LOL... Either that dude is stupid or has ballz of steel. To sit there and still record is crazy, you dont know how big those things will be or how much of the shore it will cover. I'll assume he could tell it wasn't going to be that bad.
I agree, you can tell he was American...lol, you know how we do. All the locals know whats up and we gotta find out the hard way. As soon as I saw the first local person panic, I would have went into alert mode.
This is NOT from the other day this was from the 2004 quake. I prolly have the most extensive video collection the is on that 04 tsunami and this is in that collection.
Its wack for the guy who posted this on youtube to say this is new footage.
