- Shocking video captures the impact when one of the tallest tsunamis recorded in history hits and devastates the village of Nuugaatsiaq (Greenland) in the late evening hours, causing four deaths. Subscribe for extreme nature videos ► www.youtube.co...
In the evening of June 17th, 2017 (at about 9:40 pm local time), a gigantic landslide (measuring 300 m × 1,100 m = 980 ft × 3,610 ft) occurred on the southern slope of the Umiammakku Nunaat peninsula. Several dozen million cubic meters of rock and slope sediments fell about 1 km (3,300 ft) into the Kangilleq fjord, which triggered a tsunami that moved westward into the Karrat fjord complex. The tsunami wave, which was initially over 90 meters high (about 300 ft.), reached the small village Nuugaatsiaq with a wave height of about ten meters (about 30 ft.). It took the catastrophic tidal wave only seven minutes to cover the 32 kilometers distance to Nuugaatsiaq, which means it reached an average speed of 275 km/h. The tsunami dragged four people out to sea, who have since been considered dead. Furthermore, seven people were slightly injured and two people were seriously injured by the catastrophic natural disaster. Eleven buildings were destroyed. Rescue helicopters brought the approximately 200 local residents to the district capital of Uummannaq.
In 2018, a Swiss company observed the situation and found that the mountain slipped about 1 cm every day and one could expect another landslide at any time. The risk for this was rated at 11.5 out of 12, which is why a resettlement at this time was further excluded. Shortly thereafter it was announced that there was still danger from the mountain slope, making it impossible to end the evacuation. The village of Nuugaatsiaq has since been abandoned.
Was the Greenland tsunami a "mega-tsunami"? The Greenland tsunami may be considered as mega-tsunami (or impact tsunami) due to its incredible initial wave height of nearly 100 m / + 300 ft. By contrast to ordinary tsunamis, which usually reach an hight of about 30-100 ft., a megatsunami is a tsunami with an initial wave amplitude measured in several tens, hundreds, or possibly thousands of metres. Megatsunamis are caused by giant landslides and other impact events (including meteorite impacts in an ocean), while ordinary tsunamis are usually caused by underwater earthquakes or volcanic eruptions (which do not normally generate such large waves). Other recent megatsunamis include the wave associated with the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa (volcanic eruption), the 1958 Lituya Bay megatsunami (landslide into a bay), and the wave resulting from the Vajont Dam landslide (caused by human activity) (en.wikipedia.o....
When comparing this "Greenland Tsunami" with the 1958 "Lituya Bay Mega-tsunami", it seems surprising that the landslide which triggered the Greenland Tsunami was actually even bigger than the landslide which triggered the 1958 Lituya Bay mega-tsunami (45 million m³ which fell about 1 km into the Kangilleq fjord // vs. // 30 million m³ which fell from an elevation of about 900 m into the Lituya Bay). Somehow the Lituya Bay wave ended up being way higher in its max. (+524 m Vs. 100 m). The Greenland Tsunami wave was way faster - it only took 7 minutes to cover the 32 km distance to Nuugaatsiaq (which equals and average speed of about 275 km/h) compared with the speed of the Lituya Bay wave (estimated to only 160-210 hm/h).

FYI, the Greenland mega-tsunami was generated by a landslide that was ~3200 ft wide and ~1000ft tall from the Karrat Fjord and fell 1500ft into the bay. The landslide was thought to be generated by an earthquake, but it was later found that this is not the case as the seismic activity was produces by the landslide. As the landslide impacted the bay, it generates a 300ft wave that traveled down the bay decreasing in height as energy is dissapated (spelling?) from the waves relatively short length. The tsunami left four people missing and several damaged houses were reported at the village of Nuugaatsiaq. This event was similar to the Taan Forjd landslide generated tsunami of 2015 which caused a 950ft wave.
I tired myself out so that's all I feel like typing on my dinky phone.
Thanks for adding this info.
I visit this town cool people
You did well on your dinky phone 👍. I was so relieved to see the person make it to safe ground. Nature still retains the ability to bite one in the butt. Us humans can spoil a lot but in effect control very little. Very interesting video, thanks 👍

Wow as if their lives where not hard enough.
I'm Soo glad that dog made it it. He was tied up to the side of the house when everyone inside evacuated after the warning from the daughter. 🙏💛
Where can I find that he made it?
@@LOLGAMERWr in the comments. There was a few dogs and a few videos of this event from others in this small village.

