  • you are going to die (._.)

  • FAKE. Worst CGI ever.

  • @elegantmarketer your ignorance is amusing yet depressing

  • Comment removed

  • but the surf is so good! 1:00

  • crazy hey

  • why is the water black?

  • @Miss11Manda11 The black water is the silt from the bottom of the bay that was churned up by enchroaching tsunami coming into the area

  • considering japan is the most tsunami prepared country in the world i would hate to think what will happen when one hits california

  • As tragic as that day was it is even more a shame that this person dubbed the original video and sped it up to look more tragic, common people not very nice have some respect. RIP to all who lost there lives.

  • There is an upload on my channel of an over two hour video of the wtc attacks, that was not released for nearly a decade. It is the most complete account in real time that has ever surfaced. If you give yourself over to merely listening to it, in its entirety.. you will have more of an understanding about that day; from another perspective, than you have gained from anything you have ever looked, and listened to about 9/11. Only the too proud, would disagree. Put asside the time to know?

  • Moral of the story - if you live in a Tsunami zone, build out of concrete with foundations securely tied down. All those wooden houses/buildings with no foundation tie-downs were turned into matchsticks in a nanosecond.

  • @ArthurDentZaphodBeeb Problem is they also live in a earthquake zone. So buildings that are built to resist tsunami are death traps in strong earthquakes and then again in the same area they experience typhoons. So they got to either build for the most likely disaster or find a way of designing a building that can handle every kind of disaster. Very hard to do. Better to create a good early warning system and add that to a population well drilled in emergency response.

  • @AdstarAPAD Sorry, but I live in California and I know it is possible to design for maximum credible earthquakes with only minor cost increase (perhaps 20%). A properly designed concrete building is inherently safer than wood framed housing. And if you are in a well-know Tsunami zone, the idea that early warning system will work is delusional fantasy - no way to evacuate large numbers of people in time to make much of a difference.

  • @ArthurDentZaphodBeeb A concrete building does nothing to save a person in a tsunami if the water comes over the house and it's roof ends up 20 feet below the surface. What the governments need to do is set up buildings spaced out within the suburbs that are both earthquake resistant and high enough to be a safe refuge when a tsunami hits. Bangladesh is often hit my storm induced surges on its coast. They built a number of high refuges near villages for the people to flee to gain safety.

  • @AdstarAPAD Of course it won't help if fully submerged. But vast majority of homes weren't completely submerged - they were simply swept away or crushed into matchsticks. The only buildings that survived were concrete...

  • @AdstarAPAD The National Geographic magazine this month issue shows the tsunami story including the mayor of the town that is no more survived by hanging on to the antennae above third story building(demolished) there was 30 people on the roof next day less than ten.

  • All that destruction, but the chair is unscathed and still in the same place I left it, Amazing.

  • How about look at that street with everyday life passing by and what is coming for them. rest in peace. oh and the americand media, ya they bacame unintersted in Japan not long after. 0:21

  • this is the town of Miyako, Kesennuma and possibly Sendai port area.

  • maybe car companies can start to produce hermetically sealed cars! At least people won't drown in them!

  • JESUS

  • JESUS

  • Kudo's to you for uploading this without trying to be 'dramatic' by slow-motioning it down. It's an frikkin' Tsunami...it is dramatic enough on it's own.

  • Shortly after this video 5 Car insurance companies go out of business lol.

  • Uh, they should really clean their water.......oh wait there goes the yacht oh that $10,000,000 dollars down the drain :(

    

  • I'm sorry but this footage pales in comparison to the people trying to run up a hill with others in wheelchairs getting swallowed by the waves. 1/2 of that group were swept away within 2 minutes.

  • Holy shit, it doesn't even look like water. It looks like a hick black veil of smoke enveloping everything.

