hello, everybody. i'm beth troutman. are you ready for the best videos of the day? we've got them right here, "right this minute." a u.s. marine's old youtube video takes on a new, sinister feel. >> we're trained to kill. we're trained that death is okay. >> it's startling now to listen to this video. >> now that the marine is accused of gunning down his own wife. we've got the story. iraq is hit by heavy flooding, but one guy is like i need to get around. what happens when push comes to shovel. it's touted as a sure-fire way to stop -- >> the crying baby! >> how to pull the trick a lot of people swear by. >> yeah, that's it. that's it.
2:01 pm
and a bear decides to declutter a backyard pond. >> i'm burneding wondering if h looking for salmon, like there's got to be a salmon in my. my frustrations in iraq were having to watch over 50 of my friends die, having to kill people, having to kill a child who tried to kill me. i'm a marine and we're trained to kill. we're trained that death is okay. >> what we're hearing in this video is a former marine talking about experiences serving two tours in iraq as a u.s. marine and the effects that the war had on him. >> before i went in, i was pretty much like a hippy. i was very laid back. but anger was there, it was just very hidden. after my training, it definitely amplified and got worse. >> now, this video was from 2010. it was for the elm brook church. ben goes on to talk about how
2:02 pm
the church helped him recover. on december 24th, ben's wife, jennifer, a police officer in the milwaukee area, was shot and killed while she was on duty and it's ben sebina who is now facing charges for her death. he told police that he was stalking his wife for days and he shot her multiple times. it's startling now to listen to this video from 2010 and in it he talks about how it was jen that helped him sort of quell his anger. >> my friends and i would go on the internet and send some pictures back home. so i used myspace at the time. on myspace i found a girl that i used to go to high school on there with and every day we kept on writing to each other, e-mailed back and forth, if not two or three of them a day. >> this is so chilling, so haunting to hear him talk about how he was trained as a marine to kill. and then to see him speak so lovingly about this woman that you now says that he has killed. what must have been going on in
2:03 pm
his brain. >> and this video from tmj, we see benjamin sebina wheeled into the courtroom looking quite different. >> he looks just like a shell of a person. to russia! >> yay. >> where you never know what's going to jump in front of your path. the first video i've got for you, a very busy roadway. there's a busy road to your right, traffic back and forth. the car looks like he's trying to get around the traffic, but look out. this whole thing is confusing. i have no idea which way to go, who's going which way, it's all a mess. >> look again and that big, white delivery truck seems to be going a little too fast towards the car we're riding in. he loses control a little bit, swerves, clips one car and crashed into two trucks parked. but go over to an even crazier what was that. dash cam at night. maybe a little snow off to the side but the roads appear to be
2:04 pm
clear. but brake lights up ahead. careful, what is that? what is that? bam! is that a horse? that's a horse completely out of control, scared, running down the road. watch it again and it looks like the horse had some sort of carriage-towing equipment still attached to it. you know those rods that attach to the carriages the horse holds? >> it looks like he broke free and just had that piece hanging and kept on going. >> if you're the driver, that's not what you expect to come heading at you. >> what do you do in that situation? what's the protocol? if you see a horse running at you down the highway, what do you do? >> he got out to try to exchange insurance information, but the force just kept going. >> that was a hit and run! there's some crazy weather around the world. let's start in western australia where these folks caught something extraordinary on their video phone. >> that was right in front of them. you rely see the lightningit

2:06 pm
obviously some sort of important document that he's sweeping dry as he's swimming along here. >> he's probably the owner of one of those cars and went to get some of the papers out of the glove department. >> i don't know why you'd want to swim in those waters. who only knows what's down there. >> lots of videos from iraq of how much flooding and devastation from days and days of rain. there's a plumber in colorado springs, colorado, that shows up and does work even if you don't want him to. >> the plumber is a little odd, though, because the plumber is a black bear. >> what is he working in there? >> this is a decorative pond. suddenly this bear started appearing and getting in their decorative pond as a cooling pool. >> he thought it was the reverse jacuz jacuzzi. instead of getting warm, he wanted to cool off. >> you can see this is a small little decorative pond.
2:07 pm
this black bear thought it's not quite big enough. there's some pesky little obstructions in there. i'm going to do some plumber work and maybe some electrical work and make this a better pool for myself. >> oh, my gosh, he's pulling the wire out. >> watch as he gets the entire thing. he pulls it out. >> that's funny. he's like this thing is totally ruining my groove here. it's jabbing me in the leg when i'm trying to kick back and relax down there. >> and it's like, you know, i don't like those bubbles. they bother me. i don't like the noise. he wants it quiet and peaceful. >> this isn't the only obstruction that's bothering this bear. now that he's dealt with the equipment and the wire and getting things out of the way, he goes for more. >> geez! >> is that more of the liner? >> it's part of the lining. >> oh, my goodness. >> you know what i'm wondering, if he's looking for salmon. like there's got to be a salmon in here. a look at what it's like to
