This guy grabbed his camera just in time to capture the moment severe storm winds blew a large tree over in his neighborhood. The tree landed on some power lines, causing sparks to fly (and no, not the good kind). Thankfully, everyone was OK — but what a crazy thing to witness right in your own front yard.

Speaking of trees, a man was doing some trimming when a branch swung back toward him, knocking him out of the tree and onto the ground. Luckily, it looks like the guy's alright — but yikes! That was one heck of a fall.

Now this is what we call risky business! You may remember Jason Clark, who we recently featured attempting a point to point swim. This time, he's staying above the ice while on a frozen lake in Utah. He wanted to see what would happen if he jumped on the ice, and the impact ended up creating a large crack that stretched as far as the eye (and camera!) could see. In this next video from ViralHog, a lumberjack is trimming a tree's branches in Canada when all of a sudden it practically disintegrates! View Now

Uh-Oh, Watch Out For Those Bridges!

In Russia, some people are having a blast on a boat while cruising down a canal. As the boat approaches a low bridge, a girl stands up at the wrong moment and...Wham! That had to hurt. Hopefully, she's okay, but she might be feeling that one in the morning. Over in China, a pleasure boat is drifting down a flooded river. Heavy rainfall has caused the water levels to rise so high, that the boat is now unable to make it underneath the bridge up ahead. Prepare for impact in 3...2...1! Miraculously, the only person inside made it out okay, but we can't say the same for the boat... View Now

Swimming This Close To A Whale Is A Once-In-A-Lifetime Experience

Maybe the whale was just as curious to see them as they were to see it. Either way, what an unforgettable experience! View Now
