Scary Japan Video: Street-Level View of Tsunami

I tweeted a link to this video yesterday when I saw a link while checking Twitter on my phone. It’s so scary and powerful that I wanted to post it here too. The clip is extraordinary because it’s long and well shot, so you get a true sense of the strength that was behind that water as it kept rising and rising.

It was shot in Kesennuma City in Miyagi Prefecture. The Telegraph also posted a portion of the video.
