1:01 pm

1:02 pm
and the sun rises at 9:17 a.m. but minutes later, something very different is lighting up the sky. >> compared to the sun at that point, it was way brighter than the sun. it was like turning on a light bulb for the entire earth at that moment. >> parts of the sky looked like a fire. >> no one knows what they're seeing yet. but its force is captured on several security videos. cell phones and dashboard cameras. >> what is this thing in the sky? is it a plane? is it a planet? is it going to crash and hit us? is it an alien? >> this isn't an alien. but it is from outer space. a meteor is hurdling toward earth at a frightening speed. >> going about 40,000 miles per hour. >> that's more than 50 times faster than the speed of sound.
1:03 pm
and scientists estimate that the meteor weighs 10,000 tons. that's heavier than four space shuttles. >> i've seen shooting stars and small meteors but i have never seen one this big before, and it really blew my mind. >> as the meteor plunges toward earth, frixz and pressure between the rock and the atmosphere cause it to heat up and catch fire. >> outer portion can be molten. the atmosphere separates off as they melt. you see a trail behind them. a different ion of gas glow at tf colors. the pressure wave caused it to explode. that gives off both heat and light. >> this explosion happens when the rock is about 14 miles above the earth's surface. the intense blast is felt by the unsuspecting population below. >> extremely loud noise that
1:04 pm
shook my apartment so much that my light fixtures were swinging. it blew the vents out of my bathroom and there was debris on the floor. >> this thing comes into the atmosphere and it builds up a pressure wave in front of it because the air cannot move out of the way. >> it came into the shallow angle and so as it was exploding, pressure waves were coming down onto the buildings below. it's about 20 times the explosive energy of the hiroshima and nagasaki bombs of world war ii. >> security video from the local judo class captured the moment the shock wave hit. >> there's a moment in which the window on the far side actually shatters and the curtains actually blow into the actual classroom, and the kids start running away. >> the bangs blew out windows across the entire city. thousands and thousands of windows are smashed. >> the meteor desint greats in the explosion, sending tons of
1:05 pm
debris into the atmosphere, but small pieces of the space rock make it to earth. >> they entered the snow and cause little snow tubes, and the pictures of them are fascinating. >> eight months after the blast, divers recover a large rock from a lake about 60 miles outside the city. it's believed to be a chunk of the meteor, and weighs more than 1200 pounds. a meteor collision with the atmosphere of this magnitude happens once in a lifetime. all the more remarkable that this one is caught on so many cameras. >> the fact there were so many videos taken of this rock as it enters and people were, for other reasons, have all these dashcams in russia, who knew? >> the dashcam phenomenon arose in the late '90s when people were sick of being basically extorted by police when they got stopped or scams, fake accidents to get insurance. >> the dashcam raws on this day
1:06 pm
didn't help to solve crime. but did capture this rare natural phenomenon. >> this is something really extraordinary that happens to regular people who don't happen to be actors. it's not hollywood produced. that's why people find it more interesting and real. >> the meteor blast was one of the most watched videos. >> the explosion causes $33 million of damage to the city. more than 1,000 people are injured, mostly by flying glass. but there are no fatalities. >> the fact that we're capturing these things on video is kind of a reminder we're very small people in this big galaxy, but it reminds us just how vulnerable we can be. coming up -- >> don't bat an eye or you'll miss this. good. and a crash you have to see to believe. >> this collision is intense. it's fast.

