• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Stunning video of Tsunami in Japan

Terrible showcase of natures force.
I also checked the pictures (500) on that page, which show the human tragedy.
Speechless. My thoughts are with the survivors.

Stunning, shocking, there really aren't words to describe it. I sit here watching the start of the flood and every reasonable sense in the body says "it's a swell and will recede in a moment" but it doesn't and just keeps on coming and coming. Awful.
And in a way what makes it worse is that it has put the New Zealand 'quake on the back pages as if that was no big deal.

Not only does it not stop coming, it grows stronger. The camera man must have feared for his life at that moment. There is just no way I would watch that headed towards me and assume the building I was in would survive.

This is incredible footage. The sirens in the background sent a chill up my spine.
