Japanese Tsunami Inside Car View

Amazing footage. I wonder if he was using a GoPro HD. it looks like it.
 
Holy crap, that would have sucked to be in that car man. All those poor people just going on with there life's had everything turned around in a second.
Makes me glad to live in a country were we don't worry about natural disasters like that.
 
So who's going to translate this for us ?

on a side note.. some of those cars float pretty good.

kinda funny to see the guy close his door after jumping out. guess he didnt want anyone stealing it.
 
obviously the movies have it wrong, cars don't sink into the river after plunging into it, people should just stay put and float down stream...or the japanese are craftier than that for tsunami death prevention and all cars float over there...hmmm...
 
WTF do you do in that situation?
Too much big debris to even get out and grab on to something stable or you'll get crushed. Water is moving too fast, and once it starts heading back out to sea, you're almost SOL...
Best bet I guess is to try and get out at the right time when you're close enough to a tree or something and climb up.

Apparently sit and wait in shock and when the car starts to sink gtfo.

Insane really, one second you're driving minding your own business and the next you're floating

Ummm might want to learn a little more about this country... The east coast gets beated down by storms all the time and the west coast... well vancouver island was on the warning list for a tsunami... not nice to have to wake your mother up and ask her to stay on higher ground.

Not to mention earth quakes and BC is in the ash zone if mount st helen blows again.
 
Thats so said, A lot of people must've drowned in their cars. That guy who got out of the car and ran must've drowned. Their insurance rates must've went through the roof.

Umm I know a fair bit about this country and can't remember last time we got hit by a tsunami or major earth quake. Or volcano for that
matter. Obviously your at risk anywhere on the planet, but as far as geological safety were pretty well off.
Speaking off..... Big asteroid heading our way, closest will be tmro at 6:38 and will pass between us and our moon. It's the size of a aircraft carrier and capable of wiping out all life on the planet.
Now that would be a tsunami, bunker down folks the end is near ;).
 
one things for sure, my parkour skills to obtaining higher ground would definitely improve...if the water didn't catch me first...

Fark, I haven't bought my arms yet, I need it so I can live off the grid. I guess I should stock up on some crossbows
