get a little out of hand. >> i've never seen the waves this high. it's scary. >> and suddenly go wild. >> what did i do to you? a high-speed power boat flips. >> that is absolutely massive. >> and the pilots are trapped upside down under water. it's august, 2006, at the honda british grand prix world championships in plymouth, england. a win here represents the pinnacle of international class one speed racing. >> it was my first year in the

big boats, and my dream ticket to drive british's only class one power boat racing. >> go, go, go, go! >> pilots james shepherd and chris are racing "king of shaves" sponsored by the company of the same name which sells shaving products. >> powered by twin lamborghinis engines, and probably cost about 2 million pounds to build, $4 million. >> ceo will king says driving the boat is like racing a ferrari on the water at 150 miles per hour, an intense thrill. and a dangerous one, too. skimming along at these speeds, things can go wrong fast. shepherd has won the honda formula 4 series several years

running, but his first time competing at the british grand prix. >> any race you do in any series and you make an impression. >> the fact they're the only british boat in the race amps the pressure up even higher. >> it's a home race and i really wanted them, a, to enjoy the day and, b, to come out on the podium would have been fantastic. >> the boat was probably ranking in third or fourth in terms of speed. >> you think starting at the back will be terrible or all right? >> we'll sit there and we'll get a good shot at it. >> by the first corner, the "king of shaves" has moved up from 12th position to 6th. >> we were driving it. we had a few discussions as to how to make some of the corners. >> take it down! just keep going. >> chris and i disagreed for the first couple of laps, but we worked that out by lap four. it was good racing conditions and things were going according to plan. >> the two-man team must maintain a delicate balance at high speeds.

>> think about what we're doing as we come in. slow your turn! slow your turn! >> a bit like trying to drive the car when one person has the steering wheel and the other person has the brakes and accelerator. it's a bit of a balancing act between us. >> the "king of shaves" is closing in on the front runners with four laps to go. >> we were catching the leaders at about 1.5 seconds a lap and there was enough time in the race. i mean, we were only about 200, 300 meters behind them. >> 3.11 seconds and that's almost a second quicker than the race leader. >> it came across that king shaves got up into second place. and obviously, liz and i, james' wife, is standing there thinking, oh, my god, this is amazing. he's doing really well. let's keep our fingers crossed. >> i knew he would be so thrilled as to how they were doing.

>> the "king of shaves" makes a final bid for first place, but something doesn't feel right. >> get in! get in. she's loose. >> i remember saying to chris it feels a bit loose. there's so much of the boat out of the water, it's just skating. >> they're going 160 miles an hour when the boat ahead loses an engine, slows down and churns up some wake. the men know they could be in serious trouble. >> in the middle. >> we're going to be in his way. >> that's all right. it's better than me being on the edge of it. >> it just popped the right-hand side of the boat up and then the whole thing was the physics that took over from that point. it tipped over from that point. >> we're on our way, that's why. okay, think about this. >> the "king of shaves" hits the wave and flips fast and hard. >> the deceleration was unbelievable. 160 miles an hour to 0 in i think about 15 meters. >> one minute, everything is extremely noisy.

>> think about this, we're safe. >> chris and i are -- >> keep on it! >> the next minute, absolute terror under water. >> i thought the boat had gone over and over and over. it just felt like you were in a bit of a washing machine. >> a dash cam in the cockpit shows the pilots trapped upside down. >> "king of shaves" has crashed. >> liz and will are desperate to know what's happening. >> i guess time just froze. i just was saying to will, can you see their helmets? are they out? >> no safety boats in the immediate facility and it was just a silence and i just thought james, are you okay? >> but james is not okay. the pilot's oxygen valves are flooding and they have to reach the surface fast in order to survive. >> the drill was that chris goes out through the floor of the boat first, which is now the top

of the boat. >> they can barely see each other and communication is impossible. james realizes that chris is still inside the cockpit. >> i realize that chris hadn't gone. i didn't want to pop my belts and go out for fear of chris then doing the same thing at the same time. >> as the water levels rise, there's no time to waste. james releases his safety belt and pushes the escape hatch open. a mounted exterior camera has survived the crash and records the desperate scene as james tugs at chris to follow him out. >> did have a hold on him as we came out of the cockpit and then i let go. >> after agonizing seconds, james reaches the surface. >> i was desperate to see that he'd come out of the boat because, you know, you can imagine him stuck in a boat and maybe injured and can't get out, whatever. anything could have happened. it was a very high-speed crash.

