Viral video: Battle at Kruger
One of the most popular videos at YouTube right now is dramatic footage taken by tourists in South Africa's Kruger National Park. The video starts with the lions hiding in the grass as the buffaloes approach. The lions pounce, bringing down the youngest calf and crashing into a nearby stream. Two crocs get in on the action and try to steal the catch but they're outnumbered. Then the buffalo herd comes back, and one courageous bull makes his stand.

The movie was shot by amateur photographer David Budzinski using a videocamera he received as a corporate gift. Since being posted to YouTube by fellow safari tourist Jason Schlosberg, it has been viewed over 23 million times. National Geographic even paid to send the pair back to Africa to develop a special on how they got this amazing footage.
