9:01 am
anything like that. london is gripped by olympic mania. except for here. meet the guy who says my breakfast is utterly ruined. and the story behind the big crate holding the big old bundle of cute. so what's inside? >> steven! he's a big ole bundle of cute. videos like this make me think firefighters should get paid super athlete salaries. this is helmet cam from a firefighter who just arrived to a fire in atlanta at a two-story wood frame apartment building. one of the apartments on the second floor is on fire. from the outside you can see this is a huge fire. the flames are fierce, but it gets even more dangerous when the firefighters go inside the building. >> it's just crazy to see it
9:02 am
from the outside and go, wow, look at that. that's terrifying. and then they go inside. they go where the fire is. >> at one point the video goes completely dark, but you can also hear the firefighters communicating with each other. >> you really have got to be on the same page with your crew mates in a situation like this because one false communication, you never know what could happen. >> this is about a 15-minute video and a lot of it comes in and out of darkness, but toward the end you do get an idea that they did manage to put out the fire. you do see this fireman walking out of this fire, but look at the camera. there's soot on that right-hand side. >> and you can see how dirty and charred his helmet is too. it's so cool. i love these firefighter helmet cam shots. this is fascinating stuff. >> and it looks nothing like the goofy movies that come out of hollywood. driving in russia, as we learned on the show, is no joke.
9:03 am
here's a perfect example. this is the moscow route. as you can see it's a two-lane highway and when passing happens on a two-lane highway and you've got big trucks, something bad is bound to happen. >> i'm nervous. >> yeah. >> oh, no. >> is somebody going to jump out of these doors? >> no, nobody is going to jump out of the doors. there's an oncoming car. we don't really know what happens before the accident, but we know it's an oncoming car. >> oh! >> that guy wasn't even doing anything wrong. >> he was the innocent drive-stander. >> yes, he was the innocent drive-stander. >> any time you have high vehicles like that, a truck, a bus, where you can't see what's up ahead, you've got to be extra careful. >> i'm beginning to think it might be safer to get your pilot's license and fly around in a little paraglider and just avoid the roads completely. >> they seem to be okay because they were able to get out.
9:04 am
>> i want to work at the russian dmv, because i feel like that's got to be like the easiest job ever. they come in, they're like all right, you have a pulse. here's your license. a mother is claiming excessive force during the arrest of her son in stamford, connecticut. you guys be the judge on this one. let's pick this up from a surveillance video from a china express. this video is from abc 7 in new york. we're seeing off-duty police officer james comstock talking to employees about a robbery that went down in the parking lot of this place, up related incident. in walks 20-year-old justin medina. he was issued a warrant for his arrest early in july for an incident where he allegedly interfered with police. that's a misdemeanor. comstock recognizes medina because their families are friends. he finds 12 bags of marijuana on
9:05 am
medina as well as $200 this day inside the china express. so you see now cell phone video of the attempted arrest. keep in mind, officer james comstock off duty, which means no handcuffs, no radio. >> just a gun. >> just a gun. >> get on the ground now! >> get on the ground. don't worry. >> the other person you see is machi mitchell, medina's friend. you see the officer telling him to get on the ground as well. give me the phone. >> police are saying that medina was trying to flee and resisting arrest. >> it's just a constant wrestling match. he was trying to get out, trying to flee. >> now, medina's attorney thinks otherwise. >> he could have said to that kid, look, i know your mother,
9:06 am
there's a warrant out for you, turn yourself in. >> at times you see medina with his arms up. you don't see him flee in the video and that's what's got medina's mother so upset. >> i'm not so sure what's brutal about this? the only weapon he's got is the gun. >> but if that's all he has, he has to use whatever he can to control the situation. he's not just trying to control medina, he's trying to control he other g expects a cop to say, look, i know your mother, just turn yourself in. >> regardless, medina was charged with resisting arrest and marijuana possession. the officer's arrest will go through review. inside this big metal crate is just a big ole bundle of cute. what's inside? me! >> steven! he's a big ole bundle of cute. >> six bears. the bears are being released by the wildlife center of virginia
9:07 am
and the department of game and fisheries. you see these guys come bumbling out. they're still a little groggy from the sedatives that they were given for the trip back to the wild. that one like went up the hill and did like a tumble. >> this is so darn cute. they're babies. >> six bears total, including two cubs. the bears were found on the side of a highway in the chesapeake bay area and kind of emaciated and hungry, so people at the wildlife center took the bear in, rehabbed them, got them fed, brought them back to health and brought them to an area where there's a bit more habitat than where they were found. of course bear populations are going up across the country and habitats are increasing, so it's getting more and more common to see the bear around people. >> it looks like the two littlest ones shot out like a cannon. the other ones were like what's going on? >> they're kids, they're babies. >> after the release, you hear one cub is sort of separated
9:08 am
from the group. listen. >> is he crying? >> you hear a little cub crying. he's like where'd everybody go? >> everyone was here two seconds ago. >> and he does get back together with everybody. >> they're bears, they'll make it. they know how to do it. gear up and rev your engines, because we're taking a motorcycle ride through the streets of san francisco. >> i've never seen anybody go down lombard street that fast. >> stick around to see the stunts next. and this guy is just snooping around this pet store and then he snatches a pup for himself. if you think that's bad, just wait till you see how the suspect snuck it out. >> oh, no!

