Incredible footage of devastating tsunami

The 5th largest earthquake recorded since 1900 devastated Japan and triggered a massive 23ft high tsunami that destroyed everything in its path. The exact death toll from the largest quake in Japan’s history has yet to be determined, but at least 60 dead and many more missing. Hawaii was hit with the first tsunami waves just after 8am this morning, and California was preparing for contact just before noon eastern time. Get the latest updates on The Blaze live blog and watch the incredible footage of the moment the quake struck Japan, along with the helicopter footage which shows the tsunami gobbling up everything in its path as it plowed through the countryside.

According to the AP: “Oil prices dipped below $100 for the first time this month.The quake is likely to cut short-term demand for crude from Japan, which is the world’s third biggest oil consumer. So far, a Saudi Arabian “Day of Rage” set for Friday has not materialized,which may also be holding oil prices lower than expected.” Get the full story from The Blaze HERE.

While residents of cities in the eastern half of the country celebrated, raising the flags of the old monarchy, the mood in Tripoli was bleak. Residents were afraid to leave their houses, saying pro-Gadhafi forces were opening fire randomly in the streets.
