 \subsubsection{Eyewitness Accounts}
 Eyewitness accounts detailed in~\cite{papadopoulos06} report that most people at Patong Beach observed an initial retreat of the shoreline of more than 100m followed a few minutes later by a strong wave (crest). Another less powerful wave arrived another five or ten minutes later. Eyewitness statements place the arrival time of the strong wave between 2 hours and 55 minutes to 3 hours and 5 minutes after the source rupture (09:55am to 10:05am local time).

+\subsubsection{Video Evidence}
+Two videos were sourced from the internet which include footage of the tsunami in Patong Bay on the day of the Indian Ocean Tsunami. Both videos show an
+already inundated town, they then show what is to be assumed as the second and third waves approaching and further flooding the town. The first video
+is in the very north of the town filmed from what is believed to be the roof of the Novotel Hotel. The second video is in the very south of the town
+filmed from a building next door to the Comort Resort. Crude flow rates can be estimated with landmarks and the use of a GIS and were found to be in the range of 5 to 7 metres per second in the north and 0.5 to 2 metres per second in the south. This is in agreement with results from our simulations.
