It's terrifying in a whole different way. When you hear Tsunami, you expect a massive wave that towers over buildings. In reality, it's subtle. Quiet, yet deadly. It's undetectable until the last possible minute, and by then, for most it's too late. Nearly 20,000 dead from that. Gives me chills every time I think about it.
The unfortunate part is that it was 9 minutes from the end of the earthquake until the water started rushing in. Even if they had been properly warned from the very second the earthquake ended, there still would have been a struggle to get to high ground. Such a tragedy
It actually is detectable because tsunamis are caused by earthquakes in the ocean. Which is a good thing because if they were truly "tidal waves" like movies depict then we'd never be able to survive them
My father is in the military and we were stationed in Okinawa and he was one of the clean up crew. He said it was their job to clean up as much as possible. He said they came across 10+ bodies a day and that he came across a ditch one day while they were cleaning and he had slipped and fell into the ditch and he had saw a mother clinging to her child in a car. He has PTSD from it still to this day. They also had a reactor meltdown so he and his battalion were exposed to a lot of radioactive material.
My grandfather was occupying forces in 1945 and also exposed to a lot of radioactive material when he was sent into Nagasaki shortly after they dropped the bomb there :(
@@Anonymous-jf2gy very cold of you to mention this to a person who’s grandfather was affected by the war. It was justifiable in your opinion but to many others it wasn’t.
16,000 people died from this and many were missing. Must have been a nightmare. I’m finally feeling grateful in life. This is stuff you would see in movies to a lot of people.
@@nilisharao3343 covid is not a natural disaster. We can control it and decrease it although its hard. Natural disasters on the other hand, can't be controlled.
Thank you to the person who shot and stabilized this footage. 10 years on and it's still as epic as the day it happened. Japanese people are strong and stoic. I wish everyone in Japan good spirit and peace.
@faizankaleem9613 mother natur is epic, it looks wierd and has so much power. Still terrifying and Rip to all those people. But your can't deny that it looks incredible, horrifying and yes, maybe epic.
Yeah that's one of the scariest things. Tsunami makes you think of this giant wall of water - but in actual fact you hardly see it coming until it's too late.
I remember as a child hearing about this, our teachers and adults in somewhat of a shock and told us about what happened and most of us haven't even understood the concept of death in other countries yet. Getting older, it's absolutely devastating to see this kind of footage again.
the fact that they start off saying “wow” and trying to warn the people on the cars and then end with “what is this....everything is over” made me so sad
@@ruby5903 well at first it's a lot of "wooww, omg" and then after the water starts flowing over they say "what is this?!" several times. When they were yelling/screaming in the beginning it seems like they were warning people. Honestly, the dude recording is narrating a lot of what you see happening in the video.
They were even warning someone on the streets riding a bicycle to come up to where they were because the waves are coming. They kept on saying why did this happen its the same as before.
How at 5:59 the guys like, "Ah, my car is done for." "Done for." "Everything is done for." "What is this? What about that guy from before?? What the hell is this??" He just keeps asking what's going on and questioning reality. It's crazy. I can only imagine experiencing this firsthand. I would have shit my pants.
Japan people, don't worry, no tsunami or natural calamities can stop u guys, the most hard and smart workers in the world are Japanese, feel proud about your nation...I pray that those innocent souls must rest in peace who lost their lives in this tragedy...I always loved Japan, it was a nightmare for me I was in 4th standard when this poor thing had happened..I watched this calamity in Television live in 2011...I'm from India (from Tamil Nadu, the worst hit Indian state in 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami)...Long live Japan🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵
This is more terrifying considering the fact that Japan basically has NO SHITTY DESIGN, in their cars, infrastructure, houses, etc. This country is well known for its structural designs against natural disasters, and when you see this is what the tsunami happens to these strong buildings, god knows what would the same tsunami do to our own cities.....
A lot of the houses in Japan are only designed to be lived in (and last) for 20-40 years, then torn down and a new one build on the same property. Very odd to be perpetuated in an area where tsunamis are relatively common and more western style concrete based buildings would likely to be left standing tbh.
My older brother and wife we're supposed to go their that week but they missed their flight by a few minutes. And my family and I really thankful for that, otherwise we would have lost them.
@@william4661 How is that relevant? To him it is literally everything. He may have lost everything material, but kept the one thing that every other thing depends on. Whereas the people drowning in the street lost literally everything.
Exactly 10 years back I remember coming back from school and watching the live news . I felt SAD deep down in my heart I felt sad... for the people who lost their lives, for the loved ones who went missing, the innocent animals that couldn't escape, the things that got shattered, the fear in each one if they could survive this calamity. Nature is beautiful and deadly at the same time. Huge respect for the people of Japan who gained the spirit to constantly work n move on 💜 India
that nigga Tomioka ruclips.net/video/HLVSpuQ4sk0/видео.html I watched this on tv last name (on a Japanese channel called NHK it’s an amazing resource if you want to know more about Japan’s culture. The people speak English as well to translate the things said in Japanese).. What was interesting is that the tsunami was a silent one, meaning it didn’t set off any alarms. The tsunami moved at a rapid pace due to the constant shifting of the tectonic plates, so it would have been too late by the time everyone started to find out about it.
After this Tsunami we went there to spend our Honeymoon as helping those people for 26 days. Anyone can get in such situation, be helping one another in time of need is true humanity. By the way I come from India and my wife is from Hong Kong.

