h everybody. i'm beth troutman. we know you love great videos and we've got the best ones for you, "right this minute." masked men kidnap a driver out with his fiance. e. they gag him. they tie him up. the terrifying story that comes with a twist that is whack. >> can you scoop him under his feet? >> two kayakers try to coax a raccoon to safety. >> and that didn't work. >> what finally did the trick and made him a new friend. excited fans line up along a dragway. >> people are really, really

close to the race here. >> too close when things go horribly wrong. plus, from the bronx swallows something he shouldn't. and two dudes audition for a box boxer job. what had them screaming like little girls. i have some video footage that is absolutely going to terrify you guys. a 33-year-old marketing consultant went on a countryside drive in the uk with his fiancee claire hart. this is what happened. >> get out of the car. get out of the [ bleep ] car. >> masked men block their path on the road. they start lighting stun grenades, smoke bombs. they are armed with bats. they open the door and drag ali out of the car. now you actually see them leave

the fiancee behind. >> is she laughing? >> they gag him. they tie him up and force him to wear a jump suit. according to reporting, they kept ali in this van once they got him 100 miles from where they dragged him from his car. they forced him to wear, according to reports, a thong-style man's bikini. now he did survive this incident and get away from this incident. according to reports he then was struck down with a stress-related illness. >> well, no kidding. you've just been bound, gagged, driven 100 miles. that's a really long ride by people you don't even know. >> okay, wait. >> the problem with all of this is he did know these 16 people. this was a prank that his friends and his fiancee pulled on him. >> she was laughing. >> the stress-related ill sentence quite serious and quite painful. he came down with shingles.

once they got him in the mankini, he then had to bike ten miles to the actual bachelor party. >> i hope after all this they had like some cool stuff. big, huge accident during a drag racing event in mexico. you see here a car and a truck going down the street here, high speed. they get out of control and then run right into a big group of spectators. lots of people injured. reports say 19 people injured. some with broken legs. one of the people injured, a pregnant woman. you can see a lot of the other spectators rushing to aid these people after this. we've got it from another angle.

right up into that crowd. you noticed a few people are really, really close to the race here. they are right there. sometimes even on the road. >> there's no barrier whatsoever. no kind prove tecs of protectio. >> the dver is not in kw if yoe blame on the drivers like this. it seems like a very loosely controlled event. no real safety standards, no barricades. i feel like it's -- you are putting yourself at your own risk by going to this event. either racing or spectating. >> wasn't even an attempt for safety. not even yellow tape. nothing. there was nothing there. living in oakland's jack london square can be pretty cool especially if you have a cool loft. check out this video that paul coroda captured after setting up some surveillance cameras.

this is a couple of men breaking into that car. we do see several angles of these two men. but they are so brazen about what they are doing. he goes as far as to actually jumping in. >> look at the well-lit parking lot. it's not like they're hidden in shadows. there's a bright street light just above them. >> paul has also captured other videos of other crimes. he captured a hit and run, a bike theft from earlier this year. he's really trying to capture the crime that is happening right outside of his building. and to tell us more about what's happening, we have paul via skype right this minute. >> why did you set up the cameras? is it because you saw a series of crimes happening? >> yes, we've been having a series of break-ins in cars and so we set up these cameras and have been capturing a lot of video of the suspects in action. >> have you filed reports with the police department? >> why online only. they won't come out to take a report. the oakland pd is overloaded.

we even have license plates but we're not getting traction. i thought i'll start a youtube channel. >> why can't the police take action? what have they told you? >> sorry. just report it online. we won't come out. >> how does that make you feel? >> frustrated. hopefully someone can identify these guys. >> are you hoping that social media helps spread the word and spread the videos? >> absolutely. i'm almost counting on that at this time. >> do you think these guys know that the police didn't isn't being proactive about investigating these crimes and that's why they keep coming back? >> i think criminals do know that. it's kind of sad that they can just do these crimes and not fear anything. we're revealing them and that, in turn, will prevent future crime. >> we reached out to the oakland police department but have no comment yet. two friends went kayaking and executed an animal rescue. what you see here is a young raccoon. they dubbed it bandit.

they worked for a half an hour trying to get this raccoon, which is stranded on a rock area near some water, to climb on the paddle. and that didn't work. but eventually they were able to coax it to climb on the boat itself. >> how do they know he wasn't just out there relaxing on the water's edge. >> they could see it was injured. >> he's got an injured foot and a bad tail. looks like maybe a big eagle got him earlier. >> the raccoon finally climbs on the kayak and then the kayak is like, i should explore. let me see this person who has rescued me. and this person, eric is like, hey, don't get too close. >> no, don't come up on me. >> seems like a friendly little raccoon. >> bandit is getting close but doesn't want to spend the night in the e.r. getting rabies shots. they are able to get closer to land and get him on land. eric gets out trying to help the little guy out and they left him

alone because you really aren't supposed to mess with nature. >> good-bye, bandit. a parachutist about jump from a chopper is terrified when he spots his chute. >> getting tangled and wrapped around that. >> see the rush to untangle before the chute inflates and takes the whole crew down. and this guy is real excited to try out google glass, but -- ,

i've never written a fan letter before, but you've done the impossible. you made gluten-free cereals in a whole bunch of yummy flavors. cinnamon chex and honey nut chex are two of our favorites. when my husband found the chocolate one, we were in cereal heaven. the only problem is, with so many great flavors you're making it very hard to choose. your fans, the mcgregor family. 'cause we love chex.

