    Samoa Tsunami photos

    I think this is the right place to post this.

    Here is a link to a series of photos of the Samoa Tsunami.

    Notice the wave to the size of the vehicles that are being washed around.

    Don't miss the photo of the container in the wash.

    Photos here-

    I was told by the boat that gave the photos one of the three photographers drown taking photos.

    Cheers
    Scott
