Guys, a 7.9, but revised to up to 8.8 Earthquake has hit Japan. Just saw a Tsunami take down a whole port, then a whole city. If your over there, get to higher ground guys. There is Tsunami warnings for Japan, Maldives, Phillipines and Russia.

There is more waves breaking and coming in behind the one that took out the whole town area near the ocean.

things are getting out of control aye - seriously starting to think about a shift to a safer location - we right on pacific "ring of fire" fault line and coastal town - of which has a very similar topography as the recently hit Christchurch much of which is built on reclaimed land also
reports of buildings down in japan now as well....

Just been watching some of the news, and can't believe what the poor people are going through.
Have never been in an earthquake or a tsunami, and hope I never do. Ed ![]()

I'll just apologise for the "Joke" that i posted...
should've used the "Think before you post" rule.. This one time, and i didn't.. umm.. all of this damage right across the globe is horrific, we had Queensland, Australia first, then Victoria, Australia then Christchurch, New Zealand, and now Japan/Tokyo.. and they expect tsunamsi to hit half the world.. Lets just hope that everyone comes out of these alive... Its just sad after 1, let alone nearly 4 incidents in 4 months

Was watching a bit on this before, apparently...
The earthquake that hit Japan was the 6th biggest earthquake ever recorded (worldwide) and the biggest one to ever hit Japan. Earthquake was 1,000 times stronger than the one that hit Christchurch recently. They expect the Tsunami to hit Hawaii in approx 4hours. Amazing and tragic stuff if true. |

Strange how after the earthquake in Japan, Hawaii has recorded 14 Quakes ranging from 2 to 3.5 on the richter. I believe a chain reaction of events is unfolding before our eyes.
