Watch Coast Guard Ship Ride A Tsunami

This gripping video captures a Japanese Coast Guard ship battling the monstrous tsunami waves that struck Japan in 2011. As walls of water surge toward shore, the vessel powers directly into them, rising and plunging like a toy in a storm. Crew members brace for impact while the ship’s bow disappears beneath the towering swell, only to emerge seconds later—intact and charging forward. It's a harrowing yet awe-inspiring display of human resolve and engineering in the face of nature’s fury.
