That's a well built airport! Not a thing broke or fell and the people were so calm. Impressive.

This shows the benefit of the earthquake training the Japanese people get starting in primary school and even before. It also shows how sensible they are and stayed calm, in fact treated it almost lightly. Much admiration to them, In fact the calmness of the Japanese clearly rubbed off onto the overseas tourists who also were calmed by this sign of sensible behaviour.

Another area to watch out for is around Yellowstone. Great advanced critical thinking skills by our brain trusts & dotting the landscape around it with fracking also.

Japanese buildings are very well built and safe during large earthquakes. It is safer to stay inside buildings rather than rushing to outside. Particularly, schools and hospitals are the safest buildings to protect children and the vulnerable people. My brother was an architect, and he built many hospitals. During that large earthquake, he said that he was not worried at all but worrying about how to go back home since all the trains ware not running. All the bullet trains in the area came to a stop safely thanks to the latest technology. The system senses the first wave that travels faster than the main tremor, and issues a signal to stop the trains. As a result, no train was derailed. Japanese people stayed calm during this earthquake since they knew that most of the things will stand any large earth quakes. It is hard to believe that most of the building withstood the violent quake before they were destroyed by Tsunami.

I find this earthquake especially interesting because of all the Americans who were in Japan at the time. You see so many recordings of the quakes uploaded to KZread by Americans who just happened to be in Japan at the time. Since this was 2011 and KZread was still sort of new, I can only imagine what it would be like seeing all of these videos being uploaded around the same time.

Japanese tend to stay calm and proceed in an orderly fashion. If you compare this with the behaviour during the earth quake in Haiti, cultural differences couldn't be bigger.

In Japan all new buildings are constructed to withstand earthquakes. The airport would have been to the highest standard technology possible, very safe, probably safer than the guaranteed debris dropping outside. Although going outside in most other countrys is always protocol.

I have witnessed and will remember that day for a very long time. Was in the shower when it happened for me.

These people here were perfect. Sit down, maybe a bit closer too the verticle supports next time. Stay calm, be aware of what's above you and don't panic. The Japanese as well as us Californians go through earthquakes every year and most of us know how to ride them out but like in this airport. you have people from all around the world that may not have earthquakes where they live. These are the people that might ruin the calm so those are the ones you have to distract by talking to them and reassuring them everything will be fine. These people here were outstanding!

Well, I'll assume that you know about the regulations when it comes to buildings in Mexico, they became important since 1985, the only thing that throws everything about it away is the lack of knowledge from people or not wanting to pay someone to design a house or building, so we get what we deserve for being like that (not all I'll say)

Whoever build that building DAMN YOU ARE SO SMART! I hope I can build like this too, for Mindanao.

I see some experienced foreigners on this video. My country is very seismic as well, so I recognize the cover-your-head protocol. Shout out to the structural engineers who worked on Japan's buildings. In my country we don't have that many good structures, but I'm going to Japan on an exchange program in two years, and this is certainly very calming. I trust I will be okay in case of an earthquake.

While I know this was terrifying, I find it admirable that everyone kept their calm, sat on the ground, and rode out the earthquake. Sometimes the best action is to just sit there. Like someone mentioned in another comment, the unsung heroes are the engineers who built the airport to withstand such strong shaking.

The earthquake resistant buildings must be really good. When I was in the RAF stationed in Akrotiri, Cyprus, we got earth tremors where it was totally impossible to stay on your feet. Admittedly I was working outside & experiencing the full effect

I really love how they are still smiling and laughing even in an *earthquake* like seriously. I mean can the US give a little bit of a better warning?

