Tsunami Slams American Samoa

An earthquake that registered over 8.0 on the Richter scale (some report 8.3) struck in the Pacific ocean between Samoa and American Samoa earlier today, setting off a massive tsunami, which sent residents fleeing for their lives. Villages have been flattened, and dozens have been killed.


Videos are being uploaded to YouTube, documenting the destruction in the immediate aftermath of the storm.

Here's a playlist showing some of the clips that have come in so far:
