in the air. bbc photographer fred scott has been in iraq since the lead up to the war, recording nearly every second of his days with the bbc team covering the story. >> when you're in a situation where something could kick off immediately around you, you tend to be rolling the whole time. >> you've been miserable -- >> that morning, they receive a tip that the town just south of the iraqi front line has fallen. >> we just set off on the hope that we could get in as americans, and particularly, the kurds went in and liberated it. we set off full of anticipation. and it was exciting. >> and extremely dangerous. >> be very careful about pushing it too far. it looks really, really quiet out there. but they can see you coming a long way off. >> just as we were questioning to ourselves whether we should go any further, massive convoy of american special forces and kurdish special forces and commanders drove past us at high speed.

and we decided to follow them. >> the convoy pushes forward toward the front line. >> that tower there is -- >> suddenly we felt a lot safer. >> but not everybody feels that way. cameron abdurazad muhammad, the 25-year-old kurdish man working as an interpreter for the bbc, is nervous about the journey. >> please wear your flak jackets -- >> thank you. >> about three or four miles down the road, suddenly the convoys stop. you could see everyone get out and start inspecting an iraqi tank that had been blown inside of the road. >> scott sees an opportunity to get some new footage of american f-14 jets flying overhead. >> i had never seen them banking and turning that low before. so i grabbed the camera, and i remember -- i think i asked tom to grab the tripod. >> i remember opening up the back of the land cruiser, just

as i did that, getting a call on my phone. >> a kurdish military cameraman recording his colleagues preparing for battle captures producer tom giles pausing next to the car to answer the phone. >> it was my mother ringing to wish me happy birthday, because in all the fuss, i had forgotten at that moment it was my birthday. i remember saying, mom, i really can't talk now, there's a lot of front line activity going on. at the time, there was a huge, great swelling sound of air force jets overhead flying over. and i remember making a joke to her, because she hadn't been a supporter of the war, but actually holding the phone up and shouting, "listen, mom, that's the sound of freedom." >> in a split second, that sound of freedom is shattered by the sound of war. [ shouting ] >> i just remember a white projectile coming over and past my left shoulder with a red

nose. and next thing i know, i was just flat on my face, ears ringing. >> the entire convoy of kurdish and american soldiers and the bbc crew following them are hit. >> grabbed the camera. [ shouting ] >> as i tried to get to my feet, it wouldn't start. i reset the fuse, and it started rolling. >> with his own blood clouding the lens of his camera, scott documents the scene around him. >> bodies are slumped against the horns of the cars and car alarms are going off. [ shouting ] >> and, of course, screaming. it was all kind of dull and compressed because i couldn't really hear kind of very much at all. >> keep your head down -- >> all these rpgs were exploding everywhere. gunfire was going off, so you didn't know whether to get up and help or stay down or whether

to run or anything. >> bbc editor dragan petrovich operates a second camera as he, scott, and bbc correspondent john simpson try to get to safety. >> how's high eye? >> you're all bloody. >> i remember waiting for the next explosion to come in. at just at that moment, i realized my mother was still on the phone, that she had heard everything going on or whatever she could hear of people shouting and banging. and i remember just saying, "sorry, mom, i -- i can't talk right now. the americans have just bombed us." >> bbc security adviser craig somers is separated from the rest of the team in the blast. >> i was thinking, oh, my god, they're dead. they're dead. you know, it landed sort of -- i don't know, ten, 15 yards from us. it must have absolutely obliterated them. >> john? >> and then all of a sudden, up

they popped from behind a bank. >> fred, you okay? >> yes, we're fine, mate. >> the relief was like incredible because they were there, but the person i didn't see was cameron. >> cameron, the bbc's interpreter, is standing further from the team when the bomb hits. >> there's cameron lying down on the grass. >> he'd been thrown, or the americans and kurds had taken him to a little knoll where they piled up other people who were either dead or didn't look like they were going to make it. and they were working very hard to save his life. >> nothing i can do about that throat. >> still, scott and petrovich don't turn off their cameras, even as special forces caught in the bombing tend to scott's wounds. >> i don't think it's serious. there's some other guys -- >> we're going to go up in a second. >> scott's camera, alongside him in the grass, captures audio as

