Hurricane Ike Brings 5-story Waves to Cuba

[BuridansEsel1]

In march 2008 I was still at the southcoast of Cuba and in Sept/oct. 2008 in the New England States. There I was in a college at a special dinner for the cubans. Everybody paid much as he could. I did not know before that there are friendships cities between Cuba and the USA.

[robertdavis11]

i wish i were there when ike hit

[boi9031]

BAD 5 story high waves. no. getting hit by that thats bad as the hurricane.(sorry i put it story)

[Millkid20]

[Sammy32201]

O.o HOLYCOW!!!

[arn0ldaar0n]

[diggit427]

How you think about other human beings defines whether you are human or not...you just failed.

[NerfGunnerBoy]

Ike "You'll get no sympathy from me."

[EternalPhoenixFire]

Great Aether!!!

[jayzSirHawt]

LOL 00:35!!! XDD HILARIOUS EVERY TIME

[mary1443]

error on my previous comment - these people in cuba need help too! who`s going to help them, Britain, America, Russia, or perhaps China?

[mary1443]

why hasn`t the media shown more of hurrican ike in cuba, this people need help too!

[llessurxer]

rex make wind

[GoldJet45]

skippy makes the smashtasm

[Tartpkin]

They had to be bigger than fucking 5 stories..

[genxr65]

Not 5 story waves...water was thrown up 5 stories as it impacted what I presume was some kind of seawall.

[proamlito07]

John Mcsame for president 08!!!

[Vantzyourule]

ew.

[mainebay]

This was a warning sent from god for you idiots who voted for Bush .

Obama 08

[crash90bash]

it is a warning. ALLAH help them all.

[SWeggemann]

You're a complete fucking idiot. You think God gives an oven baked shit about the President of the USA??? Like that's gonna somehow derail his plans. It's a NATURAL DISASTER it happens all over the world in different forms. Then some religious nutcase chalks it up to a warning from God. GFY. You think there weren't any democrats in Ike's path. Houston and Galveston are both run by Democratic mayors. Think before you comment, and have a little respect for the loss of human life.

[monkeymonk69]

that is nothing short of blaphemic....what would Jesus do....Jesus loves us all, did he not say that all that BELIEVETH in him shall not parish but have everlasting life?

[roulainde]

just for saying that you will probs go to hell!

[zenrising]

The waves aren't really five stories high - only the spray from when they break is. The waves themselves look about one storey high. Still damned scary though.

[Cloverleafsk8er]

again guys my comment below was a reply to some asshole on a few pages down, for soem reason my comments dont get posted in reply anymore

[yourehot1028]

Wow, those waves are huge!!! I hope all you folks are doing okay and getting back to normal.

[wasserdagger]

Whoa, awesome images. That beachfront building took an 'Ike Strike' right on the chin - and somehow remained standing. I'd guess that some of the rooms in that building had fresh fish flapping around on the floor.

[MrIkeVinci]

how dumb do u think I feel with my name being Ike and all...Suckaz

[DaddyDMF]

Hey, JMc4 Prez. You are an obvious redneck whose trailer park will be destroyed in this Huricane.

[sugareelaura]

uh... you are not doing your candidate any favors....

[LeoKinoske]

Learn to spell, moron.

[sydneysmooth21]

Do you realise that are humans are equal, regardless of race, sexuality, we are all equal, and to someone such as yourself to think that because we are white we are better, you may as well join the white supremacist Neo Nazi's of eastern Europe and Russia. Shocking how after thousands of years of civilization, people can have no understanding of their own species.

[glovemane28]

go live in africa and u tell me we r equal

[RSVStudios]

that sounds racist =l........

and by the way, no matter what mccain does, i doubt he'll stop the wetback prob,........

mexicans are clever =)

i 100% agree with sydneysmooth21

[brunetteforsure]

erm.. those "tacos" lived there before anyone.. and + you are white trash. white people dont like you anways.. so dont talk.

[juliashaun]

Funny you support John McCain who supports immigration reform. Typical PSUEDOconservative idiot and unless you misspell on purpose you should know it is a sign lack of education.

[Daisy72762]

For the hundreds of stupid people who refuse to evacuate in Texas,and insist on "riding out the storm".....i have no sympathy for whatever happens to your sorry asses!!If you are too stupid to heed the warnings and evacuations,then you deserve whatever happens to you!!!!

[cowboycarl04]

40% of the 57,000 that live in Galveston said they would stay and ride it out. If the storm hit there with the eastern eye wall, then there would be a 40 foot storm surge over the island.

It amazes me the stupidity that people possess. Yes, you have survived other storms, but when the weather experts say...

