Harrison Ford Beheads a Papa Smurf Doll on ‘Conan’ [VIDEO]
Harrison Ford isn’t smurfing around. On ‘Conan‘ last night, the actor expressed his intense dislike for the little blue creatures by beheading a plush Papa Smurf.
Ford has good reason to be peeved: the CGI reboot of ‘The Smurfs’ nearly tied his new movie ‘Cowboys and Aliens’ at the box office over the weekend. And, to add insult to injury, wife Calista Flockhart paid good money to take their son to the movie, while they saw Ford’s sci-fi western for free.

UFO Caught on Camera During Live News Broadcast in Texas [VIDEO]
This footage of a mysterious object in the sky, which aired on ‘Today,’ probably won’t change anyone’s opinion of UFOs. But it’s bound to at least spark some debate.
During a live traffic news broadcast on KXAS in Fort Worth, Texas, a tower camera caught a bright object that appeared to fall from the early morning sky at 5:40am. But rather than descend straight to the ground, the object veered off at a 45 degree angle.

Ouch! Neil Patrick Harris Reveals He Accidentally Dissed President Obama to Jimmy Fallon [VIDEO]
With all of Neil Patrick Harris’ experience hosting awards shows, the actor certainly seems capable of an improvised joke. But while meeting Barack Obama, Harris choked and made a remark that wasn’t well-received by the president, he said on ‘Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.’
Harris said he got rattled when it came time to meet the Commander-in-Chief. “You turn around a curtain and there’s the frigging President of the United States. And you quickly panic,” he said.
Awkward! David Letterman Examines Harrison Ford’s Head [VIDEO]

Fearless Dog Bites Shark [VIDEO]
One pooch recently proved he’s alpha dog material by driving away a shark in the waters near One Arm Point, a remote community in western Australia. Good boy!
In a YouTube video featured on ‘Today,’ the dog can be seen paddling contentedly through the ocean while two sharks lurk beneath the surf. It’s difficult to gauge the size of the fish, but they certainly appear to be large. The dog showed no fear, however, and dove beneath the waves to deliver a bite to one of them.
Geyser Erupts From Manhole, Lifts Car Into the Air [VIDEO]
Earlier in the week, a massive storm dumped almost 12 inches of rain in less than hour on Montreal, causing the city’s sewer system to swell. In this amateur video shown on ‘Today,’ a cameraman filmed as a geyser of water blew off a manhole cover and lifted a parked car into the air.
The geyser started slowly at first, lifting the car only inches off the ground. But eventually, a massive torrent of water exploded from the sewer system and hoisted the backend of the vehicle several feet off the ground.
Bride Arrested While Wearing Wedding Dress [VIDEO]
Michigan police were kind enough to help 53-year-old Tammy Lee Hinton with some gratis portraits on her wedding day. Unfortunately, mugshots probably weren’t the sort of photos she had in mind.
According to ‘The Early Show,’ police arrested Hinton last Saturday on a three-year-old warrant for identity theft only moments after her vows.