giles tries to comfort cameron. >> cameron -- >> he was barely conscious. you're going to be fine. >> it was one of those situations you feel you have to be there and tell someone they're going to be okay. >> cameron's put in a special forces vehicle and driven to a nearby hospital. his wounds are too grave, and he dies only hours after the attack. >> cameron was a really, really bright, smart, funny, intelligent guy. he was young, and he was ideal stick. he loved the idea of journalism. he loved the idea of the bbc. there's not that many weeks go by where i don't actually think about cameron and what happened to him. >> 44 people are injured, and 19 killed in what the u.s. military says is a tragic case of friendly fire. an investigation determines that a soldier on the ground called in their location as a reference point for the bombing of iraqi forces. but in the chaos of war, the bombers accidentally hit where he was standing with the american and kurdish forces and

the bbc news crew. >> i hadn't realized that fred had switched his camera on pretty much immediately after the bomb had landed. i didn't actually realize just how much he had recorded of the incident. >> when something like that does happen, you need to do your job. otherwise, the stark raving futility of having put yourself in a place like that to start with is just -- doesn't bear thinking about. [ shouting ] >> it's very important that journalists, television people, producer, cameramen do go to these places and record these things. because the easiest thing in the world is to try and censor what these conflicts are really like. >> oh, my god. coming up -- [ gunshots ] >> somebody was trying to kill the president of the united states. watch as these magnificent creatures take flight,

[ gunshots ] shots fired, and a terrifying moment in history is caught on camera. >> i was that close that i got blood going across the front of my lens. >> the president had gone to the washington hilton hotel -- >> march 31th, 1981. president ronald reagan is speaking at a union convention at the hilton hotel in washington, d.c. nbc photographer, shelly feelman, is outside the hotel covering the event. >> i was standing just about where i am now. that's the wall of the hilton hotel. >> feelman has been doing presidential coverage since he was unexpectedly thrown into it on his first day at nbc news, november 22, 1963. >> my first day on the job, it was supposed to be really quiet

and easy. and there was a veteran crew, and we were sitting in a restaurant. and they said, well, you know, it's an easy day today. we'll probably be going home early. and then they turned on the tv, and they announced that president kennedy was assassinated. the next thing i know, i was on a plane heading for dallas. >> two days later, while covering lee harvey oswald's jail transfer in dallas, feelman watches as jack ruby shoots and kills oswald. >> that was my initiation fee into into the news business. >> 17 years later, feelman is again expecting an easy day. >> and i said, well, we're gonna get the president coming out. and it's going to be a piece of cake. i -- i've never use that term again, piece of cake. >> feelman and abc news photographer hank brown set up their cameras at the rope line outside the hilton. a hotel photographer snaps this picture showing feelman next to the wall and brown to feelman's

left. neither photographer knows the blond man standing behind feelman's right shoulder or what he is about to do. moments after the photograph is taken, the president exits the hilton. >> mr. president? mr. president? >> the president turns, puts his hands out, and that's when i heard pop, pop, pop, pop. [ gunshots ] >> god! >> brown and feelman don't know if anyone has been injured or worse, but they have one goal -- keep their cameras focused on the president. >> i realized that the picture that i was shooting was history. somebody was trying to kill the president of the united states. >> a third camera covering the scene captures feelman and brown in the middle of the chaos as the secret service rush the president into the car. >> get down! >> it seemed like it was a lifetime, but everything was happening in the second.

the agents were running toward me. the other agent had his gun out. >> in the split second before the gunman is tackled, feelman captures a terrifying image. >> as soon as the president was pushed into the car, i turned, aimed the camera down -- >> right there. the lower right corner of feelman's footage, is the shooter and his gun pointed directly at the president's motorcade. >> god! oh! >> one of the agents hit him first, and then everybody piled on top of him. they grabbed him -- [ shouting ] they took him to the first police car, which was over here somewhere. [ sirens ] and the door was locked. [ sirens ] they dragged him to another car. >> get out of the way! >> they finally got him in. they zoomed off. >> back to the white house. back to the white house. rawhide is okay. >> at first, it's believed that

