I commend the Japanese for your calmness, but running in the streets where you could be struck or even worse crushed by falling debris is not very smart. 2 thumbs up for your engineering, but 2 thumbs down for running into the streets where you have power lines, and tall buildings with things called windows that can shatter. And had the epicenter been any closer to Tokyo I guarantee most of those people in the street would be dead!!! Sad to say but true.

Tsunami hit not FUKUOKA but FUKUSHIMA. Fukuoka is south part of Japan, 1000km away from Fukushima and Sendai.

@privatesensei No, next to the exterior wall of buildings is considered by almost all earthquake safety organizations as the ABSOLUTE WORST place to be. Interior building collapses during earthquakes are in fact quite rare. The majority of direct earthquake related deaths are caused by smaller pieces of debris, which standing next to the exterior wall of a building provides an endless supply of. 20lb piece of wall siding falling from a few stories up = death.

I'm surprised the people at the school didn’t stop you from running outside. You went from the safest place, to the absolute most dangerous place. In the future - try to remember to stay inside.
-
What were those people doing outside on Kanda streets? Is there any place more dangerous?
