A split second b4 Tsunami hits...

½ a second before tsunami
The last picture! There are people who believe in God, there are others who don't believe,
but we must understand that we are small when nature hits....

This picture was taken on the banks of Sumatra Island (the height of waves was of approx. 32 m = 105 ft). It was found saved in a digital camera, 1 ½ years after the disaster.

We cannot know for sure, but very likely the one who took the picture is not alive any more

(it was just a matter of seconds).
Today we can see the last image he/she saw before ending life on Earth!

just looking at the houses, i didn't think it was a real pic of Sumatra Island. So I dug up this: http://www.snopes.com/photos/tsunami/sumatra.asp

It's actually a picture of a dust storm in Australia in Nov 2002. You can see the original date / time stamp was obscured in the lower right hand corner.

Thanks for verifying, Cerr......I'll leave the pic up anyway since it's still effective whether dust or wave......

That picture is actually me starting up my G35 Coupe in the parking lot behind the houses. One hell of an exhaust system!

Seriously though a very cool pic!
