I live in NJ and to see those boardwalks GONE, it's just crazy shit. I have been to those boardwalks about like 5-10 times each.

that shit cray.....sorry for them people that lost their home =( and family....

If only the girl in picture 13 had a nicer arse. That is a lot of bad damage, I feel bad for the people that lost there homes, cars etc.

This is crazy, I didn't know it was that bad :O Nothing ever happens where I live besides tornadoes, but we haven't had one of those in like 6 years.. Now we have to spend more money to fix up the east coast. |:|

Estimated of $60 billion in Superstorm Sandy devastation, one of worst US clean-up bills.

this is really sad. I'm surprised that the hurricane hit new york, as it formed of the coast of africa. it's going to cause millions of dollars in damage and kill tons of people... >
