tears. >> saying, we got to call our boys, you know? >> this happened on october 25th and 26th. here's another video that a passenger posted from disney fantasy. look at this cell phone footage. you can see the water swashing too and fro with the motion of the ship. did they say they warned them, the storm is coming, put on your life vests and go to your rooms? the passengers did tell the passengers stay in your cabin. >> yes, stay in your cabins. >> go to your room, but even in your room you don't necessarily feel safe. we did reach out to disney about this incident, and they said the safety of our guests and crew is the high. given this was a difficult evening for our guests, we have provided them with a choice of a future cruise discount or discount at a walt disney world

resort. this is the really short dash cam video from a police cruiser in wisconsin. he turns a corner on a very dark street. ended up causing a major power outage. and the street lights aren't working. look at what happens here. >> whoa! what the heck was that guy, just dangling in the middle of the road? >> out of nowhere, a pedestrian walking on the road was struck by the cruiser. he was dressed in all black in the middle of a power outage. >> wasn't even moving fast, just slowly moping around. >> that could probably be because the pedestrian was an 89-year-old man and there's very little time from the point where we actually see him in the video to the point of impact. unfortunately, as of yesterday, this man is in critical condition, so we don't know what he was doing on the road, but

after an initial investigation, the sheriff's department determined that this officer was going 24 miles an hour in a 25 mile an hour zone. this officer was on the way to the humane society to drop off a dog. it was an unfortunate accident. the officer was immediately tested for drugs or alcohol and he passed that test. no charges are going to be filed. ryanair is a low-budget european airline, and some spanish travelers are calling for people to boycott it because of this incident caught on video. this woman talking was getting on the plane and ryanair said she had to get off. they called police to remove her from the plane because they said she had excess baggage. what do you see in her hand? >> jacket, book, one small bag?

>> she also has a control. she said it won't fit in my suitcase. they called police to remove her from the plane. see the officer stepping out. >> there they go, dragging her out of there. >> really charged her full price for that? >> i don't know why it couldn't fit in the overhead bin, but if you want to be technical, she had the control and the bag. other passengers said they'll put her stuff in our bag. the woman had become disruptive and that's why the authorities were called in. gate agents also said she didn't show her i.d. there you go. if she was disruptive, she becomes a security risk. the people on the plane, when they hauled her out, they had something to say about it. they were ashamed by how the police hauled her off the plane. if she handled it better at the

gate, wouldn't have happened. ryanair has allowed spaniards upset about this. it's friday, everybody, we have an ipad to give away. >> you have to be 18 or older to enter and have friday's buzz word. >> we'll be giviing you friday' buzz word, that's when you go to our facebook page. >> enter the buzz word. >> friday's buzz word in just a 18 ars or older to enter for your chance to win an ipad3. we had a close call caught on camera. let's go to skar scarsdale, new york. watch the car ahead of you and watch the big tree. this is, of course, during superstorm sandy dropping buckets on the area. you see that tree fall and almost land right on top of that car. this is back on october 29th.
