A heart-stopping moment when a motorcyclist stopped at a busy intersection see what she thought was a leaf blowing around on the road, but was actually a tiny kitten.

Click here to watch as her helmet cam records the event, including first sight of the little thing on the asphalt where the animal was only a meter or so away from traffic rushing through the intersection.

A pickup just brushes by the furry ball only seconds before the motorcyclist was able to put the bike on its side stand, warn traffic away with her hand and rescue the confused kitten.

A happy ending and also a new home for the cat.

What might the motorcyclist call her new pet, apart from lucky? Helmut?

    It was reportedly a logistical challenge to collect a massive front shovel excavator from the open pit coal mine Calenturitas de Prodeco in north-eastern Colombia. The twin engines of the 290-tonne O&K RH 120-E mining excavator had given up the ghost and could not be repaired on site, leaving the monster stranded atop a high mound of earth.
