Bruh, 123rf photo AGAIN? NEMA can't even be bothered to get a real pic of Milford Sound 😂

NZ Herald2026-06-17T04:08:11.000Z

the photo is fine. Focus on the point.

Tom Harris2026-06-17T03:44:11.000Z

Yeah nah, this is just scaremongering. Milford's been fine for centuries.

Rowan Blake2026-06-17T04:19:11.000Z

nah it's not scaremongering, there's literal evidence. Get out of ya bubble.

Rowan Blake2026-06-17T04:07:11.000Z

Actually, the geology there is legit unstable. Google 'Piopiotahi landslide tsunami'. It's real.

Jamie Fox2026-06-17T04:19:11.000Z

ffs they should just close the fiord during heavy rain. common sense.

Mason Young2026-06-17T04:33:11.000Z

So basically if a rock falls in the water we all die? Cool, cool...

Mason Young2026-06-17T05:08:11.000Z

haha facts. all those million dollar cruises gone in a wave 💀

Worked in tourism there for years. The risk is overblown but the panic sells papers.

Luca Reid2026-06-17T04:59:11.000Z

no they won't, too much money in tourism. money > lives, apparently.

Luca Reid2026-06-17T05:11:11.000Z

wonder how much this 'research' costs... could've spent that on actual tsunami warnings

Tom Harris2026-06-17T05:24:11.000Z

better than building another useless cycleway.

Reagan Shaw2026-06-17T05:36:11.000Z

Imagine being a MP and hearing 'low survival rate' then moving on to the next agenda item. Waste of time.

Reagan Shaw2026-06-17T06:17:11.000Z

our tax dollars hard at work... studying if we die quick or slow. cheers Jacinda

NZ Herald2026-06-17T05:59:11.000Z

survival rate 0% if you're a tourist who can't run up a cliff lol rip

Ruby Fraser2026-06-17T06:40:11.000Z
