9:30 am
hi, everybody. i'm beth troutman. time for great videos and the stories behind them, "right this minute." a car and a biker get into it on the road. >> the biker is not alone. he's got friends. >> the showdown leading to a full metal meltdown. a sea creature falls under a spell causing -- >> a temporary paralysis? >> see the trick to hypnotize a shark. the internet is obsessed with a snake losing its head but still -- >> biting its own tail. >> the freaky science behind the viral hit. >> oh, it just bit itself.
9:31 am
plus, a dancer back flipping out of control and a kid who is too tired to travel. >> dade they check her pulse? never a good idea in my opinion to get into a road rage incident when you're riding a motorcycle. right there. see that white car? kind of swerved into the lane of the motorcycle rider. that motorcycle rider did not like that one bit. gave him a piece of his mind as he drives by. the guy in the car seems to do it again. that sparks several minutes of back and forth rage. you see the biker get in front of the car. he slows down but the biker is not alone. he's got friends. so they backed his car in and slow down. eventually that car goes by and takes off.
9:32 am
the next minute is a chase. >> so stupid. just let it go. there's nothing worth this. >> the biker s do catch up with that car again. they want to fight this guy now? >> looks like it. >> well -- >> the driver pulls up ahead. here's where it gets real dangerous. >> what are you doing? >> the guy in the car slams it in reverse, just smashes into the guy's bike. that pushes his bike into one of the buddy behind him. there's an edit in the video right here because take a look at the driver's side view mirror. it's not broken. here you see a cut in the video. now the side view mirror is broken. looks like there's about two seconds missing. whatever was eliminated from video could be what caused this driver to slam it in reverse and smash the bike.
9:33 am
the video i'm about to show you is nothing short of chilling. the first one is in peru. you notice a couple sitting down at t a restaurant. a server approaches him. seems to be taking their order. just after sitting there, another man wearing some sort of a disguise and a hoodie walks into the restaurant and then this. shoots the man sitting at the table point blank. the man sitting at the table was 54-year-old. he apparently was a hit man and the man that came with was another hit man hired to off this man because apparently he had been having an affair with the wife of yet another hit man. >> so this is hit man on hit man on hit man, basically, we're talking about. >> all because of a love affair. >> apparently that woman is his
9:34 am
wife and she got to see all of this happen in front of her. >> he ended up passing from the injuries of this attack on his way to the hospital. >> a witness was able to write down the license plate of the get-away car which ended up being a taxi. apparently this man had hired that man to drive him away after the incident but police were able to find and arrest both of them. this other incident happened in las vegas. police released this video. they'ring lookie inine inlookin that they see here because they say he's responsible for shooting in a very crowded area following an altercation with several people throwing punches. you see one guy knock another guy out. and then the guy with the black t-shirt comes back. you see he pulls a gun from his waistband and shoots. he ends up striking two innocent bystanders. they ended up being non-life
9:35 am
threatening injuries. but police are still looking for this suspect. time to put on your thinking caps. we're going back to school. >> this is fun. >> yeah, this is terrifying. i've seen videos of this before where they put a shark into a trans. >> beth is right. this is a temporary paralysis caused by rubbing a shark's nose. this is a shark in the bahamas. 15 of them are swimming around. divers are 45 feet down. he's holding a fin and rubbing its nose. and scientists say this causes a temporary paralysis which basically puts them to sleep. you can see there, it is bala e balancing on his hand. balancing on the hand reilike a circus act. >> who wants to become a shark hypnotiz hypnotize. >> he's got him balanced on his knee. carefully tilting it up.
9:36 am
and all the other sharks, they don't seem to be bothered by that. like, oh,harlie is geing amassa. let's leave him alone. >> by having his hand on the shark's nose is messing with his senses and navigation ability, right? >> that's the hypothesis by scientists and say this could last up to 15 minutes. take a look at these images. these are all really bad parkers in australia. you can see people up on the curb taking two parking spaces, parked in clearly marked handicap spaces. all pretty bad parking jobs. because of that a page has been created called perse worst parkers. they're shaming these people, as you can see from this facebook page. license plate, clearly visible. >> if you look at the photos, it's not just one every couple of days. they're constantly uploading.