horrific crashes. bizarre fights. all captured on dashcam. when driving on the road in russia. russia, more than 900 miles southeast of moscow. july 4th, 2012. a camera on a public bus captures a jaw dropping accident. >> up ahead you can see on the right there's a gas station. >> but on the left, a truck is waiting to make a turn. >> this truck trying to make a left turn into a gas station. people were not paying attention. >> my sense is that he thought he could probably beat the bus.
1:11 pm
>> the vehicle barreled toward the gas station and heads straight for this man. >> not so much the collision of the trucks that's scary but then you see this one guy, and this one guy is backing up, literally, feet away from these two monster sized trucks. >> the video shows huge pieces of both vehicles flying toward him as he scrambles to get out of the way. somehow, he manages not to get hit. but he's caught among a bus, a truck, and a fuel pump. this can't be good. >> you can see the look on his face changes from sheer terror to sheer shock. and now this kind of moment of disbelief, like, what just happened? >> the man is visibly shaken. staggering out of camera range. but not out of harm's way. >> you're kind of waiting for the next moment. even though he's fine for the meantime, something's going to go off and then just have a chain reaction of explosions at this gas station. >> customers seem to have the
1:12 pm
same idea and scatter fast. >> as people were seeing this unfold, there were a lot of cries to turn off the gas pumps and miraculously, they turn them off at just the right moment. a perfect storm of bad and good all happening at the same time. >> 30 passengers are on the bus during the accident. but no one is seriously hurt. when the video makes its way around the internet, the man in the white shirt is dubbed the luckiest man in russia. >> people love near misses. i mean, to narrowly escape being pummel pummeled like that, pretty darn lucky. >> if this is a narrow escape, what is this? september 19th, 2012. a dashboard camera on a car captures a violent crash as it unfolds. >> this collision is intense. it's fast. it's almost over as soon as it starts.
1:13 pm
>> there's a car driving behind a larger truck. and then the truck goes to turn and smashes right into the front of another truck. >> actually another vehicle that stopped just ahead, and i suspect both of these drivers were trying to avoid some sort of situation involving that vehicle. >> your eyes aren't playing tricks on you. the video shows a man flipping through the windshield. >> standing there, thinking i just got into a car wreck. i literally just came out of the front window, but i'm completely fine. >> when the driver of the blue truck walked away, it's like he's playing cool, yo, i'm all right. i got it. >> i think he's scratching his head because that's a natural movement when you're unsure what just happened. so i love that he did that because he wasn't freaking out. he was just kind of contemplating what just happened. >> crazy crashes aren't always between two vehicles on the road.
1:14 pm
december 29th, 2012. moscow, russia. a car with a dashcam is driving down a highway. >> dashboard cameras on the road always seem to start the same way. everything is going fine. we're on the road, driving along. when you see a dashboard camera, you know, wait a few seconds. something will happen. >> that something is a commercial plane crashing on approach to an airport. it slides off the runway at more than 100 miles per hour. >> all this debris is on the highway, hitting cars. >> you can hear pieces of the plane dropping as it breaks apart. >> in one case, what looks like a wheel from the landing gear flies onto the road and hits a car. >> i mean, it was probably one of the things driving down the highway and all of a sudden your car is careening to the other wall and you're wondering what just happened. >> many of us have been in a situation where we have to act quickly on the road. but very few of us have been in a situation where a plane is
1:15 pm
crashing and debris is coming at us. you see seats from the airplane, and you don't know what's coming next. so the feeling of terror and fear that must be going through this driver's mind is impossible to imagine. how many people can say they know what to do when a plane hits their car on the road? it's a crazy situation. >> the red wings airline plane, flight 9268 was coming in from the czech republic. faulty brakes were to blame. eight crew members were onboard, fl three survives. >> there weren't commercial passengers on the plane. actually pretty amazing more people weren't lost in this incident. a plane doesn't have to crash. to shock drivers on the road. august 9th, 2012. it's a cloudy afternoon in
1:16 pm
russia. and something is looming in the gray skies above. >> you see this little black dot, it's coming closer and closer. it's way bigger than a small dot. it looks like a spaceship kind of. >> it seems like it's out of nowhere. a 1960s russian fighter jet bursts out of the sky and comes directly for their car. >> the combat aircraft is a sucoy su-24, like this one, especially designs for low level strike missions. it can travel at speeds up to 817 miles per hour. that's nearly 15 times faster than russia's official speed limit for the freeway. >> you can actually hear that blast of sound that comes with a fighter jet just appears. and the woman in the car screams. or maybe that was the guy, because i would scream like that woman as well. and then just keep driving, keep going. just another day in russia. why not? >> after the video goes viral,
1:17 pm
military prosecutors investigate air field safety measures and flight records. but it's still not clear why the pilot is flying this close to a public road. >> i don't know if you notice but the pilot is really on the wrong side of the street. he should be more to the left. it's big, it's fast. >> there's no warning. >> and it could crush you. >> russia, january distri26th, . a driver heads down a road with his dashboard camera, capturing the bright sunlight, and more importantly, the road ahead. >> things seem to be going fine, and suddenly, out of nowhere. >> a tank literally just whooshes right in front of traffic. >> if i was driving down the street and saw tanks driving down the street, i would probably wave. >> but this tank operator only seemed focus on getting to the
1:18 pm
other side of the road. >> no one when they set out on the road thinks, oh, i better watch out for tanks. never happens. >> the tank barely misses the cars in front. but this driver with a dashcam cautiously stops to let it pass. or maybe he stopped because that's what he's supposed to do. the traffic signal is clearly red. >> americans are exceedingly well behaved motorists. we actually pretty much stick to the speed limit and stop at stoplights. it's a bit of a free for all in many other places. >> this is an unusual sight, but why did the tank cross the road? turns out, the t-90 armored vehicle belongs to a local tank factory nearby and on an afternoon test drive. though it's not visible on the dash camera, the tank is on a snow covered designated path. and the working traffic lights gives it the right of way. >> i have never seen videos like this in the united states,
1:19 pm
mostly because they tend to keep the military equipment under lock and key a little more tightly. coming up -- >> an eye for an eye. and ever talk you way out of a ticket? this driver has a very different idea. >> he knew he was going to get a ticket and he was worried about that? now he's got a person on the hood of his car. >> when "caught on camera, eyes everywhere" continues. audible safety beeping the nissan rogue, with safety shield technologies. the only thing left to fear is you imagination. nissan. innovation that excites. cu...favorite book is nice.. but i think women would rather curl up with their favorite man. but here's the thing: about half of men over 40 have some degree of erectile dysfunction. well, viagra helps guys with ed