@@kastbolder6510 there were a few dogs in this little villiage and a few other videos from others in the village that stood back recording the whole event and everyone and all the dogs were okay.
The dog we hear in the video was more then one dog and they were alerting everyone. Only one I seen in the water but he made it out.
I would check out the place this happened to and see the videos from many angles. I'm sorry but I don't know location name and date of event off the top of my head.
Anyone who ties up a dog shouldn't own a dog most trashy people do that. If you train a dog no need to tie up a dog.
The basics of tsunami evacuation: Get high, get inland, and remember you could always go higher/further. The wave won't necessarily stop where you think!
So THAT's why the Dutch always gets so high? Because getting inland isn't going to make any difference...
Thanks Doc
Chilean here. I approve this message.
(Also, there's never a single wave, the train of waves always seem lower and slower than they really are, making people incorrectly assume they can film closely and safely walk away. The second wave is much quicker and far-reaching than the first)
@@Tjalve70 Well technically it makes a huge difference for surviving a tsunami.
A tsunami can travel easy up to 3 miles inland.
The Dutch has the North Sea but despite the sagnificant percentage below sea level, the Dutch are not in tsunami territory, it's an entire different matter, the only way would be if an massive asteroid was to fall in The North Sea.
Okay. Im very high. Now heading inland to my bedroom. Where I will get higher 🙏🖖
Four people died that day and a lot of dogs died my cat (in the profil) were in that yellow house and almost die too and my brother was the one who filmed it
How about the person caught on camera running,how is he?
There are two yellow houses which of them if yours.
That's terrible. I hope things are getting better now
That is very sad
nightstalker enigma he is fine he didnt die he was drunk
This didnt seem to be reported on main stream media, RIP to those who lost their lives
because mainstream media dont report the news.....their aim (much like how social media influencers collect 'likes') is to generate viewers...the bigger and more polarizing the issue the more its reported....and its the same from both sides of the political spectrum sadly. Ratings wins, antagonistinc headlines sells papers, generates 'clicks' and online media traffic. 🤷♂️
I mean, this was 4 years ago
@@FlightSimMega bro i am not even talking to you
The main stream media only reports propaganda
Mainstream media, mainstream media....B b b blah blah blah.
Y'all mean mainstrean news agencies. Media = the whole shebang. TV of all and any kind, films, books, magazines, music, the internet...
And who created nainstream news? Who has consumed it? Who still consumes it? Who, in that way, helped create it?
The audiences watching, reading and listening to it. Those consuming it.
You think YT isn't mainstream? Of course it is now!
It was once seen as altetnative media, 20 years ago when I started working in the internet sector.
It's like a bunch of sheep, bleating out the same terms, which aren't even the correct terms and are obviously not fully understood. See it online, like it, parrot it back in other comment sections.
And I dare say it was covered by 'mainstream' news agencies in that country.
Number of times I've seen 'Mainstream media didn't even cover it', then done a search and found plenty of coverage. It's a lie. See comment below with links.
Seen people say the same thing ON MAINSTREAM NEWS YT CHANNELS! 🤣
Literally see the usual pseudointellectual claims that NO 'mainstream media' covered stories in comments under a story in a mainstream News agencies' YT channel. Makes no sense. It's a lie.
Or stupidity.
If you wanna moan at someone, look in the mirror - if you've watched, listen to, read or shared any news items from 'mainstream media' (SMH), then YOU helped sustain and create the ideological octopus you're now moaning about!
And you think your alternative news sources have fewer biases than the bigger ones?
You think they don't become mainsteeam once their subs and views reach a certain level?
Pfffft.
Seriously. Takes seconds to tear holes in your BS if you're ACTUALLY educated on it.
Not even ysing the correct terminology but grasps the complexity of interplay between media development, sociology, history and psychology...
And before anyone says anything, I spent 5 years training to become a news journalist (7 years in TV production) and that made me NOT go into news journalism. So I have a decent grasp of the issues.
Read up about the first Gulf War, French journalists and public protesters supporting them after a 24 hour news blackout.
Then go look in the mirror and you'll see a co-creater of this you now spout about.
Don't like news? Don't consume it.
You obviously consume it, else how would you know what's wrong with it?
If you don't consume it, how would you know what it covers or doesn't cover and what's wrong with it?
Either way, consuming it supports it. Which makes you part of the problem.
I don't read replies, so don't waste your time responding.
I know so of you will still reply, cos you'll be triggered and wanna have a go, because how could you possibly be part of the issue and creation?
This is one very very very rare video and it should have millions of views. There are only 3 or 4 real landslide tsunami videos ever.

