yuz Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) How come there are no numbers about the approximate number of victims anywhere? Am I just missing them or something? Too soon to find out. This all has to settle before anyone can even focus on that at the moment unfortunately. You can literally see people driving/running away from the wave atm. I had a friend who was a peacekeeper. He had to go dig out bodies....this is going to happen in Japan soon. This makes me so sad. My home country being destroyed...

WestCoastCanucks Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Just horrific. Thoughts and prayers to everyone in Japan. Really does seem something out of a movie watching those devastating images. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super19 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I'm without a TV, so I can't watch any of the footage besides the one 2.5 minute video I watched from the OP's post. Regardless, I hope the people escape the worst of it and recover quickly. They're quite the resilient nation. i only have basic cable..

Justin. Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 This is horrific. 8.9 and no one saw it coming... One woman has died so far due a collapsed building according to my feed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil_314 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) DEFINITELY pray for the people in Japan! EDIT: this puts so much perspective into things, about what's really important (like someone else said earlier) I can't even IMAGINE what it's like to go through something like that (too terrified to look) God bless that land and hope the damage/casualties are minimal and that their lives can indeed pick back up to normal Edited March 11, 2011 by h0cky4r33k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin. Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Japan is handling this well, thankfully. They're actually going back into their offices and resuming their workdays.. Preparations have been well in place ahead of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shattenkirk's Bald Spot Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 This is tragic. You know, with all these things happening it does make me think that this is all freakishly similar to what the Christian religion writes to be 'the end times.' I'm not sayin, I'm just sayin.
