hi, everybody, i'm beth troutman. if you want great videos, this is the show for you, "right this minute." a skydiver makes a jump, then looks around and goes -- >> ahh! >> the scary sight from a pilot's close call. >> flew right underneath our formation. >> wow. a bank robbery hits one big snag. >> a pretty wild story. >> see the twist when a customer reveals who he really is. amazing moves make it easy to see why -- >> this video has gone viral. >> see what drove one woman to become a dancing sensation.

>> it feels really freaking awesome. plus, the buzzword for your shot at a new ipad mini, and taking the turbopeel challenge. now see if nick can beat the clock, too. >> go, go, go, go! a terrifying close call thousands of feet in the air. this is in the skies of dallas, texas. the camera is on jeff coffman, jr., he is a skydiver. he belongs to a team called the free-flying skyscrapers. everything is going just fine. everything looks beautiful. they start doing the formation. holding hands, doing their thing, and everything they're doing seems to be right except jeff goes to pull his shoe and he turns back around and just in that moment look ahead. >> no. >> are you kidding me? >> yes. that was one heck of a close encounter with a little plane. >> that's terrifying. >> how does that happen? don't they close airspace around jump zones like that?

>> let's find out because via skype "right this minute" we have jeff. so, yeah, the question, what happened? how did it happen? >> in terms of how that happens, it's really a bit of a puzzle because our drop zone is marked so pilots flying through the area know that it's the drop zone and they know that skydivers are there, but in this case my guess is the pilot didn't plan his route and if he did, he just flew too close. and ultimately what he did was he flew right underneath our formation. >> wow. >> so, what can happen in a situation like this? does a pilot even know what he did do you think? do you know who the pilot is? is this a fine? >> in terms of us knowing who the pilot is, we weren't able to find out because none of our video got the number on his plane. but i don't think it was intentional. >> how close of a call was this? like, how far were you guys away from him? >> i wasn't really terrified or scared at that moment because i nuf knew it wasn't going to hit me,

but i saw it was really, really close, i was wearing a go pro, if you are familiar with the cameras, they are a wide angle lens and things appear further than they actually are, so that plane was closer to me than what the camera actually shows. i would say it was definitely within 500 feet. >> any concern that this is a local pilot and maybe he does it again just still doesn't know his airspace? >> yeah, that's definitely a concern because it's not the first time that it's happened on any drop zone. it's not going to be the last time it's going to happen. i can tell you that in the history of skydiving, no skydiver and an airplane that wasn't associated with the drop zone have collided. it's never happened. and as you can imagine, the sky is giant, so the likelihood of that happening is extremely rare. so it's probably one of the last things i'm worried about as far as safety hazard goes.

>> this is surveillance video from outside a bank in brazil. walking in you see three guys. they're not there to make a withdrawal. they're there to rob the place, that's kind of a withdrawal you could say, too. watch this. they walk in and right there they assault the guard. take the guard's gun, so now there's nobody to fight against these dudes. they lock the revolving doors and they are starting to round customers ,ing o a certain area. starts demanding money. you can see now this girl with her hands up, terrifying scene. but there's a hero in all of this. it's a pretty wild story. they bring in this guy what looks like jeans and a white t-shirt, get him down on the ground. they lay him down. guess what? he's an undercover cop. he was just there to make a bank transaction and he's armed himself and watch what he does. they have him down on the ground. he gets back up on his knees and then right here, apparently, he shoots the guy right in the head, point-blank range.

kys kills one of his robbers and springs into action firing back trying to go at these other two guys. here's the other robber scrambling when he's figuring out what's happening in the back, he's running for it, the guy in the blue is basically trying to fire back at the undercover cop, this is the other robber and he shoots out the bottom glass so he can push his way through and the other guy gets out but not before being shot a number of times, he's crawling out and he's injured bad. we've got another video from the aftermath. you can see it looks like he was hit a number of times. i don't think this guy's going anywhere. but the guy in the hat did get away in this whole thing. >> what are the odds of that, that an undercover armed cop happened to be making a deposit when these guys went in? >> all of this information coming to us from brazil, a news organization sergio, the good thing it looks like no innocent bystanders were injured, no workers or people going into the bank. the undercover cop apparently uninjured in this. hey, everybody, we're giving

away an ipad mini today. >> that's right. coming up in just a little bit we'll be giving you the thursday buzzword and telling you how to enter and win. >> remember, you have to be 18 years old or older and a u.s. resident to enter. >> standby, everybody, it's the "rtm" ipad mini giveaway. this is an amazing video and there's even a better story behind it. ♪ >> you're watching whitney thor and her best friend todd beazley, they're dancing to "talk dirty" and this video has gone viral. the video is titled a fat girl dancing. whitney the woman dancing in the video she is the one who titled this video, so when people were seeing this at feirst they were taken aback by the title but when they learned the story, they loved it. whitney has a blog it's called no body shame campaign and she

is dedicated to helping people aggressively love their body. no matter the size. and she has not only posted this one video of herself dancing, she has lots of them. and i am so thrilled to say that we have whitney thor via skype from greensboro "right this minute." this is such a wonderful issue that you are tackling. how did this movement start for you? >> i gruf ew up being a perfect healthy 125-pound girl and even since i was 10 years old i internalized a lot of shame about my body and i gained 200 pounds in two years. so, my life changed overnight and i was shocked to see how differently society and everyone treated me when i was fat versus when i was thin. but what was funny was that inside i always felt kind of bad and fat anyway and i've just had a rapid journey into self-love and it feels really freaking awesome. >> so your goal isn't to lose weight, then? >> i would like to lose about

