The extent to which a 5000 foot high wave would go inland depends on various factors such as the slope of the land, obstacles in its path, and the initial strength of the wave. Generally speaking, a wave of this magnitude could potentially cause significant damage and travel several miles inland in flatter coastal areas, while in steeper terrain or areas with natural barriers, its inland penetration would be more limited.

Depends on the rise. If it was similar to the Japan Tsunami 3/11/11 it would go around 1000 miles inland. If it was just a tall thin wave it would go half the size of height. Then again its possible it could go all around the world but it all depends on the elevation....
