day. you see a guy jump out of a plane. he sails over kind of flat land. it looks like nothing could possibly go wrong. the instructor floats towards the drop zone, an open field. the only object in sight, a trailer used to pick up the jumpers. it was like the moth to the flame. he was just drawn to that trailer. it was like, come on. there s a whole field. really? he s going to hit that? hit it, he does. the skydiver injures his arm and eventually is amputated. but it hasn t stopped him from sky diving again. i ve never been skydiving. it must be that great to make it worth risking another limb. or he s crazy. or both. a cameraman captures the shot of a lifetime, but does he live to see it? april 2012.
against uc davis claiming the university used excessive force to break up the demonstration. in april 2012, an independent task force concludes that the pepper spraying incident should and could have been prevented. the police chief has since resigned. i think the pepper spray incident will definitely have an effect on how police interact with students, and how they deal with similar issues in the future. coming up, two old-timers from the gridiron attempt to settle an old score. and, an unbelievable sight when two whales breach just feet from the surface. they ve never seen anything like it. i m beth. and i m michelle. and we own the paper cottage. it s a stationery and gifts store. anything we purchase for the paper cottage goes on our ink card. so you can manage your business expenses and access them online
