The YouTube Earthquake–Video From Japan

March 11, 2011 at 5:05 am PT

There are plenty of places to learn about today’s earthquake in Japan, and its aftereffects. But do take a minute to stop by YouTube’s “CitizenTube” channel, where Google’s video site is collecting users’ homemade documents of the quake.

These clips won’t give you context or details. Just the visceral sense of what it’s like to be in the middle of this thing.

Meanwhile, if you want real-time news coverage of the quake but don’t want to leave YouTube, the site is happy to oblige. It is prominently advertising a link to its Al Jazeera English portal, where it is providing a live stream of the cable channel’s feed.

The first video shows the woman running outside and laying down in front of a car, underneath the power lines. I hope I remember NOT to do that if/when the big one hits Cali.

Everybody feels the “AN INCOVENIET TRUTH”..this is an eye-opener for everyone of us who sometimes or fully forget that there’s SOMEONE up there who can help us in times like this..We have to repent our faults and sins..PRAYER is the only tool key that can spare us from any calamities and difficulties in this world we’re living in…

i thought lot about this disaster really this world is not permanent for everyone so we need to be unity in this world, why like this happening in whole over the world ? we can not get the answer but everyone say different thoughts scientifically we can get one answer and religiously we can get one answer but we can not find the 100% answer. but this world should be change to the correct way people must repent their sins to god, but one day we live in this world happily forever without any difficulties