What about those animals you saw?
@Cassie4486 OF COURSE those too. They aren't mutually exclusive.

Try rescuing your screaming dogs it's awful
@@anni50ful who gives a shit about dog, family first, dog can save themselves
Since this is something that is happening on a regular basis, why are you building houses on the shore ?!
Do you also chain your dogs and do nothing to help them?
@@Andy-gl4yy they barely saved themselves- and not for good reason. They nonchalantly stood around and did almost nothing until the last second in many instances. I’ve seen several videos. So many of these villagers did that. Had this been a different time they would have been stuck on their little plot of land with nothing. Instead I’m guessing they were compensated.
I can't listen to those poor dogs crying.
I too...
Sounds more like seagulls than dogs.
@@skipindarskipindar8308 Unfortunately no, that's definitely dogs :( They're chained to the sides of the houses and were left there when the wave hit

This just breaks me - watching - I cant imagine being there in person! The ocean is a devastating force that is so powerful, deadly yet beautiful and life sustaining. Thoughts and prayers to everyone! Pray you are safe and able to heal if you lost someone, including your pets.
Poor dogs that were left screaming for help and just left behind chained with no way to fight for themselves.
they didn't appear to be chained, just scared and confused
@@jamesomara3361 they were chained look closely
@@wildwildItaly another video clearly shows them chained, heartless savages.
Poor dogs 😭💔🐶
It’s heartbreaking to hear that pup cry. Looks like Karma bite their asses. There was no reason why the pups had to drown. They are smarter than man; would’ve run to higher ground
It’s one thing watching this on a video with a title that explains what you’re about to see, but another thing entirely to have been there! I assume these people had warning whatsoever! It must have been absolutely terrifying and confusing.
I'm really glad that the person who was filming took time to film this instead of helping or warning others.
Frankly I would just be so pissed off watching my whole house float away...
Edit: Those poor doggies 😭
Cant believe people find this funny!!! 4 people probably died let alone the animals and many lost their homes...
A lot of missing people, gone.
But relieve you weren't in it.

I'm not sorry for the people, I'm sorry for the animals that were leashed.
@@GerhardSchroeder Oh yeah because animals' lives are more valuable than humans'. Better lose your parents, grandparents, siblings and neighbours than YOUR pets. How loving and kind. NOT.
@@floridapike4530 They had plenty of time. There are other videos where people used the time to walk hundreds of meters away from the coast to a higher-up graveyard. So instead of walking away from the coast with the animals that are dependent on them, these fools stand near the water and film how their animals drown.
@@GerhardSchroeder me too
I was so scared for the doggos!! So relieved to see some of them re-appear after the wave!!