>> james is out. but where is chris? james looks around in the water. >> as soon as i saw his helmet i thought, that's great, we're both out. i remember swimming over to chris, grabbing hold of him. >> moments later, a rescue crew arrives. james and chris make it out alive, but the boat is totaled. >> here we have blown up this 2 million pound power boat. half of one hull is blown out. the twin lamborghini engines and all the electronics would have all been ruined. >> the "king of shaves" finishes second to last, beating only a disqualified boat. >> of course, the "king of shaves" have won driven by british guy shepherd at the grand prix, fantastic. >> it's not the result they hoped for, but they walk away with their lives, able to sail another day. >> you know, accidents happen.

and there you go. so, we get on and rebuild for the next race. that's all. >> we were lucky that day. but all i can think about is the fact that we should have got second or might have challenged for first in that particular race. so, there's a challenge that i've still got to do one of these days. coming up, chaos on a motorcycle race track. >> flags going up everywhere. oh, this is mayhem. >> when "caught on camera: out of control" continues.

and for a handful of elite professional athletes, the possibility of returning home an ironman champion. >> the ironman is the holy grail. everybody want to win that ironman. >> it's october 1997 in kona, hawaii. americans sian welch and wendy ingraham are friends and professional triathletes and among the year's strongest contenders. >> i put a huge effort into the event for '97. it's like, i think, on paper, i can win this. >> for the first time, i really believed i could win the hawaii ironman. >> i just saw a glow in her eyes. she was in probably the best head space that i had seen her in years. >> the day begins in the water where wendy promptly sets a new women's swim record.

she expects to lose her lead during the bike ride, but it doesn't happen. >> and i was just like, what's wrong? am i here, is this the right day? are they still racing? what happened? did they crash? and all these thoughts were going through my mind because no one had caught me yet. i was on cloud nine and i was just like, i think i might actually do it this time. i might actually win the ironman. >> the race is shaping up differently for sian. >> the day of the race, i knew that something was wrong with my body. about 30 miles into my bike, i just was not able to keep anything down. it was almost like a projectile vomit. anything that went in went back out. >> it's a potentially dangerous situation if sian can't take in enough nutrition or becomes dehydrated. >> i was just trying to drink as

much as i could each aid station. >> they've already been pushing their bodies for hours. then, during the final 26-mile marathon, wendy runs into trouble. >> i require a lot of salt tablets. i had to take them every couple of miles. around mile 13 or 16, it's just hot and windy and it's the hardest part of the race for a lot of people. and i go to reach into my little bag to get them and they were gone. >> wendy has dropped her salt tablets somewhere on the road and she still has a half marathon to run. >> and i was trying not to panic, but like, okay, i didn't devise a plan "b" here. >> wendy slows down, losing her lead to canadian athlete heather furor. then canada's lori boden passes her. at mile 24, sian catches up.

>> i knew she had been coming, and i was just like, oh, you know, i can't have another person pass me. i knew i couldn't catch her going down the hill because my quads were so cramped and, i'm like, it's still two miles to go, anything could happen. >> sian is feeler better than she has all day and is now in third place, but the glory is brief. >> at mile 25 in the ironman, you start to go down a hill. when i went down that hill, i thought, oh, my goodness. my quads just seized up. and, so, i started to stumble a little bit and then all of a sudden my legs just gave out. i felt like jell-o. i had no idea why i couldn't do what i wanted to do. >> she's pushing her body to the limit with no more calories to burn.

sian's mother and brother are filming what should be her victory to the podium. >> they were so excited to see me finished and they were all prepared to cheer me in. >> instead, they see brazilian athlete fernanda keller go by to claim third place and sian faltering, with wendy just behind. >> i think when athletes look behind them, it's a bad sign. a real bad sign. it is just a panic. when i saw her coming. >> when i came around that corner and i saw her falling, i'm like, now, i have to make my move now. >> she was like this big preying mantis, you know, running to the finish line with these wings that were just incredible. >> i was thinking, oh, my gosh,

i'm going to be able to pass her. she's down. i need to go faster. what if it becomes a sprint. how am i going to sprint? it's like you want to get to that line first. you do. >> but as she is about to pass sian, wendy falls. the women are just feet away from the finish line. >> and then wendy fell. sian got up, wendy got up. they tried to run, but they couldn't do anything. they were helpless. >> and as you can hear, my mom is, "go, sian!" and then her voice becomes panicked seeing that i have some major problems here. >> and she really was thinking, maybe i could die, you know?

