0:00:57 > 0:01:03Hi, my name's Rachel Price, I'm a camerawoman.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06I was part of the BBC team caught up Mount Etna

0:01:06 > 0:01:08during a volcanic explosion.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12As you see in the footage, I managed to catch the explosion

0:01:12 > 0:01:16happening and then realised quite quickly that we had

0:01:16 > 0:01:18to get off the mountain pretty quick and safely.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21As you see in the footage, I fall over.

0:01:21 > 0:01:30As I have fallen over, there was rocks that had come up

0:01:30 > 0:01:34in the volcano ash and poured down.

0:01:34 > 0:01:37In that moment, I was thinking, we really need to get off,

0:01:37 > 0:01:41we really need to get off here.

0:01:41 > 0:01:45During that point I had a rock go through of my big jackets.

0:01:45 > 0:01:50It went right down into my back and caught into another jacket

0:01:50 > 0:01:55and it's caused a big hole in the middle.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58Are your pets at bit podgy?

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Well this might be just for them.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03It's a fitness tracker for cats and dogs that's becoming

0:02:03 > 0:02:05popular in Hong Kong, in South East Asia.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08It's put on their collar and then the owner looks on their phone

0:02:08 > 0:02:09to see how active their pets been.

0:02:09 > 0:02:11I hope they've done their 10,000 steps!

0:02:11 > 0:02:14What do you do when you come face to face with an alligator?

0:02:14 > 0:02:17Well you might scream and run away but when a gator appeared

0:02:17 > 0:02:20on a golf course in America, instead of panicking golfer Cody Gribble

0:02:20 > 0:02:23simply gave him a little shove back into the water.

0:02:23 > 0:02:28He just said "see you later alligator" and carried on playing.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31To another cool customer now and this police officer's certainly

0:02:31 > 0:02:32got some serious moves.

0:02:32 > 0:02:36He dances up a storm daily, trying to copy Michael Jackson,

0:02:36 > 0:02:39while directing traffic on the busy streets of Maiduguri in Nigeria.