My thoughts exactly !!! That was definitely the most stressful part of that video! Good to see several dogs running around after that wave.
@@imissmypeep2209 yes
@@imissmypeep2209 but the other videos are still infuriating
It appears that man who was running for his life (arguably very slowly) was calling for the dogs that are at the left of the frame. It looks like only two of the three dogs make it 😭
You can see the 3rd dog escaping to the left around 1:29, i think all 3 dogs maded alive
@@StoneCoolds I think I saw another video closer to the house where you could see two dogs, one closer to the water and another dog behind the house chained to it's dog house. The one nearer the water was probably drowned as the waves engulfed it and the other chained dog was crying desperately as the water hit the dog house and started to drag it around, I didn't see any attempts by the people still standing around to free it. There was a video from a camera inside one of those houses and you can hear the dogs crying scared out of it's mind, unable to get away. Tragic. Sometimes it's just too dangerous to make a rescue like that as every wave just got bigger.
@@sanseiryu yeah, but they had opportunities. They made no effort.
@@user-pe2yx9kt4e no they didn't watch the footage, there was at most gaps of 30 seconds between the waves, they cannot run 500 metres down the bank, untie the dogs and run back to safety before the next wave comes which moves far faster than a man can run. This was an awful situation but the villagers are not to blame. Human life > Animal life as sad as the situation is, they would've been devastated to lose their dogs but not as much as a son or father.
@@_s_9920 yes they did the camerawoman (for camera 2, a different video) stood right in front of the one dog while the water was down and did nothing (barely saved herself because she waited to run away at the last second like an idiot), and the man behind her was walking nonchalantly towards the hill pretty much ignoring another dog that he could have gotten to and released in 2 seconds while getting towards safety
OMG! I was not expecting to see how quickly the water rushed in... I’m glad you, your family and your kitty cat are okay.

To the "HATERS" complaining about the video being a bit shaky / not steady: Seriously??
It's basically in the middle of the night and this kid has just been running for his life! (You can hear him breathing??) He has to see his house and life being swept away in 2 minutes. Four of his neighbors - perhaps even friends or relatives - are dying in these moments. Would you have done a better job in this terrible situation? Yes, I am sure. Might you sound like a spoiled stupid brat if you are seriously complaining about a video filmed by a kid in this terrible situation is a bit shaky? No, not at all. Why not just appreciate that a kid decided to capture this terrible moment at all to allow us watch potentially one of the very few videos of a REAL mega-tsunami? I have actually never seen any better version of this tsunami or any other (real) video of a Mega-Tsunami at all.

To quote a dock supervisor from GhostBusters, "Well, better late than never."
It's sad to see what happened to all those people homes.
Not after you learn about what they did to their dogs. Watch the video from camera 2. The camerawoman and another man stood there/nonchalantly walked away instead of helping unchain two dogs while the water level was down and they had time to do so. Then they ran away at the last second like idiots. As much as I wish they didn’t receive any compensation for their lost homes, they probably did.
No fucking excuse
Its very sad....but I will never understand how people can just run and leave the animals to fend for themselves....heartbreaking.
No time to react, only just running in higher ground.
Because if you stop you die. That's how a tsunami works. That's not a small amount of water. It may only be knee deep but you'll never stand up in it. Look at what it does to a HOUSE. What do you think it would do to a human
Wow, it’s terrifying as well as heart breaking
That guy who’s running looks like he hasn’t had a run in a decade.
Or was swimming for his life right before he escaped! Check out some other videos, especially from inside one of the houses.. crazy cold water
Or he has a lung or muscle issue and is disabled and can only run that fast.
After initial adrenaline wears of it can have quite a numbing effect/shock starts to make you "run in cement"
Maybe he just woke up or it’s really cold or he’s worried for his dogs. However he does look like he’s not running in full potential in purpose. Maybe he’s partially traumatized seeing his house or dogs being swept away.
He can't even say he ran for his life
I wouldn't be leaving without my dogs
They were chained up and no one thought to unchain em to give em a fighting chance....that's wrong on many levels....Smmfh

why it had no chance of saving itself? is probably close to whoever makes the video.
@@escala94 dog was on a chain, couldn't run away even though it tried

The humans should have been chained up and left to drown not the dogs
Well the water immediately goes back out to sea if the dogs are chained up they would probably be fine because they’re secured to the chain.
Hey thanks for leaving your dogs behind just to sit on a hill to record the waves washing them away as they cry for help.

