i could hear this it didn t even sound like it didn t sound like a dog. thought maybe it was a cow dying. 20 minutes later, beth discovers the source of those cries. i ran inside and grabbed my dad and i told him there was a dog in the that had fallen through the ice in the middle of the lake and we needed to go save her. mike jacoby calls 911. 911. i m at country view lake. i know it s just a dog, but there s a big dog trapped in the lake, in the ice. she s a dog and she is trapped in the ice. she s not going to get out on her own. all right. i m going to contact animal control. we ll try to get someone out there. down by the lake, the jacobys recognize chloe, a neighbor s 16-year-old labrador retriever. she was really trying hard to crawl up over the ice after hearing her name being called out.
there s a large crack forming across the ice just behind the man s sled. i could look right down and see the ripples come out from under the ice because the ice was so thin. other people venture further out on the ice. no one seems aware of any danger. i kind of kept thinking, if they get enough speed, they re going to keep going, and they re going to end up in the water. which is exactly what happens. this one guy went up pretty high and came down. he was coming across the frozen lake extremely fast. and my wife turned the camera back on and that s when you see him going off the ice into the water. there s surprised laughter and cheering. then he starts flailing his arms. that s seriously not even funny. no, it s not. it appears the man can t swim. he was going under. his head went under three times. and it was just really scary. you guys, they re standing and
they need to take his clothes off. they re putting blankets on them. right now. sienna, we got a blanket. we have a blanket in the car. i don t know if they need one. a crowd surrounds the men. they remove their cold, wet clothes and cover them with blankets and coats. one man takes off his own shirt to provide body heat to one of the men submerged the longest. at that point, i turned the videocamera off. i felt like i didn t need to be in this guy s face when he s suffering. everyone survives the incident, but the lake is closed for the rest of the winter. i think it really took seeing it happen, as it play out in front of your eyes to see how dangerous it is. oh! coming up, another high-stakes rescue attempt on thin ice, and this time it s a stranded best friend. hey, chloe. you re just afraid that just
december 25th, 2012. angeles national forest, southern california. nicky and michelle herman take a drive with their family to jackson lake in the san gabriel mountains for the afternoon. we were really surprised at how many people were there spending christmas day, probably close to 500. then we noticed the lake was frozen and the people sledding down on to the hill out on to the ice. michelle has a brand new videocamera. she tries to focus on the hillside across the lake. we had seen a lot of people going down from the hill on to the frozen lake. adults with kids. they would actually stop before they were getting close to the water. it appears that the lake ice near the base of the hill is frozen solid enough to stand on. then a guy goes down the hill and when he doesn t get close to the water, he pushes himself out closer. the man scoots further out on to the lake. look at that big crack. is that a big crack next to him right here? yeah. michelle refocuses her ca
