Dramatic Ice Rescue Caught on Tape
A sledding excursion turned into a rescue operation after a man fell into a frozen lake in Wrightwood, Calif.
The incident was caught on tape as one person after another tried to save the man only to slip on the ice themselves.
The incident was caught on tape as one person after another tried to save the man only to slip on the ice themselves.
A crowd gathered on shore, frantically screaming for help.
After five minutes, nearly a dozen people were in the water while others throw ropes and inner tubes to no avail.
Mickey Herman pulled double duty. You can hear him calling for a rope to help in the rescue efforts all the while capturing the ordeal on camera.
"When the people started going through the ice, it was just total panic. You saw people taking their belts off. It was just total chaos and out of control. We saw that poor guy, the first one to go in, it was obvious he didn't know how to swim," he said. "We thought that might be it. We wouldn't see him again. Fortunately he came back up."
Nine minutes later, the man who first fell in along with all of his would-be rescuers managed to make it out of the water.
All of them are doing just fine.
Real-life Fruit Ninja is a messy masterpiece
What do you get when you combine a razor sharp sword, a husky samurai wannabe, a farmer’s market worth of fruit and a slamming dubstep jam? Viral video gold, of course.
It’s real-life Fruit Ninja, and it’s awesome.
Created by Youtube maestro Scott Winn (one half of dubstep duo Scott and Brendo), the video brings the Fruit Ninja fantasy -- slicing and dicing flying pieces of fruit before they hit the ground -- to life in glorious slo-mo. It gets bonus points for accuracy, too, as the swordsman is dressed exactly like Fruit Ninja’s merchant character Gutsu. He even avoids bombs. Eat your heart out, Gallagher.
Launched back in 2010, Fruit Ninja is one of the biggest mobile hits of all time. Over 300 million copies have been downloaded across iOS and Android devices, and versions can be played everywhere from Facebook to Xbox 360’s Kinect.
Winn’s clearly got a love for slo-mo videos, as his past work includes gems like Cute Kittens Fly in Slow Motion to Hip Hop Dubstep and Slip n’ Slide Launches People Into Kiddie Pools.