Those poor dogs chained up when the wave hit. So sad
Yeah I hate when people chain up a dog in places like that. Even if it's not a wave or other natural disasters, animals can attack and they're trapped so they can't even use their natural defenses.

Mother Nature's way of telling people not to build at the shoreline. Water comes and shoves everything inland. Only people that should have been caught in that is ones who go down to the shore to fish.
I am very sorry for all the lives and property lost, may they all learn from their mistakes.
Everybody who lives near the ocean should have to take a course in Tsunami 101, the next wave will be higher.

@@Erich-Lab
I don't think it was a joke . Sadly most people only think things are termed "mega" like this because of the amount of damage and loss of life and not by the event itself , its not a tornado and those are rated by amount of loss and damage . But you are correct this small village can understand what Japan and Indonesia went through . And I figured this out by thinking with logic and going with what made sense . I did not use science because science is not one of my buddies there is to much math involved plus I was kicked out of science class in the 8th grade don't ask I will just say there are some stuff that should never ever be mixed with each other , who knew . Thank you for letting me know I was right . Have a great day .
Everyone loves the Kings Tide..until it’s hits your village and you find out that aquaman isn’t real. 💁
Dude spin the camera faster please i could actually see a little bit.

Interesting information. I know of the Lituya Bay event in Alaska. It's unfortunate that people perished, and interesting that this was not mentioned in an media outlets that I saw.
todezwis two guys sitting in a fishing boat in that Bay are the only two humans to see an actual glacier lift out of the water for a split second.... The wave was that powerful
Western media doesn't care about indigenous people
Damn, moving that camera around like you did made me sick.
Omg! How sad they leave their dogs tied up to die. So sad.
I don't think they planned on their afternoon going that way!, thus the dogs were where they are normally no fences or yards .
Ugh.....that was awful.It looks like the End of the Earth there..dark..sparse..cold.the sea taking over the land--
.so beautiful in reality I'm sure- seeing no roads, stores, ppl..it just seems surreal even without natures fury. So very sorry for your loss♡♡
Were they tied up? I don’t see it. I see them running around.
This is why I never believed in beach front property. I have no problem if I am on a hill 200 feet up from coastline. Not being level with the waterline. That's just insane.
Oh ffs! When will people with cameras learn to keep them still and not be constantly panning all over the place?!
Glad that man made it out safe and sound. Why did he wait so long, though?

So they are thinking, it would be safe. And that's not only a few, these are millions of people all over the world... I am still believing, the people who build their houses next to the water never saw a Tsunami like this. They are probably fishermen, which don't want to carry what they've got from the sea hundreds of Meters every time. That's not really stupid! And it's not really fair, to call them stupid!

