Trailer for "Surviving Japan"

Earlier this year Chris Noland volunteered to help cleanup the devastation from the 9.0 quake and tsunami in Northeastern Japan. While doing so he also started to produce a very interesting documentary entitled "Surviving Japan". In this film he and his assistants talk to many Japanese citizens, the government and TEPCO and their stories tell what really is happening now in the wake of the natural and nuclear disasters. Here is the trailer for this film:



Please visit and support the production of this documentary at the official Surviving Japan kickstarter website.

Japan Prediction: Nuclear Holocaust, Tokyo Evacuated

March 19, 2011: Via NEWiS - Exclusive!!! Who predicted disaster in Japan

In the early 2000s, Russian blogger/engineer Artem Dragunov had a motorcycle accident and was in a coma for 2 days. After that he started having dreams about the future, writing them on his blog, and many of them have come true! On February 21, 2011 he predicted the recent earthquake in Japan.

And his future prediction for Japan is very dire:

And on March 11th, the day of the quake, he wrote the below comment on his blog Guest from the Future Dream 20022011:

"Let's count. Dreamed a dream the night of Feb. 21. Today 11. Three weeks shorter.
Just at that time dreamed of a lot of water and a couple of big fucking. 11 plus 21 - the beginning of May. HERE Remember - early May .."


Hopefully, this time he'll be wrong.

Japan's Earthquake Alarm System TV Broadcast

Here is a truly incredible video showing how Japan's ElarmS system worked:



"ElarmS, or Earthquake Alarm Systems, can provide warning of ground shaking during an earthquake. The objective is to rapidly detect the initiation of an earthquake, estimate the level of ground shaking to be expected, and issue a warning before significant ground shaking starts."

Japan sees first tsunami waves from Chile quake

February 28, 2010

Via CNN

(CNN) -- Tsunamis from the deadly 8.8-magnitude earthquake in Chile rippled across the Japanese coast Sunday, appearing to get taller with every wave.

The first one, a 4-inch wave, hit Minami Torishima, according to the Japanese meteorological agency. Minami Torishima is a small island in the Pacific Ocean.

A few more waves later, the tallest one yet at about 4 feet hit the Kuji Port in Hokkaido, the meteorological agency said.

Tens of thousands of residents evacuated Sunday morning from coastal Japan in anticipation of a possible tsunami after the earthquake. Authorities urged evacuees to stay away because a second and third round of waves could gain strength.

The northern part of the main island could be hit by a tsunami at least 9 feet high, according to the meteorological agency.

Sunday's alert was Japan's first major tsunami warning in more than 15 years, the agency reported. In 1960, a tsunami spawned by Chile's 1960 earthquake killed 140 people in Japan.
