Caught on Camera

- Season 2

(2012)

Damage on a massive scale! Huge structures crash to the ground, reduced to rubble in seconds; trains demolish trucks in their path; houses crumble; a factory erupts, and fire rains down from the sky. In this hour, stories of chaos - survival - and courage, and they are all caught on camera!

Amazing action...unbelievable rescues: firefighters who demonstrate courage, any time, any place; acts of bravery from everyday heroes; and nerves of steel in the face of imminent danger. And it's all Caught on Camera!

Sometimes the best-laid plans can go awry, leading to the worst kind of day possible: On a picture perfect afternoon for skydiving, one jumper ends up hanging on for dear life; at a Kentucky gas station, a routine fill-up, flares-up; in Texas, one tow job turns perilous, while another one "goes south" in the snowy northeast; and animals can have horrible days too -- rush hour on a freeway is always bad, but for a tiny dog it's life-threatening. These are the stories... of ordinary days that turn into very bad ones.

Cameras are rolling all day, everyday -- and you'd be surprised what they catch... Unlikely thieves, heroic bystanders, and downright brazen criminals. In this hour, a man chases a woman into a building -- by smashing his pick up through the doors! Another guy drops in... unannounced. And a strip mall casino robbery is foiled when a security guard breaks free -- and opens fire. It's hard to get away with a thing -- when the footage tells it all.

Suckerpunched -- caught off guard: one commuter thinks another commuter is talking too loud on her cell phone -- so she takes matters into her own hands; a hot-tempered liquor store patron goes from impatient -- to out of control; a convenience store break-in on four wheels -- forces a young clerk to run for his life; and a guy walks into a bar -- with a chainsaw!

Sometimes, life comes at us so fast. It could be a freak explosion, a raging fire, or a very bad day at the big top. These are the events that happen in the blink of an eye -- situations that can force people to make split-second decisions... moments that mean the difference between life & death... and rides that can make your heart skip a beat. In this hour, monumental decisions that make the jump from paralyzing fear - to the most triumphant moment of a lifetime.

A good time can turn ugly in a hurry, when thousands of people find they have no way out: panic consumes a Chicago nightclub packed to four times its capacity; a soccer game goes from confrontation...to total chaos, and what happens next is a shock even to the players; and when a concert lets out, the crowd is trapped in a suffocating crush.

Defiant...dangerous...and desperate: They are suspects who won't go down without a fight. Whether riding down the road in a fiery truck, or jumping off a bridge, each, in their own way, defied the rules, clashed with police...and paid the price.

Taken by force ... held against their will. In this hour - hostages, thrust into terrifying life and death situations: a dramatic attempt by US Special Forces to save an American hostage in Iraq; an eight-hour standoff ends in a burst of gunfire; children trapped inside a bus, and forced on a chase through the streets of Miami by a desperate man; and fifty-two Americans held captive for more than a year.

Every now and then, we come across exceptional moments- when the 'normal routine' becomes anything but...when the day leaves us battered, tossed around, and falling flat on our face! Moments when we can't believe what we're seeing, or who we're seeing! And moments we never see coming!

Innocent bus passengers...dodge a barrage of bullets; an airborne race car...flies directly at a cameraman; a pilot runs out of fuel and crash lands...in the Pacific; powerful tornadoes...target a small town, leaving devastation in their path; and a terrorist's bomb blows up a bar. In this hour, unwilling participants fight for survival, and it's all Caught on Camera!

Any time...any place...when mother nature and man collide, disaster can happen. From raging flood waters...to devastating earthquakes: unexpected...extreme...and breathtaking moments that reveal the wonder - and power - of nature.

When you're in the danger zone -- you'd better get out of the way-- fast! A landslide terrifies a small town in Italy. A sinkhole swallows a street in Hollywood...and tons of rock threaten the lives of workers in Tennessee. In this hour - caution...hazards ahead!

When it comes to viral videos, seeing isn't always believing. Fantasy football feats...treacherous trick shots...parking pandemonium...breathtaking biking...insane inventions. Join us as we investigate some of the most unbelievable things ever Caught on Camera!

Terrifying, dangerous, explosive situations and split second dilemmas: a house on fire, a car out of control, a downed sight-seeing plane, and an abduction in broad daylight. In this hour, witnesses must decide whether or not to intervene - at their own risk.

These are people who put pedal to the metal...and smash-up hard! When you're out on the road, danger lurks around every curve. In this hour, a pileup that makes your blood run cold, the happy hour from hell...and a racecar that takes a terrifying turn off the side of a mountain! When weather and wheels clash...and drivers have a need for speed...you'd better brace for impact!
