World's Most Amazing Videos
I caught a few minutes of this while I was flipping through the channels.
They had one video about a polar bear that was resting on a rocky outcropping about 20 feet above water. Apparently, this was a problem, so some rescuers sedate the bear and then try to lower it into the water, but then it slips out of the harness and into the water, wherein it can't swim because it's sedated. I guess I just didn't get why the situation required attention; it seemd like the rescuers were only there to clean up the mess they made.
Then, after showing the polar bear being rereleased into the wild a week after the idiotic rescue effort, it goes to a commercial, saying that the next video is about an oil tanker about to erupt in a "fireball of flame." Who writes this stuff?
Edit: And now they just showed a video of an old woman who decided to get out of her car without putting it in "park" and was subsequently run over by her own vehicle. I'd say it was lucky that she survived, but I don't think that luck plays into it when a contestant for the Darwin Award survives their ordeal.
