Japan
On Friday 11th March 2011 Japan was hit by an Earthquake with a magnitude of 9, although the quake didn’t cause much damage the Tsunami that hit with outrageous force was devastating!!
This is yet another sign of Mother Nature at her worst!
Japan is prepared for such Earthquakes with most of their buildings built on springs so they just sway, and they also thought they were prepared for such tsunami as there was a 10m barrier meant to protect seaside villages, but the wall didn’t have a chance with this tsunami.
NOW the Nuclear plant that runs electricity in Japan is on the verge of total meltdown, with leaks already recorded. What a frightening thought!