>> their bodies are breaking down in an anguished battle for fourth place. >> i was like, oh, this is so frustrating. i was like, come on. you see the line. you know you put so much effort into it. you just want to get there. that's when i'm like, i'm just gonna crawl. like when you're a baby, you want that bottle, you just crawl to it. >> i just looked at her and i thought, well, that's what i need to do. >> after 140 miles and nearly ten hours, it comes down to ten seconds separating them at the finish line. >> i just wanted to pull her across the line and hug her like we made it, we did it, we got here. >> when i come across the line, wendy puts her hand on my hand and just is like, we did it. >> the moment is brief. family members whisk the women away to the medical tent. >> i tried.

>> you did great. >> you did unbelievable. unbelievable. >> i knew how much they would love to see me win that race and, so, it was like the first thing that i wanted to tell them is, oh, i just, i tried so hard. >> this crawl has become ironman legend. a raw display of will and determination to fight to the finish. >> some days, it's just not your day. it's not your day, and then you want it to be the next best person's day. so, there's really no room for anything but compassion because it is -- it's a hard sport. it was a great day. if was a great rivalry. >> they are dehydrated and exhausted. but after medical treatment and rest, sian and wendy are soon back on their feet. >> congratulations. >> thank you.

>> i was back down at the finish line that night cheering on the rest of the athletes at midnight and dancing and throwing out t-shirts and a big smile on my face and a cheeseburger in my belly, i was good to go. >> years later, sian and wendy's friendship is still strong. >> i still can't even believe how that happened with not just one person but two people. it is a special thing to have with a friend. >> and they're still running. >> as an athlete, you're just thinking, i want to finish and as soon as you go across the line, you're thinking, when is my next race so i can redo this? coming up, wreaking havoc from behind the wheel. and then -- >> he was prepared to drive through a graveyard and desecrate that in order to try and get away. >> when "caught on camera: out of control" continues. crabfest is back.

right towards the first responders. the driver narrowly misses a fire truck, but 22-year-old volunteer firefighter william krause can't get out of the way in time. >> oh, my god. what the hell was that about? >> as krause tries to dodge the suv, he trips. >> he probably wasn't sure what direction to jump in or, even more importantly, where the car was going. okay, where do i go? i'll just hit the grass. >> in a split second, krause is trapped underneath the suv, as the driver keeps going. fellow firefighters and police run after the car, then -- [ gunfire ] police open fire. hoping to stop the driver. james heck is still rolling as shots ring out. >> jesus christ. >> i ran as close as i could to the scene and kept on shooting. >> the driver swerves to escapes

the bullets and krause is thrown from underneath the car into the road. one of the rear tires runs over krause's leg, breaking his femur. firefighters rush over to help and cops pull the driver out of the vehicle. the operator of the suv is 30-year-old luther harling. earlier in the day, he nearly struck a police officer with his car in neighboring norristown. authorities gave chase, but called off the pursuit after harling crossed into the next town. but a half hour later, harling comes barreling through the road block set up around the accident scene. firefighter krause is conscious, but badly injured. >> a lot of concern, a lot of panic, is this guy going to make it? is he all right? >> krause is unable to see since the impact from the hip breaks the capillaries in his eyes, temporarily blinding him. soon, he's on a gurney and headed to a chopper. krause suffers multiple broken

bones, including fractured vertebrae. doctors say he came within centimeters of a spinal injury that could have left him paralyzed. luther har ling is convicted of recklessly endangering another person. he serves four and a half years and is released in 2003. three years later, he dies in a car accident. his attorney says harling's erratic behavior was caused by a mix of percocet and cocaine. and har ling had no memory of the accident. after months of rehab, william krause returns to firefighting and james heck continues to shoot local news stories, though he doubts he'll ever see another story quite like this. >> it was an extraordinary situation. he's lucky to be alive. a quiet rural village is the site of a different kind of vehicle disturbance.

chicago is known for extreme weather and its hardy residents generally take things in stride. but every once in a while, something happens that's unusual, even by chicago standards. >> i've never seen the waves this high.

