  • @neogogo2 Most of the people there had no idea what a tsunami was, the whole world isn't as educated as us bro

  • This is so sad... I was in Thailand, in Phuket a few years ago, and I was standing on the beach just thinking of the people who died and how shocked they were when they saw the first big wave coming in.. I know I would have been in shocked !.

  • @Highroller33138 Because this wasnt an actual Tsunuamo, KOH LANTA beach is known for its massive waves, dont be such as arse

  • Remember you don't see something like that everyday and some do run when its too late but i reacon some of that is shock , disbelief. If i saw that coming id be in shock...

  • whoa

  • what i though the water was 10m off the ground or is that the small tsunami that happened before

  • water just nomnommed the beach

  • @neogogo2 What the hell was so confusing about the GIANT MOTHERFUCKING WALL OF WATER that was coming right at them and NOT getting smaller? That's what I'd like to know...

  • And then the bigger waves come in... :(

  • @Highroller33138 Because most people on the beach were tourists, Can't you hear the american woman say "OH MY GOD RUN!" They didnt't know that was Tsunami forming, In Koh Lanta, Thailand, Jamaica, And Hawaii those huge waves form all the time. They just didn't suspect it.
