  • That was really smart at the beginning. Getting the boats out as far to sea as possible means survival. As soon as the tsunami approaches the shoreline, the elevated geographical features make the wave grow exponentially. At sea you just roll over a tsunami.

    • Yup. There's a lotta stories how divers were out and it felt like a whirlpool, but they were able to roll over the wave and didn't think much of it. Needless to say, they were devastated as they approached land. Almost 40% of the tsunami victims were kids, so ...

    • @@TheWalkingMerlin There were at least 7 taxi drivers who reported giving rides to ghosts. One reported that he picked up a woman with wet hair who wanted to go to Minamihama, which was then completely washed away. The driver asked “ that place is almost empty, are you sure?” And the woman replied back “am I dead?” before disappearing. Another driver reported that he had picked up a woman who gave her an address, which ended up being a flattened house when they arrived. The driver then asked “are you sure this is the place?” but she had already disappeared

    • The times quoted are NOT Japanese times re the earthquake and the tsunami aftermath. Japan 2.30pm onwards and earthquake MAIN lasts for about 5mins at scale 9 (Richer) with various aftershock earthquake ripple from 7 to 5 scale that lasted for some hours after. The main tsunami hit the coast etc some 20 to 30 minutes later.. The Japanese coastline SANK by 3 metres.. hence the reason why some so called coastal defences etc failed.

  • The voice you hear over the p a system in background is a man that stayed behind and warned people of the sunami coming he did not survive, giving his life to warn others to head for higher ground. Always remember him and his female assistant for warning of the danger they gave their lives to save others.

  • I saw a PBS documentary recently called, "Surviving the Tsunami", and they interviewed the 2 men on the bridge--the one in the green jacket & the one in the light blue. It's a miracle the man in the blue jacket survived. He was caught in his car & managed to get on the roof through a broken window when he approached the bridge. The man in green shouted at him to jump & when the one in blue did, he caught his jacket and pulled him up, saving him. If the guy in green had missed, there was nothing but the sea ahead for the one in blue. They looked so casual talking on bridge; must've been shock.

  • That doggo knew something terrible was coming long before it hit hard. We’re almost 12 years after this horrible event. Japan has become stronger than ever in terms of coming together and trudging forward - the walls have been built taller, stronger, the people have rebuilt what they can, salvaged what was necessary, and kept this day as one for remembrance going forward. It’s so heartbreaking to hear what was laughter and comfortable chit chat turning to sheer panic and horror, witnessing their homes, businesses, anything and everything that they knew being washed away in an instant.

All of the videos that document the Earthquake and Tsunami show that the Japanese people are strong and work together to survive. I can only hope that if I ever experience such an event in my lifetime that my neighbors and friends will be able to display the same qualities of many of the people that I witnessed in these videos.

For some, their offices or homes were not high enough to escape the wave.

    • Unfortunately many of us in the West have no real idea about the sheer destructive power that water in great volume has. Back in 1977, as a 16 year old, I witnessed the power of a Typhoon in Hong Kong and saw a 4 storey block of flats side down the side of a hill, whilst bamboo scaffolding poles thicker than a person's thigh were being plucked from the ground and flung about like cocktail sticks. I was living on the 11th floor of a block of flats and we were flooded by the endless deluge! The one curious aspect of that event was seeing all the boat people from the storm shelters heading out to sea like a small armada - they obviously knew how to handle themselves as they returned the day after intact. Ok, so this experience wasn't as traumatic as this dreadful Tsunami and only 2 people lost their lives that year in Hong Kong, but it made a very deep impression on me and taught me a tough lesson about how wild Nature really is. When the alarm sounds - run like hell!

  • I lived in Oregon at the time of this Tsunami. There was large chunks of debris such as wood structures that floated across the Pacific on ocean currents and washed up on the Oregon coast 6 years after the event. Most pieces of the debris washing up on the west coast had what were considered "invasive species" attached to it. Not sure what those were ..maybe some type of live barnacles ?? But seeing this stuff really brought home the reality of what Tsunamis can do. Sobering stuff for sure.

    • Invasive species are anything from plants to certain animals that aren’t native and could harm native eco systems. For example, if a certain plant showed up in America from another country, it could grow abundant here but in the process take out other plants that were good here. Which would in turn affect what would grow, and eliminate other plants we have here… which would also in turn hurt the animals too because certain animals can’t eat certain plants etc… it can cause a major chain reaction like that. It can be bad enough to where it can affect agriculture. Some plants take in too much water and kill other plants in the process. Those are also considered invasive species. Hopefully that makes sense. If you want an example starlings are a bird that are considered invasive, spotted knapweed is a plant and it’s another example. Also one more thing to note is invasive species can also mean it was native to a state and carried over to another state. So there’s different versions.

  • Much respect to the Japanese citizenry for a few reasons. 1. Documenting water's destructive power as it consumed, then razed their town, but refusing to film the death or peril of another person. I have watched many YT video accounts of this disaster and have not witnessd a single occurrance where the death of another person was filmed for spectacle. 2. There were no news accounts of affected survivors rioting or looting in the weeks and months following the disaster. Hat's off to the BOSS man who suddenly appeared on the bridge at 51:20... With dry hair... Wearing dry clothes... Between tsunami wave pulses... He looked around a short while, then calmly swaggered himself up the hill toward the camera.

Watching the wave crash in to destroy the city at 25:00, then recede and surge back -- a most amazing and horrific hour captured on film.

  • Kind of scary to see how the water goes down at first (lowest point at around 13:10), just look at the harbor and the boat, and the at first slowly and then more quickly starts to rise (compare to 17:00)! I really wonder how many of the boats speeding out of the harbor survived. Hard to imagine being in such situation, the danger is impossible to estimated beforehand, it all seems so calm except for the sirenes and the warnings over the speakers - which always gives me goose bumps. Can't believe how calm the people around the camera stay - and how people did not immediatly seek safety when they saw the water rise again...

  • At the very beginning of the video the water level is quite low. If you drag the "red timeline placement dot" on the timeline through the 12-17 minute mark you can really see the level coming back up without yet a big destructive wave. Pretty interesting physics at play. The camera zooms outward for awhile. Then at the 18 minute mark, you can see the piers that were maybe 10 feet above water level are now completely submerged.

I've never been to Japan though so I don't know the geography. For instance, you see what happened to the millions of residential homes in Indonesia and the other countries from the 2004 tsunami. All sea level residential homes without an advanced warning system or strong earthquake, so in those circumstances it would've been devastating. Not to sure that applies to this one though.