the president is unharmed. but while driving back to the white house, it's discovered that he is shot. >> roger. we want to go to the emergency room of george washington. >> one of the bullets ricochets off reagan's car and hits the president in the chest as he is pushed into the vehicle. the bullet is just one inch from his heart. he's rushed to the hospital and operated on. white house press secretary james brady, secret service agent tim mccarthy, and d.c. police officer thomas de la hante are also wounded and still outside the hotel. >> to see mccarthy, de la hante and brady stretched out like that was very painful. i was crying when i was covering the scene. >> brady exited the building with the president and stepped into the line of fire as the shooting began. he was shot in the head by the very first bullet fired.

>> i had may eye glued to a two-inch black and white screen, it's like watching a horror movie in a small version. >> but their job is to be the eyes and ears for a nation eager for information. >> i'm competitive. i'm a newsman. shock's over, shooting's over, do your job. >> this is an nbc news special report. >> we have just received videotape of the circumstances outside the washington hilton hotel. and here's president reagan waving. >> while the footage of the shooting airs on televisions across the country, feelman and brown continue working at the scene. they're also eyewitnesses to history. >> next thing you know, cameras are pointed at me, asking me, can you explain what happened? >> how far was he from the president? >> he was about ten feet from the president. he was in the press line. he penetrated the press line. the press covering the shooting

now becomes who the press are now taking pictures of. >> though the photographers didn't know until later, the man captured in the picture behind feelman is john hinckley jr., later identified as the shooter. and his proximity to feelman during the assassination attempt may have saved hinckley's life. >> the secret service agent who was here was going to shoot him. and i stepped in front of him. and he told me that later that i saved hinckley's life. and i looked at him and says, "well, thanks for being a little slow in thinking." >> hinckley is found not guilty by reason of insanity and placed in a psychiatric hospital. >> looking a bit pale and somewhat thinner, the president walked out with mrs. reagan -- >> the president suffers massive blood loss, but his surgery is successful, and he is back in the oval office only 12 days after the shooting. secret service agent mccarthy also recovers from his wounds. officers de le hante suffers

permanent nerve damage to his left arm. and press secretary brady is partially paralyzed and sustains a brain injury. brady devotes his life to fighting gun violence and goes on to pass the brady law, requiring federal background checks on gun buyers. both feelman and brown are nominated for emmy awards for the field coverage they recorded that day. feelman's footage with the unforgettable image of hinckley's gun wins. >> i never had time to be afraid for my own life. i never had time to even think about it. i knew what i had to do. it's my job. i was a newsreel cameraman. it was up to me to bring it home. coming up -- [ bleep ] >> i'm fixin' to get killed, dammit. no, sir, i'm not going to make it out of this one. you tell my son i love him. but first, a skier is buried alive.

a skier is caught in a fast-moving avalanche and buried alive. and a camera on his helmet records every second. >> to hear yourself in a situation where you're almost dying, it's really strange. >> february 28th, 2011. christopher carlson and some friends are skiing in the swiss alps. >> it was a beautiful day with blue skies and like half a meter of new, fresh powder. and we were skiing all day and having like one of my best ski days ever. >> instead of going down prepared slopes, the skiers are blazing new trails down untouched mountainsides. >> take on a bit more risk, but the powdered snow when it's, like, coming up your face, you're screaming, and it's great.

>> the skiers are heading home when they can't resist one last run. the first three go down the mountain and are waiting below for carlson. he turns on a go-pro camera attached to his helmet and skis down after them. but 25 seconds after he starts, the snow around him begins to give way under his feet. >> it was like being in a washing machine. i couldn't decide what was up and down. >> his friends below watch as he struggles to keep it together. >> feel like he fell 50 meters. and then he stops. so we think like, oh, hope he's okay. nothing -- nothing broke or something. and then the whole face just go. >> i just felt the snow like taking my feet away, and i started tumbling down the mountain and thinking, i have to get up. i have to do something. >> but there's nothing he can do.

