Just another fucking fake video to be reported. The only question i do have is how this could be seriously discussed. This is neither timelapse nor a tsunami. The CNN logo doesn´t make this real footage...
@coolbionicle: Just realized you were commenting on my use of the word tides on my original post. You agree correct...I misused that word...meant to say surge...I age a full tidal cycle would go by much faster and we would also see day turn into night.
This was one of the worst videos on the news at the time, and was shown widely on Hawai'ian TV. There was nothing for the viewer to detect the scale of what was being seen. While it is, in fact, an actual reef in the distance, it appears more like a 3 inch length of dirty sand that could have been placed in a shallow metal pan. They really needed to show more of the beach, people, and/or trees in the foreground so viewers could get a handle on the scale.
It's a timelapse of a shallow reef with the tide coming in and then going out - the white trails on the "ripples" are waves breaking on the reef - the fact the shot is pulled back and the sense of timelapse make it seem out of proportion to reality.
@scombridae1969 Did you knew that tides rise and back away every twelve hours? Judging by the speed of the waves here, this video was about four to five hours. If you timelapsed the tides in the time of this video the waves would go waaay faster.
Ok ! to explain what your really looking at look at the bottom of the right side and you will see the tops of 2 small stones, what you are looking at is someone pointing the camera down on sand and filming the ripple effect of the water on sand, some time lapse speed is evident due to the rather rapid oscillating, effect of the water and the reflective effect of the sky on the sand, making it clearly evident that this is not an aireal or satelite image, the proportion's are way out!
It would be helpful to have some idea of scale; is this an island several kilometres long, a sandbank, a reef or just a pile of sand on the foreshore?

I thought it was snow drifting down a mountain, I was waiting to see a 14,000 ft Hilo tidal wave, to melt it in a flash.

I agree with lovethisnation, this isnt a tsunami, its an example of tides, tsunamis arent percentage of inches high
