Japan is full of neon obstructions.Tool kinda called that there....just saying.

Dam, thats to much of a conqwinkadink for me.

One has to wonder what this man knew before he wrote that song or did someone pass it off to them to sing?

Isnt it ironic? Fish are now eating raw japanese.

Not very sensitive now are we? The spokesman for afflack insurance, the voice of the duck is gilbert godfried, got fired for saying, "Japanese Don't go to the beach, the beach comes to them". I think humor is one way of dealing with tragedy. Not very thoughtful however.

At the beginning of the video I tried to guess what buildings would be left standing. I felt that the person filming seemed high enough that he'd be O.K. I also thought about what I'd do if I was inside one of the buildings below him. I thought I might be safe on top of the roof of one of those buildings. Reality set in when I watched them being washed away as if they had been made of paper. I would have been washed away with them. The tall building across from the guy filming looked like it stood up to the tsunami pretty well, and seemed to have survived the earthquake.

If I learned anything from this video, its that when an earthquake like that hits California, the first thing I should do is get in my car and start racing for the nearest hill. Forget the roof top! I'm about 2 miles from the beach. According to what I've read, the tsunami traveled about 6 miles inland. I'm not sure how far I can get in 10-15 minutes, especially when everyone else has the same idea I do, and the roads get plugged up with people trying to get the hell away from the coast. Maybe I'll head for the nearest tall, broad building like the one in the video. Maybe I'll go for a large multi-level car parking lot. Those buildings are generally sturdier, built from steel and cinder blocks if I'm not mistaken. It's good to think of an escape plan just in case.

A new view of the tsunami

That link will take you to CNN.com where you can see the video a bit larger, and a bit clearer. The video is difficult to watch...

Sidenote: not to pull a UFO hijack of the thread, but around 1:25 in the video pans to a shot off in the distance and there seems to be black objects floating and disappearing, then reappearing in different spots. Hmmm.

Wow a lot of people have little tolerance is it really that hard to mute rather than just spew at the first 2 seconds and rage close the net ? O_o

OP thank you for making me aware of this video.

I watched all of that in disbelief.

Oh and what music are people talking about? i didn't hear anything but a guy on the speaker no doubt telling people what to do to get out of harms way.

Oh I'm so going to hell for laughing at that
I just wanted to say, I encourage these dark humored posts. All will receive stars from me.

Both links are broken. Tried each of em twice, and it didn't do anything until I got the error.

This reminds me, I was reading the Infinity Gauntlet Marvel comic arc yesterday and came across a part where Thor flies over Japan, all of which had vanished beneath the waves of the ocean. Immediately made me think of the tsunami, it was a very odd coincidence, haha...

Umm, wow, to see that much destruction in so short a time really makes one feel small. Take a good look mankind, your but a speck of dirt in the path of Mother Nature.

Wondering if you see yourself laughing when this knocks on your door as well.

2nd line is made of anger towards intolerance...

The power of that water is just breathtaking, it just kept coming, and kept coming. I would not have wanted to have been where that camerman was perched, not knowing if the building your on top of is suddenly going to rip loose of its foundations, or a massive boat, or any number of other large objects caught in the rip crashing into the side of it...yikes

now this is a scarey vid of the tsunami from the coastline it starts around 6:10 in the vid ...if u want to fast forward it to were it starts..when you first see it,you think there no way the person filming would be under threat..but he turns round with the cam,and you see a monster wave of water rush's in..it must of been like the end of the world at that moment

I am not sure how someone ranks Tsunami Footage, it is all bad and frankly, the OP appears to be uninformed, their is plenty of more graphic footage:

That is what I would call complete decimation :0.

The original version had Aenima playing in the background, but was removed about an hour after it was posted here.
