This is probably one of the most spectacular videos of the tsunami. The concrete building on the right-side of the sea wall at around 1:00 really gives a good reference point to how high the waves get. Judging by the sea wall, and the height of the second storey, the wave looks to be about 9 metres.
that poor little girl ,watching her world be destroyed before her eyes...words can not express my sorrow for the people of Japan...May God take you under his protection..
Terrifying. I can't even imagine going through this. Makes me realize how much I take for granted. Good luck to everyone in Japan. I love you all and am thinking about you. I wish there was more I could do.
notice the people at the upper left corner of the building 2:05 ... that must be a spectacular horrifying show from their point of view ... condolences for all the people of Japan ..
Coitados...Que desespero!

Does anyone know if those people on the corner of the building 2:02 min into the video survived?

@cherbear826
They may have survived this. Well at least the initial part that was captured on film. I think I see the building still standing at 4:09

To people wondering if that's a person, above the car, at 3:50, it's not. It's just something waving in the wind.
It does look like someone running at 1:00 though...

That is absolutely horrible. I hope whoever took this (and everyone in the area) is OK somehow. Just very hard to watch....
