I've been researching the subject since 2008, I've always seen videos of the 2004 tsunami but always following the waves from above or far angles to see just one wave invading

recently I went to research about the 2011 tsunami in Japan and I already had a little better technology for filming, the point is that I found these 3 videos that show the wave from a front perspective, on the horizon where we can see the real size and how a tsunami actually works In this first video the cameraman managed to get the real size of the wave, you see it on the horizon and there are trees, it is possible to notice that the wave is still bending and already exceeds the trees, estimating 20 meters more, then it breaks and we can see a huge explosion that extends to the sky, I can't even imagine the size of it and coming to meet you

The second video shows the wave invading a village and was recorded from a school apparently, it is possible to see in the upper left corner that it looks like the village is already "in the middle of the open sea" and then you see the wave invading and destroying everything again, it's too scary

The third video I think many have seen but it shows a highway with cars and houses behind what seems to be a coastal village, and in the background what seems to be waves and waves as if they were in the open sea, only that a few meters away one of them starts to explode in the middle of these houses and well, the cameraman stops recording to save his life

These are the scariest videos I've ever seen, they show what it's like to be face to face and the true size of the waves, they just overtake trees and houses.
