I'm sure there's at least 1 security camera that caught the "big one" coming in. I remember seeing a Discovery Channel show about tidal waves and they had footage from an Hawaiian tidal wave that reached the top of a 10+ story building and wiped it out. Pretty damn scary.

Thats a bunch of crap, no tidal wave 10 stories high hit hawaii since video filming. Im calling shens.
If a 9.0 earthquake only sent a 30-40 foot tidal wave this past week, how big a quake do you think is needed for a 10 story high tidal wave? Get your facts straight.

that would be a "megatsunami" . the last one took place in 1958 in alaska. megatsunamis are the byproduct of landslides displacing water at a very speeds. tsunamis caused by eathquakes do not produce huge multi-story tall waves. megatsunamis are rare and (to my knowledge) none have ever been caught on film.

I wonder if the two people that get washed away at the end of the first video made it....



MSNBC has the entire 2 minute video last night and stated that the husband is alive but his wife has not been found.

Hey a-hole, why don't you think before you run your mouth off. Here's the Hawaiian tsunami which struck on April 1, 1946 at 12:29 GMT.

"This earthquake generated one of the most destructive Pacific-wide tsunamis of the 20th century. Near the generating area, at Unimak Island, huge tsunami waves reached 35.0 m (more than 100 feet) above sea level and destroyed completely the newly built, U.S. Coast Guard's Scotch Cap lighthouse. All 5 men of its crew were killed. The lighthouse was a steel-reinforced concrete structure and its base was at about 30 meters above sea level."

The Canadian History Channel aired the Hilo, Hawaii documentary last Thursday.

You said " they had footage from an Hawaiian tidal wave that reached the top of a 10+ story building and wiped it out"

Hmmm i dont see footage, i didnt say they never ever had a 100 ft tsunami. I said that they didnt have any filming of it. Im sure 10000 years ago they had one that might have been 1000 stories high.

I wonder how many more videos will pop up. Considering the area is densely populated and touristic, even with those were killed you would think there would be more. Are there any video media types these days that can survive be thrashed and soaked in water?

That isn't what you said at all. You said "no 10 story tidal waves since roughly the 1920's" or whenever film became popular. And you're wrong. You lost, stop being a jerk.

Where is the video? I called shens on video of a 100 ft tsunami destroying a building in hawaii. There is no such thing. If im wrong, post a link to the video. Sorry if you are too retarded to understand.

The history of motion pictures began in the late 1880's in Thomas Edison's laboratory. As posted above, a 100 foot tall tsunami struck Hawaii on April 1, 1946, which is oddly enough, after the late 1880's! :Q

You didn't say anything about the actual video. You said there was no 10 story tsunami. Backpedaling now doesn't change what you said.

If you feel the urge to insult me in a PM, at least have the decency to unblock me so I can respond in kind via PM.

you're too retarded to understand what u posted. you did not call shens to the video footage, you called shens to the occurrence. "no tidal wave 10 stories high hit hawaii since video filming" does NOT mean "no tidal wave 10 stories high has been caught on tape..."

To clarify, I think the discovery channel showed animated video footage... not actual footage. Sorta like when they show videos of dinosaurs, y'know?

Anyone have new videos?

I just saw this new video last night and it showed the second tsunami wave coming in, unlike the other videos you see the massive 30 foot wave and then boom smashes into shore.
