 When both King Kong and Godzilla crash into the ocean during the films  climax there is a big difference in the power of the Earthquake that occurs  between the U.S and Japanese versions. In the Japanese version there really  is no "Earthquake" but a slight tremor caused by the two big monsters  fighting off of the coast. A few small rocks topple from a hill and a small  sapling falls over. In the U.S version there really is an Earthquake and its  far more powerful. Not only does the quake cause the ground to split open  swallowing up several houses, but massive tidal waves occur flooding the  nearby valleys. Universal