  • @UndeadWolfofAshes LOL for a second i thought it had been edited to look just like you describe hehehe

  • The ocean is mad you ate all the fish

  • And I thought, I do a lot of car damage in GTA SA... Scary

  • what if i just ingested 3 lbs of lcd well over a hour ago and somebody needs to call 911 but they dont believe me because im still typing on the internet like a keyboard soldier thinking i'm communicating to the world when its just the lcd? Did you ever think of that? Or did you simply judge me insane? What if i didnt know it was L.C.D.? What if someone spiked my drink and im about to be date raped and nobody will call 911? Why must i get date raped to prove my points?

  • did an yone else click off this within 5secs cuz of the totally wank quality?

  • When mother nature awake

  • I'd Sooo Go Surfing There.

  • Those cars were just like toys!

  • if there is a god he fuckin must hate asians coz he fucks with them bigtime

  • @DACHRONIKDISTRIBUTER exactly why there can't be a God. The Asians have been worshipping invisible deities for longer than anyone.

  • @Kleinfurkon God would have to be at FAULT to permit all these terrors? What if GOD is not magical enough to stop these terrors? What if God cant stop what it started because god is BLIND? What if god was putting things together one day and BOOM a big bang goes off by accident BLINDING god leaving god in the dark? What if humans come along years later and start god hating so much we repeatedly keep acting out our terror by killing each other and all things simply because we secretly hate god?

  • @emitreppotz I don't think 'God hating' is what is at issue here. No-one hates God (unless they're religious and they don't like the form the other guy's god has taken). The idea 'God' hates anyone is in itself hateful, because then a framework for hate has been created. And from there, anything can be excused as long as it is in line with what 'God' has decreed

  • @Kleinfurkon yes i agree 100%. You would have to reread the specific POST i was replying to. He posted that god cant exist. The idea that ANYTHING other then the KNOWN cant EXIST is created from the feeling that one desires no god to EXIST.That said the yin n yang of nature created your reply after CONSIDERING gods existence as you perceived the idea that god hates anyone is in itself hateful witch is bang on. That idea was created from feelings of energy within all of us to some degree.

  • @Kleinfurkon yeah and they get fucked over by natural disasters

  • so heartbreaking

  • Japs are most racists and arrogant peoples of the earth, this is punishment on them for calling other people 'Gaijin'

  • @altjff15 That's a remarkably ironic, and hypocritical, comment. Go look in a mirror if you wish to see a racist.

  • @altjff15 how could you say that, knowing thousands of people died in Japan, your horrible

  • That sea wall was like 15 feet high too

  • Comment removed

  • @islandboiitsi And what the fuck are they supposed to light their homes and business' with??? If you did a little research you would see that Japan is not resource rich...nuclear is the only option. But I guess all you eco-moonbats would rather have the good people of Japan live in caves lit by torches. Moron.

  • @islandboiitsi All you know is prejudice.

  • @islandboiitsi yes you are 100% correct and the stupids put the water pumps of the reactor in the basement (against GE manufacturer's recommendation) causing them to fail and resulting in spreading fackin radiation all over the world, selfish assholes

  • @altjff15 Encouraged back in the 80`s by the UK`s Prime Minister (No really)!

  • Well i dont know how to like the video or dislike this video!

  • black water??

  • @IAMSAM1234567890 The currents stirred up the bottom of the bay and inlet like being hit with a fire hose. There was a similiar look in the 2004 Christmas wave.

  • japanese rly like white cars.

  • I wonder why so many had not evacuated. Didn't they get a warning of a tidal wave?

  • @strawberryseason Yes, what you are seeing is a almost empty part of the city, only a few people stayed with their homes thiniking them high enough or far enough away form the water, or in some cases just wanted to see, humans are not that smart when trouble comes,some just want to see if its real. Its a good thing japan has one of the best systems in the world or the death toll would have reached hundreds of thousands and possible even million.

  • @candr Thanks for the info. What baffles me is that there were several cars going down the street (at the top left of the screen, at 0.22). Those people would have been killed or injured, with the force of the wave. If they knew a tidal wave would follow the earthquake, they all should have fled. Helicopters could have been sent off shore to confirm the tsunami and then warn the citizens. But it seems, as you say, that most people did evacuate.