This is the most filmed disaster in human history. I talk to my friends about the massive destructive power of water during a tsunami and recomend watching the hundreds of youtube videos documenting the tragedy in Japan 2011. The way the water just wipes out a building and leaves a gray cloud from the attic's dust popping like a tiny bubble. It's the advance warning system they had in place that saved millions of people...and very little looting at all. This is how a secular society takes care of itself instead of praying and waiting for a magical being to do it for them. Thank you Japan for showing the world how to be king, caring and logical during a major disaster.
If you watch it very slowly you can see it fly behind the mountain in the background, but because it is so huge it looks as if it's way closer than that
There was a survey on NHK just a few days ago from the affected area. 30% report little or no progress in rebuilding. 53% say no decontamination efforts occurred after the nuclear accident. This is 10 years after the disaster. It couldn't be further from your claim. People are still suffering and need more support.
from Japan, Fukushima When I watched this viedo at first, I was too young to understand all of comment in English. Now,I'm watching it again. I'm really sad that some people don't feel it's serious. however I'm really glad that there are many people who face to this video and pray that their soul may rest in peace.
Don't try to rationalize human beings lack of empathy to things like this. It will only bring you pain and more confusion. Some people just aren't born with the capacity to feel anything outside of themselves.
RIP. I wonder if the people driving by survived in their cars. you can see cars driving by at 5:53 in the background. I hope those people survived the tsunami. That would be so scary.
Heart Breaking to see an entire town taken in minutes. Prayers for the dead and the living. Almost 10 years, but still so sorry for your losses, Japan.
@Sarah Dyck Really? My father was in the NAVY in the Pacific Theater during WWII and he hated Japanese people afterwards. And I get that, after his experience. But I've always found the Japanese culture interesting and would LOVE to visit Japan and learn about it. But to each, their own...
One enormous value to videos such as this, and a reason to watch them to the end, is not just to sympathize with the enormous suffering of those involved, but also to see how tsunamis happen. They are not like enormous Hawaiian surfing waves usually. They are like waves that came in, but don’t go out again. This is what makes them so deceptive. This is how my father, my brother, and I got caught in a tsunami. Had we seen an enormous wave, we’d have run. The Japanese are so much more aware of tsunamis than we are in New Zealand.
I learned in school that tsunami give warning and that warning is when the sea started to draw back and that how you know there a tsunami coming and best way to avoid one is to get on higher ground like hill, mountain etc. R.I.P everyone who die there, you will be forever miss by the people and your love ones.
And most of all, not everybody, during their daily jobs/deeds looks at the level of the sea. As an example, the cars driving calmly in these video seconds before the water blew out. Its a matter of minutes and really you just have to be lucky and see it coming
Someone yelled watashitachiha shikujirimashita! (we're screwed). How about the boats and cars flung around like toys? This was real and terrifying. If it ain't concrete, it's going down. Rule....don't live at sea level.
@@iloveyoubff6751 because geography decided it They are on a geographic location that suffers earthquakes frequently, and earthquakes in water lead to tsunamis All these tsunamis wouldnt happen if earthquakes didnt happen soo frequently AND soo strongly, because the earthquake that caused this was a 9.3 magnitude one And so you get an idea of how bad that is, lets just say 9.3 magnitude is ridiculously strong, Ive been on a 6.3 magnitude one and it was already pretty bad, a 9.3 one must be ridiculous So to sum it up: earth's shaky shaky is to blame for this
Yes, same here with a sighting on a 9/11 video.. but when I pointed it out to my mom, she'd noticed it on another Japanese tsunami video. Very odd.. all caught on tape!
jaime prentiss that was a crow and I watched it multiple times on several large screens and there is absolutely zero smokescreen. Even in slow motion, it's simply the Shadows of the landscape behind.
I agree with some other Commenters on this. I can Speak, Read, Write and Listen to Japanese and when you understand what they are saying, it's that much more deep. Basically, "Heeeeey!!!!!!!!" "Get ooooout!!!!!!" "The heck is going on?" "What is that?" "It's over..." etc. When you get the message, it really hits hard.
If the water starts getting un-usually past the normal shore line,it's nature's final warning before waving you out,just like lightning,when the hair goes up,lightning comes down,on you though.
That is absolutely terrifying and relentless. All those helpless people. Its hard to believe the level of destruction. Rip to all the poor souls caught up in this. 🙏
I'm proud of Japan . They handled the aftermath very well and heads on . They didn't even ask help from other countries because they know they can handle it on their own . Such a strong country indeed. I'm proud of the country even though I'm a Filipino .