They didn't. 4 dogs lost their lives. They were chained and even if they weren't.. The water is filled with icebergs or ice cubes.. Not many would survive in these conditions. And being it in the middle of the night, late evening ppl were asleep and it just appeared with no warning. But I agree with your coffee cup in imaginative movies, not these documentaries. It's real lives. Not paid actors. Big difference.
my condoleances and thoughts for those who were affected. such a tsunami would wipe out the entire country i live in(the Netherlands) scary to think of. was actually looking for videos of the Alta landslide in Norway when i came across this 1st i hear/see about it, unfortunately like usual the media here rather reports about a cat stuck in a tree or the latest tweet from a politician instead of showing what really happens
Tobias_E258 yes this is true, and the Dutch are the absolute best at living in harmony with the sea, thankfully you do not have the same threats as Japan and your former colony Indonesia
Что-то не понял. А что в таких домиках живут в Гренландии? Это же дачные летние скворечники какие-то, причем для теплого климата.
Это остров, где нет нихрена, кроме снега и камней. Там очень дорого строить нормальные дома.
@@gklkjuhylpoiuyuiojhjklkjuh9976 камень же есть? А как в таком скворечнике жить, особенно зимой?
I feel that the descriptions of these is somehow misleading...
"it generates a 300ft wave" nothing I saw there looked higher than 10-15 ft high...
What am I missing? 300 ft relative to what?
La gente es una mierda ....y esta bien le que le pasa....pero Los niños y los animales no tienen la culpa de su miseria como seres humanos ....pero lo que es aun más lo que me molesta que los animales estén atados y le paso por arriba el agua aun estando atado....Me dolió muchísimo....pero aun los animales nos demuestran que son fuerte ....fuerza firus..
Never build your house near the waterline... this will become more and more important in future.
I feel with all the people who lost their relatives, their home, their health, their animals, ....😢💔
I was just telling mum mum this yesterday when i was telling her about coastal land ive been looking at in Morocco recently, Natural disasters are increasing. i wonder what a safe height and distance is
@@MoroccanAnwar that is a very hard to answer question i would guess and i am not an expert in that field anyways. It obviously depends on the event, then how much hight you can be on and what the ground surrounding you is made of. If you are 2 kilometers inwwards but everything is flat, it may not be enough. Also if you are on a hundred meter height landscape which is made up of mostly out of loose sand, it still may not be enough.
Rocky underground, a couple of kilometers land inwards and having at least hundred meters height i would guess may manage the lesser tzunamis.
@@kinngrimm 100% need to speak to experts on this one, and even experts get it wrong sometimes did u see the walls they built in japan to protect from tsunamis they were 1 metre too short!! its like god is telling us dont try be too smart be good and be humble lol
@@MoroccanAnwar Someone who may help you with that is your insurance company though, they usually have maps with likelyhoods of natural accuring catastrophies/desasters and their likelyhood. They also have people trying to estimate the safty of buildingmaterials and other things. If i were you, that would be the first people i would check with. Your government too should have these maps, but i am not sure how easily one can get into conntact there. Here in germany we have i guess one could say a branch of the military called "desaster response", maybe that is something your country has too and also may have the information you are seeking.
@@kinngrimm That's excellent advise thank you
The wave heights all depends on what you're calling a wave. Neither this wave nor the Lituya Bay had WAVE FACES as high as what's described. Not even close. The incredible heights refer to the WAVE RUNUP on the immediate opposing land elevations to the landslides. The heights of the initial wave faces of both events that travelled down the bays, although certainly very high, were nowhere near the runup heights, and the runup height of this wave was not 300ft, it was 193meters (633ft), but a 300ft travelling wave could not have been generated. I don't know where the 300ft number came from. It is possible that the splash of the landslide and water displacement created an initial 300ft incline that sent a wave somewhere close to that toward the opposing slope. That initial wave would have expanded in concentric circles as it moved out from the landslide contact with the water, and where it hit the same slope as the landslide there could have been a runup on that side of the bay as high as 300ft. The direction of that initial wave and the shape of the opposing slope would have shaped the initial travelling wave. If the runup was at an angle to the direction of the initial wave, like it was at Lituya Bay, then as the runup slid down across the angle, you'd have to determine at what point the descending runup water becomes or joins the travelling wave and becomes part of a face that then became the wave that travelled down the bays, but the travelling waves were nowhere near the runup heights at their beginnings.

