I had never seen this video clip of the tsunami. People are yelling and crying "I can't believe it!" "No!" "This can't be!" The mist in the distance, as if the sea is on fire, is all that is evident at first of the impending wave of death. You can see the speed and the power with which it rips through town. People run for high ground. Some don't make it. At the very end at the left, a man in a blue jacket rushes down to help but is swept up in the wave probably never to be seen again. Warning: this video may be too graphic for many people. (It doesn't seem to work on iPads and some computers.)
