  1. This woman has one of the most inspiring and sad stories to have come out of such a tragic event. The word ‘hero’ gets used too often these days, but this woman was a true hero. God only knows what her last moments were like, the pictures I’ve seen from the roof during the tsunami were horrific. To Mikey Endo and all the unheard of hero’s and victims of 3/11, I salute you all, from London with ❤👍👍👍

  2. Amazing woman. Most people including myself wouldn't have done that. I wish she would've left when she still could but she chose to save as many people as possible. Very sad

  3. A very brave girl with a very sad end, who would have thought the water would have reached such heights

  4. Remembering Miki who was so brave, her husband and her family. Prayers and love from Scotland God be with you all.🌌🌎💙🙏

  5. Я из России, и никогда не видел таких затоплений. Мики смелая женщина

  6. why did she stay? you give announcements, everybody hears them, people evacuate. who exactly is sitting, watching tv while a 10 meter tsunami is going through the town, after the biggest earthquake in history of the country – there wouldn't be any people who DON'T know a tsunami is coming. who did she have to inform there's a tsunami, right to the point of her building being destroyed???

  7. First, I would like to say thank you for your videos as I find them very informative and educational. However, please allow me to suggest one thing which I have noticed on most of your videos. Can you please cut down the usage of screen effect in your video editing? Though, they may look cool or interesting but they do make the viewing very intrusively or even fatiguing.

  8. "Something unforeseen happened" not "something unseen happened". Everyone would have been able to see it.
    Otherwise, good video about that horrible day.