9:37 am
>> one of the reasons people are so concerned about bad parking, the laws are about to change and people can now in this area get a fine of up to 270 australian dollars. about 245 u.s. dollars. this is a big deal to people. >> this is a pricey ticket for to the paying attention when you pull your car into a space. are you that much -- unless you are having a baby you don't need to park like that. >> it's not just paying attention. it's just disregard. patricia the lamb was born paralyzed in every limb. >> in those cases that would mean patricia would end up in a slaughterhouse but today, guys, she doesn't. >> the story of how she was given a second chance to get walking. and talk about a smokin' ride. >> spitting and burping flames out the back of an exhaust. >> why this dude
9:40 am
i am about to warm your hearts with this story. this is little patricia. patricia at this point is 18 days old. she was born with quadaparasis. she has no ability to move her limbs at all. in most cases that means patricia would end up in a slaughterhouse but todays guy, she doesn't because vegan hopes is an animal rights organization in spain that is going to take little patricia to the enchanted valley in spain for rehab. >> this is great. >> this animal sanctuary specializes in animal acupuncture. >> no joke. >> acupuncture. >> here you see the specialist putting the acupuncture needles around her body. >> after two days she was able to walk in her wheelchair, which is what you're seeing here. >> it's magic. >> it's like magic. just one week after she was able
9:41 am
to stand without any assistance. >> that's remarkable. just in a few days. >> they could do this for a lot of animals. >> there is patricia swimming away in this pond. >> i'm so happy that they didn't have to put her down. one of the things that's happened in the last decade at churches are praise dances. people who do a choreographed dance to christian music. that's whitney houston singing "i love the lord." this guy is really getting into it. he's graceful. he's got ballet going on in what looks like an old fashion black -- that would be ms. whitney houston. watch this. he does a cartwheel. he does other gymnastics. >> oh, no! >> took out the picture. >> he just kept on going. he didn't even stop. >> the show must go on.
9:42 am
>> keeps moving and then he picks up the picture. somebody else comes? >> doesn't look like anyone else was phased by what happened. >> he did the cartwheel i thought, wow, i've never seen gymnastics done in the praise dance. but this, a back flip, the double back flip, bam, the picture. >> i'm going to kick this service up a notch. >> they gave him a standing ovation. driving around in your sports car isn't getting you enough t attention, maybe you need to add a little bit more heat. the new thing out there, nissan skyline gtr in the central streets of london spitting and bumping flames out the back of the exhaust. the exhaust system has been upgraded so the car is flashy and cool but now it's also loud. s really dumb, right?ink this >> if you're a car enthusiast,
9:43 am
you may love this. if you're living in central london, the local there, you're not happy. you're pretty irritated about this. >> i think it's funny they do this on purpose. you know, to make the flames shoot out the back because if i was driving next to this guy and feel the need to wave him down and tell him, dude, something's wrong, man. your car is on fire. >> now not only do you get the flames but you also get the backfires, too. it almost sounds like gunshots. listen. >> wow. >> kind of cool if you like this kind of thing. kind of annoying if you live around this kind of thing. do you always do the right thing? >> nobody's perfect. nobody's perfect. >> see how one guy is challenging folks to do the right thing. and an out of control downhill bike race. >> 18 miles long. you descend 8,000 plus feet. you start on a glacier. and watch these dudes. >> the thrills and spills that happen along the way, next.

9:47 am
right thing with several hundred dollar bills. >> fake $100 bills in his wallet. and then on the wallet he writes, please do the right thing. he then gets into the subway. pretends to be asleep while his wallet falls out of his pocket. and finally, this couple pick up the wallet. they tap him, hey, here's your wallet. >> good people. >> it worked. >> do you think it worked because he had to tell them, do the right thing? he wrote it pretty bold. it's almost like, somebody's watching you. >> well, the whole point is to actually write that message on things that you could lose because it will incentivize people who find the item to do the right thing. you don't entirely leave it up to them you encourage them to do the right thing and he says he does this with all of this stuff. >> that's his number. >> cool. >> it gets even better. >> i made these stickers.
