    For more than 20 years, this is my first time watching the most complete compilation of all the footages in chronological order and even in HD. And I'm fascinated by the way they keep the younger brother interview and put it in the end after the older brother tells us his struggle. Hats off to the team that making this doc.

    I wonder where is she now? I mean the girl save by him. Where are her parents that time.

    So sad. My friend that I knew and met in California was living in Thailand when the Tsunami hit. He said he was lucky he was cheap because he lived in an apartment far enough away when it came through. He was on the 2nd floor and the water rushed through his apartment and he only had his shorts on and his wallet in his pocket.
    He was/is a teacher and taught children how to speak English. So many children he knew and saw the day before were all gone. The days after were horrible as the days were hot and you can smell the many bodies that were decomposing in the rubbish. Some bodies were even in the trees.
    Heartbreaking.💔

    I watched all the episodes yesterday. I did cry watching it. I followed most of their survivors stories for the last 20 years and Iearn a lot about Tsunamis. RIP all those people left the world so soon that day and I hope the survivors of this tragedy are doing well.

    9:15 excellent explanation of how a tsunami forms and how it would appear to an onlooker. It’s just a massive wall of water that sweeps away anything in its path.

  21. @hori166

    It's a tragedy that nobody knew that tsunamis almost always occur after an earthquake in coastal areas. Even though the Japanese know this, they were slow to react following the much larger 2011 Tohoku Earthquake which was 7 years after this disaster.

    really good documentary, somehow its remembering me the 2009 earthquake on my place, electricity off, so many people die hit by a house/building 😢
    just yesterday, the earthquake strikes again despite its not strong as 2009 but still its makes people here worry more over our city was close to the sea😢

    I was crying like baby, but the most I cried when Theo has been found. Those were happy tears. For me my sibilings are most important thing. Sibilings should always be your best friend.

    I am a person who was also a victim of the Tsunami in Aceh, Indonesia, an event that was also very scary was that our car was speeding until it hit many people on the road 😭😭

    I truly can't brain the fact that "…water being LIFTED VERTICALLY" and people were going with their day OBLIVIOUS on what was about to unfold in the next 60 minutes. Like ZERO WARNINGS, 0-100 just like that.

  34. @oldtabrough1026

    Good documentary. Is there a part 2? It was because of this incident that I got to know the word "tsunami" and I think the world learned this too.

  36. @abizarghiffary9563

    Thirteen years after the Aceh tsunami, in 2017, I finally visited the city known as the Verandah of Mecca. At that time, I wondered what it would be like if such a disaster happened in my hometown. A year later, on September 28, 2018, an earthquake and tsunami struck my city, Palu. Some of my relatives became victims; some passed away because of the tsunami, and others are still missing, buried under rubble. Through this film, those memories come back to life. I hope the victims rest peacefully.

  37. @calture5086

    The team in Hawaii waited 45 min after the earthquake hit, knowing a tsunami was underway, to start alerting the affected countries? Woww! That's super helpful.

  38. @commedesgarcons1017

    I live in West Java, Indonesia
    This was a huge news then
    Hundreds of thousands of people died
    I can't stop my tears from falling
    My condolences to all the people who lost their loved ones
    May they all rest in peace
    And to all the survivors
    May you all be strengthened

    Excellent documentary, which is full of facts. Being living in a city more than 2000 km from the tsunami affected area, i can assume the difficult time people had hone through. MY SUGGESTION is that you should also cover those lucky people who had left the place well in time. Some of the people i have come to know are the film actress of bollywood who was in phuket and was on the top floor room and had just returned to the room minutes before the tsunami. Another indian civil servant who had just taken off from Port Blair or Chennai airports. The pilot on arrival had announced CONGRATULATIONS and the passengers were surprised to hear these words because they had thought that they may have survived mal function of the aircraft. Only after reaching the baggage belt that they came to know what they have survived from.

    I live in Chile a country super prepare to face earthquakes however You don't have so much to do when a tsunami hits The coast. We know that when an earthquake occurs and You are by The sea You have to run to the highest places Even buildings. Cities have signals that indicate where to go in case of tsunami. A tsunami is so dangerous and destructive, the only thing You can do is to keep away in a highest place and watch the destruction😢.

    When a disaster hits, you have no other choice but to unify. Let’s not wait for bad times to care for & help each other. Get rid of this individualist mindset. Instead of me, me, me, let’s try WE. ✌🏼