1:26 pm
slamming into a concreed divider outside a busy tunnel. >> the airbags go off and he bounces off the airbag into the passenger side. and then he runs out into a street which all the cars are honking at him. >> i like how at that moment there's a first look of panic in his face. >> he doesn't appear hurt, but you don't see what's happening off camera, as he exits the car. he gets hit by oncoming traffic and is rushed to the emergency room and treated for a fractured skull. he's charged with unlawful occupancy of a vehicle without the purpose of stealing. he pleads guilty. hijacking a police car for a joyride, that's bad. but taking the police on a ride with you, that's even worse. july 29th, 2013. moscow, russia. this officer is making a routine traffic stop. but there's nothing routine

about what happens next. >> rather than actually pull over, he hits the cop and keeps driving. now the policeman is on the hood of the car yelling at the guy as he continues to basically speed down the street. >> this is somebody who can arrest you. >> and the windshields come on. he's like, are you serious? i'm on the hood of your car and you turn on the windshield, you're going to prison, son. >> there must have been some point he thought he was past the point of no return. he knew he was going to get a ticket and he was worried about that? now he has a person on the hood of his car. things got a lot worse. by the way, this policeman has a really good grip. like, he's hanging on and he's not giving up. >> the officer's ride on the hood of the car comes to an abrupt stop. >> the cop kind of rolls out of the shot and the driver just turns to the left and keeps going. the cop is then suddenly nowhere to be seen. >> when the cop tumbled off the car, it looked like it was a low enough speed and off to the side
1:28 pm
where the cop wasn't going to be seriously injured. there the cop is taken to the hospital and treated for minor injuries. after two days on the run, the drafrb driver is arrested. his license is suspended and he's charged with the use of violence against a representative of authority. he pleads guilty and apologizes for his actions that day. >> maybe takes a little more than an apology. not only is the cop on your hood forever, but now everyone in the world has seen it. maybe a nice dinner and a beer, too. >> coming up -- >> eye popping views from above. that will make your palms sweat. and do you trust your friends enough to let them do this to you? when "caught on camera, eyes everywhere" continues. using wellness to keep away illness... and believing that a single life can be made better by millions of others. healthier takes somebody who can power modern health care... by connecting every single part of it.