LEAVE OR DIE... I choose to fucking leave... I'm with you, they get what they deserve. I will go down and volunteer to help, but they get no sympathy from me.

[RawSteelUT]

I have to agree. As a Floridian myself, I know that when these things even look at us, the Keyes are evacuated and THE PEOPLE LEAVE. None of us will forget Andrew, and all I can say is that Galvaston's going to get the hell beat out of it.

[jonasnick885]

ummm... im gonna get bad weather cuz i live in texas and... we are going to start getting the bad weather tomarow.. but we arent getting it as bad as huston and galvaston.

[redgyro1]

Faith, Massachusetts can get hurricanes. I remember a pretty bad one, Hurricane Carol, in I think 1956 when I was a kid living in Rhode Island; uprooted big trees, smashed boats, downed electric lines. Massachusetts is right next door....

[kirbyr64]

hay i was playing brawl with ike and i was killing every one on the pirate ship mabby ike jumped off the ship and killed every :}

[roflzroflz11256]

we studied this today and its catagory 4-bigger then katrina-flooding over 17 sea wall even texas governer said "all who stay face CERTAIN death"sooo yea its also predicicted to hav like A LOT and wen i say that im uner exagerating so its gonna be bad

hope everyon will be safe

[Bunbun5789]

if anyone goes to yahoo and then go to the tracks its going to so pwn an edge of oklahoma and i live there D:

[Faith3943]

move to massachusetts we dont get any...

[purpl3blu3]

put yall get tornandoes duh eeverywhere you go...theres bad weather so either way were screwed ....cal-earthquake...up north cold temp. i live in texas...houston i hope it aint too bad :O

[chutubeme]

[dasgemuse]

[gaae2000]

[TaylorHasProblems]

dang. . thoz r some priddy friggin big waves @_@ my aunt lives in texas and im hoping the best fer her :O

[tPSYCHOt]

the motherfucker's huge

[Mattmcd1]

This is a deadly hurricane guys... I live in Texas and it's coming right in to me after it makes landfall in Houston =|

20-25 foot storm surges.... that floods amazingly.

I'm expecting at least 10000 deaths.

[pureboy1]

Nah not 10000 deaths. I live in houston too :/. It's only 110 miles now and category 2 or 3. Lets see what happens :/.

[Mattmcd1]

No it's not the wind or the category.... it's the waves and flooding. Whole houses will be under the water. And the sad thing is, 40 percent of Galveston decided to stay. And even worse, the storm hits right now - at night.

It could be less than 10000, but I know it is going to be a lottt

[7uck123]

i live where u live =/

[opticonica]

Cloverleafsk8er: Dude, keep your weak ass liberal bullshit to yourself. You obviously know nothing of geoglobal dynamics. There is absolutely NO parallelism with this video and your sacristy assertions about oil. Its pinheads like you that would cause any downfall with our country.

The only cure to poverty is production.

[Cloverleafsk8er]

lol i was just stating what most people are thinking, im not even political, so for my weak as liberal whachamacallic insult, makes u seem like a dick all together, im just laughing, BECAUSE if u read the comments on the last few pages you would see why i posted about oil, suck my dick u obnoxious asshole ENJOY :P

[Cloverleafsk8er]

ok those comments i made below were rplys , idk why they all posted to the front page :/

[northernstate1]

ANGELS DON'T PLAY ALL THESE HAARPS!

[clarkscurse]

hitting houston!! Now they can refugee BACK to Louisiana

[berreth3]

lol no school today on friday!! woot! im sticking in Katy XD

[sidnisunshine]

It's really hard to evacuate. The average drive to downtown for me is about, 20 minutes. Now it's 4 or so hours. We are staying, we are gonna be okay(: Everyone is, my prayers are with anyone and their family who is going to be in this little corner of hell tomorrow.

[TheGuv123]

At least it got rid of all those damn ni...

[sidnisunshine]

d00d, not even funny. this is coming to my house, like tomorrow. I live in Houston D: fcking STUPID. ):

[cmcmillin77]

you should go to Dallas, you would be safe there. I have family in Houston. This is going to be worse than Katrina, cause it's bigger. You need to go at least 100 miles north west to be safe. Take your most important items, cuz the weather channel is talking of a surge, not just slow rising water, but a surge, that will kill hundreds and possibly destroy the town. The surge will supposedly be at least 18 feet high, or more. Leave..

[Kelly499]

dude, just try getting to Dallas from Houston, unless you fly there you'll end up out of gas, riding the storm out on the side of 45 in the middle of nowhere. after my 12 hour drive to Huntsville during Rita--I'm just gonna stay home this time--in spite of the mandatory evac, most of my neighborhood is doing the same thing.

