Thanks for posting this. I filmed it from near the Berkeley Marina and it didn't look like much, but we could "feel" it, ya know? It was eerie. It's terrifying to think of that same wave thirty feet high. The way it flooded into the inlets near the marina was odd, in the sense that it is so strange to see the water behave that way, despite it's lack of force. I am grateful, and send love to the people of Japan. Thanks again for posting.

I was flying from SFO to LAX that day and it was amazing to look down from 30,000 feet at the waves.

Good quality image.

WOW!! 10 Miles into SF bay!!! across 5000+ miles!!! and still has a crest! thats ALOT of power!

Wave energy should be researched more.
Nature has proved itself as being mightier than anything else so it's time to try and harness a fraction of that power.

Well at least you recorded, and posted, something. Thanks for the vid.

I read in the NY Times the damages of the waves is costing crescent city alone $25 million imagine if it was at full force
Mark: Can you please tell me exactly where you were standing and what direction you were looking when you shot this video? I am a tsunami researcher from USC and I am trying to plot out this wave front on a map of the east bay area. Also, do you have the precise time that you recorded the video? contact me on 'jocabo at mac dot com' or 'jborrero at usc dot edu' looking forward to your reply and thanks for your help!

Why was only 1:13 minutes worth recorded?
Does it disappear after that?

@anicetune yeah you are right, I should have kept it going. It lasted all the way to the shore. Some co workers also recorded some of the wave I'll see if I can get them to post. I also have a short clip of the second wave, but it was much smaller.
