>> there's some laughing and screaming and you're trying to figure out what's going on. >> the moment a band of street jackals go on the attack. it's a social experiment called homeless gopro. >> 90% of these people could care if i stand if front of them or not. >> how you see through the eyes of a person you might normally look right past. and a cheer video is going perfectly until they decide -- >> how about a bit of a leap. >> why that part not so perfect. >> oh! no, i can't. i got to go home. >> a three-minute video of a cab ride in new orleans turned into a two-year protracted court battle. >> no. i have to go. >> the woman in the white dress is identified as jennifer gobear, she's an attorney and a bit of a local celebrity in new orleans. in the video it appears she's pulling up her dress and exposing herself. >> are you serious? >> yes, i have to go.

>> no, you don't. >> yes, i do. >> to cab driver herbie farrell. >> i have a girlfriend. >> okay. >> and i love my girlfriend. >> well that's good. >> the video also appears to show gobear touching his again tills. >> almost like a assault. >> i feed to find a place to drop you off. >> right around the corner. >> no. i'm -- >> it's okay. >> it seems in the video she's being very aggressive. like she really wants to get something going here. >> a year after this ride gobear went to place claiming farrell shot an upskirt video without her knowledge and tried to blackmail and extort her. farrell says he reported this incident to the police right after it happened and claimed gobear sexually assaulted him. >> is she intoxicated? >> gobear did admit to being intoxicated during this ride. >> i need to drop you off and -- >> please chill out. you're hot. [ bleep ]. >> according to farrell, police

believed gobear's claims and arrested him. he spent 27 hours in jail. he claims the police never did any kind of investigation and believed gobear's claims that he had video of her and he was trying to extort her. the video was just released and in a trial last week a judge convicted the passenger jennifer gobear of simple battery. the cabbie is filing a federal civil rights lawsuit against his passenger and the city. jennifer gobear faces felony charges for lying to police in her initial statement. >> i really do have to go. oh. >> how is this for a new year's party. check out this. video from this year's song festival in thailand. goes on for multiple days to celebrate thailand's new year. what it turns into, a big party on the street. a big water war. notice these guys from the fun pov youtube channel, they've got

big squirt guns out there and they're just going out drenching people. they're getting drenched at the same time. >> i've seen this festival before and it does look like something i would love to put on my bucket list. so much fun. >> i love it's good, clean fun. everybody is clean when it's over. >> a lot of people on motorcycle, lot of people on pick-up trucks, these guys going down the street and young kids with bowls drenching you. >> it has to be a ton of fun to be a people with the bucket. i'm going to nail them with this bucket of water. they had fun doing something else which maybe crosses the line a little bit. go into convenient stores and gas stations and pretend to hold up the employees there but when you have an only and green neon water gun they quickly realize it's a joke. >> now it does look like a lot of fun but sometimes you got to also point out maybe too much fun. listen to this, the bangkok times says this year there was

more than 1500 road accidents, 161 deaths. >> what? >> actually a number that's down from previous years. >> from this? >> from this festival. more than 1600 people injured. a lot of the injuries does come from drunk driving and speeding out there on the streets because you have to figure people are partying, having a good time and everyone's out in the street. so this kind of stuff -- >> this video is going to make several people especially cyclists really upset. this is in the streets of baltimore. the cyclist on the bike is on his way to meet some friends and everything seems to be just fine, but things very quickly take a very unfortunate turn. he's approaching this intersection, this light, and you hear a big thump. there's laughing and screaming.

you'll complete random unprovo attack against michael bowman, the cyclist. he said he didn't suffer any major injuries because he was wearing a helmet and he thinks the helmet took the brunt of the punches. but he did have an injured thumb when this was over. what you see is him turning back around and picking up his back lock. what he was trying to do when he realized he was about to be attack was take his lock and try to use it as a weapon to protect himself but ended up falling. he did retrieve it before the kids could get to it. >> did they steel anything, take his bike, try to get anything from him? >> they just caused physical harm. they didn't take anything. apparently this isn't the first time this has happened. other cyclists in the baltimore area have said a random attack just like this has happened before. we're going to watch puppies for dollars.

