All I can say is "wow". This is the most awesome video I've ever seen of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami. It captures both, from the inside of a car.

If you stay in your car it will eventually capsize and/or sink and you'll have the "can't open doors/windows" problem. But anyone trying to swim through that would be crushed like a bug. Keep in mind how heavy these vehicles are that are floating around like a fishing bob. Horrible situation.

WOW, thats really scary....I'm not sure what anyone could do in a case like that but at at least the driver had those "Bosch Icon Extreme Weather" wiper blades on his car because they never missed a beat the whole time....It always amazes me how during a disaster like that or while a tornado or hurricane is tearing everything to shreads in the back yard that some people just can't put down the $&#@* video camera... "Looky yonder Bubba, here comes Daddy's truck going 300 miles an hour, you think we oughta get away from the window"?.:photo:...I'm gonna be looking for something to climb up on or a way out, not filming myself going over a cliff underwater...:eek:

Here's another one. Different point of view, a little longer, but equally powerful.
