Shocking aerial footage captures the ocean receding dramatically before a devastating tsunami surge, moments after the massive M8.8 earthquake struck off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula.
The terrifying moment shows the raw power of nature as the sea pulls back, exposing the seabed, before unleashing a towering wall of water toward coastal towns.
Tsunami warnings were issued across the Pacific - from Russia and Japan to Hawaii and the U.S. West Coast.
Evacuations are underway.
This is the calm before catastrophe.