Maybe this is what made Vikings extinct in Greenland 500 years ago when they disappeared.
Well they didn't go extinct, because I am right here writing this from Vikingland :)! They just live in Norway, Iceland and Denmark today... And maybe also in USA and Canadia.
@@niskaa78 I hust meant the few that migrated to Greenland from Scandinavia .
I almost got sea sick trying to focus on anything.
It is a video made by a woman running away as a tsunami devastates her village.
@Oops Oops Alright chief, please educate National Geographic on this then because they say it's a Tsunami too www.nationalgeographic.com/news/2017/06/video-shows-greenland-deadly-tsunami-landslide-spd/
@Oops Oops Capslock is almost always a good indicator to find out if someone has no idea what he is talking about.
@Oops Oops - the word tsunami means harbour wave, are you idiotically suggesting this was not a wave in a harbour, and therefore not a tsunami ?
Same 😅
OH DEAR ,, this is so sad ,, the Humans and Animals
Ironic, the dead reside on the high ground
It seems that they are the only ones with any brains in that place...
the gentleman takes it easy, even though the water is coming on 1:49
Elias Axelson very impressive, very impressive getting this on video as well
I don't understand why would people build their homes right on the coast or whatever.
Why not make their homes at a safer distance. Not too far but atleast a safe distance so that they can be safe from such disasters.
it's normally covered in ice, and it's where the food comes from.
@@marinaorgan589 I see but can't they walk a few yards for the food? They don't need to build their houses right on the shores.
ギリギリまで来てるのにメッチャゆっくり走るやん
You NEVER split on public video man c'mon
Hope you guys have recovered from this disaster.Happy Easter mate
I saw some DOGS 🐕 run for help, poor dogs hopefully they’re all ok.
Watch again, most of the dogs are chained up !!!
They left the dogs tied up at the house you can hear and see them.
Just read the description- that landslide must have been HUGE!!!
Surprisingly not, it was on just the side of a car, but it came from outer space
The high pitched noise heard are the dogs crying for help. The good news is the dogs tied up most likely survived, as the water receded very quickly and rapidly.
My heart sank when I saw those dogs about to be swamped but they looked ok at the end!
Dogs are dumb
@@johncholmes643 Well, smarter than 50% of Americans
@@johncholmes643 so are some humans... Take you for example.
Who cares about a daft domestic animal when people are losing their homes and loved ones? The dog can be replaced the following day with another one that looks and stinks the same! People can't replace their loved ones.
@@marcsalmon626 I am assuming you have never owned a pet before, cause pets can be loved just as much as friends and family.
“Well I guess my house is closer to town now”
If I was the dude by the house I’d be running faster than that.
Courage, message solidaire, 🙈😲 cela ne peut pas rester comme ça
Me the entire time.
(Watches dude running for his life) "Oh no help the doggie!!!"
I think some people are in the house and I didn't hear any sirens, many people busy to knock on the doors and evacuate actual people, first priority people. I don't think these are "doggies" because they can attack any people whom aren't their alpha.
@@someguyfromarcticfreezer6854 I beg your pardon? They only attack if they are provoked heavily. I saw a labrador there, I also saw some get washed away, HOPEFULLY, recovered.
@@Hayden_2713 Clearly you don't know Inuit dogs, they are work animals not pets, they can attack even they didn't provoked. They are working beasts, pack animals.
@@someguyfromarcticfreezer6854 to many clueless Americans here.
@@_s_9920 Me or other guy?
1:12 is that the pet dog?
Yes
Banyak yang tidak tahu kalau ada tsunami.. Kasihan mereka lari ketakutan.
Semoga Tuhan melindungi kita semua 🤲
RIP to those who died, so tragic!
I believe something like this happened in Alaska in the 1960s.
Robert Cornelius yeah he explains that in the video description..... The one your referring to was the tallest proven wave in recorded history
You're probably thinking of Lituya Bay 1958. But there was also Grewingk Lake in 1967 and Taan Fjord in 2015. All mega tsunamis caused by landslides similar to this
Imma gonna build my house weather in the water!
sorry for the loss of homes in your village i hope there was no human casualties. i hope you can pull together quickly.
It's sad to report that, this village disappeared. Being washed up.
So heart breaking to see this. Time to move higher ground now. Lesson learn.mother nature is taking over. Hope those people inside managed to got out as I see house is floating away.
Run for your life!
wow .. this is so surreal. Unbelievable as if I was standing there. I pray that no one was hurt or killed.
Where were the dogs? What was that whistling about? I put my speed to slowest rate and i still never saw any dogs? And i still got dizzvy?
