Most police officers work hard to keep us safe, but as these dashcam videos show, there
are still some situations that even law enforcement are not ready to handle . . .
13. In December of 2017, just a week before Christmas, this man was busy impersonating
a police officer and pulling over numerous innocent citizens. He had fake lights on his
car and even had a dashcam to record himself while on this massive ego trip.
The person on the hood has no idea that they are being stopped, searched and handcuffed
by a man with absolutely no affiliation with law enforcement. Once his hands are behind
his back, this poor innocent person is at the complete mercy of a stranger.
Police in Tucson, Arizona have never revealed what happened to the man next, but he appears
to be led into the back of the impersonator’s vehicle with his hands cuffed. I can only
imagine what sort of terrible activities happened from there and I hope he made it out okay
. . .
12. Police in Louisville, [“Louie-vil”] Kentucky [“Ken-tuck-kee”] are conducting
a late-night stop for a traffic violation at 3:30 a.m. Everything seems relatively normal
until they hear a muffled scream coming from the trunk. Arms drawn, they pop the trunk
only to find a bound man inside.
Police questioned the man and learned more about his story. Shawn Bloemer [“Blow-mer”]
was working the night shift at a Circle K gas station when four crazed maniacs jumped
him at random. They roughed him up badly and then stuffed him in the trunk of his own car.
By the time police had pulled them over, Shawn had been in the trunk for four hours and was
passing in and out of consciousness. I shudder to think how easily this could have
happened to any one of us, and what they probably would have done with him that night had the
cops not intervened.
11. A police officer in Newcastle, Oklahoma [“Oak-la-home-a”] is patrolling the highway
one afternoon when he feels a change in the atmosphere – everything feels still and
way too calm. There’s not a single bird singing or even a hint of breeze.
As the swirling skies begin to darken overhead and the rain starts to pour, the officer realizes
that a tornado is forming. He’s much too close to escape. There’s not much he can
do now except for park and pray.
He’s eventually forced to drive in reverse when the tornado comes towards him and swallows
a building whole just to his right.
Reports of downed powerlines and flying debris flood his radio as the tornado blasts through
the town. All this brave officer can do is follow in the wake of the tornado and assist
survivors however he can. By the time the treacherous weather passed, dozens of lives
had been lost.
10. A police officer named Adam Brunswick is the only officer patrolling Spooner, Wisconsin
[“Wis-con-sin”] when he makes this startling discovery.
A child in a yellow shopping cart is speeding out of the Dollar General Store parking lot
and heading directly into traffic. Officer Brunswick knows that there is no safe
way to stop the cart before it reaches the road, so he puts on his emergency lights and
parks in the middle of the busy highway to stop traffic. He then bravely rushes out of
his car and grabs the child before any harm is done.
As the mother would later explain, she was loading another child in the car when her
shopping cart had slipped away on its own with her infant child inside. She’s in tears
and unable to properly thank the officer for saving her child’s life.
9. This dashcam footage reveals a somber conversation between a police officer and a man who has
made a serious mistake that can never be taken back.
On New Years’ Eve, this impaired driver in Canadian County, Oklahoma took the lives
of two innocent drivers while going well over 100 miles per hour.
Craig Maker has been charged with two serious felonies that could very well place him in
prison for life. Records indicate that this is his fifth D U I arrest. He has not been
sentenced yet and clearly shows remorse in this video. After seeing this video, let me
know how long you would give him behind bars if you were the judge.
8. Dashcam footage from Gautier shows this police officer getting the surprise of a lifetime.
Giant clouds are brewing overhead when all of the sudden a fiery streak of lightning
strikes less than a quarter-mile away without warning.
The bolt is so bright that the police officer nearly goes blind. He pulls off the road and
locates the site of the blast, where he discovers a smoldering chunk of cement that’s still
smoking. My question is what caused the lightning bolt
to literally catch fire like that. I’ve seen lightning strikes in other dashcam videos
and they never involved fire. Apparently it didn’t hit a power generator or a powerline,
so if you can explain this visual phenomenon, then please let me know.
