I was in Sri Lanka in February and visited the memorial for the victims of the tsunami and saw some of the buildings that had just been left deserted. Being there made me feel sad now watching this has brought back all the sadness I felt when I was there. Our tour guide told us hundreds of people rushed out to catch the fish that had been stranded when the water went out and no one knew why until it was loo late
@@navodyarathnayaka7408 I realise that which made it really sad that it happened. I found the people of Sri Lanka some of the most wonderful people I’ve met in my travels. The whole country has so much beauty which I only saw some of while there. I will definitely be going back as soon as I can so I can see more.
I remember my shreelankan friend tears he lost everything in that deadly wave he lost his kids, wife, parents property it's really bad hapaned with his life, God give them all and all victims havenly rest 😭🙏🙏🙏

Hello again! I'm from a documentary company called BriteSpark Films and we would like permission to license your video to include in our documentary - please let us know how you would like to be credited and if this agreeable? It is in the context of including some of your footage in an upcoming documentary about the Boxing Day Tsunami. Is there a best way to contact you?
Most people world wide knew the word tsunami, they just didn't know what it exactly looked like. I believe movies is what made most people not recognize this as a real threat, as in movies (which most people watch and love) tsunamis are 100 meters high and come in with/in One swipe. These waves looked normal from a distance, and that was expected. You are right that its likely most if not all had no idea of precautions, because had they all acted as if a tsunami was coming, they would have expected a 100 meter wall of water coming. Most either had no idea what a tsunami looked like or were misinformed about it.
Tsunamis are just raises in the sea level for a short time, but people think they are massive tidal waves. The only other large displacement of water that could raise the sea level so quickly are probably storm surges from hurricanes and wind.
Hi - thank you for sharing such historically important footage. I work for a production company and we are making a documentary commemorating the 20th Anniversary of the tragedy. I was wondering if you had any information regarding the sources of the archive footage that you used? Thank you in advance
there were 2 waves, the first revealed parts of the sea floor that were not there before. some people took some fish, some were trying to put them back in the water, and others were simply exploring.
Ich wäre wie diese Menschen, ich hätte mir das vielleicht auch aus der Nähe angeschaut als das Wasser wegging. Hab das vorher auch nicht gewusst was das bedeutet, gebe ich ehrlich zu
Интересно наблюдать, как природа заманивает умственно неполноценных, чтобы хоть немного очистить от них землю... Идут, как зомби навстречу своей погибели. Ещё в 70-х любой советский школьник знал: "ушло" море далеко - беги от него подальше и повыше. Даже животные это знают. Впечатление, что некоторые люди с рождения запрограммированы на самоуничтожение.
When you see that people were seeking shelter on the Benton’s railway platform you realise the severity of the water coming so far inland from the ocean , Sadly so many died because they had no proper warning available 😢😢😢
In school they taught me that you should run away from the shore when the water recedes severely and randomly. And I dont even live near a fucking ocean!

Yes , nobody believed it was real
Unfortunately too few people know that when the water recedes this far back you run for your life

One of the many ways that Hollywood kills.

Yeah looks like about 9:50 is the part where you decide to stop filming and run like hell.
I was very young when this tsunami happened. When I went to my grandfather's house, I saw a tsunami😫. From Bangladesh

And I dont even live near a fucking ocean!
still applies if you decide to have a beach vacation.
When did they teach you this
