Let this video be a lesson people on how to properly film a tsunami safely! He's up high, he's safe, and he's still getting an amazing video! Not running down to the waters edge for a picture of the incoming tsunami waiting till the last second to run for it, which seems to be a common reoccurrence in these tsunami videos.

@@noneofyourbeeswax01 The Japanese at the time probably had the best warning system and most experience with tsunamis of anyone in the world, but even those that knew of the full potential of a tsunami did not believe, or imagine they would face the worse case scenario. I think the fact that they were so familiar with tsunamis led to the terrible death toll. The saying "familiarity breeds contempt" comes to mind.

@@supercal333 Starting a sustenance with a direct contradictory "no" is rude. Especially so when you are assuming an entire peoples mindset: as well as correcting a well known phrase with one invented. And needless to say, an invented phrase could not have come to mine, nor would I have the temerity to quote myself. Having been involved with sailing since my teens I can assure you "men who go down to the sea in ships" often have an adversarial relationship with the ocean. These are largely fishing villages, and they all know how high tsunami's can get. There are physical signs telling them. (BTW the tsunami stopped just below these signs in the worst hit towns.) Was there complacency? Yes. Was there contempt? Certainly. Are they mutually exclusive? Absolutely not. And had you pointed out that it was more likely complacency I would have agreed, but your correction is specifically wrong, and I was fully aware of the ambiguity, and assumed any reader would not have an issue with understanding it was not an empirical statement.

@@Psychol-Snooper I did not think the saying you originally quoted followed on from your comments beforehand. It was not mentioned or alluded to that " 'men who go down to the sea in ships' often have an adversarial relationship with the ocean". I don't believe this to be common knowledge either. I think therefore that on balance your comment was quite abstruse. I believe the saying I quoted followed on more coherently from your original comments, in particular...

These walls are about 10 meters. This wave had to have been between 20-40meters easy. That is terrifying. But even though the tsunami went over the wall, the walls definitely had a big impact of holding some of the ocean back. My heart goes out to everyone who lost their lives and my biggest respect and condolences to anyone who lost someone. 😢

This is Asahi, which means the highest the tsunami got was about 6m. This wave was one of the smallest main waves, so this was probably around 2-3 meters. The 1st wave was higher, reaching 5m and flooding the port area we see here, aswell as destroying houses. 22 people here died.

The walls slow the wave momentarily and in some cases allows those who walk make a getaway just in time.You can see this in several different videos.Thays also help with the stormy north Pacific storms and the occasional Typhoon.They dont stop the waves but break them up and give the small boats calmer waters.

Actually this video was taken in Choshi, Chiba prefecture. Chiba prefecture is located in the south and it's a bit far from the epicenter in Miyagi prefecture and the tsunami already loosing the power so that's why the water did not overcome the wall. But yeah the seawall reduce the impact of the wave.
