Flooding, an elephant in search of a snack, and a surf rescue are the Must-See Videos for Thursday.



TEXAS FLOODING



Floods in Lubbock, Texas caused power outages overnight. Emergency workers were called to check out a car found underwater, but no one was hurt.



FEED ME!



An elephant in Sri Lanka apparently thinks his day job is traffic cop. The huge animal parked himself in the middle of a busy road and refused to let drivers pass.



Residents in the area say elephants often stand in the middle of the road "asking" for fruit and treats from drivers.



SURF RESCUE



Near San Francisco, heavy surf left two surfers stranded.



Emergency workers rescued the father and son from Ocean Beach. Paramedics administered CPR after they were pulled from the water. At last check, they were in critical condition.