you are looking at video of five buddies in a helicopter about to parachute out over the uk. they are about 5,000 feet up in the air but something is about to go terribly wrong. >> bad place for things to go wrong. >> yeah. this fella is heading out on to the skids of the helicopter. but if you look really closely, you'll notice that his pilot chute is out behind him. >> oh, no. >> is it wrapped around the

skid? >> yes, it's getting tangled and wrapped around that skid. you see it justeep going and going and his che is he's saying cut it. cut it. and what he does is use the cutaway system to release that parachute. no! >> he cuts away from his main chute. his reserve chute deploys. he lands safely. now the guys inside the helicopter are still having to deal with the fact this is tangled around the skids of the helicopter moving toward the back rotor. they spring into action. >> [ bleep ]. >> you hear the one guy screaming. tell the pilot! he's trying to pull this parachute and untangle. at one point he even gets out on to the skids. he's standing there trying to pull this in. they couldn't actually cut the strings because that parachute

might have flown back and gotten tangled in the rotor blade. the entire time you are watching them struggle with this parachute. and luckily everything turned out fine. everyone landed safely, including the person who had to cut away from his main chute and use the reserve chute. everyone is okay. >> that's life or death right there. from the simple tangled chute, life or death. mark of brooklyn, new york, just got his google glass. he's excited. he starts recording when he's walking across the street. but he has a warning. pay attention to where you're going when wearing your google glass. you can see him looking around and get kind of a view. he sees this car with the lights on. i'm going to go walk in front of this car. he's parked. the lights are on. thinks he can beat it. he can't. >> walked right into a moving car. >> he said that he tried to run past when he saw it move. he thought he could leap in

front of it. as you can see it didn't work for him. >> [ bleep ]. >> it looks fake to me. the guy -- it looks like he walks up to the side of the car and hits the car with his hand. you hear that? >> it does sound like he hits it with his hand, but he claims the car hit him because he wasn't paying attention where he's going. >> it wasn't even going like 5 miles per hour. >> [ bleep ]. >> you hit me, man. >> i think he was just trying to make a google glass video. and this is his buddy who is driving at 2 miles per hour behind him. this should be very entertaining, to say the least. >> that's chuck from the bronx saying you know he's about to eat something really weird. >> this is scorpion infused vodka. >> that's not so bad. i mean, i've had tequila infused with worms. >> he's not just going to drink vodka. he's going to eat the scorpion as well.

>> you ready? let's do this. >> takes the vodka down. no problem there. >> i love he's got a knife and fork out on the table just in case. >> you never know. >> digs out the scorpion. >> check this little guy out. >> takes a bite. he's not eating it in pieces which i feel is probably a worse idea. he should have eaten the scorpion and then chased it with vodka. >> duh. >> down the hatch it goes. chews it up. >> you aren't supposed to eat the stinger, are you? >> is it still producing venom? >> we're all wondering that right away. chuck didn't wonder that until it was already chewed up and swallowed. >> i hope he didn't have any venom in there. i doubt it. i think they get rid of that stuff or kills it at least. >> i wonder if chuck ever questions his career path. of all the things you could have

chosen to do on the internet. >> career path? using that term loosely there. >> man, that's was a rush. a couple takes the leap of a lifetime. but -- >> you saw chris lose the ring and it just flew right out of the plane. >> they jump anyway. >> chase it. >> see if they catch up. and it's the first time in the water. see if it's sink or swim for this pup. >> get it, get it.

we're about to learn a lesson in perseverance. this is collie, a gorgeous

little french bulldog. she and her other doggy friend just had a little dip in the water. the first dog is a bigger dog. seems to be a pro. and then collie, she's like, i'm going to try this. and she falls in. she swims a little bit but then is back out of the water. that wasn't so bad. so before you know it -- she jumps right in. >> collie. go get her. collie, come on. >> but she gets tired so the guy shooting this video is mike viera. he tells his fiancee to jump in the water. >> get her. get her. >> she does. very quickly saves collie. guides her back to the shore. >> that little face sticking out of the water. breaks my heart. >> this is so hard to watch because it's so cute and sad all at once. >> she is totally fine. she makes it back out on to shore and you are thinking,