7. A South Wales [“Whales”] police helicopter is flying 1,000 feet above the Bristol [“Bris-stole”]
Channel when its thermal camera detects a perfectly round sphere in the distance.
The pilot quickly radios in the visual disturbance to ground control, but they can’t seem to
find anything matching the description on their radar equipment. That’s when the pilot
realizes he can’t actually see the sphere with his own eyes. Only the thermal camera
can. Maybe this was a camera malfunction, or maybe
this circular object has some sort of advanced cloaking properties. Either way, there’s
been no suitable explanation for this perplexing [“per-plex-ing”] sighting. And here’s
the weirdest part: when the pilot zooms in for a closer look, the sphere opens up into
what could very well be some sort of free-roaming vortex. If this really is a portal, then who
knows what’s on the other side.
6.
A police officer in Hamilton Township, New Jersey is doing neighborhood patrols when
a bright white light suddenly streaks across the sky. This aerial fireball was noticed
by hundreds of other locals as well. It could just be me, but I feel like there’s been
an increase in meteorite sightings over the past few months. What exactly this could mean,
if anything, I’ll leave up to you to decide.
5. A deputy in Pinellas [“Pine-nellas”] County, Florida [“Flor-rid-a”] is sitting
in the median checking for speeders when suddenly an aircraft passes by way too close overhead.
You can tell from how the plane unsteadily wobbles that the pilot has completely lost
control. A second deputy’s dashcam catches another angle of the plane’s descent as
it falls towards the ground.
The two officers race over to the scene and find a path of fallen trees and twisted metal
strewn in the road. They block off the road and call emergency medical services.
As it turns out, this was the personal aircraft of a Major League Baseball player named Roy
Halladay [“Hal-la-day”]. An autopsy revealed multiple intoxicants in the athletes’ system
while operating the plane.
4. It’s a scorching hot summer day in Los Angeles when police stop a suspicious man
for questioning. He quickly gives the officer a name and a good reason for being out here
by himself.
Robert Smith says that he is working for his brother’s roofing company and staying with
him at a hotel. He jogs 12 miles a day no matter what, which is why he’s out here
in 113-degree weather. There’s just one problem . . .
The suspicious officer radios dispatch and tries to match Robert Smith’s features with
those of the escaped prisoner. He compares eye colors, tattoos, facial hair and other
personal identifiers.
Despite all of these matches, the officer completely buys his roofing story and decides
to let him go.
Later the officer would discover that Robert Smith is actually Richard Lee McNair, the
escaped convict he was looking for. The man has escaped from prison two other times – one
time he actually escaped by mailing himself out in a box. Richard has since been caught
and is serving a life sentence for taking another man’s life with a firearm. On that
day, however, he was simply the convict who got away.
3. A New Jersey police officer is making a routine traffic stop late at night on a poorly
lit road. He starts to head back towards his car to run the license, but then he spots
something out of the corner of his eye and demonstrates some impressive reflexes.
The officer skillfully rolls away from a moving car just in time to avoid being flattened.
I’m really surprised the officer was able to react so quickly with a belt full of heavy
equipment, but then again, his adrenaline probably kicked in before he even fully knew
what was going on. Props to this officer for having such a fast
reaction time. Hopefully the city puts some streetlights up soon for better visibility
in the future.
2. When a quick-thinking officer responds to a call of a burning vehicle in Glenn Heights,
Texas, he knows exactly what to do. The car is in danger of catching the nearby restaurant
on fire, so he pulls up and takes care of the situation fast and efficiently.
The brave officer takes his life into his own hands and bumps the car into the parking
lot, away from the building. The vehicle could have exploded at any time with enough force
to cover him in flames and piping-hot debris.

1. This police dashcam was taken in a quiet neighborhood in South Jersey. Officers and
gas line workers were trying hard to find a reported gas leak somewhere in the area,
but sadly they were not able to find it in time to prevent this from happening. . .
Fifteen people were caught in the blast. Most frightening of all, this ordinary neighborhood
seems no different than anywhere else . . . which means none of us are totally safe.