he's engulfed, as the camera keeps recording. he's buried beneath the snow. >> the first few seconds was like i need to keep my hands in front of my mouth because that's what i read before. and i need to get some air and not get snow down to my lungs. >> carlson is able to move one hand, just enough to clear out the snow in front of his mouth. >> the rest of the body was like stuck in concrete. i couldn't move. i could barely breathe. >> his camera continues recording as he lays moaning and motionless in the snow. [ moans ] >> all these thoughts come, like are my friends also buried, is anyone still on the surface who can search for me or us? >> the avalanche stops before it

reaches his friends, and they watch in horror as carlson vanishes beneath it. they have no idea if carlson is dead or alive, but they know if they're going to rescue him, every second is precious. >> i have 10 or 15 more minutes before the oxygen would have been completely out. so i'm not sure i would have lasted for the ski patrol to come. >> his friend, robin iliason, is closest when carlson disappears. >> i was the first one on the scene so i started searching with my transceiver. >> the device sends and receives a digital signal to give their location. >> quite immediately, i got a signal. >> carlson's transceiver, buried with him, alerts his friends to the area where he is trapped, but the clock is ticking.

>> i'm starting to get a really heavy breathing. and then i realized i don't have that much time left, so then all these emotions started coming. [ screaming ] and that's when i start screaming, because now i know that i don't have that much time. [ screams ] but he's buried so deep, his screams don't help. [ screams ] >> we can see on the film that he's screaming and stuff. we couldn't hear anything of it. >> his friends dig furiously around the positive signal. and five minutes after he's buried, the snow in front of carlson's camera is pushed aside. >> yeah, okay. >> two seconds before my face got cleared of the snow, that

was the first time i -- i heard them or realized that i'm going to be saved. i'm okay. >> please. i want to get up. >> okay. >> it was a total relief. i've never felt that feeling before, of course. when i got up, one of my first questions was to anton, is it still filming? because i realized then that this should be really interesting to watch. >> but carlson isn't out of danger yet. he is stiff from the cold, so it's difficult to determine the extent of any injuries. and in order to get to a hospital, he has to first get down from the mountain. within minutes of being dug out, the ski patrol arrives on the scene. carlson's friends take his camera and continue recording as the ski patrol begins his elaborate rescue. >> no helicopter. >> no, no helicopter. >> i keep saying that i'm fine, i'm good.

i can ski down, because i didn't have the right insurance for helicopter rescue. but my friends talked me into have to go to hospital and get a proper examination. >> the mountain is too steep for the helicopter to land, so carlson has to be put in a sling that swings beneath the helicopter as it flies to flat ground. >> i take the camera myself and just film that because i thought it was really cool. >> carlson goes from buried deep beneath the snow to flying high above it. >> i wasn't injured at all. this is probably the weirdest situation that i am ever going to be in. first almost dying, then surviving, and hanging underneath the helicopter. like 15 minutes ago, i was skiing the most beautiful run in my life. coming up -- >> i am trapped and cannot move. please help me.

>> my math is evidently wrong. >> make a right instead of a left. we don't know it, but we're all going to a dead end. >> unsure of what lies ahead, wheeler begins narrating the tape for his family. >> we made a wrong turn. our military took us the wrong way. >> when the convoy hits the tigress river, they have two option -- stop and wait for reinforcements or drive back through the barrage of rocks. >> we're going back through hell. i just want you all to know that. we head back, and i'm worried to death. there's nobody on the street. i know it's not going to be good. that's when i say, we're fixin' to go through hell again. this is going to be one good video right here, boy. >> on the way back, the attackers put down their rocks and pick up their guns.

i've got it on video, by god! >> only three trucks behind wheeler. the driver in truck eight is shot. >> eight, going down -- >> i knew it was going bad then. >> we gotta get out of the kill zone. >> wheeler's camera captures the growing panic. >> jesus christ, help us all, lord. i got six and seven behind me. they're screaming at me to go, go, go, go. you know, everybody's on the radios hollering, wanting to get out of there. and i'm scared to death, just like everybody else is. [ gunfire ] >> the drivers try to keep moving and get out of harm's way, but shots fired at truck one derail the entire convoy. >> truck down. truck one's down. >> and his truck turns over. now everybody's stopped. and i almost rear-ended the humvee in front of me. >> but he never lets the camera go. >> truck five is stalled out. >> all the brakes was locked up on it.

