El Nino: Let The Ocean Waves REALLY Crash On The Coasts

A huge wave about to send the vehicle in the
circle flying last week in coastal Chile. 
We're having the near record strong El Nino, the periodic warming of the eastern Pacific Ocean, which mucks up worldwide weather patterns.

Of course, the places most affected by all this are those near the epicenter of El Nino, namely the west coasts of North and South America.

We saw this recently, as erosion from Pacific storms, some driven by El Nino, threatened to dump California buildings into the Pacific Ocean.

It's just as bad in Chile, where El Nino driven storms are causing havoc.

Here's a video of a recent storm smashing the Chilean coast. Luckily, the occupants in the emergency vehicle you'll see in the video being tossed by the waves are OK.

Bystanders braved the waves to help the people inside the vehicle get out. Still, very scary.
