Real reason: Godzilla
I didn’t care for this video.
*If you ask a Japanese person why these walls are being built so tall…*
Kaiju.
100% this is because kaiju.. atleast until they can finish the huge ass mechs
The background music tries way to hard to make it emotionally impactful and it ruins the whole video.
Dude looks like Ramsay Bolton from Game of Thrones
The Wave Proof Fence
Problem is, when you have a major quake, the land the walls are built on can subside by several feet.
This is what happened in 2011. Everybody has seen the video of the water spilling over the seawall and taking cars with it. It was built high enough. But the land itself sank.
It’s hard to engineer around such things. So the Japanese are busy trying to address what can be saved in a lesser quake/tsunami.
