I am watching this at the moment and it is going to be the biggest natural disaster of our lifetime. I wouldn't be surprised if 2 million people died as a result of this earthquake/Tsunami.

Amazing clip. That water is moving so fast swallowing up whole fields in seconds and even the people driving cars dont stand much chance of escaping it. Very scary indeed.

 

[Golfmmad]

That is absolutely devastating and horrific to watch!

We complain about our weather, this puts it in perspective of how lucky we really are.

Words just can't express how I feel for the Japanese people right now.

Golfmmad.

 

[John_Findlay]

OMG. This looks mad. Absolutely devastating. As well as the human impact it ain't gonna be good for the world economy. Sheesh.

 

[Robobum]

Amazing site to see, just the shear speed and power of the wave. Then to see the cars turning round and trying to outrun it, totally horrific and very upsetting.

Thoughts and hopes are with everyone there.

 

[StrangelyBrown]

The tsunami is due to strike other parts of the world within the next few hours.

This isn't over yet.

 

[thecraw]

Poor New Zealand is looking like getting it again as well so soon after their own disaster. The world can be a frightening place.

 

[pokerjoke]

Shocking,the speed is frightening,hopefully it wont hit anywhere else so badly,fingers crossed.

 

[sawtooth]

Thoughts and prayers for all the Japanese people (excluding Japanese whale, dolphin and shark hunters)

terrible scenes,the sheer power of these things is scary ,u really cant fully appreciate it even seeing the pictures on the tv

thoughts and sympathies to everyone affected by it

 

[Aztecs27]

Seriously not cool.

Thoughts are with the people of Japan.

Praying it doesn't hit the West Coast of the States. I have alot of friends and Family in Seattle and they're currently on Tsunami advisory there.

Lives and livlihoods destroyed in seconds.....horrific

 

[MKDave]

It truly horrific. Makes me feel sick to think of all those helpless people out there. Quite hard to take in just how bad it potentially could be.

Scary stuff

 

[need_my_wedge]

Three weeks from now, I'm on my way there......

Fortunately my wife's family are not affected and we have been in communication with them, but I'm still waiting to hear from other friends.

 

[Wildrover]

I was in Bande Ache after the boxing day Tsunami whilst in the RN. These were scenes I really didn't want to see ever again. The devastation where the water has been will be total, there will be nothing left. I'd never seen anything like it and hoped I never would again. Brings back some very bad memories.

 

[Yerman]

Was lucky enough to visit Japan a few years ago, beautiful country and amazing, lovely people, what a dreadful thing to happen, my thoughts are with them.

 

[Herbie]

We are so lucky.

I was amazed at the low number of dead reports i saw, I am certain in the end the toll will be massive and saddening.
My heart goes out to Japan at this moment.

 

[Basher]

Horrific. What else can you say?

 

[Gillespie16]

Cant belieive it, Everything disappeared in seconds.
Gonna take years get over it.
