Houses, completely gone. damn that sucks

I doubt they can even begin to estimate.

I doubt you will see anything remotely close. Totally different infrastructure and awareness between these 2 countries.

These images are unreal.

Mother Nature's a bitch

Does it really matter when you have waves coming in that big?

Report of a 10 meter tsunami hit the Sendai airport.

It looked like the map they showed had the bulk of it hitting near Sendai? I don't know much about Japanese geography, but it says it's a city of approx 1 million.

Yeah, but there are more factors at play than just the size of the earthquake. Even a huge quake will not always cause a Tsunami like the one in Indonesia, and Japan has a much better warning system.

They had less than a 30 minute warning from earthquake to enormous wave of death.

I think a lot of it would depend on the population concentration and the ability to get food, water and medicine into the area.

Food, water, and medicine?

The undercurrent created by these waves would suck your ass all the way to the Philippines.

Look at that wow it looks like Katrina is the closest thing I could compare it to. Just amazing.

MSNBC says they had a 30 second warning before the earthquake? How is that possible???
