   This mega thrust earthquake's hypocenter was reported to be off the Oshika Peninsula, the east coast of Tōhoku. It was the strongest to hit Japan and one of the top five largest earthquakes in the world since seismological record-keeping began. It was followed by a tsunami with waves of up to 10 meters (33 ft). The disaster left thousands dead and inflicted extensive material damage to buildings and infrastructure that led to significant accidents at two major nuclear power stations
