But of course, science researchers are calling it bull on the supermoon theory.
Scientifically, according to Dr Roger Musson, head of seismic hazard at the British Geological Survey, described the quake, of 8.9-magnitude, as a "truly massive event."
He said: "This earthquake happened because the Pacific Plate, one of the largest of the tectonic plates that make up the crust of the Earth, is plunging deep underneath Japan. It's being pushed down and it can't slide down smoothly so it sticks.
It sticks for tens of years then eventually it breaks and moves very suddenly down, buckling and giving the seabed a sudden kick over areas of hundreds of square kilometres. That displaces an enormous volume of water. That water just races away in the form of this enormous wave in all directions."
Looking at the picture below, it looks like there was a chance Malaysia could have been affected.