it's scary. >> i got hit by a wave and i was going backwards when i was trying to go forward. >> lake shore drive boasts one of chicago's most stunning backdrops. popular with tourists, outdoor enthusiasts and commuters. eric nelson lives across the street in a high rise with spectacular views of the water front. >> it's usually just packed. lots of runners, lots of people on their bikes. >> but on september 30th, 2011, high waves on lake michigan pummeled the shoreline raging out of control. >> i first realized something out of the ordinary was happening that morning when i got up. >> eric is surprised to see enormous waves crashing against the shoreline below. he records the scene to show friends and then heads out to investigate. >> waves were coming up 20, 30

feet in the air and crashing out well across the jogging path and right up to the street. >> people are still using the path along the lake. many unaware of the danger just ahead, until it's too late. >> people pressed up against the fence by the path, literally grabbing on as the waves are coming in off the lake. when i saw people from the other side turning around and going back and people wiping out in front of me, i thought, it's not safe. >> across town at the national weather service forecast office, meteorologist mike bardu is monitoring high winds in the area. >> we had several hundred mile of wind coming from the north aiming at this particular point at the shore that was facing almost straight north. >> the s-curve where the bike path hugs the shoreline across from eric's house is ideal set up for high winds to unleash punishing waves. >> if you're standing next to a two-story building, that's how

high the water was coming at you out on the lake. the waves along the immediate shore were probably 15 to 20 feet. >> the office of emergency management cordon off the bike path. a local photographer sees an opportunity to document something special. >> the police were already here. they closed the beach. they told them that you need to photograph what was happening out here. >> preston keeps a safe distance, unlike others. >> the wave hit the wall and just soaked me. i took my headphones out because my ears were full of water. wear a poncho. that's all i can say. >> they were oblivious to the fact that there are 10 and 15-foot waves coming at them. >> preston's photographs capture the scene. >> some of them were just once in a lifetime shots. there was one shot that actually looks like there is a mollusk

rising up along the shoreline. >> high winds and towering waves assault chicago for the next 36 hours. >> it's hard to really grasp until you are down there and hear kind of the crashing and roaring and feel the water spraying back from 30 feet out. there most definitely the most dramatic i've ever seen here. >> the next day it was like it never happened. finally, a fisherman when a goose hooks him. the tables are turned. drew gregory is an avid kayak fisherman and emerging water sport that requires extremely good balance. >> kayak fish something a relatively new way to get into water that other boats can't access. >> with greater mobility and no noisy water, kayak fishing allows anglers to access more remote waters.

>> getting more uneducated fish. plus you get to stalk the fish. that's really a lot of fun. >> in january, 2010, drew takes a fishing trip with a couple of friends to st. marks, florida. >> it was a gorgeous day, catching a few fish here and there and things couldn't have been better. >> he has a video recorder attached to his kayak to document the trip. >> as a professional kayak fisherman, or in my process to become one, i needed to film myself on the river to show, hey, this guy knows what he's doing. you just never know what you're going to film. >> it's shaping up to be a pretty uneventful excursion until a pair of geese show up. >> these two geese come out of nowhere kind of honking around at me. they were friendly. i had no issues with them i didn't mind if they hung out a little bit. >> geese are extremely territorial and they will attack quickly when they are threatened. they seem calm, curious even.

>> the geese were starting to become a little friendlier and they got a little bit into my space. from time to time, get very close to my lures and even try to take like little bites out of it. >> i know where they're at, man. >> the geese swim around for an hour or so while drew continues fishing. then, things change. >> no, no, you idiot. don't bite that. look. this thing's going to eat a hook before all's said and done. >> one of them decides to just kind of saddle right up beside me nice and quiet and this is where our relationship took a turn for the worst. >> drew is so focused on fishing, that he stops paying attention to the geese and just as drew sits back down, one of them pounces. >> this goose is on my back. i've got feathers going everywhere. i'm trying to knock it off. i have no idea why there is a

goose on my back at the moment. next thing i know i'm just in the water with this bird. >> drew flips over into the water with the goose still on his shoulders. >> i have just been attacked by geese. >> the goose keeps honking and hissing at drew who is stuck in the water, clinging to his kayak. >> stupid geese. >> in the moment he's baffled about why the goose attacked. >> what did i do to you? >> while it's impossible to tell what sets the goose off, drew has his own theory. >> i think the final conclusion may have been, since i was so friendly with this goose, it could have feelings for me. >> we'll never know if it was a love connection gone wrong or a territorial dispute. but since the incident, drew steers clear of geese.

>> what did i do to you? all of our stories have been caught on camera. they're situations no one wants to find themselves in, situations no one wants to confront. but what would you do if you came upon a man trapped inside a burning car engulfed in flames? >> i knew eventually the car would probably going to explode. >> or if you watched a woman silently slump to the floor of an emergency room. >> this was so not violent but so violent. >> what if you witnessed a life or death struggl o
