News Tsunami

[cHodAX]

Watching the live BBC footage of cars running away from the waves, failing and being lost. No words.

 

[cHodAX]

Looks like some nuclear power stations have been hit as well.

yeah two reactors emergency systems down and a fire in a natural gas storage plant, not good :/

Yet, the last big earthquake in Japan took the lives of 3000 iirc.

No casualties as of yet right?

Proves how developed are the japs in this field

It even managed to produce a whirlpool.

Incredible stuff, specially with the boat circling it. Just hope it was empty at the time!

26 dead so far but estimated 10,000's of potentially from the waves.

 

[Calaen]

32 confirmed dead now but we know it's going to rise well above that.

Felt sick when I saw the footage this morning, it's a crazy place this planet we live on.

They seem to be coming pretty frequently these earthquakes.

aye just glad we didnt build on techtonic plates like that or we'd be fucked.

Hardly matters, if the Gran Canaria shelf ever goes, the south of England could be just as exposed to a tsunami as the PacRim countries who are going to get hit today, and potentially a much bigger tsunami at that.

well I meant for quakes in the UK in general not the flooding part. just been reading the waves that hit japan were around 10meters high the coasts of those mentioned are going to be fucking devestated, poor bastards I hope they're getting away from the coast as fast as possible.

 

[Chosen]

This isnt good..... Seeing my dream country go like that! It looks devestating... I feel with the people living down there now

If the Gran Canaria shelf ever goes, i guess we mihgt as well say goodbay to half of western europe...

Luckily Manchester is a long way away from any coast that would be threatened by that tsunami if it should ever happen.

The tsunami would do £50m worth of improvements to manchester hurr hurr

 

[CorNokZ]

GF's best friend is ~300km from the epi-centre so she is going crazy atm, since no one has heard from her yet..

 

[Zenith.UK]

I had that pit of the stomach feeling when I watched that helicopter footage. Boats being washed inland, debris on fire, articulated lorries caught up like driftwood. Seeing it wash over a levee, over the river, over the other levee and just carry on makes you realise this is major.
It's one thing to watch fx in films like 2012, it's another thing entirely when you know it's live footage.

It isn't uncommon considering the recent locations.

I'm always amazed by these events, just stunning to watch.

Hehe adnd Madrid is 650mts above the level of the sea, well protected by mountains, think i would be safetly enjoying the new "Madrid Beach"

Bro threw an idea that it might have to do with the sun popping X-class flares. No idea myself, might as well be.

If that's the case, 2013 is gonna be a blast.

some pictures there, truely devestating.

Cooling failed at one nuclear plant.

 

[leviathane]

the world is gonna go boom soon.

And it would be a massive upgrade for that shithole Goodison Park.

 

[old.Tohtori]

More a case of better knowledge via reporting and widespread population getting in the hotspots.

In a planetary scale, this is a light fart after a prunesalad.

In any case, all tech aside, Tokio getting hit is rather movie like, surreal.

 

[BloodOmen]

its just hit Hawaii at 3:15pm, water has gone back out 100 yards aswell so specialists reckon theres an even bigger wave coming.

 

[Aada]

Honestly? i thank god i live in boring old Britian we moan about a bit of rain and some snow but we never ever face nature's destructive force like this.

Yep saw one poor bastard driving away from the surge just get washed away.

***** in Hawaii man they put the fuel prices up because they knew people would go panic buying, fucking rotten trick to pray on people at such a time.
