Video of evacuation from the tsunami of the Great East Japan Earthquake in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture

This video was taken near the mouth of the Nanakita River in Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture Japan, while escaping from the massive tsunami caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake. I must say it was scary, but after the earthquake, I only have some memories of that day, and strangely enough, I don’t remember the sounds at all.
There was traffic everywhere around Sendai Port, so I was prepared to die until I happened to find this road, but this video was taken at 3:37pm, and given the terrain, I don’t think there was any other way to survive.
There are signs of a tsunami on the bridge piers, and white waves in some places, but the image quality is poor so it’s hard to tell.
