Tsunami strikes large boats. . .


I've got to admire the engineers who designed that bridge in the
first part of the video. It took hits from a couple of steel
boats in the 60 to 80-foot range and apparently emerged
unscathed. Note the cars driving over the bridge as the
boats get driven underneath.

Did you see the crewman in red in the second big boat that went over the
wall backwards near the bridge try to jump off the bow and get slammed
around at right angles like something hit him hard? He's dead for sure.