she's freaked out. she'll never go back in the water. you're wrong! >> oh, man. >> she's drowning. >> she's doing the doggy paddle like vertical. you can't really doggy paddle up. >> there is a casualty in the video, though. >> oh, [ bleep ]. >> you had your phone on you? >> but the dog is safe. and that's all that matters. >> looks like you're getting a new phone. >> i totally forgot. i panicked. i had to go get her. the couple that plays together, stays together. so chris and movelle are headed on a nice sky dive. >> watch what's about to happen. >> will you marry me? >> right before they jump, opens up the box and says, will you marry me? >> yes! yes! >> that's risky, though. the ring is right there. what if you drop it? what it f it comes out of the

box. >> now your head is filled with love and marriage proposals. >> well, watch. >> oh! >> they jump anyway. >> they have to now. chase it. >> so now they are hand in hand just falling quickly through the skies over this gorgeous landscape. and once they land -- >> i can't believe you dropped the ring. >> does it matter? >> it doesn't matter. >> does it matter? gives him a big kiss. >> but then they start walking -- >> no way. tell me that's not for real. no way. no way! oh, my god! >> she starts crying saying no way, no way. chris has surprised her. her sisters and her best friend are waiting there for her. and --

>> yes! yes! >> they had the real ring. >> they were holding the ring for chris. and now he makes it official. >> it's so beautiful. i love you. a woman encounters an eel. a wolf eel. there's something not afraid of a wolf eel. and it's not what you'd expect.

there's nothing routine in a police officer's day. watch these manchester police in the united kingdom try and pull over what they believe to be a stolen vehicle in front of them. car stops. guys jump out and attack the police car. the guy that you saw approached the car. had a paving slab. essentially a chunk of concrete that he threw at the windshield of the police car. other guys are aacng t damaging the car. the guys still have their heads covered. jump back in the car and take off. >> that dude jumps out with that hood over his head. he looks like some creepy guy from a movie. >> they believe this car to be stolen. was an audi. later they found that car abandoned but did not find the

guys responsible for that. thankfully, the police were not hurt but they're still looking for those guys. >> you wonder what were those guys getting away from? >> they were doing everything they could noto not get caught and to secure their identity. let's go under the sea for what looks like an interesting game of tag. this is filmed by diver jackie patet off the la jolla shores. she's getting some awesome video of this octopus. there were a bunch of them down there. then she felt like something was staring at her from the left. not every day you get to see a wolf in the water. >> what? >> but she looks to her left. that's a wolf eel. >> oh! >> a type of eel. it snuck up on her. she starts to get close to get some images of the wolf eel. but there's something that's not afraid of the wolf eel and it's not what you'd expect. >> is that a duck? >> that, my friends is a type of

water fowl down there going after the wolf eel. i think it's trying to eat the eel. he's taking a couple of nabs at the eel, chasing this thing around. goes around this rock and now the eel kind of takes off. but it's still hanging around. at one point jackie lost sight of it and then you see it's like, well, i lost the eel. i don't have anybody to play with. pecks around in the sand here. can't really come up with a snack. she said at one point they did find a fish and took it up to the surface. does pick up a starfish for a little bit but then like, it's not for me today. all we ever see of the water fowl is go under the water and you see them pop up. you wonder what are they doing down there? now we know what they're doing. pranks are awesome, especially when they make really strong, menacing men sound like

little girls. >> this is an interview -- a job interview. the guy wearing the cap is supposed to be interviewing bouncers for security. >> oh, so you know that some strong manly men are applying for this position. >> pays 150. you good? >> 150? i can do 150. >> the interviewees are very agreeable. >> there's a knock. the men in the cab is like, i'm going to go check this out. this is when it gets good. >> the lights suddenly go out. it's pitch black. we get night vision view of what's happening. look behind the boxes. the lights come back on and then -- >> [ bleep ]. [ bleep ]. >> stupid prank. >> wait until this guy comes back in with a chainsaw. >> oh, man. that's cruel. >> look at the bouncer's faces. that guy looked like he was about to cry.

>> [ bleep ]. [ bleep ]. >> that guy actually gets in a fighting stance. i do appreciate that. >> the other two guys pooed their pants. [ screams ] >> you can't blame them. that is awful. >> of all the people to mess with. big, strong muscular guys. >> they can't fight back against a chainsaw. >> is there even a job? >> the worst part is they are still looking for work. that's going to do it for us here at "right this minute." we'll see you next time. in the drugstore

trying to get a cold medication. it's an entire wall of medications. you're standing there going, "all right. "what the hell? "this is quick-acting, but this is long-lasting. when do i need to feel good, now or later?" it's a tough question. the commercials on tv where they show you what's wrong with the guy-- they always show you the human body, which is usually this guy. no face, mouth open. this is how drug companies see the public. he's always in, like, a certain pain. red, wavy lines are going through him,