  • @strawberryseason Ture they should flee, but there are those that need to make sure others have gone or others that think they have time. I know of one person that told me foolishly "Its just water, they can swim out" a lot of folk actually believe that,even after this. As for the copters,they were out there, but waves are hard to see until they get near, ships did report it, but they only had minutes to get out of the areas and it was a very big area, and one this size had not hit in decades.

  • like flushig a turd

  • there is a tsunami warning people....why are you driving near the harbor??? Why are you anywhere near the water??

  • dang....i would have been so scared!

  • You can see a guy running at 0:20 and a car going by ...

  • How did all the concrete buildings disappear ? This video isn't factual.

  • I wouldn't want to be on any of thos boats when they tippd over. I guess thy weren't strong enough to go in the opposite direction. The water is black, black. This ain't Aruba, that's for sure. I don't think I'll be moving to Miyako anytime soon. I pray for the people on the boat and in this city. What a nightmare. God be with you.

  • @XanderZane does it matter if the water was black that was a stupid comment white black or blue it will kill you the same num nuts

  • @XanderZane saskatchewan's where you want to be hahahahhahaha

  • @XanderZane "God be with you."

    Difficult to say if he is, since he caused the tsunami in the first place!  Cool it on the praying part. God knows what else he's up to....

  • @XanderZane god be with them,,if he is real then why would the piece of shit do this,,women children and men,,god,,what a joke

  • @nooki1102 What?! You think God plays with the weather for fun, so sorry but he does not do that, nor does he interfere with physics like gravity etc. God created the earth and it functions as it does based on the laws of physics. What he did not create was sin, we choose that because we want to be in control and all that it brings to our fellow human beings and what we do to each other. Take care.

  • @monorailred1 Dont bring god into a subject such as a Tsunami by all means hold still your tongue . Such a creature does not belong in reality , a being that is more so just an illusion based off of faith , hope , and beliefs , not really logical science what so ever . By all means keep your imagination some were else ,what this here shows is something that is real and did happen . Sin has nothing do with countless people dieing so shove your religious views up your ass. :)

  • @thedivineadvenger1 I was talking to nooki1102, not you, who are obviously an angry lonely soul. Of course this was a horrible event but God had nothing to do with it.

  • @monorailred1 By far not a lonly soul as you say , What I am saying is leave your imaginary god out of this because he doesnt exist . There is no god , or this shit wouldnt happen and my gf since I am apparently lonely lets put some fact in here lost 6 people to march 11th , this is just six people out of so many during this event . So take your religion else were mabye talk about it on a video with a cartoon because it doesnt belong in reality .

  • @thedivineadvenger1 You tell me to leave God out of it yet you blame him. Why? I understand completely that this event has hurt you deeply. You can either spend your life in terrible sorrow and anger looking for someone to blame or accept that this was an event of nature. Look at all the terrible things that happen in nature, it's simply human beings in the way of nature. No selection by God. I am sorry if I offended you. A testimony of my faith. Can you apoligize?

  • best place would probably be aboard one of the boats

  • Fuck that's hectic!! Waters black with debris.

  • Comment removed

  • why was the water black?

  • @BuddyBme123

    I am really wondering the same thing...I hope someone answers this question!

  • @xxXNeffXxx

    Its a mixture of mud or sand of sea floor. Sea water was stirred by strong turbulent flow of tsunami.

  • @BuddyBme123 the waves went through farmland so i guess the dirt mixed with the water

  • @BuddyBme123 its coming from Satan

  • OMG!! You could actually surf on the street! that really shouldn't even be possible! ;O

  • Oh God stop be hypocrite. When you buy anything made in china, the most is made by children who lives somethin more had than those people.

    And nature takes its revenge. have u heard somethin about sharks? They cut their fins and let them suffer for hours before dying. And its just an example, japanese have always been cruel and disrespectful with animals and nature.

    My comment isn't rascit and i'm not sayin that people deserve that they DON'T deserve that. But there's no smoke without fire.

