Again the video doesn't do it justice. I saw a full on wave come down the canal, and actually was a tad bit scared for a second. Then I manned up. =================== Ignore below =================== Hawaii Tsunami Hawaii Tsunami Hawaii Tsunami Hawaii Tsunami Ultimate Tsunami - Honolulu Hawaii Ultimate Tsunami - Honolulu Hawaii Ultimate Tsunami - Honolulu Hawaii Ultimate Tsunami - Honolulu Hawaii Tsunami wave hits Kona, Hawaii Tsunami wave hits Kona, Hawaii Tsunami wave hits Kona, Hawaii Tsunami wave hits Kona, Hawaii Super Hawaii Tsunami [This Will Happen] Super Hawaii Tsunami [This Will Happen] Super Hawaii Tsunami [This Will Happen] Super Hawaii Tsunami [This Will Happen]