this is called share for dogs and basically it's just a bunch of puppies we need to watch for 60 seconds. i'll tell you why. >> you're raising money for dogs in need. if a video goes viral youtube share the money they make from advertising with whoever made the video and in this case every dollar we earn will go toward feeding, treating, and finding homes for dogs that haven't been as lucky as us. >> these are kind of like puppy glamour shots. real fancy. >> the people behind this pedigree few zeland. they created this video so people could watch it. if they get enough clicks youtube will monetize it and if they mun tize it they get 55 cents for every dollar. that money they're going to turn over to groups that help dogs in need. so that's why they want you to look at these cute puppies. >> that's a pretty great idea. >> yes, it is. >> smart. >> easy way to raise money and all you have to do is shirts it

and go -- >> one of the videos that will go viral because puppies are huge on the internet. like the best of the best. >> don't want to watch this get out of here, shouldn't be allowed to use the internet. move to a country that doesn't have the internet. >> who could resist the wrinkles of a shar pay puppy. i dare you. it's in a pumpkin. >> please, you know what to do. share it. for the dogs. a train comes to a halt when graffiti vandals show up to do work. >> it's infuriating to watch. >> the big effort that made for a bad paint job. >> and see why this music video performance may be too hot to handle. >> oh. michael jackson. it's a michael jackson.

brazen bad acts caught on camera. we start in australia. >> [ bleep ]. >> [ bleep ]. >> these are graffiti vandals and this is a moving train. one of the passengers aboard told a media agency that to halt the train they used a brick to jam under the train and then one of the other kids basically pulled a hose to kind of disable the train. there are passengers aboard and you can hear some of their choice words. >> [ bleep ]. >> looks like they're just blindblind ly spray paint. >> not only are you ruining

other people's property but you're impeding the people from going on with their daily lives. >> at this point you can see some of the passengers start pouring water on the vandals. they keep going. >> yeah, yeah. >> it's infuriating just to watch these dummies cause danger and harm. what if there is another train coming down the track, for a couple seconds of i spray painted it. >> look at it before they run away. you can barely see the spray paint. >> [ bleep ]. this is even crazier. that is a city truck from georgia and they say that a man stole that truck and used it to break into a convenience store. >> they say this isn't the first time he's done it. twoimes in less than t weeks this guy has vehicles to ram into the same store to steal cigarettes, candy and bear. look at this video from the first incident. they say that this man stole vis city truck first, couldn't get

into the store, went across the street, stole the tractor and then tried to get into the store which he did. they say that the trucks are stolen from city property and they say that he's not ramming the gates. somehow he's able to get in and get the trucks out and take them back and not get caught. that's the bigger mystery. >> that's the problem. >> he has access, city employee with access sounds like or somebody is letting him in. >> some kind of inside job. police are still looking for this guy. >> gopro cameras are associated with extreme sports but the producers of the project i'm about to show you are calling what we're about to see shot on gopros extreme living. >> i live in san francisco and i'm -- auto i've been homeless on and off for six years now. >> this is the first person perspective of a homeless man named adam in san francisco. he's been homeless for years. in the video you see him walking through the streets of san

francisco in the castro area. narrating what it is like for him to be homeless. >> most people that are homeless i hear it from friends and see it don't have any type of real interaction that means anything when you're homeless. people treat you differently. >> he's carrying newspapers trying to sell them to people and the reason he's doing that in this particular case is because tomorrow, the day after this video was shot, is his birthday and he wants to rent a hotel room. >> how are you doing? >> tomorrow is my birthday and i'm trying to get a hotel. would you like a paper. 90% could care if i stand in front of them or not. most of them would not want to see me at all out there. >> you can see all the people not looking at him. >> do people wonder why this guy is wearing a gopro. >> this is a project called homeless gopro and it is a brainchild of kevin adler. kevin had an uncle that died a long time ago but for about 30 years his uncle was also a homeless person. and this is his way to bridge the empathy divide and create a

better understanding and sensitivity for homeless people. >> i appreciate it. >> you're welcome. >> appreciate it. >> okay. >> people have given him enough donations so he can stay in a hotel room about a week and gained enough money to have his teeth pulled because he's getting new dentures. the project is getting a lot of attention because there are about 6500 homeless people living in san francisco alone. >> when you boil down to it, we all need food and water and love and compassion. >> this singer's career on fire super hot. her name is lynn. she is south african singer, actress. in nis video she's performing "always on my mind" written by wayne carson popularized by elvis presley and a number of other singers over the years. beautiful video. lots of candles and smoke behind her. but when i say her career was

hot. >> this video. >> oh. >> michael jackson, it's a michael jackson. >> wow. what caught on fire? >> that was her hair. see the candles behind her. she's leaned back just a little bit and didn't notice her hair had caught on fire right away. she's okay, though. probably smelled terrible. burnt hair is the worse. smart move putting it out there. could have deleted that clip. people are watching that, smart. >> the production studio called ignition studios. kind of funny. >> head over to a couple girls raising their game to some new heights here practicing their cheerleading skills. this video unloaded by one of our viewers. the girls practicing having a good time in the middle of the living room. call in one of the littlest girls to perform some of the aerial stunts here. the lightest one. >> yeah. >> time for the lift. and now how about a leap. >> oh! >> oh, no. >> i saw that coming. >> yeah. >> we're so perfectly outside in the backyard.
