Good for the Japanese. Always innovative. Underappreciated are the Japanese people, in my opinion.

This was plan B, as the Japanese weren't able to train Godzilla to raise and lower the gate... sigh. Also, he kept setting everything on fire.

Well, has it been proven to actually work?? Somewhere, maybe, hasn't been on the NEWS that I've seen anyway!! When it tested for real, Hope All The Money Worked!!

There is no amount of money and engineering that governments won't pay, so that the oil & gas industry can continue to use the sky as an open sewer pipe.

it might give you 5 extra minutes and sure that can save many people and get them out of harms way unless it's a real big wave then it's useless

It will only be come to close position in 30-min after activating the push button… by that time tsunami would be all over the place, unless there is a sensor that can detect an incoming tsunami is 50-miles away.

Louisiana & Mississippi & panhandle areas need this kind of protection during special circumstances. There should be more they can do to sustain those areas. It is a great idea but needed to be 2 x the size for sure if not more. And to have another purpose when not in use during normal weather would be great as long as it remains useful at any moments notice. 👍Isn't it wonderful to have geniuses in our world! Use your brains!!!! Don't keep how smart you can be hidden inside. 👍🥰

Converting Japanese Yen to Dollars. How much is that in our cash? I looked at money conversion tables for the Japanese Yen's value. $1.00 USA = $154.45 Yen. No wonder the Japanese are so good at math. USA = $ 19,415, 653.55
