Tsunami video that I could not stop watching

Something new pops up on Japan's 2011 Tsunami from time to time. I aways watch. There is something about the power of a Tsunami that holds my attention like nothing else. It's as if I'm watching the end of the world. The last minutes is the best. The footage shows a nighttime skyline right out of hell. It is the stuff of nightmares.

I share your horrified fascination with the tsunami footage. What's so remarkable about it is the amount of forewarning the residents had. Just enough to get out their cameras and shoot "before & after" footage. But I always wonder what those folks up on the rooftops were thinking. Was it "Glad we got to a safe spot" or "Hmm. How're we going to get back down now that the streets and cars are all gone, and what if the building collapses?" I really admire the courage of the older people in particular.