I hope your school didn't teach you to be dumb or stupid
5:50 The Sea still up to 753.99 5:55 The Sea Still Up to 754.09m (Alarming) 9:40 The Sea rapidly intensfied 754.81 11:45 The Sea Rapidly Intensfied 756.00 (3rd Alarm) 14:10 The Sea is down 755.89 (2nd Alarm)
1:30 there is a tentacle that shoots up from the water, followed shortly after by a massive black bird that seems to vanish mid air? There used to be a few videos talking about this with zoomed in footage but they seem to be deleted?
11 years later this is still so horrific and scary to watch. I can’t even imagine what these people who witnessed all of this and survived must’ve been thinking. The power of the water once it breached the sea wall is the most haunting part, it was just pure power unleashed by nature in the form of water.
The location of where the Tsunami took place in this part of Japan happened in the Shinkawacho district of Miyako, Iwate Japan. This was filmed from an upper floor of the Miyako City Hall.
I remember watching this in class with one of those tiny tvs that they provided in the class. Never thought I would reexperience that gut wrenching feeling that I felt when I was 10. Insane how its been almost a decade
almost 11 years have passed and i know now that most of the city was rebuilt except for a few buildings that were left and abandoned. Many people moved out due to the trauma and over 1000 people were killed. you're all strong and make sure to take the tsunami warning seriously! be safe.
I was in Misowa japan when this happened in 2011, I was four years old 😭 absolutely terrifying. I knew people who lives where lost in this tragic event
I always used to think that a tsunami looked like a giant wall of water. Easy to spot and unmistakable. I didn't expect them to look like a rapids

Brave man I hope he is ok
It's terrifying in a whole different way. When you hear Tsunami, you expect a massive wave that towers over buildings. In reality, it's subtle. Quiet, yet deadly. It's undetectable until the last possible minute, and by then, for most it's too late.
Nearly 20,000 dead from that. Gives me chills every time I think about it.
The unfortunate part is that it was 9 minutes from the end of the earthquake until the water started rushing in. Even if they had been properly warned from the very second the earthquake ended, there still would have been a struggle to get to high ground. Such a tragedy
Please watch ruclips.net/video/FzX2TRtylUM/видео.html
Not nearly. 20,000+ people people estimated died from this tsunami
It actually is detectable because tsunamis are caused by earthquakes in the ocean. Which is a good thing because if they were truly "tidal waves" like movies depict then we'd never be able to survive them
Just hold your breath
My father is in the military and we were stationed in Okinawa and he was one of the clean up crew. He said it was their job to clean up as much as possible. He said they came across 10+ bodies a day and that he came across a ditch one day while they were cleaning and he had slipped and fell into the ditch and he had saw a mother clinging to her child in a car. He has PTSD from it still to this day. They also had a reactor meltdown so he and his battalion were exposed to a lot of radioactive material.
My grandfather was occupying forces in 1945 and also exposed to a lot of radioactive material when he was sent into Nagasaki shortly after they dropped the bomb there :(

Not Very Iconic one of the man who is talking said that his car was touched and they are saying something like « it’s the end » sorry for bad English
They were even warning someone on the streets riding a bicycle to come up to where they were because the waves are coming. They kept on saying why did this happen its the same as before.
How at 5:59 the guys like, "Ah, my car is done for."
"Done for."

This is more terrifying considering the fact that Japan basically has NO SHITTY DESIGN, in their cars, infrastructure, houses, etc. This country is well known for its structural designs against natural disasters, and when you see this is what the tsunami happens to these strong buildings, god knows what would the same tsunami do to our own cities.....
irony
you dont wanna know.....
佬獅 incorrect. There are many wood structures in Japan, shown by how quickly they were swept away.
Japan trys any bullshit and we’ll shown them how quick cities can really disappear again
A lot of the houses in Japan are only designed to be lived in (and last) for 20-40 years, then torn down and a new one build on the same property.
Very odd to be perpetuated in an area where tsunamis are relatively common and more western style concrete based buildings would likely to be left standing tbh.

