The Informercial King

Steps to help your dog get onto a bed, an alarm clock helicopter, an ear lobe destretcher. These aren't items you necessarily need. But late at night, if you can't sleep and nothing else is on TV, perhaps you've been captivated by their elaborate sales pitches. Maybe you've even bought one of these items -- or at least wondered what kind of person would. Well, lots of people would, and they are big business for A.J. Khubani -- the man behind all these products and the king of the informercial. ABC's John Berman reports.

When Animals Attack (and the Animal Is a 300-Pound Fish)

Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly. But what about fish that just gotta jump? On a stretch of the famous Suwannee River in northern Florida, the massive Gulf sturgeon -- clocking in at up to 8 feet long and 300 pounds -- has a tendency to leap several feet out of the water. It's truly an astonishing sight. But it's also become very dangerous, resulting in serious injuries to boaters and Jet Ski riders who are using the river in increasing numbers. ABC's Jeffrey Kofman reports.
