What happens

World's Most Amazing Videos is an American reality television series that ran on NBC from March 3, 1999, until 2001, as a filler program when other shows were cancelled and later revived on Spike TV from 2006 until 2008. The show showcases accidents, disasters, police chases and other extraordinary events that were caught on video camera. Until 2007, all episodes of the show were narrated by Stacy Keach. From that point on, the season was narrated by Erik Thompson. The show was broadcast in the United Kingdom on Bravo and Channel One, in which David Wartnaby served as the narrator of the first season followed by Lee Boardman in the second season of broadcast and was expected to return in 2012. In Australia, it is shown on the pay-TV channel Fox8. The series was given its own local name titled Global Shockers in the Philippines that was aired on ABC-5 (now known as TV5) from 2006 until 2007 and was hosted by Johnny Delgado, but upon cancellation of the former, this series was officially aired in its original title in 2008 until 2011 via RPN (under its interim blocktimer "Suspense Shift" via Solar Entertainment Corporation owned-C/S 9 (from 2008 until 2009) and carried over to Solar TV (from 2009 until 2011), now known as RPTV). The fifth and final season changed the format; instead of multiple random clips in one episode, each episode now focuses on a certain theme. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