What was interesting is that the tsunami was a silent one, meaning it didn’t set off any alarms. The tsunami moved at a rapid pace due to the constant shifting of the tectonic plates, so it would have been too late by the time everyone started to find out about it.

This is the most filmed disaster in human history. I talk to my friends about the massive destructive power of water during a tsunami and recomend watching the hundreds of youtube videos documenting the tragedy in Japan 2011. The way the water just wipes out a building and leaves a gray cloud from the attic's dust popping like a tiny bubble. It's the advance warning system they had in place that saved millions of people...and very little looting at all. This is how a secular society takes care of itself instead of praying and waiting for a magical being to do it for them. Thank you Japan for showing the world how to be king, caring and logical during a major disaster.

@@krizie9113 good for you i guess
its not necessarily water to fear, but earthquakes. They are the main cause of Tsunamis.
One enormous value to videos such as this, and a reason to watch them to the end, is not just to sympathize with the enormous suffering of those involved, but also to see how tsunamis happen. They are not like enormous Hawaiian surfing waves usually. They are like waves that came in, but don’t go out again. This is what makes them so deceptive. This is how my father, my brother, and I got caught in a tsunami. Had we seen an enormous wave, we’d have run. The Japanese are so much more aware of tsunamis than we are in New Zealand.
You now have to watch. the Yolanda tsunami.
The darkness of that water is just chilling
I learned in school that tsunami give warning and that warning is when the sea started to draw back and that how you know there a tsunami coming and best way to avoid one is to get on higher ground like hill, mountain etc. R.I.P everyone who die there, you will be forever miss by the people and your love ones.
Unfortunately that only works in a an open place,in reality tsunamis tend to be very hard to see because they look just like rapids most of the time
And most of all, not everybody, during their daily jobs/deeds looks at the level of the sea. As an example, the cars driving calmly in these video seconds before the water blew out. Its a matter of minutes and really you just have to be lucky and see it coming

@@arifsetiadi4636 are you dumb?
Arif Setiadi it’s the water levels of the sea measured in metres
Meters or feet?
1:30 there is a tentacle that shoots up from the water, followed shortly after by a massive black bird that seems to vanish mid air? There used to be a few videos talking about this with zoomed in footage but they seem to be deleted?
To the guy who filmed this...i hope he's ok.
Seeing as the footage was uploaded theres a decent chance
Camera man always survives
But yeah I really hope everyone was safe
He an his friends got killed in the tsunami... this is his found footage

Wish I knew where this was in Japan and who filmed it
It’s filmed from the Miyako City Hall at Hei River
This changed my perspective of the usual peaceful japan I see in travel vlogs and anime,
R.I.P to the lost souls.
8 years later, this is still terrifying! God bless japanese people... they went through a hard time!
One minute silence for those who died in this tsunami 😢 😢 😢
20,000 people died :(
@@OfficialRoses Correction: 15,000 died. Not 20,000.
@@theamerican3970 IG he's making it too many
11 years later this is still so horrific and scary to watch. I can’t even imagine what these people who witnessed all of this and survived must’ve been thinking. The power of the water once it breached the sea wall is the most haunting part, it was just pure power unleashed by nature in the form of water.
The location of where the Tsunami took place in this part of Japan happened in the Shinkawacho district of Miyako, Iwate Japan. This was filmed from an upper floor of the Miyako City Hall.
thank you, i was trying to find where this was since the original video had a japanese title.
@@SabrinaLovesPuffins No problem. I'm glad to have helped you.
I remember watching this in class with one of those tiny tvs that they provided in the class. Never thought I would reexperience that gut wrenching feeling that I felt when I was 10. Insane how its been almost a decade
"Includes paid promotion"
what is that even mean 😪
almost 11 years have passed and i know now that most of the city was rebuilt except for a few buildings that were left and abandoned. Many people moved out due to the trauma and over 1000 people were killed. you're all strong and make sure to take the tsunami warning seriously! be safe.
The hermit that lives in the mountains in the background is happy with his lifestyle choices right now.
I was in Misowa japan when this happened in 2011, I was four years old 😭 absolutely terrifying. I knew people who lives where lost in this tragic event
At 10:20 when the guy yelled and pointed he was yelling "Look! I can see my Mother-In-Law from here!"
can anyone see a pointy thing at the back of the screen in the water,is it a shark 1:29 thumbs up if you can see it
Omg true
Saw it
•Queenie & Missie• its most likely driftwood
That’s really shallow water so it is most likely a land shark
lol imagine a tsunami dragging an whale ontop of a building and he just sits there like. 👁👄👁
