Disaster Recovery Earthquake Video
This is a chronology of devastation, destruction, and loss of property complied for contingency and disaster recovery planners. The footage includes vital statistics and facts regarding one of nature’s deadliest disasters.
Among the information included are the 1995 Kobe, Japan earthquake, the 1994 Los Angeles, CA disaster, and the 1989 San Francisco, CA catastrophe.
Flood Video
This video is a chronology of over 100 years of damage and destruction caused by raging flood waters. You can talk about The Great Flood of ‘93 that flooded the Midwest, but what about the Southeast flood of ‘94, the Great Flood of ‘77, and the Johnstown Flood of 1889? This video is filled with facts, statistics and much, much more!
Disaster Recovery Hurricane Video
From June to November, hurricanes form in the Atlantic and pose danger to the United States. These powerful storms also form in the Pacific where they are called typhoons; and in the Indian Ocean, where they’re called cyclones. But whatever their names, these storms all pack the same ingredients: strong winds, extreme low pressure and tons of moisture.
This video contains footage of past hurricanes and their damage. Lessons learned and recovery methods are also included. See firsthand the devastation which occurred in Galveston in 1900 where 8,000 people lost their lives. Witness the destruction of Hurricane Camille along the gulf coast in 1969.
Also learn how a hurricane’s impact can carry beyond the coastal areas to affect businesses and homes inland. This video is a must for anyone interested in protecting their business from potential hurricane damage.
Disaster Recovery Tornado Video
Twisters can form anywhere. They can strike in any country or any state if the conditions are right. But businesses in the United States are especially vulnerable, since more tornados form in the skies of the U.S. then any other part of the world.
See firsthand the damage these twisters cause and learn how others recovered from the destruction.

The most exciting disaster video available can now be yours. This video features fascinating footage (not narrated) of famous disasters such as the 1995 Kobe, Japan Earthquake, Los Angeles Earthquake of ‘94, The Great Flood of ‘93, Hurricane Andrew, San Francisco Earthquake, Oakland Fires, World Trade Center Bombings, The First Interstate Bank fire, The Great Chicago Flood, Hurricane Hugo and many more…
A Lesson in Recovery

This video details the struggle the industrial city has made to return to its pre-earthquake state.
Fascinating Footage taken shortly after the quake allows you to see firsthand the damage which occurred to businesses and other buildings. Updated footage, taken almost a year later, allows a view of the recovery process.
