A volcano in New Zealand is spewing steam and sediment out of a hot lake. There has been a big increase in activity at the site in recent weeks. That has experts worried because the area is a popular tourist destination and the volcano could blow with little or no warning.
A surveillance camera was rolling during this dramatic rescue at a Spanish train station. You can see a woman on the platform faints, falling onto the tracks. With a train approaching, an off-duty police officer jumped down and dragged the woman to safety. Other passengers managed to signal the train operator to stop before approaching the platform area. The woman who fell made a full recovery.
No mountain, no problem. These ice climbers scaled a frozen silo in Iowa. Some of the climbers were doing it for credit at a local college.
Others were just in it for the fun.
