the death toll is expect to rise to more than 24,000. and many european countries lost citizens.

quote:

Countries around the world had people among the dead. Britain reported 11 of its citizens had died; Norway 10; Sweden 9; Japan 9; Germany four; Denmark three. Those numbers likely would rise. Sri Lanka said 72 foreign tourists were killed, and Thailand said 35 of the dead were foreigners.

this is worse than 9/11..

death toll wise yes, this is horrible. But I would say 9/11 was worse, since it was pure human hatred that caused so many deaths. This was an unavoidable natural disaster.

So my memory is fading at my old age...someone tell me which foreign country was the first to send relief aid?

Originally posted by Nou ABC put the death toll at 23,700 and an Indian Territory off the coast has not reported, but they think that upto 3000 could have died there, putting the toll over 25,000 people. This is has to be the most widespread natural disaster in the history of man?

the chinese have recently built some of the largest dams in the entire world, because floods along the yangtze and yellow rivers have killed millions in past years. i think thats much worse.

Originally posted by Nou I didnt say worse. I said most widespread, as in affecting the largest area. On that note, the earthquake in Bam Iran a year ago to the day this one happend, killed like 30,000 people, so this isnt as bad. Yet.

ohh, well, the earth has to let out some built up tension, too bad its people that take the brunt of it.

what? its a perfectly legitimate question. all im wondering is if we lost any people that are known worldwide in this disaster.
im not blowing off everyone else who died. of course i feel terrible for them. this will devastate that area for a long long time.

and just imagine how much greater the devastation will be when the canary islands slide into the ocean, like someone else said in this thread. worlds goin to shit. those appalachian mountains will play a huge role in saving lives. new york, d.c., boston, jersey, pittsburgh, all gone.

what a bloody tragedy

Originally posted by Ian^ actually the weird thing here is that I watched a show on Tsunami's and mega-tsunamis (not the ones caused by earthquakes but large islands falling into the sea) just 3 or 4 nights ago, they've predicted that one of the canary isles (where I holiday) called La Palma is slowly falling ionto the sea and if it does, a tsunami about 20 times the size of this will devastate the entire east coast of the usa if it happens.

i had heard of this earlier but wtf, TWENTY times this one? how much is that in metres? that would probably hit my house though sinking along with an island must be even worse

there's also this old bullshit legend about an island that was seen many years ago that will come back from under the ocean, sinking my island madeira as a consequence

go alarmism :\