  • those ppl facing dead, but the cameraman enjoy recording video. LOL

  • Why couldnt that have been iran instead of japan,

  • Comment removed

  • @TheAstonfan  Idiot..

  • @TheAstonfan

    That was not cool....no one that the tsunami from Hurricane Katrina was boring. No one thought the earthquake in haiti was boring. When live are at stake especially childrens live is not a laughing matter nor considered "boring" ....smh

  • the thing is , from my heart i wouldnt be able to record this and watch as many lives are taken ..

  • and I get scared when the toilet overflows

  • That sound knock knock. After tsunami I think them calling ghost on the way to know themselves dead

  • One cubic meter of water weighs one ton! So imagine the force all this water had on buildings.

  • i don;t want to compare as these are horrible disaster, but when the Tsunami happen in Indonesia in 2004, many heartless people insult it by saying these people deserve it, but when it happen in Japan, not many heartless people do some insulting. is that because Japan is first grade country? or maybe this open their eyes that disaster could happen everywhere.

  • @ThePutraUSman I can´t believe what I'm reading...really??? How can be people like that?? I don't wish this tragedy to anyone.. not even to my worst enemy! That one was also a tragedy shown in our TV news... my family and friends felt very sad and afraid too.. I do fear nature.. these tsunamis and eartquakes are really scary and unpredictable

  • @ThePutraUSman U got it right ...

  • that shit sounds like a banshee howling in the beginning...and wtf is the deal with the metronome sound at the end?

  • Jesus Christ !

  • @43VA89 watch what you say and how you say JESSUS, ... GOD IS COMMING say a prayer for people of japan and the rest of human race

  • good thing i dont have a car

  • sounds like a toilet after i shitted and flushed lol

  • It always make me cry :/

    

  • dude....Where's my car?

  • it's like fuckin 2012

  • those who made it to the top were calm. i saw footage of some people jus taking their time very casual. they didn't make it

  • When you think your having a bad day. Just shout the hell up.

  • What it don't destroy on the way in, it finish's off on it's way out.

  • That's awful for the Japanese. I do feel so bad for all those people who died or lost everything. But those whaling boats did need to go. That's all I'll say.

  • holy shit! they didnt stand a chance!

  • AND WE THINK WE,VE GOT PROBLEMS!! WHAT ABOUT THE EARTHQUAKE JAPAN KNOWS IT,S ON A MAJOR FAULT LINE AND ALL i CAN DO IS WISH THEM THE BEST.. gOOD LUCK jAPAN

  • These damn tsunamis are the most amazing thing I'll ever see in my life.

  • @SixFootTallMidget ha ha ha ha kirsty alley gud one

  • why are the water black color? o.O

  • @smosh1303 It's sand / dirt.

  • That will teach you for hunting the whales lmao now that mother nature is getting back for the injustice you'z slant eyes run around for help and pretend to be the victim ?? I reckon more of you cunts should have died

  • God, that's horrible. Apart from the obvious human tragedy, it must be absolutely soul-destroying to see the place you live so wrecked.

    Japan is still having a hard time of it a couple of months short of 1 year later. We should not forget this just because it's no longer a 'recent' event (it is really, but in shallow media terms it isn't...)

  • Deepest sympathies to the people affected. Terrible to watch.

  • Comment removed

  • VERY WELL DONE.

  • worked as a star on TV ASAHI SOS SAve Our SOuls fro 2003-2007 and I qeqnt to this very same prefecture and Ibaraki the people there were so beautiful I love them deeply deeply and will never forget them I miss a Japan if only I could go to visit them perhaps and give them help and support

  • why are the water black?

  • lot of white vans

  • в страшном сне такое не приснится...((((

  • Oh wow i can film the tellie too man so good

  • it almost looks fake OMG my heart goes out to them...

  • i know this is way off topic, really it is even though i feel terrible for japan, have you ever noticed there arent that many toyotas in japan even though they manufacture them?

