3-11-2011 the tsunami caused by the earthquake in Japan arrives on Ma'alaea Bay on Maui. First the water recedes, remains that way for maybe 5 minutes, then moves back in, resembling a rapid tidal change.
@@christywilsonberge4638 the power of nature is fascinating to behold, watching videos that display it has nothing to do with cruelty. Your comment is careless and ignorant.
The fact this phenomenon (even if small in scale) was generated by a volcano 5-5,000 miles away, still makes it watchable and fortunately safe in this instance.
The one thing you should never do. Break out a lawn chair to watch the small tsunami come in. I have seen people do that, expecting a six inch tall wave only to be shocked when the wave was over a meter tall with them trying desperately to save the small children they brought with them to watch. If it wasn't for other people helping, they would have lost at least one of their kids if not two of them.
I'm sure by the time it reached Hawaii (4,000 + miles) much of the energy was spent. I've watched the videos of the Japanese cities from that tsunami and it is scary, the quickness, depth and force.
why is a tsunami only interesting, when people die? This is a small Tsunami where you can see what's happening before and react if that happens if you are on a beach.
This was certainly a tsunami, albeit a worn out one. I live in Maui and remember this. It’s not just a low tide, it never looks like this unless some seismic activity occurs.
High tide does not go out and come back in a matter of 4mins! Let me guess, u live in Oklahoma or Iowa? Cause u obviously don’t know much about high and low tides!
Well that depends on the seafloor before the coast. And on the slope before the shelf. You have the beach like here, then a shelf beneath the surface, then a slope that goes down to the seafloor several kilometers beneath sea-level. If the slope is steep enough it can deflect some of the energy from the wave back out to the open ocean. Also if the shelf extends far enough and is really shallow far enough that can also break the wave energy. Back in 2004 Bangladesh was actually spared the worst of the tsunami because of such a long shallow shelf, whereas India and Sri Lanka had waves up to 12 meters high because of the narrower shelf. Plus the tsunami came from the North, this bay faces south, so most of the wave energy was lost going around the island.
you don't get to decide what is and isn't a tsunami just because it doesn't meet your standards of killing hundreds. And, if you had bothered to read the description, you would know that this very same tsunami killed 18-20 THOUSAND people in Japan. This tsunami in hawaii is the tsunami after travelling 3800 miles from Japan.
When water leaves and comes back within a few minutes, it's no tide but a weak tsunami from an earthquake far away! Glad that there wasn't any higher waves, because those people in the front row had no idea what happened!
The quick rush of water (if you bothered to watch) coming in and covering up the rocks was the Tsunami. A Tsunami isn't this 50 ft. huge tidal wave you were led to believe by fake news channels.
Us natives know and call it like it is. Our chants and prayers were answered by nature sparing us the nature’s force at her finest. Low tide. 😂 we know our land and ways. Low tide😤 you have no clue. 😢 Mother Nature and Father Time are in charge. You make it what you will.
tsunami is a continuous surge of water that came from an earthquake, the further the tsunami travels the weaker it is it doesn't have to be a huge wave to be a tsunami
Friends !!! ♥ ️December 4, 2021 a very vital international conference "Global Crisis. Time of Truth" organized by volunteers from 180 countries took place. Where a very important question arose: what to do to survive !!! #GlobalCrisis #CreativeSociety #Time4Truth
Who in their right minds take a “front-row seat to watch a Tsunami roll in?
Apparently those morons
I’m betting they were just there hanging out by the ocean and had no clue what was transpiring.
Um, didn't look dangerous to me
These "tourists"
stupid people
Let’s go down to the shore and see why the ocean is receding!
One of the most disappointingly DULL "tsunami" videos ever !
100%
Sorry your disappointed a lot of ppl have died in them. Your cruel
Go Be in one if so disappointed

That seemed more like an slightly aggressive tide rolling in...

you do realise this was 2012?
@@TheJoeflight I do now! Just looking for a small hole to crawl into.
Watching the water recede and seeing the underwater rocks start to pop up always give me the creeps.
People in Japan would be really impressed And they thought they had it bad

If that was a tsunami you’d better let it know, it thinks it’s a wave.
Underrated comment

I’ve had bigger waves in my bath....
For got my snoring gear 😎
It's not sunami, it's natural hi-tide
No, it wasn't. The wave was smaller because it travelled from Japan. The tide isn't usually that high at that time of day in Hawaii.
The tide can’t come in that fast. It was the remnant of a tsunami
High tide does not go out and come back in a matter of 4mins! Let me guess, u live in Oklahoma or Iowa? Cause u obviously don’t know much about high and low tides!
ياالله يعله الجمغه فرج كل مظلوم
That came in in a matter of minutes?
Nice clouds
Where was the tsunami???
Just run ask questions later ☺️
If everybody run who will answer 😝😂
Can i ask a question?
So.....high tide?
That came in that fast?
Oh, the humanity ! Hope the death toll wasn't catastrophic.
Toll. Das heißt bei uns Ebbe und Flut.😂😂
Y que hasian las personas biendo corran!!!!
I’m sorry, but was someone just blowing leaves, or cutting hedges? During a tsunami?😆
That was no Tsunami! A real Tsunami, they would not be able to outrun, especially after “waiting for the wave to actually pass the small inlet!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen, You now see actual STUPIDITY in action. You see that water suck out like that, "RUN FOREST, RUN!!!!"
Tsunami ? where lol seen more action in a kids wading pool

That's because the wave came from the north and this bay faces south. The island basically blocked most of the wave energy.
What a waste of 6 minutes of my time!
U also waste 3 minutes to type
Looks more like a tidal surge.
Its only a whale fart underwater
Во люди блин прилив От цунами не могут отличить Тебе надо видеть когда я в бассейне прыгаю Это для тебя будет конец света
I've seen bigger waves in my local pond lol
Helloooooooooo people is a freaking Tsunami
Até a pororoca no Brasil é maios forte que isso
Yang nonton 2022
Qué mentira , no hubo tsunami.
Solamente subió la marea.
Tsunami? Jajajaja. Pregúntenles a los japoneses que es un Tsunami!
and I'm still waiting for the tsnami

REALLY DULL INDEED
엄청 높은 쓰나미다 !,,,
WTF

@@nancyristigian5552 i didn't know tides rolled out and back in, in a matter of minutes.
@@oldiesmusic76 it can be. Watch some TH-cam videos. I saw some that were described as some 50 to 60 feet high from the waters surface.