i knew i was in trouble. >> go! go! >> i am -- truck five cannot move. please help me. >> wheeler is trapped inside his truck with no weapon to defend himself. [ gunfire ] and nowhere to run. >> move out of the way, if you can. >> i cannot move. >> truck five, move to the right. >> it would have been a death sentence for me to get out of that truck. fire everywhere. i'm taking fire. 10-4, come back. i could hear bullets hitting my truck from the back, the front -- i'm fixin' to get killed, [ bleep ]. >> hiding inside, wheeler listens helplessly while his colleagues around him also plead for help.

>> for the first time since the trip began, wheeler turns off his camera. >> right after i turned my camera off, that's when i get shot. it destroys my bone. i was bleeding. i was going to die if i didn't stop it. >> as wheeler lies bleeding in the back of his truck, a united states drone flying overhead records the violence taking place around him. >> they're running around sasha's body. they're kicking him and throwing big rocks at him. taking some of his stuff off his body. >> inside his truck, wheeler sends what he thinks will be his final radio dispatch. >> no, sir, i'm not going to make it out of this one. i said, you tell my son i love him. >> about 1:00 in the night, i woke up immediately, and there was just something told me to pray for preston, that he needed help. >> i'm shot. you know, i'm bleeding to death here, and i've got four men walking to my truck right now. they're fixin' to kill me.

and then helicopters show up. >> as the sound of the u.s. helicopters flying overhead fills the air, the attackers flee. and wheeler, convinced he is seconds from death, is put in a military humvee and taken to a helicopter to be transported back to camp anaconda. less than 20 minutes after he is shot, he turns his camera back on for one final message. >> it's me. i'm shot. >> wheeler is taken to the hospital at camp anaconda and treated for his bullet wounds. >> preston called me and told me that he had been shot. and i just went all to pieces. >> from my elbow to my shoulder, my bone's gone. bullets, you know, destroyed my bones -- like busted it up with a hammer. >> three of his friends and colleagues are killed. >> it was amazing to me that i made it out. i couldn't believe that i was here.

night as the violence escalates. [ gunfire ] he sees people shot with small pellets used for hunting birds. >> i film people who were injured by birdshot in their face, in their bodies. and most of them were covered in blood. >> it's too dark to capture the shooters on camera. so abdel rasak stays until daylight so that he can identify the people who were shooting at the protesters. [ gunfire ] it's a risky decision. he scans through the crowd, searching for the shooters. as soon as the camera focuses in on a man with a gun, the gunman raises the weapon and aims it directly at him. [ screams ] >> translator: i felt the

birdshot hit my eye, and i remember still trying to hold on to the camera and trying to hold myself together. >> his friend takes the camera and continue to record as abdel rasak is carried to doctors helping the wounded in the street nearby. >> even as i was injured on the ground, all my thinking was about the camera. i knew that i had shot some very important material. i knew that i had footage of the person that shot me so i was really worried the material would disappear. >> his body is riddled with birdshot, including his hand, his forehead, and his eye. but despite his injuries, abdel rasak is determined to get his camera back from his friend and continue recording the protest. >> translator: i got up from the field hospital and returned to him even though there was still a lot of blood on my face. all they had done was wiped some of it away. i went to him in the middle of the clashes and took the camera from him and told him, "no, i want to keep it. give it to me." i continued shooting, but i was

worried that the next shot, i would die and then the material could be gone. >> abdel rasak is determined to share his footage with the world. >> translator: i continued for about an hour or hour and a half, and then i left and uploaded the material on youtube so everyone could see it and so everyone could know who was wrong and who was right. >> viewers of his video identify the shooter, but it isn't until after the presidential election, a month later, that abdel rasak files a report with the prosecutors's office. no charges have ever been filed. although the birdshot remains in his eye, abdel rasak can see. and since the shooting, he quit his accountant job and works full time as a reporter and photographer for on tv, an egyptian news channel, where he continues to capture egypt's violence. [ screams ] coming up -- a sports photographer gets too close to the action.

a motorcycle and rider skid dangerously off a racetrack and fly straight at a photographer. >> could have died. i didn't see the people -- people caught up don't walk away from. >> may 6th, 2012. >> the starting grid -- >> the mce british superbike championship at alton park in england. the mce is an intense and competitive annual race where bikers speed around the track up to 200 miles per hour - >> right and left. >> hugging curbs and sometimes smashing into barriers.

