beth troutman, happy monday to you, we've got brand-new videos, "right this minute." >> yee ha -- a joyride with cops in hot pursuitnd a camera catch
4:01 pm
it is all, from the point of vi of >>ot the story behind the "dukes of hazard" style getaway. rescuers try to reunite baby raccoons separated from their mother. >> they rely on mother's instincts. >> see how this masked mama swooped in and got her babies back. >> katy perry, if you're seeing this. >> we meet the man behind the viral video. >> you're in treatment right now? >> right now i'm in the hospital getting chemotherapy in my veins. plus the mother of all waterspouts is a beach buzz-kill. and doing shots of hot wax. >> i want to be clear, it's real hot wax. >> oh, it's real -- stupid. here at "right this minute" we're all about videos, so lets get to our first video, and nick has it. >> of all the videos we pore
4:02 pm
over every day, this is a police high-speed pursuit from the point of view of the car being chased. this is a young female passenger who has got her cell phone camera rolling as this car is speeding down highway 86, in north central wisconsin, she sticks the camera out the window. you clearly see the cop car in pursuit. lights and sirens going. unbelievable. >> what is she saying the whole time? it sounds like she thinks it's funny. >> the only thing said at the beginning of the video is this -- >> yee ha! >> we spoke to the state police in wisconsin and the price county sheriffs department where we believe this took place. both agencies say we don't know anything about this yet. this video has less than 100 hits, it was just posted online. if you look at the video closely and you freeze it, you can catch
4:03 pm
a glimpse of the driver's face. no identification as to who that is. the uploader of the video titled this -- "f the police." >> no word if they got away, if they crashed. the video ends abruptly about three minutes in. >> and it's pretty brazen of her to hold the phone out of the window and film the police as if this is some kind of weird prank and they're proud of themselves for it. this is disturbing on so many levels. >> you can bet we'll keep looking at this and update the story as soon as we get more information. mother nature had a little fun off the coast of latvia. check out this waterspout. one of the most well-defined waterspouts i've ever seen. >> how deep does that go into the water? is there fish under the water going -- help! do they get sucked up? i want to know.
4:04 pm
>> i don't think it's flicking fish. this is what's known as a fair-weather waterspout. meaning it starts toward the base of the water and moves up. toward the clouds. it's not surrounded by high winds and thunderstorms and lightning. this video was shot by oldest crustens. >> what was that name again? >> oldest crustens. it says -- >> what? [ inaudible ] >> he says, the author's name, oldest crustens. >> whatever. >> also, aldus pinkus was involved. here's another shot of the same waterspout. this is more from the shore. and you see the cloud formation this is a perfectly formed waterspout. this is an area where the baltic sea and the gulf of riga come together. doesn't it make you want to take
4:05 pm
a boat out there and jump through it back and forth like a sprinkler? >> no. >> i'm curious to know what it would feel like. >> i want to hold a net out there and catch some fish. you do not want to mess with this bus driver. >> you all going to get off. i get paid to drive. what can i say! >> this bus driver is in san francisco. >> are you done? sure you're done. >> the bus driver standing up in the black hat, he's telling the guy in the black hat that's seated, you better correct your attitude. >> do it again, i swear to god, everybody getting off. i won't be [ bleep ]. >> i love that he doesn't care. he is going to keep the control of his bus. >> you understand? >> we good. >> you think i'm playing? >> no, we good. >> you think i'm playing? that means he's serious. the guy finally decides, you know what, maybe i should get
4:06 pm
off the bus. >> hey -- i'm getting off. >> the guy almost looks scared to get off the bus. but then the bus driver has something to say. >> welcome to muni. people, i apologize, welcome to muni. >> he was very close to crossing the line, i think, by his actions and his behavior. he was getting pretty heated. i'm glad he didn't take it any further. i wouldn't want to see a guy lose his job. >> are you done? sure you're done? >> this guy is taking care of the rest of his passengers. maybe he wasn't great with this one guy. because he lost his cool on this one guy. >> do it again, i swear to god, everybody getting off. >> he didn't cross the line, but he stepped up to it. >> people, i apologize, welcome to muni. it's a wonder what would cause a plan to want to do this. you see a train attendant run over to him before the attendant
4:07 pm
actually started running to him. you do see that the guy was throwing pebbles back onto the platform. the guy jumps back onto the platform. but then they start fighting with each other. at one point, the man that was on the track starts taking his shirt off. and continues to physically confront this attendant. finally, the attendant walks away and the man then just kneels on the ground and he starts collecting his stuff, fuzzing around with the bag. it looks like the attendant is trying to go get help. because obviously by himself, he can't contain this guy. then the guy just lays down on the platform on the other side of the yellow line. you're not supposed to be on. but this is probably my favorite part of the video. because you see an older man just walk up to this guy and just very sternly motioning to the guy with his hand, who of that way. i almost picture this to be this old-school, no-nonsense kind of old man. like come on, dude, you're acting like a kid, get out of the way.
4:08 pm
at one point he reaches down for ey's beltto pull.uy breaks freey keeps pointing to him to move away. the guy grabs him by the arm and pulls him away. unfortunately the video ends right there and we can't tell what happens. but it looks like the guy was taking control of the situation. >> this man had probably been a father and this guy is acting like a 2-year-old. i think his fatherly instincts just kicked in. i don't care if he's 40 years old, i'm going to treat him the way he's acting and i'm going to get him out of the way. this girl wants to get you all drunk. a drinking party with a huge drinking game. it's also a concert. >> i think she's talented when you hear her music. see what this thing is all about, next. and how about a little russian dance cam. >> some guy tries to play frogger in busy traffic. >>