[ laughing ] lombard street in san francisco is that tiny, narrow, super windy ribbon of road that goes through a neighborhood. it's famous. and if you drive on it, be prepared to go very slow, unless you're gm racer from germany. he went out to promote the moto gp race this weekend. that is the pinnacle of motorcycle racing. these guys are the fastest of the fast. >> i've never seen anybody go down lombard street that fast. >> you know, i'm no motorcycle expert here, but i've got to guess that a brick surface is a little more slippery than regular pavement. >> he probably didn't take it as fast as he could have because i was curious about the brick surface and how smooth or grippy
9:14 am
it was. lombard street is famous for the corkscrew, which is sort of a downward spiral turn. so he got a little practice before the race. >> it looks so pretty with the flowers and the people watching. i can tell it was a perfect day in san francisco. >> it's typically a perfect day in the bay area. a strange engine repair is going on here. >> what the heck? >> oh! >> see what's under the hood, next time on "right this minute." this guy is fishing for shark on a paddle board, and he's stuffing panty hose full of chopped up fish as a bait ball. it's called off the hook. see all about it, next. and here's a video that could leave some drivers asking -- >> was that really a camel that i just passed?

9:18 am
this is apparently in london. dut is out on his little patio. this guy wants nothing to do with it. he said my breakfast was utterly ruined. can i tell you what i think is more annoying than the loud parade going on behind him? this. the shoveling of the food into the mouth. >> his mom never taught him how to eat the right way. >> i think this is completely staged. he should have just stayed inside and just eaten his food inside instead of going out on the patio and saying i don't care about it. >> i think this is his way to sort of thumb his way at the corporate sponsors. he mentioned coca-cola, he mentioned samsung, lloyds tsb and other sponsors. he said i don't care about you guys, i don't care about this parade. >> i bet after this video was
9:19 am
over, he put down his bowl and went out to party with the rest of the crowd. >> my breakfast is utterly ruined. a lovely sunday drive. >> the there's a brand new tv show and it's completely off the hook. it's a fishing show hosted by eric young. eric young is a self-proclaimed extreme adrenaline junkie. >> there's a shark on this line and i am on what paddle board fishermen refer to as the sleigh ride. >> he's got a big personality because he's a pro wrestler as well. the whole idea of this show is to go out and fish for the big one. but do it in the most extreme way. so he talks to different people
9:20 am
in their fishing neighborhood. >> you're a crazy bunch. >> all right, tom, this is awesome. >> the show has unique techniques like stuffing panty hose full of chopped up fish as a bait ball. >> it seems a little brave that he wouldgo out there on a paddle board to fish for a shark. >> what if he catches it? the shark back or catch and release? >> let's find out. eric young is joining us via skype. once you catch the shark while you're on the paddle board, what do you d then? >> it's a show for animal planet so it's catch and release. the only thing we do keep we eat on the show. i don't want to hurt anything unnecessarily so it's more about the experience of catching a shark. >> what kind of shark are you talking about? you're not looking for great whites? >> no, we were looking for bull sharks. actually the movie "jaws" is based on a bull shark. luckily for me we didn't find any of those we did find a six-foot lemon shark. >> what's the craziest
9:21 am
predicament we'll see on the show. >> the paddle board one was crazy. the pro guy that i was with, we did the thing where we paddled to the deep water because that's where the big sharks hang out. if you want a big shark, you need to have big water. so we paddled out there, we ought it and at the end of the day he was wow, that was crazy, i've never done that. i said what do you mean? he said i never would have paddled to the deep water to catch a shark because it's super dangerous. >> what's the craziest fishing technique you've learned from one of the locals? >> the most interesting was ladies panty hose. the guy says as long as panty hose have been around, fishermen have been doing it. sharks love women's panty hose. >> my last name is bass, her last name is troutman. should we be worried? >> you're lucky this is skype. >> it will kick off july 30th at 9:00 p.m., eastern and pacific. that is so bright it looks

9:25 am
this. the dog just wouldn't stop. this is how the dog wanted to play. as the dog is getting twirled around, look how his legs are frozen. >> it's almost like he's relaxing. this is medication for him. >> i've got to think you'd get dizzy after this. >> think of all the dogs that chase their tails. >> you know what would be fun, swing them around and just launch him into the water. >> he'd probably like that. when the owner stops, the dog is like ok, let's keep going. >> that's like a lab with a tennis ball. i'm not tired. >> you can never do that with your cat. >> wrong, i put the cat in the pillow case and swung her around. i've done it, she loves it. >> the aspca will be calling shortly. >> the same thing, put it down and the cat goes back in the pillow case. >> how did you find that she likes that. >> we have lots of fun times. don't you hate it when some drivers buffalo their way into your lane or something? well, this one he camel eed his

9:27 am
were overrated, freeways are a lot more faster and efficient, so why not? he's getting smarter. camels are getting smarter. >> only in dubai. late last week new york was pummeled by a powerful storm. well, a tree fell on a high-tension power line an happened. >> never good. >> that is so bright, it looks like the sunset through the trees, doesn't it? >> yeah, it does. >> no, that's the tree falling on the power lines, but wait till you see the explosion. >> i don't know, i wouldn't be anywhere near this thing. i wouldn't be out there with a camera, no way. >> i kept thinking maybe whoever was shooting this should put the camera down, walk to the back of the house and come back when it's over. of course you don't want to miss it, but you don't want to be close either. >> where there's smoke, there's fire, gayle. >> listen tom this. >> whoa! whoa!
9:28 am
>> that dog is like what the heck was that? >> can you believe it? it wasn't like one boom, it was multiple bottoms. everything else went black. >> i don't think i've ever seen anything like that. that was awesome. it made me jump. >> it's like a transformer just landed in the backyard and started zapping things. >> that was unbelievably loud. >> it was like 50 different colors too. green, blue, orange. that was nuts. >> i wonder what that felt like if you were that person standing with the camera. did the hair stand up on your arm or something? >> that was crazy. >> i've never seen anything explode like that. >> that's it for us here at "right this minute." we'll see you next time. release me, momigus!