>> already lost three riders. >> in this high-speed world, it only takes a split second for the riders to go from facing the finish line to facing death. >> if you're not crashing, you're not trying hard enough. >> but their lives are not the only ones on the line. >> at the time, you think, oh, this is a great shot. and you sort of lose the reality of a person here with a bike heading toward me. >> david smith is one of the many photographers spread out around the track to record every second of the fast-paced excitement. >> it was actually a quite bright day. so, i decided to put my coat over the viewfinder so that i could block out the sun. >> biker john kirkham and the rest of the riders get into position. >> the lights go out and the race begins and it's a 16 lapper here at alton park. >> a good start -- >> john kirkham -- >> i passed a few people. >> i was sort of dropping back. something wasn't quite right. >> cameras capture kirkham now in forth place struggling. >> had a big moment, then --

>> i couldn't quite work out what the problem was. >> the bikers are on their ninth lap around the track when kirkham loses control. >> from my position, i could see them coming under a bridge just around a bend. >> oh! >> saw one bike just slide and starts heading what i thought was to my left-hand side. >> it was kirkham -- >> kirkham and the bike fly across the track and slid into the grass. >> i thought, this isn't too bad, i'm not going to hit the barrier, i'm just going to slide across the grass and stop. but i didn't miss the barrier. >> kirkham is knocked unconscious, but his 363-pound bike continues toward smith and his camera. >> there was no fear time of the actual crash. it all happened so fast. >> the bike moved so quickly and with such force, it's hard to tell how smith survives the impact. but a closer look at the video shot from another camera across the track reveals what happens in the critical seconds of the

accident. >> the bike had so much energy it hit the barrier and went up into the air did a few somersaults. >> the jacket draped over smith's camera is blocking his peripheral vision, so he doesn't realize how much danger he's in. >> i'm still on the camera when the bike hit the crash bar area. just getting the pictures was all that was going through my head. >> while the crowd watches in horror, he continues recording. >> it was the explosion of the foam and the sponge of the barrier that made me react. >> with less than a second to spare, smith ducks out of the way, and the bike misses him. but while paramedics run toward the scene, smith, untouched, races back toward his camera. >> my instinct was to get back to the camera because there were other people watching the pictures. and i needed them to know that everything was okay. everything was okay. everything was okay. everything was okay.

>> is everybody all right? did it wipe out the camera?>> i? did it wipe out the camerdid it? >> i got under my coat and put the headphones on. all i could hear was noises in the outside orchestra. what's happened, is he okay, is he okay. i couldn't talk to anyone at the time so i just of nodding the camera, yeah, i'm okay. >> thankfully, it seems the cameraman sensibly ran, but he kept on filming -- >> smith records paramedics attending to an unconscious kirkham on the ground. >> the deceleration from 140 miles per hour to zero basically all your organs carry on going, and my brain, bridged the side of my skull. it bruised my brain. >> it's not until kirkham sees the video of the incident that he realizes the danger his accident put people smith in as well. >> he was brave to stay there that long. everybody said it was brave and lucky people. i think he was braver than me. >> the actual impact and the bike going over me and me getting out of the way is down to split seconds. the fear didn't come until afterwards and that night when

you think, crikey, that was close. >> that's a quick one. \s defying the rules. >> there's no greater adrenaline rush. >> there's something wrong with me. >> defying the odds. >> it's just in my dna. >> i have a lot of fun and take a lot of physical abuse at the same time. >> even defying gravity. >> well, i think i would jump out of an airplane. >> when i do a big jump, anything can happen. >> it's all in a day's work for the extreme athlete. >> what we are doing is really a different sport altogether. it is extreme and it is dangerous. >> and in sports like these, you can't reach such extremes without risking your very life.
