tsunami link for a 15 sec video
edit: see comment below - this video is falsely saying it is from turkey... it is from another one in japan.

unreal. f'ing trolls. i saw this video posted many times claiming it was from turkey's tsunami. i do not understand why anyone would do this.

Friend of mine spent time in Turkey while serving with US Military decades ago. He said their construction methods at the time were horrible. They would pour a multi-floor wall as a single monolithic pour. This results in all the aggregate settling to the bottom of the form resulting in a horribly weak wall.
He said he wouldn’t let his men into any of the buildings over a few stories tall because of this.
