pledge live at the assembly we had to launch the campaign. >> jacques, what was in your message to lady gaga. >> i wrote to her, explaining the whole assembly. what i was planning on doing and how a video from her would make it so much more effective. >> are you yourself a victim of bullying? >> i was bullied, don't try to put a school musical about being gay or don't be such a [ bleep ]. and it would make things better for other students. >> any success story for people that you've touched or affected. >> a student on the day of the assembly came up to me and told me that somebody who had been bullying her since september came up and apologized. that just one person who was a bully had been impacted. >> if could you change the life of just one person, that's huge. and clearly, they have. >> good-bye. new developments from a video that we first saw over the summer.

metro wasn't even running in august. >> i think this guy just laid down on the tracks to listen for the next oncoming train and then all of a sudden he was like, oh, here it is. >> i think he was just trying to come up with a cool viral video and he did it. >> i think he was trying to meet god. >> one-way ticket to meet god. we obviously have our own opinions about what this guy is doing. but we want to know what you think. put your caption under this video. what do you think he's up to? go to our facebook page, facebook.com/"right this minute." a kid on a car trip gets the scare of his life when strong winds flip a semi. >> holy [ bleep ] slam. it's a miniature wonderland with some life-like surprises that visitors aren't expecting. >> i couldn't believe it! and a show of force as lawmen go to evict a 104-year-old lady. but what happened next, nobody saw coming.

because i know i'm going to get lucky. >> going to asos, you walk into class the first day and it's a bunch of dudes and there's one female teacher. >> what you see here is actually the swedish headmaster of the asos austrian international school of sex. this is eva maria thompson. the courses include sexual techniques, advanced intercourse. >> advanced intercourse? what does that include, like swings and stuff? what is advanced intercourse? >> and can you imagine if you met a girl at a club and she had her, i graduated from the school, you would know she's really good. >> yeah. santa's reindeer are getting ready for the big track. but be careful, they're up in canada standing on the road. watch out in you're in canada. the canada here in this video are licking the salt off the road after a recent snow. when they come through, they plow the snow off. and throw a little salt down.

time getting off the ground. but my guess is you could tow something with them. >> that's why my mom has a scar on her chin to this day? she thought a salt lick was ice cream, she took a lick of it. a cow went to take a lick at the same time and now my mom has a scar on her jaw. recent floods in thailand have left a lot of elephants without homes, a lot of them have been evacuated very stressful situation for these elephants. fortunately, there are people like paul who is helping the situation in his own way. ♪ ♪ >> this is paul barton, he's from the uk, but now is living in thailand. and he's playing piano for these elephants. he's playing slow movement from beethoven's "pathetique" sonata.
