The Vajont Dam is a disused hydro-electric dam in northern Italy․ It was the tallest dam in the world‚ with a height of 262 m(860 ft)․ On 9 October 1963‚ during initial filling of the lake‚ a landslide caused a megatsunami in which 50‚000‚000 m3 (1․8×109 cu ft) of water overtopped the dam in a wave of 250 m (820 ft)‚ bringing massive flooding and destruction to the Piave Valley below‚ destroying several villages and towns‚ causing an estimated 1‚900 to 2‚500 deaths․ The dam itself remained almost intact
