The epicentre of the quake was about 100 miles off the coast of Sendai.
The size of the earthquake on the Richter scale was measured at 8.9.
As you can see by this image the worst hit area was the Eastern coast of Japan, this was the forefront on the tsunami that caused most of the devastation. This tsunami was devastating to Japan; the waves tossed around cars like they were toys and simply rolled over building, leaving nothing in its wake.
