it is a brand new week and that means brand new videos, "right this minute." a stunned truck driver spots a runaway baby stroller. what the hero driver did as the stroller headed for the perfect storm of danger. this dust cloud in the distance isn't a tornado, it's a race car driver about to become a dust ball. >> whoa! >> right in front of the camera too! want a mama squirrel and her babies out of your house but don't want to throw them in the street? this may be the answer.
9:01 am
>> that's called a reunion box. >> see how the contraption works to keep the squirrel's family together. and the bar is not the best place for an old cheerleading stunt. >> oh! >> so who's at fault? her knees buckle, but i don't think he was the most stable base. a garbage man in seattle got to play superhero for a day because of some quick thinking. this is jeff blackburn in his rig driving his truck and he notices a runaway baby stroller with the mom running behind it. >> oh sc! >> now, this thing is headed down the hill. what does jeff do? he starts speeding up and honking his horn because the stroller is approaching another intersection. luckily jeff did that, because a fedex truck was coming up to that intersection and it stopped because of jeff's honking. >> oh, wow! >> eventually, jeff takes his
9:02 am
truck down to the bottom of the hill, slams on the brakes, jumps out. he and another woman chase this thing down just as the stroller comes up over the curb onto the sidewalk. >> and it narrowly misses that stop sign. >> just missed the stop sign. that person you see there is the mom who was trying to chase after the stroller, of course. >> and was probably terrified. >> jeff said that the woman was so freaked out she almost didn't even say anything. jeff said the baby, when they looked in the stroller, smiling. the baby had no idea what was going on. the mom had a stroller turned in a way that wouldn't roll down the hill but then she went to talk to a group of friends. the stroller turned on its own and took off. >> bet she's never run a faster 50 in her life. >> quick thinking from the driver, because he could have tried to jump out and chase this thing but you're not going to run this down, it's on wheels. he thought i'm going to speed
9:03 am
up, honk my horn, cause a commotion, hopefully cause other drivers to stop, which is what happened. >> and he saved the baby's life. this dust cloud in the distance isn't a tornado, it's finish rally driver and his co-driver. they are out practicing in italy for the world rally championship and they're flying. watch what happens next. >> whoa! >> right in front of the camera too! >> he went off the side of the road a little bit and must have caught rocks, something. that sent the car spinning. look at the cameraman following the car and look at how far they have to go to get to the wreckage. the car rolled and rolled and rolled and rolled into this field, down a hill. there's the wreckage. now wait. what do you think happens in the end? >> you know what, he's probably
9:04 am
protected in there. he probably opens the door and climbs out. >> bingo. you see the door open. you don't see them get out, but they were taken to the hospital. the driver tweeted to his fans after he got out of the hospital to let his fans know no problem, i'm all good. >> what about the car, does it get a second chance or is it toast? >> the car is heavily damaged but it's a race car. they'll rebuild it. that photographer was totally like in the ultimate place. like he picked the perfect place to be. that's a good point, they also say let this be a warning to spectators who like to stand along the rally route. get too close and you're not standing in an approved area for spectators, things can happen. these cars frequently go off the road. something you don't want to see at the top of a bridge, a livestock truck crash and then turn over. in this video we get from itn, you can see that truck on top of
9:05 am
that bridge. it's rolled over and look what's in it. >> holy sheep! >> holy sheep is right. they're strewn all over the roadway. many were killed and injured, but some survived. some people witnessed the whole thing. >> we looked and we could see the truck flip on its side. the next minute -- >> some sleep fell on cars. some cars tried to get out of the way and crashed. once rescue crews got there, they said it was a surprise no humans were hurt or seriously injured. >> it's not like a sheep is a nimble animal that can save itself after a fall like that. >> some sheep did survive and were standing on all fours. >> imagine if you're just driving along. how strange of a scene that is. you're driving under a bridge and all of a sudden it's literally raining sheep all over your car. >> this is really heart-breaking
9:06 am
because they didn't stand a chance. there was no way for them to protect themselves. if you see something like this in nebraska, you've got some issues about to happen. >> dust storms i've never experienced, but they seem like they are quite the experience. you probably experienced them, right? >> living in phoenix, there's big ones that roll through, they're called haboobs. they just throw up a huge roll of dust that rolls through everything. >> check out this video that this guy caught in arizona. this dust storm happened a while back but this video was just posted online. >> you see it all the way up there and it goes all the way, way, way back. >> look at the cloud in the middle of the screen. that thing i huge! >> you see it comi fr long distance and it catches up with you. you can see it just kind of rolling over things and swallowing up neighborhoods and
9:07 am
trees. they're usually not violent or destructive. >> here we see it's obviously during the day and all of us -- when they're in the middle of the dust storm it gets completely dark. >> like midnight. >> yeah. >> look at that. >> that is like armageddon right there. >> what does your car look like after you drive through something like that? >> dusty. >> go straight to the car wash. >> and if you're caught outside, go indoors. >> that is so cool. >> holy cow. i have never, ever, ever seen anything like this. >> if you didn't know it was a dust storm, you'd think the world was ending. it looks scary. >> if i saw it, i'd be like i'm armageddon outta here. in a video that's got gayle all crazy vocal -- ♪

>> oh! oh. oh, dear lord. >> i think she was supposed to land on his hands and he was supposed to hold her up. >> we've seen a lot of cheerleaders do that. what do you blame here, who's at fault? him or her? >> her knees buckle. >> but i don't think he was the most stable base. >> do you know how long they had been in the bar and how many drinks they consumed before they say, hey, let's try to stunt again. >> i love the collective ooh. >> and some dude says awesome. >> oh! [ bleep ]. >> i don't know. hopefully whoever was at fault buys the other a beer or a shot or maybe they can just buy each other beers, because i think they both messed up. oh! when you're at a party and things are not as exciting and they're kind of boring, just sprinkle in a little mexican --