Hi, I’m Japanese and I was 4 years old when this happened. I guess I’m fluent in English because I lived in America before. I decided to write this because recent reports say that there’s going to be a very big earthquake coming up in Japan in the next 10 to 30 years. By the way I’m copying and pasting this to most of the Great East Japan Earthquake videos I can find, so that many people can read it :) 4 years old is the age when I was in preschool (or kindergarten?), and I was on my mom’s bicycle (in japan, there are these kinds of bicycles called mamachari that most moms with kids have, and they have seats where kids can sit at the back or the front). Anyways, I don’t remember what I saw or felt at that time because I was so young plus I was sleeping... but my mom recently told me that the utility poles were shaking sideways, even though we lived in a place that was about 400km (248.55 miles) away from where the earthquake occurred. and I think you guys know, but Japan suffers from A LOT of earthquakes. Earthquakes with the magnitude of 1 to 5 are quite normal for us because they happen all the time. But that doesn’t mean that we’re not scared of them. We definitely get scared and worried because we know big, tragic earthquakes can happen. Some people have traumas, because their mom, dad, sister, brother, grandma, grandpa, friend, or pet passed away from an earthquake. or maybe because they witnessed big earthquakes or tsunamis before. In this 3.11.2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, more than 22,000 people have been reported dead or missing. Every Japanese citizen pray and mourn the loss of the victims on March 11th. Humans actually lose their lives from natural disasters like this, and in this case of earthquakes, people can die from 1)drowning from tsunamis 2)hit/squashed by furniture that fell to the ground (suffocation) 3)burned to death (by fire) 4)other diseases caused when a person spends their time at the evacuation shelter too much (this especially happens to old people/ the elderly, because they often have chronic illnesses/diseases.) I don’t know where you’re from, but some of you might think “wow this is so scary, but big earthquakes won’t happen in my country. we’re totally fine.”. I know, I really know- that earthquakes are rare in some countries. But I feel like it’s still better to prepare for them. In Japan, buildings have become stronger than ever, and citizens have prepared things just in case. Most of us have emergency kits/bags to bring outside when disasters happen. In Tokyo Disneyland, all employees participate in evacuation drills that are held about once in two days. What I’m trying to say is, preparation is necessary.. but even if we prepare a lot, sometimes we can’t win against nature. Sorry for writing this long. Thank you for all of the support - with money, materials, or words - people all around the world have given us. STAY SAFE FROM COVID!!

that shake went for ages

The Japanese earthquake & disaster warning & management system is the most advanced in this world.

It seems like a bad idea for people inside a shaking building to watch live coverage of other shaking interiors. Better to pay attention to your own current situation.

Worlds in trouble when you see cellphones go up instead of being safe and aware w/free hands to help

John Rambo the Japanese are highly trained in this sort of sense. There's hardly ever a need to assist, and if there's a need, typically something is handled before you even have the time to register the situation.

Oh, but here you are watching and actually posted a comment on a phone video... smh 🤔

Narita.

Was this Sendai Airport? Is there a warning system that goes out prior to an earthquake? The reason I say that is someone said 7.9 right as it was starting?

Khataroo yes japan has an early warning system so the further away from the epicenter the more time they have for a warning

This was not the Sendai Airport. It washed away and killed the people inside because of the tsumami.

No, this is Tokyo Narita airport. The one that got washed away was in Sendai. I saw it recently on KZread, in Japanese. Saw planes outside drifting away, all first floor under water level, workers calling out saying they're stuck & didn't know if they'll make it.

Were is this airport?

Maybe Narita Airport

I don't think all those alarms are loud and annoying enough. How exactly are overlapping blaring tones supposed to help? I guess they make everyone want to leave the building.

Alarm are meant to do that. Loud and blaring to let other people know something had happened. Warning them. Wake them up from stupor. Force them to think. Push their body to move. Probably.

At 6:53 Was that American Actor Jason Bateman?

" English please..." hahahahahaha

Glory to the Japanese builders!

Lucky u didnt went in the danger zone this was like 6 magnitude the danger zone was like 9 which can destroyed buildings easily

Is it me, or is this video just a bunch of people waiting in line at the airport. I see no panic or concern.

THAT is the beauty of it. Not sure which airport this is though. Not so near the epicenter I would think. Not at Sundii? (sp?) No talk of Tsunami here.

This can't be the Mag-9 event. Is this the large EQ the day, or so, before the 9? Where is this Airport?

Narita airport wasn't hit mag 9. It was north from Tokyo that was mag 9

Why stay in a building during an earthquake? Go outside where nothing can fall on you.

p.s. Never occurred to me to sit there with my hand over my head! No Way!!