  • I love Japan :'(

  • this is a recording of a recording of a recording done with a electric toaster

  • ah so

  • hope that there were no people on the small boat at 0:45

  • Something tells me the uploader just wanted a bunch of views so that he tried to put up a bunch of descriptions that doesn't really describe the video correctly.

    1. There are like 5 different videos, not one.

    2. Those were different towns and not just the 'Miyako'

    3. The first video compared to the last video are NOT the same place.

    I hope the lives affected by the tsunami/earthquake can rebuild and still live a happy life.

  • @xDarkxJonx like you even know moron.....fuckingloser d bag kid.

  • when that wave went dow the rails i got freaked out! poor japan i wish god could save them

  • The scariest thing is watching the ocean just rise. Nothing you can do but watch. You cant run...you think you find a safe place on top of a building until the one next to you floats away. Those japanese people didnt deserve it, this coming from a white American "redneck" from the country. Nature is scary.

  • This is second hand "amateur" footage...taken from the t.v!!!

  • man this is a horrible that that ever happened! i for sorry for the people, the toilet paper, cars, toilet paper, the pets, the toilet paper, family. oh dont forget the toilet paper

  • @JessicaNtheChipettes toilet paper?

  • Comment removed

  • nossa sera que a agua e preta igual do video???/

  • thats alot of white mini vans

  • Man, this is horrific...my heart goes out to the people of Japan! And to the people writing stupid, racist, bigoted, quasi- religious or just plain nasty comments on these videos: are you actually intelligent enough to comprehend what you're watching? Are you remotely capable of simulating human emotion? Are you entirely devoid of anything approaching human empathy? What the f@#k is wrong with you? Are you actually retarded or is that just the way it comes across? Grow up!

  • @shinzembi Thank you for writing that. I hate it that people are so heartless to people who go through tragedies like this. Nobody deserves to go through something like a tsunami. My heart and prayers go out to all the people affected by this and to those affected and still haunted by the 2004 tsunami.

  • @shinzembi its no necesary to mention retarded..,...cause the people who borned in this way have beauty heart, the people who talks shit about this scary video are just ignorants, and we all should just ignore them....God bless japan and the rest of the world

  • @shinzembi

    Do you really expect REASON from religious people? :p

    Religion promotes the death of others.

  • o fuck the ship ?

  • OIL SPILL ALERT!!

  • Damn..It looks insane..One thought that struck me..The Japanese must love white cars..They were all white..

  • GLOBAL ALERT:

    John Moore - Mega-Tsunami from the Canary Islands!

    Oct-27-2011--According to John Moore, in a recent interview with Dr. Bill Deagle on the Nutrimedical Report, there is an increased possibility of a super mega-tsunami coming from the Canary Islands in the coming weeks.

    Scientific research is predicting that an eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcano, at La Palma in the Canary Islands would result in a massive mega-tsunami that would reach the East Coast of America.

    INFO-AWARENESS

  • @88888FORCE and where did you get this?

  • @info 145--how does your comment relate to what happened in Japan? By the way Sodom and Gomorrah suffered destruction not because of what they did or didn't do to the ocean.

  • omg just usual cars where is GTR ? and why every car is white? cake is lie

  • at school like 2 days before this happened we were learning about tsunami's Ironic isnt....

  • @chloemstar 2 days before I met yu my I was watching a video abut cum whores? Ironic isnt...

  • @ENDOFANAGEMUSIC Hmm very Ironic

  • @chloemstar :D at least you took it on the chin!

  • crazy how the wave absolutely pushes everything off its way.

  • This is so unbelievable. It almost looks like CGI at first

  • Why is the water black?

  • @AgathaBeso123 from all the black haired asians

  • @TiKiMaN3000 ... Really.

  • @AgathaBeso123 The ocean isn't exactly clear in the beginning and with all the debris, it's get's dirty

  • legit like day after tomorrow

  • i heard 2012,the end of the world is near.

    the cause of all of the tsunami's was a fat kid walking causing earthquakes and earthquakes causing tsunami's
