Great video of a Neutrophil cell, a type of immune cell, relentlessly chasing down a bacterium while pushing aside red blood cells. I found it fascinating to see our immune system in action.

The video was apparently taken from a 16-mm movie made in the 1950s by the late David Rogers at Vanderbilt University.
