tv's number one daily viral video show, "right this minute." a stunning scene as a 50,000 pound humpback gets between a shark and a snorkeler. >> it it puts her under its protective pectoral fin. >> meet the whale biologist behind the ultimate underwater experience. >> i spent the last 28 years protecting whales and they just protected me. to hit the street in these conditions you have to really want to ride your motorcycle. why this slick trip is very quick. a baby boy is born at home. >> he's precious. he's perfect. >> but see the surprise that changes everything. >> what? >> are you serious? >> we've got christian, oli, charity, nick and gayle breaking

down the best on the web. including your chance to see -- >> someone extremely strong get it wrong. >> how a workout guru's fail might make you feel better about your own. >> oh, oh, oh! >> if you're like biologist nan howzer, this is what you want to see, a beautiful humpback whale, just spreading its fins. what's really cool about this video is she's actually able to reach out and touch. look how close she gets, right up on the eyeball. but i like this shot right here, where you could see how small she is, compared to how big this 50,000 pound behemoth is. watch what happens right here. nan says the whale comes up to her and pushes her and she claims that right here, it puts her under its protective pectoral fin. >> what is it protecting her from? where is the shark?

>> right. oh my gosh. >> there's a great big tiger shark over there. >> oh, yeah. >> you were right, christian. they're like okay, everybody, come on in. she gets back up on this boat and watch what happens here. everybody okay? you all right? you okay, girl? she's like yeah, i'm okay. >> i love you, too. >> because this is "right this minute," we get the story behind the video so we go via skype to the cooke islands to chat with nan houwzer "right this minute." thank you for joining us. [ cheers and applause ] >> thank you. >> did you see the shark before the whale started moving to protect you? >> i was so shocked the whale had me on his head, his chin and then his back. i knew in the distance there was another whale tail slapping and i was just trying to stay cool, because i really thought that i was going to be killed by this

whale. >> how did you whale's behavior as it was happening? >> i was more concerned that i had to get away from him, and so it wasn't until i saw the shark, it was the biggest tiger shark i'd ever seen. it was huge. then i kind of went ahh! i got to get out of here. >> how rof dent are you in the feeling the whale was protecting you and maybe not just our human spirit wanting to believe a large animal is protecting it us. >> it was his eye. i knew he was trying to tell me something. i read papers by friends of mine, scientific papers like robert pittman, where he writes about altruism in humpbacks. they will rush in. like a house is on fire, a fireman runs in, they'll risk their lives to protect other animals and they just protected me. >> you have beautiful imagery of the whale looking like it's doing pir receiouettes in the w and getting close to you again. >> four days later, the whale

that was tail slapping was coming underneath me from the abyss and took her pectoral fins and she embraced me, and it was my birthday, and i turned around, everyone was crying on the boat including the director of the film. he goes, i'm crying over a whale and i never even cried when my wife left me." >> thank you and happy birthday. [ applause ] >> happy birthday! you got to know that this guy is a relatively new rider, because to even attempt to go out on roads like this, you have to really want to ride your motorcycle. >> is it a snowmobile? >> no, this is sport bike with stock street tires, he is ais, and he even admits this was a foolish idea. he's a new rider. doesn't have the proper gear on him. we know what's about to happen so let's just watch it. >> like 2 miles an hour. >> there's just no way to keep a

motorcycle upright in conditions like that, when you don't have special tires. he goes down, of course, crashes. he's not injured. he even says in his description to us, wearing jeans, lightweight shoes, should not have attempted this at all but he wanted to ride. he walked the bike back home, put it away and got on a city bus to go to work, like most people do. >> oh, but it sounds like it was his only ride, so the poor guy just gave it a shot. >> he did. everybody just make way! [ honking ] this suv comes charging up the icy slope. lots of people walking nearby. the driver is letting everybody know get out of the way, i need momentum to make it to the top of the hill because it's super slippery. >> we've seen stuff like this before. i hope he makes it. >> he's not going to make it. he's forgotten about the horn now and is just clutching on for dear life. the car goes sliding backward. >> no! i hope he makes it all the way around so he can go back where he came from.

>> hold it, control it! yes! >> like a j-turn. >> it could have been bad, but it wasn't for once. this is such a sweet video of a home birth of a brand new baby boy. now, family is gathered there. the video is actually being recorded by grandpa. >> we already got the shot and the ointment. >> there's a woman holding the baby, could be a midwife, maybe a nurse. we'll call her a nurse. people there with their phones taking pictures. this new bundle of joy is here, he's precious, he's perfect. you have to pick a name now. >> i think maybe they will go with felix. >> just as the nurse says he has a 12 3/4 head she spots something that doesn't fit the picture. >> 12 3/4 head. wait. oh my god. no way. >> it's a girl? >> because this isn't a boy at

all. the ultrasound technician made a small technician. when the baby was born it was a girl. how they missed it this whole time i have no idea. >> so felicia then? instead of felix? and grandma, looks so much more like you than grandpa. >> i think they might go with olivia, that's the name they seem to be very excited about, you hear them cheering celebrating the fact they may be able to use the name olivia now. >> before they celebrated i would double check. just double double check and make sure. >> it is an olivia! >> oh my god. oh my god! >> oh my god! >> that's got to be one heck of a facebook kroeconnection. it's a boy. oops. >> people are taking very different types of pictures because they can't wait to share the unexpected surprise. >> like the gender reveal you enjoyed.

him but quickly is able to get that crane up and start trying to help people. the crazy thing is, by the time emergency services turned up, they'd already rescued four passengers and the driver. >> amazing. >> another video to show you the situation where the bus was lying on its side in the river. fortunately it wasn't too deep but people were able to be rescued, only minor injuries. four people from the bus and the driver of the suv ended up being treated in hospital just for minor injuries. >> you know what else? they don't have to pay for a tow truck. >> it's already there. >> look at the bonuses all over there. >> people online hailing this guy as a hero, acting quickly. >> oli, you are a parent, and i think maybe by the end of this video, you're going to agree with cat and nat. >> the bachelor and bachelorette is exactly like mother hood. >> he with are the bachelor/bachelorette. >> and the children are the contestants. >> they detail how there are similarities, like -- >> when you as a mom or a

bachelor/bachelorette get alone time usually someone storming into your room, they find you, and they're trying to get in bed with you naked. because if you're alone, someone will find you. they'll hunt you down. >> but this is like the bachelorette, you get to reject them all at the end. don't keep any of them. just send them off on their way. >> someone is always neglected or complaining that they're neglected. in the house. >> oh, you forgot about me. you like them better. >> yeah, you don't even know me. you don't know what i'm thinking. you have no idea what i'm talking about! >> and then there's the dad link. >> they always want to get the other ones in trouble and they think telling on someone else is going to make them look better. those idiots, they look worse. >> they all look worse. >> we broke our kids earlier. you guys are a unit. don't tattle on each other. you should be a gangsta. >> you so smart. >> if you tattle on him, then you're both getting in trouble.
