hi, everybody. it's time for great viral videos, so sit back and relax "right this minute". it's a high wire celebration in italy. >> watch what happens here. soo. >> s>> see what brought the festivities to an abrupt halt. women run for their lives in a night club where they're being attacked with whips. the story behind a band of vie lapt vigilantes. and an nfl mascot takes a

terrifying plunge. and bad weather device. don't drive in it and never jump on a frozen trampoline. what seems like a fun holiday tradition quickly turned in on something par worse. you'll see what i'm talking about in this video out of italy near naples. it's a 45-year-old firefighter, he's dressed as a character who is an old woman, an italian tradition, signifies the end of the christmas holiday. he's going to zip line to a nearby building. there are all kinds of people on the street. and there's music, jubilation. but watch what happens here. >> did the cable just snap?

>> the cable snapped. cause is being investigated. could be brick work not being able to hold the cable. he swings into the tower of the building. very hard. and you'll see when he starts to swing, listen to the thud here. you hear that thud and you see him kind of hanging. paramedics were at the scene and they were able to lower him down. he was rushed to the hospital. had to have emergency surgery for a serious head injury. they're not ruling on the another surgery. they canceled the rest of the event out of respect for him and his family. he is the father of two. i agree. i don't know how you can continue celebrating after a tragic accident. there is probably going to

be some of the most disturbing video you will see all day. what you're looking at are men with whips, they're think called vigilantes by some news reports. they go inside of a club and look what they have in their hands. they're whips. and they're not just going after the women who work in the club. they have guys on the ground and they're going after them, too. now, this happened at a club in western peru sunday night. no word what these women do at the club. they could just be dancers. but some are saying that vigilantes do this in order to crack down on prostitution. it is unknown what these women do for work. but what is sad is they are being attacked with whips by masked men. >> and looks like they're running for their lives. >> is it a religious group?

>> it's the decentralized committee of urban rounds and they distributed to local media. the leader says it was formed to eradicate prostitution and crime. >> you've got women who don't have much of their skin covered up and they're getting hit with whips. they have absolutely no protection. >> no way to go about proving a point. rescue crews were pulling off this rescue and realized there is a well. and one of the rescuers is us down tied to ropes being lowered down slowly because in that well is a 70-year-old man that lost his balance and fell all the way in. this is the second attempt by these rescuers to pull him out. the old man is so exhausted, he

really can't help. second time they took extra rope and this is the moment they're finally able to pull him back up to loose translation, it sounds url covsually covered but this kay it wasn day it wasn't. >> that's quite a fall. >> and it's a tricky rescue. the jacket had collected water making him even more heavy. so doctors immediately start treating him. and even though at first they were worried about him, he suffered only minor injuries. and he'll be all right. winterreaking

havoc on a large portion of the country. this was shot near colorado springs and the road is pretty icy, pretty snowy. and traffic is moving slowly. so you think everything might be going okay. that's not the case. >> there it goes. the guy who shot the video said they took out about six cars. you hear the crunching metal and tires as he moves out of control. you're right, he was going too fast. and keep watching. it's not over. >> another one. >> you see more cars getting out

of control possibly because the accident just up ahead. and it wasn't just cold in colorado. it was also bitterly cold in iowa. this dude just jumped on a frozen trampoline. and you watch the ice shatter. >> like breaking the to havep o creme brule. a holdup turns into a vicious attack when another guy jumps in. why police believe this is only one of many violent robberies. and see how one guy holds the power of iron manual in the fall of his hand.

like us on facebo facebook.com/right this minute. stay in touch all day long. you might recall this video from bolivia. a man attempting to base jump off of a bicycle. he built a ramp, they had a rescue team on hand. and we saw the rider attempt this where the chute opens milliseconds before impact and he crashes on this mountain side and rolls down. injuries described fractures and cuts. we have new video from this. we have helmet cam from the

rider as he's attempting this jump. >> i don't know that i want to see this. >> we saw it the first time and we're like is he going fast enough? and this is even more prove that he i don't think he had enough speed. down he goes. and the first part is the thud. >> it's actually the thud after thud after thud that gets you. >> one of the guys is joining us. what we want to know, what went wrong here? >> there wasn't a lot of preparation that went into it. but the three things that seem most obvious that went wrong, he didn't leave the ramp with enough speed. he comes around the little corner before he jumps off the ramp and slip. that contributed to the fact that he goes off quite fast to the right.

the idea was he was going to hit the middle of the ramp and sail more straight out. by going to the right, he a followed along the edge of the cliff. and then the third one which i'm not an expert on base jumping, but he and the rest of his team seem convinced that the chute didn't open as fast as it should have and a critical second or second and a half was lost. >> did anybody on the rescue team say this doesn't look like a good idea? >> nobody involved was a base jumper, so really we were relying on him and his team to say yes we've looked at this, yes we're confident it will work. i really think it was pretty close to being absolutely disastrous, but i think also it was pretty close to actually coming off. >> what was the conversation that happened after this all went wrong? >> our rescuers got to him in six or seven minutes. he was conscious, but obviously

uncomfortable. so i think tit's considered oka. > . ♪ have you ever wanted to be a cool super hero? this is apparently the iron man 3 stun glove by a geek gadget guru. and it's kind of awesome. >> so if i touch something -- >> that's a lot of special power. >> basically combined a stun gun with cool looking athletic gloves. these spikes serve as your
