When Tsunami attacking Kaishama City | People video Recorded in Close up @memoryofdisaster6551

Memory Of Disaster A capture of the tsunami attacking Kamaishi city, Iwate prefecture. Mr. Takahiro Yamaguchi, a resident of Kamaishi city recorded the video. At around 3:25p.m. approximately 40 minutes since the earthquake, the street in front of the second Kamaishi city hall building (3-chome Tadakoe-cho, Kamaishi city) is in an uproar hearing about the arrival of the tsunami. Mr. Yamaguchi joins those people rushing to take refuge, running up to the city office's higher elevated grounds and facing the camera southward, in the distance. About 150 meters away, near prefectural road No.4, mist and sea spray are rising into the air. Rubble and cars that have been pushed inward by fierce currents are filling up the road in an instant. Currents from the bay (Left on screen, to the east) have somehow already reached the intersections near the city office building, increasing its force in mere moments and flowing inland (Right on screen, to the west). Eventually, a torrent rushes to the front of the city office building, and people shout "Run!" amongst each other. Mr. Yamaguchi runs up even higher, near the entrance of the first city hall building (under construction at the time) and terminates recording on his video camera.
