Amazing Picture From The Japan Tsunami

I don' tknow if this picture is a fabrication or not, the site I found it on, claims it to be real. The back story is a camera was found in the debris of a cleanup and this picture was one that was found on the memory stick.  I think it's safe to say the photographer didn't survive, it looks like about 1/2 a second before the wave hit.

Real or not, just imagine.........
