Japanese Tsunami video from inside a car

Re: Japanese Tsunami video from inside a car

Man take the chance of you car staying afloat or getting on a pallet that will be swept out to sea was my thought. All in a cold enviroment, absolutely crazy with no time to really run or do anything.

I wonder if this was a camera that they found amongst the debris, or if someone posted it from their experience?

At any rate ... I think the lady who hopped out to run for safety had the right idea.

No real good options in that situation. Once the water hit its take you chances in the car or take you chances in the debris filled water.
