Recorded on February 27, 2010 using a Flip Video camcorder.

Footage of the ebb and flo in San Diego harbor. Amazing

Please excuse the fact that I didn't edit any of this. I wanted it up right away

I would get my facts strait before commenting on where the earthquake was before making yourself sound like and idiot who doesnt really know whats going .... it was in Japan not Chili, and seriousely standing there filming was not the brightest idea either.

@dirtdiva1998 So hi!! I'm the idiot?? If you would check the date on the video you'll see that this was filmed in 2010!! And the earthquake that caused this surge was in the country of CHILI!! But thanks for playing and have a great day :)

Wow considering the developments in Japan now 2012 looks alot more likely

[gunher01]

@benitofinito We had a tidal surge from Japan's earthquake but it was no where as dramatic as this. Even today we're getting a tidal surge every couple hours.

@benitofinito I will not and you can't make me :) Have a nice day

[gunher01]

Thanks for your input :) You're quite a scholar, and your deduction and reasoning skills are very impressive. Have a great day!!

umm, if you we're expecting a tsunami and you we're watching the water recede,why would you stand there and film?

[DeckApe85]

@dirtdiva1998 Sounds like you're the idiot here. Nice work, Ace.

THUMBS UP IF U LIVE IN SAN DIEGO! i do.... plus seal team six killed osama.... and they where trained in SD (coranado island to be excsat)

It's either a tsunami (caused by the sudden movement of an earthquake) OR a storm surge (caused by a moving storm with high winds). But not a "tsunami storm surge".

Both events can push a lot of ocean water up onto the land, and they've killed hundreds of thousands of people in the last 200 years, but they have different origins. California doesn't have hurricanes (which have storm surges) but it is susceptible to tsunamis.

@dirtdiva1998 Actually you have YOUR facts wrong. If u look at the date on this its Feb 27 2010 which is in fact the Chilean Earthquake Tsunami. I bet u feel dumb now.

@misterwobblehead wow unreal! History in the making.

[misterwobblehead]

@oldwhaler if im so right, then why bother fussing at me....its not the first time tsunami waves have visited Cali, happened after the chilean quake, happened in 2007 for some other eartquake...seems like once every couple of years or maybe 3, something rattles the ocean and sends a decent wave your way
