If you're anything like me, you more than likely heard all about the Tsunami all over the radio, news, school, conversations, etc. but still had a rather hard time comprehending how bad it really was. For me it's just that I couldn't visualize a wave that size... well, what I should really say is that I thought about a wave that size, saw it hitting the shore and then just going away, I didn't "see" the wave rushing through the city, dragging people through ripping up everything. I just saw the hit. Now... *shudder* see for yourself:
Two British guys watch as the wave crashes into their hotel, bringing all the hotel workers in it. Note the horrible screaming when the windows on the resturant crack and the vacuum that sucks in the water.
Someone very high up watching as the wave goes through the city. Note all the bodies in the water when he looks back (I was still uploading this file when I posted this entry, so if it doesn't work try again in a while).