[kellyvette]

this is very sad! i don't think anything on this video is funny at all. i feel really sorry for these people

[Qbanqty]

Sorry Kellyvette but I was referring to this coments, not to the video.

MobergNixon

I hope your mother's penis falls off....

I will not make fun of the situation en Cuba, I am Cuban and seeing this video brought back very sad memories. My family is still there.

[Qbanqty]

that is so funny! LOL

[yeredsdashiznit]

qbanqty i hope the hurricane kills you fuck you you should feel bad for these people not laugh about this vid dumb ass why dont you go stand in front of a 5 story wave then laugh fucker

[Qbanqty]

Look asshole I was not laughing at the video, I was laughing at a coment someone else did replying to a bad coment I was referring to this coment below , NOT TO THE VIDEO

MobergNixon

I hope your mother's penis falls off....

I will not make fun of the situation en Cuba, I am Cuban and seeing this video brought back very sad memories. My family is still there. I am not going to die just because you wish for it.

[KubanBaby]

Eres un pendejo porque qbanqty no se estaba riendo de este video. Es que no leiste el comentario de abajo.

You are an asshole because qbanqty was not laughing at the video. Did you read the comments?

[valebb1]

yeredsdashiznit

Whats wrong with you man? Are you always this stupid or you are making an special offer today? Nobody was laughing at the video assface, it was a replay to a funny comment someone else did.

[blicksflicks]

Has anyone even considered the fact that Russia was sending ships to Cuba and Venezuela, and now this happens? Very ironic. lol

[LeoKinoske]

Really?

HAARP!

[MarcSelon]

yep!!!

[blicksflicks]

Yeah, HAARP. Wonder if they are using it to make things difficult for Russia. You ever know. lol

[clamcrabber]

great footage, love the big waves

[eautocad]

Great coverage, there is some amazing shots in this clip. I gave it 5 stars. :)

[latynguy]

Hey people we are not talking here about war o the embargo or any shit like that we should talk how to help us in Cuba, Im in Cuba and this SAD, Castro took the poor food that we have from the store to save it before save all of us, we dont have anything to eat at home just because the stupid cuban Goverment's plan HELP US!!! and forget about politics this is humanitarian not politic shit.

[gochir]

Ups si les llovio a los hermanos cubanos.. USA STOP BLOQUING CUBA!

[ShadowMario64]

Hurricane Ike: You'll get no sympathy from me.

[Sharma19801]

I hope it destroys all the oil facilities in the Gulf. No more oil, no more wars.

[Vp4lif3]

.......are you 10? What make you think oil rigs in the gulf will stop war? If those rigs are destroyed, gas prices will go up. Making more needs for oil which in turn would cost more war according to your thinking.

[SuziTheDestroyer]

That's funny, there have been wars throughout the history of mankind, long before humans ever thought of using oil. Looks like you have no idea what you're talking about. Hey, I live in a city with a shit load of oil facilities, and is in the path of Ike, you hope it hits me? I hope you get hit by an 18-wheeler.

[Cloverleafsk8er]

No more oil, there goes economy, and once thats gone, were all fucked, because we would ahave nothing, and other countrys would take advantage of our downfall, as messed up as opil costs and such, its really the only thing that keeps us the way we are, we destroy that, then its done

[7uck123]

then we gonna have to use electric metro sexual cars ='(

[squidb8]

Wow I thought I heard of stupid ideas before, but I glad you came along restore my faith.

If Ike took out the facilities in the gulf it wouldn't stop the demand for oil.

[k3304]

hey, why dont they all come to the USA and they can become democrat votes !!

[bex214]

Hey Genius most Cubans in the US are Republicans.You would know if you could read

[Cloverleafsk8er]

ohh shit u just pwnt his comment

[Sixxgrl]

we don't need anymore people here to take our jobs and further cripple our economy, especially when most refuse to learn our language...seal the borders I'm sick of it!

[k3304]

sixxgrl, who says they want to take our jobs ? They want to take our money. Access cards, Section 8, free health care, free schooling, etc

[bleackorama]

Are you taking those "jobs" that they're complaining about?

They're taking all the jobs nobody wants but SOMEONE has do to them. Only the illegal ones (a very small amount compared to the legal ones) cripple our economy.

[Qbanqty]

mmmmm you could kill K3304 and then kill your self, that will help you and the rest of the people that do not want to read or listen to you, discriminating against anybody.

[670chris076]

lol that fat cow nearly fell over lol!

[lccs187]

hahaha lmfao

[atwyatt]

0:33 Holy crap!

[dingoprairie]

I hope it washes away scarcatcher's house as a cat 5

[Cloverleafsk8er]

dido

[sultar881]

[criticalpass]
