tsunami videos




With the tsunami so widespread, and unfortunately affecting so many people, there seems to be tons of video footage of it's awesome destruction. And it seems that everyone is searching the web for all of it. Here are a few direct links to save you some time:

flooding into hotel pool and beyond

I really don't have the time to direct link them all so here are some sites that are hosting more videos:
