In this video we will map the Onagawa Town Than on the border of the northern and southern areas affected by the wave which destroyed by tsunami in Japan in 2011 and the immediate vicinity . We will show you how work continues on rebuilding the entire area and we can’t forget to visit the notorious places you know from videos and photos and from the social media. The video is of an educational nature and therefore the purposeful shots of destruction are not shown here, but only the illustrative and informative form. Thanks for watching like and subscribe our channel

  1. Very informative, thank you.

    One suggestion. Don't do the jerky transitions with the red outlines. It detracts from the story. A good edit should add to the story.

  2. I have some concerns about the idea of raising the ground to build on. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area, and we know about liquefaction, which is extremely dangerous during earthquakes, the most likely cause of tsunamis. It was a cause of major damage after the huge earthquake that struck Alaska in the early 1960’s. If there is an earthquake bad enough to cause another huge earthquake, it may cause the undermining of that wall and steel gate protecting the last city in this video.

  3. Why not dig in shelves!? and build on the hills simple solution and turn dangerous low ground in farming land … keep harbour for boat s fishing.🤷🏼‍♂️🤗❤️👍

  4. I love Japanese people and their culture, and was absolutely heartbroken to see such a beautiful country hurt like that. It still remains some of the most devastating events caught on camera. I hope Japan is ready for the next one, I couldn't handle seeing another country suffer like that again. The same goes for the 2004 Boxing day tsunami as well. 2 very sad day's on our under siege planet. Stay safe people.
    P.S The footage of Kesenuma and Kamaishi (excuse my spelling, I am from London) was especially horrifying😢

  5. They should have showed the entire footage of It hitting Onagawa. The building connected by a bridge.. It is beyond insane. Kamaichi City .

  6. 3:39 I don’t think the water reached that high. Or else the destruction would have been far greater.

  7. I felt sorry for them more than Ukrainian!. Mother’s nature we can’t beat it. Stay strong and rebuilding it!

  8. Sorry, best, ahhh, only bet is a 10 meter min high barrier way out at choke point into bay with a ship channel. The other passage between ocean and bay should just be sealed, like bulldoze a hill into a good 50 meter high 300 meter wide earthen dam / berm. The outer bay barrier would greatly slow the flooding, limit the amount of time wave would be moving inland, etc. To keep city dry still need to raise level 10 meters, or put in 10 meter berms. If there's a tall mountain / hill, you can make a pumped storage project out of holes made getting fill to raise city. Take off hill top, dig in shallow pool, under it, dig big pool. Make power while water flows from top to bottom pool. Then install as many wind turbines as possible to power pumps to move water to upper reservoir.

  9. 日本,怎麼會,蓋在,魚骨圖河川河流系統,上面去,不怕下雨天,和,海水倒灌,和,地層下陷!?,那是巨大型的魚骨圖河川河流系統,要靠聯合國的技術,才看的出來,,如果,要發展,就是要把,魚骨幹,也就是,要把,魚骨圖湖泊系統,和,魚骨圖池塘系統,都填起來,,魚骨圖地震系統,可以用,大量的,樹木林,補強,,反正,魚骨圖地震系統上面,不要蓋房子,房子,沒抓地力,,臺灣,的,建設,都在中央山脈兩邊,有些,都跟魚骨圖系統,重疊到,

  10. This video is much appreciated. I have been intensely studying this stupendous event and this presentation is what I have been hoping for. I am so impressed with the Japanese response and the way you are carefully considering options, preparing and moving to higher ground for residences, etc. Maybe your container homes could be made to be sealed up well and firmly anchored, or inter-connected in such a way that they might be more easily recovered intact and be re-occupied. How are the wrecked cars and trucks dealt with? Do you try to salvage them? Do you save components for reuse? Many boats must have washed out to sea and then hopefully, been recovered.

  11. Thanks to GOD Almighty that that incident did not happen in the weeny hours of the morning around 02h30 to 03h50, many would be in deep sleep & feeling groggy & would be even more slow to evacuate . Thanks for this video , it takes quite a job to clean up those places & to share with us videos on the condition of the places now .

  12. My apologies, but the changing satellite topography pictures caused an epileptic episode for me.

  13. This computerized voice makes it unnecessary for our young ones to learn correct English pronunciation.
    I'd rather have a real voice enunciate information than anything A.I.
