hi, everybody. i'm beth troutman. we've put together the day's best video, and let's start talking about them -- "right this minute." a crowd on the ground is suddenly realizing that plane is coming towards us at an ed credible rapid rate. what happened when the laughter turns to fear. [ gunfire ] a guy outside a mall hears a gunman. >> firing off 50 rounds. >> now a shopper trapped inside reveals a scene of panic. >> everyone was running as fast as they could through the mall. like, people were falling over. it was mayhem. >> a sports car driver hits the track for a race. >> everything was going so far so good. >> but only --

>> for so long. >> [ bleep ] -- [ bleep ]. >> and a zoo visitor comes across -- >> a very friendly elephant. >> why this meet and greet was more meet than greet. >> oh! >> whoa! going to take you guys to germany for an air show. we're actually inside a 28 awe notice, oh, look. sky divers jumping out of the back of this plane. all part of the air show. it's not the sky divers making this video go viral. it's what happened after the sky divers leave the plane. >> and they're gone. the pilot goes into an intentional nosedive. >> why is he doing that? kind of making the skydivers, trying to beat them down to the drive. >> all part of the performance. he holds this nosedive quite some time until he gets incredibly close to this tree. >> get even closer to the ground? >> uh-huh. >> wow. >> oh.

man. >> that is insane! he has to be an amazing pilot to be able to do this. >> he's coming in at a sharp turn -- for a landing. >> holy cow. >> his wings looks like they could be scraping off the ground at that point. >> we've got footage of this from the ground from the spectator's point of view. watch. >> ooh. >> oh! steven was right. it looked like that wing almost was going to scrape the ground! >> now, you ask if the goal was to beat the sky divers down. it may have been christian. as he slows down, he make as right, and then watch what you see coming in the distance. >> that is awesome. just one day after the tragedy at sandy hook elementary in connecticut, this -- [ gunfire ]

>> this is a story you may have heard about by now. a shooting in newport beach, california, at the fashion island mall. you're hearing a man in the parking lot firing off what was learned to be 50 rounds into the air. >> and what's so crazy, is the guy who is shooting this video had his wife and daughter inside the mall as he's hearing these shots. he writes in his youtube description in the look at the very center of the screen, right beneath the little red triangle to the left of these palm trees, you can see the shooter. that guy right there. looks like that's the shooter in the parking lot. after all this, 42-year-old marcus gurrolla was taken into custody. police say he reloaded several times. they were able to apprehend this guy without any fight. >> firing 50 rounds up in the air could have come down and hurt somebody during the holiday season where the mall is packed. >> sure. everybody was on edge, obviously, after what happened at sandy hook.

only one person was injured, minor injuries from this. the police chief believes the motive for this, the guy was unhappy with his life. this was a way for him to vent his problems, firing this gun in the parking lot. inside the mall, a complete lockdown. alison posted on facebook as it was going on. there's ban shooting at fashion island, sam davis and friends are locked in the dressing room. if you know anything, please post it. we are in the dark. we spoke to alisso via skype to see what the situation was inside. >> everyone was running as fast as they could through the mall. people were falling over each other. crying. first 10, 15 minutes, no idea what was going on. iowa nowhere near harm's way, at the same time, not knowing what to do, where to go or what the

safest place is, it was very -- i was very shashg ken. soon as the vinyl doors were lifted at nordstrom, everyone flew out there. so anxious to get out of there and go home. [ gunfire ] and cheetahs live at the cleveland zoo. zookeepers say for a cheetah to get up to full speed, that need about 600 feet. they don't have that at the zoo. the people at the houston racetrack said, hey, don't have horses here right now. bring them on down and let them rung free, and they did. they tied a stuffed rabbit to a little machine. brought the cheetahs and their bet dog tagi and let them run i. think speed up the rabbit. the cheetahs will catch up to it. >> i thought it was great. >> let them go back to natural instincts, hunting for their prey, which they don't get to

do. >> i love watching cheat tas run. you watch the back leg come out in front of the front leg. that's how they get their speed. we move to thailand where we meet a very friendly elephant. and when i say friendly, i mean friendly. that young man is arthur. >> oh, this is good. >> oh!

man is kicking and kneeing, and punching the bus driver. apparently the bus driver had come to the end of the route, and asked that the passenger, 27-year-old samuel alan smith, to get out of the bus. apparently that made him very angry, and he started attacking the driver leaving him way broken nose, black eyes and cuts on his face. >> oh, goodness. >> apparently working at a very prestigious restaurant in sydney and he also comes from a very well-known winemaker family in california in napa valley that owns the smith ma droen winery. >> did he drink, like two bottles of wine before this? >> reports say he had fallen asleep on the bus after celebrating that he'd been working there about six months. >> this is basically the result of a party and a nap on a bus, and then he takes all of that out on this poor bus driver?

>> the bus driver, who apparent will had been assaulted 11 times, and after this he finally retired. smith was sentenced to jail and while in court was embarrass bawd he was trying to hide himself behind a beanie, blond wig and embarrassed too. kniss this is not appropriate behavior. a camera catching motorcycle action. guess where this one is heading? >> a couple of rolls there. >> see what the camera catches and survives, next. don't know how they got in the birds nest. >> she seem to be quite cozy. >> moving into the treehouse on "right this minute."
