this video just shows you can never underestimate a tsunami
remember when i found this video and it only had like 2000 views, never found it again, until now…
Unknown awesome video of the tsunami.
Hi There, Do you own this footage/you took it? I’m a documentary producer working on a segment for our U.S. public television network and am interested in using it in our production. Can you email so we can discuss: kwhalen26@aol.com. Thank you.
What the fuck means with “Boxing day”????
Eric Walters made a book about this its called “Wave”
I know someone who was swimming on Lanta when this wave hit, then was almost killed by the second. Very lucky to have lived.
somwhere there is my brother… :*(
everyone got to safety i saw i think
nooo! my homeland!
i fee bad all the people tht died
Yes, there was a small wave and then a bigger one with a much stronger force behind it.
One slip, trip, or flipflop mishap and you would have been …. My god, so close. That must have had … I don’t know which words…
Am I right that there was a bigger wave coming on the horizon? I kinda saw whitecaps on 0:49
Why were you still on the beach? Did you not see the water coming in? You’re an idiot. Sorry, but it’s undeniable.
SHIT!!!!
how the fuck did that not get you!?
humanity- nature = 0:1
HOLY SHIT!
It was lucky it was early in the morning given it was Boxing Day and that beach would of probably been far crowed than it was when it.
“don’t worry, I got it all on film”
lmao
WTF Why would you go down to the beach and watch it come towards you.
Speed of the white water coming in was like a fighter jet .
Wow! You were there? What a horrible distaster that was.

Wow. Amazing the power in one of those waves. Glad you guys lived to share your story.
