| Description: | LEAPS AND BOUNDS Racing a kangaroo across the plains of New South Wales, Australia. New South Wales, Australia. Various shots taken from the back of a truck that is racing a bounding kangaroo across wild scrubland. We reach 60 miles an hour, still chasing the kangaroo. Several kangaroos fling themselves through the gaps in a wire fence, but our truck cannot pull up in time, so we drive straight into the fence and a man (cameraman?) is thrown from the truck onto the ground, onto one of the kangaroos. Another man catches hold of a kangaroo's tail. (speed) | |
