Historic 2011 Japanese Tsunami Captured Footage

On March 11, 2011, a 9.0 magnitude undersea earthquake off Japan’s northeastern coast unleashed a catastrophic tsunami with waves up to 40 meters, obliterating towns, displacing hundreds of thousands, and triggering the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear crisis with reactor meltdowns and radiation leaks, resulting in over 15,000 deaths, numerous injuries, and widespread economic devastation, prompting Japan to invest heavily in reconstruction, taller sea walls, and enhanced early warning systems to bolster future disaster preparedness.

  1. How do they go about having to bury thousands of people at once? Honestly curious and wonder if someone is able to make a video educating us on that process

  2. This comment section surprised me. This fooages are real not AI. This was captured by the young people captured by their phone. I don't know if they survived this disaster. Some of them were live on the phone. In some of the vidoes you can see people crying when they realise those buildings took by the waves. This disister is the reason we all have a better Tusnami alert system.

  3. This was some of the first footage to come out from this tsunami. I had dear friends stationed near there when this happened and heard how difficult and scary it was during the Fukushima nuclear crisis.

  4. None of this is AI. If you would simply read a book or get up from underneath the rocks from which you live, you would know this was one of the most documented natural disasters in recent history.
