The Heaviest Video of the Tsunami You'll Ever See



Watch it. The Japanese people on the hill video taping this are saying things like, "Here comes the tsunami. Look at those cars! Look at those houses!" "I can't believe it!"


You won't believe it either. At first these people are interested, almost jovial, but as the scope of the disaster comes upon them, they begin to grasp it and start to cry in horror. It is quickly apparent to these folks that this is not a jovial - nor pleasant - experience as their homes and lives are destroyed right in front of their eyes.

    Who in the hell are those people driving the cars and trucks, especially the truck entering the Tsunami from the right and the car entering the tunnel? I thought that the Japanese people understood Tsunamis better than anyone in the world?

    It is frustrating to watch this and feel so helpless for them. :(

    I am 71 yrs old and until 5 years ago had never heard of a Tsumani.Most earthquakes were inland. This is how tv has made our world smaller...now I have seen live pictures of one.
    I live in tornado country. Even when the damage is devastating (Alabama) we have warning and often lives are saved. I liked the comment about the Global Warming Cult. LA

    Something that we can never predict?
    Is Mother Nature taking us backward?
    Have we gone too far toward forward?
    Without a Warning? Without a sign?
    Can we do something about it? We can
    What can we do? Believed in our God
    What way to survive the survivers? Resettled and settled, patiently and confidently.
    Taking the Best to share with people that able to retrive our existing, rebuild the future in a friendly campatibility way,
    God build a world without bounty, Help eachother! Save our World...

    Just a terrible thing. So many lives taken away without reason. And now, Tornadoes in Missouri with many more lives taken away. It just seems like we are losing ground, taken away by Mother Nature. Is this a punishment for something? And to think that our own Government spends millions of our tax payer's dollars overseas, when we should be taking care of our own, right here in the United States. That money could be better spent helping people who go through these diasters. I know the feeling since we went through Katrina.

    The politicians of the world were warned by scientists and experts what would happen to our world if nothing was done to change the way they allow pollution and destruction of the earth to fuel their lust for money at any cost.Even now nothing has changed despite the terrible loss of life this causes. May the Lord have mercy on them all......

    This is horrible and very sad, but my question is that after having a 9.0 earth quake... business is going on as usual and there is no destruction of homes prior to the tsuanami (which followed the earth quake). Look at some of the other videos you will see the same thing and I have yet to see and maybe have missed pictures of what the 9.0 earth quake did. Something is wierd and wonder if more is going on that what we see. Maybe reactor 4???

Comments must be succinct & relevant to the story. Comments are checked frequently and abusive, rude or profane comments will be deleted. I’m just one of many bloggers who answer questions online and sometimes for the press. I usually handle questions about Japan, marketing or the economy, so in those areas I’m more likely to make sense and less likely to say something really stupid. If I post something here that you find helpful or interesting, that’s wonderful. This is my personal blog. If you don't like what you have read here then, just like when you go into a restaurant or bar that allows smoking, if you don't like it, there's something at the front that has hinges on it and it is called a "door."