1:35 pm
the place. >> it looks like he's wearing leggings, which is also like a great fashion statement. >> even if he's wearing leggings, he's definitely not wearing a harness. and he says he's got a good reason for that. safety ropes and safety equipment are first of all, a pain in the neck. you become excessively dependent and attached to them which means you have to get everything right even more. >> as if there's any room for error when performing stunts 700 feet above the ground. >> i did all the moves a certain way. i did what i knew i could do physically. if i could do it 50 times on the ground, i could do it 50 times up there. >> there's a stereotype about russian fatalism, which can be really overplayed, but seems to be real when it comes to health and safety. >> it has been basically, well, whatever happens happens. it's not in my hands. >> after five minutes, the three friends climb down the radio tower and post the video,
1:36 pm
showcasing their nerves of steel. >> showed other people what the body is able to do physically. he wanted to motivate you. this was a small role that i achieved. >> this urban crime is measured in two ways, getting back to the ground safely and getting lots of attention on the internet. >> everybody wants to have that video that goes viral. >> he gets over a million hits in the first week. >> you know, the secret to our popularity with this activity is we're the first ones who did it. we combined a workout which is a strength element that is employed on horizontal bars and parallel bars with an extreme height. >> a million views in the first week and climbing are hard to beat. but others have achieved similar success. >> there's another viral video where a young man is climbing the top of a skyscraper in moscow and it's got a star at the top of it, so essentially he's reaching for the stars.
1:37 pm
>> the star sits on top of one of the seven sisters, famous skyscrapers built by stalin. >> what's sturbing about this is in the notes, he actually apologizes for the shaky camera because it was in his mouth for a while because he needed his hands to avoid dying. it's very suspenseful to see him doing it, and even as he finishes, he's like -- you can see that he's terrified himself doing this. >> when the video first started coming out, there was a cynical response of he's going to fall, what an idiot. then, cow know, as anyone who has much exposure gets fans and followers. >> we love watching russians do stuff like this. partly because we believe they're filled up on vodka when they do it. they're probably not. it requires sobriety to pull it off safely. >> these dare devils scale buildings and towers, but the girl in this video flies. >> i challenge anyone to watch this video with a straight face.
1:38 pm
>> this video shows a group shove a girl off of a roof attached to what looks like a homemade bungee cord. >> that's the epitome of peer pressure. we have a great idea. there's a building outside of town, and i think i figured out how to swing you off the side of it without getting you killed. you in? >> the girl plunges towards the ground, and sweeps dangerously close to the edge of a building. >> you kind of want to see how it ends up. is she going to smack into the building? is the bungee going to snap? >> she screams like she's going to die. she's swinging so close to the department building. this is where reality sets in. you're like, i might die now. >> the video shows her narrowly miss hitting the building. suspended several stories below her friends, she does not appear
1:39 pm
hurt. >> i was glad that i immigrated at 9 cleyears old. >> russians have a lot of ruspect for what they call raw human nature. you know, that's what people do. kind of you're on the edge. but you have this enormous sense of freedom because you're taking a risk. >> that is the goal because it's got all the story telling and elements of something that is unexpected and funny and also adventurous and a rush at the same time. >> that girl on the top of that building. they may actually not like her, like it might not be, hey, let's all jump off this building. it may actually be, hey, we don't like her. let's push her off this building, because there's no reasonable explanation for why she would do this. coming up -- >> black eyes and body slams. >> it's like the only rule is that there are no rules. >> when "caught on camera, eyes everywhere" continues.

1:44 pm

that lair rr goithey're going tr coordinated shirts to get in a brawl. >> when you go to a stadium, for every two fans, there's probably one policeman in full riot gear, not to be messed with. >> two on one? not quite. but intense, absolutely. so these fans choose their battleground far from the soccer stadium and far from the police. >> there's a lot of issues around how to deal with football. it takes away from the game. >> one of the groups actually tactically moves onto a bridge to reduce the number of people fighting at any given time. which is like a military strategy. like this is more braveheart than west side story at this point. >> after brawling for close to 15 minutes, the rowdy crowd dispersed. >> one of them runs off and i think it's because their curfew is 10:30. >> even though this video is recorded in 2005, in 2012, there
1:46 pm
are nine similar incidents, and police are still battling the ongoing problem. there are no winners in a violent fight like this. and there is no winner on the field later in the day, either. the match ends in a tie, 1-1. if you can't turn away from a cell phone video of a rumble, wait until you see this high definition 15 angle smackdown. in december 2012, a new kind of show body slams its way onto the internet and local russian sports stations. >> there's a big love for mma, for mixed martial arts in russia, but this is something slightly different because this is a little bit tougher. >> tougher with the addition of some violent twists like this two on one action. team fights, then obstacle courses. >> they all seem to jump onto this riser, like, hey, let's