100 pounds just because i can't damage the way i want to, there's a lot of things i can't do physically i want to do but i don't have any interest in being the societal definition of thin ever again. >> your blog is really brilliant because not only are you encouraging self-love but you're also trying to educate the people who try to shame others? >> i think you have to start with how you feel about yourself and what you project outward, but the other message that i would also give to people it's kind of like a reverse body shaming because the site isn't called no fat shame, it's called no body shame because there's a lot of people who are thinking they got on my good side fat's where it's at, only a dog wants a bone. i hate that. i think it's so counterintuitive. we don't build ourselves up as fat women to put skinny women down and the whole real women have curves. all women are real women. i think we have to understand everybody's an individual. everybody's real. everybody's valid. and we all have to just support each other.

lions are the king of the jungle, right? >> not today. >> see how one elephant proves she's in charge. and it's the winter olympics new slope-style run that's stirring up controversy. >> yesterday shaun white said he's not doing this event. he pulled out of the slope-style course. >> now, see what the fuss is all about from a first-person perspective. so i get invited to quite a few family gatherings. heck, i saved judith here a fortune with discounts like safe driver, multi-car, paperless. you make a mighty fine missus, m'lady. i'm not saying mark's thrifty. let's just say, i saved him $519, and it certainly didn't go toward that ring. am i right?

in tanzania on a safari you would presume that a lion would be the king of the jungle, right? >> safe assumption. >> not today. >> apparently a lion ess gets into elephant territory and the elephant not happy about it and gives chase and we discover who really is the scaredty cat. >> look where the lion ended up. >> size isn't the factor here. i mean, an elephant is huge. can definitely do some serious stomping down on a lion, so do you blame the lion? >> they are vacationing in tanzania. they're from australia, and they said the pride of lion was feeding and apparently the female lion got into the wrong territory and the elephant just went a little bonkers like you don't belong here. once the elephant got the lion up the tree, it used its trunk to try to grab her. >> it's usually the lion chasing

a gazelle or something else, this time the lion i think she might step on me. >> one thing to see these animals but to see them in a little bit of action like that. this is a video of the course that lots of people are talking about from the upcoming winter games in sochi, russia. this is the slope-style course which is a new event at these winter games. you're judged on your trick difficulty, your variation of tricks. they don't want you doing the same trick over and over again and also the highest altitude you can get off of these jumps. but lots of guys are getting hurt on this thing. who we are watching is russian snowboarder alexi, he's from trans world snowboarding. so far a norwegian athlete has broken his collarbone and you may have heard that shaun white hurt himself on this thing, too, and yesterday shaun white said he's not doing this event, he pulled out because of the slope-style course because shaun white is the man when it comes

to the half pipe. that's where he's won the gold medal before and he wants to sort of concentrate on that and say, do you know what, i'll leave this to the rest of the guys and when a big name like shaun white pulls his name out of a hat for a specific event it's going to get a lot of attention. >> the people who are practicing on this particular course say it's the fault of the course designers, that some of the slopes are too steep, some of the tricks are too difficult to complete and they even had a meeting as skiers, as competitors saying, hey, if we're going to do this, you guys need to revamp this course before the opening of the games. >> right. and they've been making alterations to the course ongoing as these practices have been happening. but for shaun he said even with the changes that they're making to the course it's just not enough for him. he's going to focus on the half pipe. hopefully by these guys speaking out it will make changes and guys won't get hurt. the humane society moves in to move some tortoises out. >> they had to dig these things out. >> holy cow they're deep!

there they are digging these tortoises up, and these things burrow under the ground. they are not a foot under the ground, they had to dig these things out. >> holy cow they're deep! >> how do they know where they are? >> they don't exactly know where they are, they are going through here carefully trying to dig some up and the good thing is, not only did they move them out, they have someplace to take them. and as you can see here, they're going into this area that's been prepared for them to arrive, but they say they have to fence them in because these tortoises have this i nannate need to go back where they came from and they would start heading home and that would eventually lead them across traffic and goodness knows where. >> great thing they're doing it but still a drag to see their habitats get demoll icial ishde. >> the alternative is so much worse. have an internetle challenge for you guys that could help you in your everyday life. >> hard-boiled egg.
