A three minute clip, taken by a man who kept filming as he was swept away in his car, from Channel Four's Japan's Tsunami: Caught on Camera. Full screen viewing recommended.
[But why (oh why) can't they just have subtitles instead of an English voice-over. This particular clip isn't too bad, but for most of the programme they used native Japanese - speaking heavily-accented English - to voice over the original Japanese commentary. What's the point? If you're going to have a voice-over then at least let them keep their dignity by speaking properly, instead of with a kind of caricatured "ah so honolable gentleman" accent. But yes, even better: subtitles.]
