9:02 am
but watch how this thing ends. they tussle around on the ground. roll around on the ground, the impala trying to get this thing off him. oh, takes off, and breaks up. a rare happy ending. a lot of times when we see these videos we have to say what you are about to see is graphic. the leopard usually takes the impala here, they take off in opposite directions. >> i think the leopard expended all its energy. >> the impala had a face full of claw and teeth. could not feel good. but that's one you tell your buddies about, go run back to your herd. you should see what i just did, bro. go back to the heard, ladies, who just kicked leopard ass! and the leopard, on the down low. nobody saw that. >> this is not a stuntman. he is a dry cleaner. call them yet?y to be alive.

9:05 am
apparently also caused some injuries, but no fatalities. >> apparently in this part italy, tornadoes like this are very rare. >> i'm one of the people driving we saw in the first video, and i see that thing out my windshield, i'm just putting the pedal to the medal the other direction. >> another video that shows the funnel really close to a building. >> that is scary, looks like some sort of portal. >> i'm always glad somebody gets video of this, but i don't know if i would be brave enough to shooting the video. do you have a cellar here? getting caught in slow-moving traffic is frustrating for everybody. we all know that. a rider in atlanta, georgia, with a helmet cam, and you see him staying to the very left side of his lane. this guy is known as chase. likes to stay on the left. anybody on the right starts to move over, he's got room to protect himself, but a taxi cab sees his position and thinks

it's an opportunity to pass him. in the same lane. >> hey! no! no, you're a [ bleep ] hole! >> the cabbie was riding right on his tail, back off. if i hit my brakes, are you going to plow right into me. that's where the cabbie decides i will try and pass this guy. chase speeds up and says no. >> that's where the problem rises. i get he's trying to send the message. that heightens the danger level here. >> tough call. as a rider, you have to try and give people a signal. you can't talk to them, you have a helmet on, you don't want somebody riding on your butt like that. we reached out to the yellow cab company, and the operations manager said this driver will be spoken to. didn't discuss if there were prior incidents involving this driver. >> you can also see the cab driver signaling with his hand, almost as if saying, sorry,
9:07 am
dude, get out of my way. >> i understand the frustrations on the road, but keep in mind this guy is out there, not protected by a seat belt and a roll cage. frustrated or not, don't put someone's life in danger like that. >> no, no, no! >> his must attaache moves went viral. they thought this was cool. how they turned to indy go go to give him a big surprise. and a girl decides to go free diving with a great white shark. as soon as she got in the water, got closer than she expected. >> ay, ay, ay! >> see how [ female announcer ] the one for all.
