US tourist documents Typhoon Jebi devastation covering Japan's streets

  • 6 years ago
A US tourist in Osaka, Japan, captured the devastation of Typhoon Jebi covering the city's streets.

In the footage, windows are blown out and vehicles are tilted sideways from the sheer force of the gale.

" At the beginning of Typhoon Jebi, the wind blew a bike over into the street. The bike was a danger to oncoming traffic so I went outside to move it so it didn't hurt anyone," said the filmer, Julian Andrade. "Moments later when I was still outside, the wind blew over a small truck onto another car."

"When we were at the truck, the window shot out the side of a building, shooting stone and glass at us," he added.

Typhoon Jebi left a trail of destruction after landing in the west of the country, killing 10 people and ravaging infrastructure.
