barrels to your life pod that would make you safer and more stable as far as floating on the surface is concerned. this is doable and within reasonable cost. it would work but who knows what you would be dealing with after.

Original Message
I am modifying a large safe to be a sort of pod that I will be able to survive in when 2012 comes and there are mile high tsunamis. As this massive wave approaches I will lock myself in my padded safe where there are 2 oxygen tanks, food and water. After the massive tsunami hits, I will safely swim up with my inflatable raft and search for dry land.
