I personally couldn't be happier nothing happened, we are privileged to live in a country where stuff like this doesn't happen. But waking up one day and a wave taking away all your family and everything you live for... is not something someone else should watch and then get disappointed if it doesn't happen.

You're completely missing the point- noone wanted to see death or destruction, but after all the hype people wanted to see something even if it was just a giant wave crashing into the side. It was meant to be a 3m wave at first- that would have caused almost no damage whatsoever to Hawaii- its a big mountain! Its not like the Boxing Day 2004 tsunami where many of the islands affected are at sea level.
