Breaking news tonight. New details on what could have been one of the worst aviation disasters in history. Federal investigators tonight are looking into what caused two 757s full of passengers to nearly collide over hawaii on april 25th. Both planes were at their assigned altitudes, meaning this near collision could have cost hundreds of lives. And tonight we are learning what caused the near miss. Rene marsh just broke the news. This is an incredible story. Were going to be joined by someone on the plane which is actually the only reason we seem to know this happen about this sudden dive and this near collision. What happened . What we now know based on information from the ntsb as you just stated there, the two planes were assigned to these altitudes. So they didnt move this on their own. They were told by air Traffic Control to essentially climb to the altitudes that they were at. Sources are telling me that this is an indication that this was a messup by air Traffic Controllers, essentially telling the planes where to go and they did, and essentially, they were on this course here where they could have potentially collided midair. And of course, that would have been a very bad situation. Were talking about two planes traveling perhaps at around roughly 500 miles per hour. We do know that they were about eight miles apart. At this rate, they could have been on top of each other within seconds, erin. Just to reset what happened here, we know it was United Airlines flight 1205. It was going from hawaii and going to california. It was 33,000 feet midair over the pacific when there was that alert, the collision alert system went off inside of the pilots cockpit warning that something was wrong. At that moment, within 60 seconds, that plane dropped some 600 feet. And boy, the people on board, they felt it. They got the scare of their lives. And now we know, erin, that it was because air Traffic Control assigned them to those altitudes. Assigned them to the same altitude. Incredible. Rene marsh, thank you very much. I want to bring in Kevin Townsend now. He was on that flight. He wrote about that experience in a blog. Two weeks ago i almost died in the deadliest plane crash. Your essay was impossible not to read. If it werent for this, they wouldnt have looked into this and found out what happened. Youre cruising along at 30,000 feet. Youre about to eat. Youre watching your movie. And what happened . Well, out of nowhere, the plane just took this sudden dive. We dropped about 600 feet. And it was incredibly violent. It was very scary. It was over incredibly quickly. And there is really no indication of this. It was a cloudless sky. None of us expected. It was shocking. I mean, were were things flying around . How dramatic . I can only imagine how terrifying that would be. But how dramatic was it . I know you said you could hear things breaking . Well, it was shortly after we had finished our ascent to cruising altitude. So we were only at cruising altitude a little bit. The fast sten seat belt sign was off. People started screaming. There were unsecured things that started falling. But thankfully, no one was bounced around. Thank god there was no one out of their seat belt. Did they then explain . Because i know you said you wanted to find out what happened. And your description of what happened in the cockpit, you know, involved them looking out and seeing another plane and a lot of profanity. I wouldnt say a lot of profanity. I think the pilot reacted as anyone would if you see an aircraft coming at you hundreds of miles an hour. I think they reacted exactly how they were supposed to. They responded and im thankful for that. We just learned this was caused by air Traffic Control, that they had both of these planes at the same altitude. How does that make you feel . Wary. I initially looked into this and spoke to the flight crew after we landed, because i know that flights flying a certain direction east or west are assigned altitudes with about a thousand feet of buffer. Right. So i was curious if we were incorrect or the other flight was incorrect. From talking to them, it seemed like my flight, the united 1205 flight was at a generally correct altitude. But of course, its up to air Traffic Controllers to assign direction. Right. Well, kevin, thank you very much. And of course now we can report, as you heard renee mar were the breaking news. Both of these planes were flying at the altitude they were assigned, which would have of course ended in a headon collision. Miles obrien and Arthur Rosenberg join me now. You just heard rene with this breaking news. You can imagine, you heard kevin talking what it was like to be on the flight. It is frankly a miracle that nobody was up and Walking Around because the person could have been killed. This was an air Traffic Control decision. You got two planes going at 600 miles an hour, full at the same altitude because they were where they were supposed to be. How could that happen . Well, there is a convention in air Traffic Control westerly flights fly at even altitudes. Easterly flights fly at odd altitudes. Thats generally what keeps everything separated. Controllers do have the discretion to put an aircraft on the opposite direction for various reason, traffic or there is turbulence, any number of things. Obviously, when that happens, you want to confirm that this is what you should be doing. And air Traffic Control needs to be very careful and wary of the fact that they have done just that. Now, if two planes are headed on a collision course like that, all kinds of alarms should be ring inside that air Traffic Control facility, unless this, at this particular point in the flight they were not under positive radar control. I dont know exactly the story on that. Right. The point is it is ultimately up to the air Traffic Controller. They can at their discretion assign planes in opposite directions at the same flight. But its their responsibility to watch out for that. And lets remember, that tcast system saved the day here. This is a reminder of the layers of safety saved a lot of lives. Arthur, you just heard the words kevin used. Described it as violent. Just think about he also writes in his essay thats a moment where you just realize were all essentially apes flying in this little metal tube. And we just take it for granted. And the incredible fear people must have felt. Now people go and this was purposeful. Not with mall intent. Sure. But they were doing what they were told do. Well, look at it like this. Two airplanes coming at each other at 600 miles per hour, thats a closure rate of 1200 miles an hour, or about 2,000 feet a second. When those pilots saw it and the Traffic Control avoidance system alert went off, its screaming in the cockpit to one pilot to dive and to the other pilot to climb. So you have basically this. And this is an incredibly violent maneuver that opposes a lot of gs. People are flying all over the cabin if theyre not seat belted in. Which is why you should always wear a seat belt, unless you have to go to the bathroom or do Something Else on an airplane. But the tcast system worked. Air Traffic Control, if they were do pilots generally do what it says . I know is there there have been some instances where the system tells you to do one thing and the pilots override it. They might do another. And its often the right thing to do. They did what they were told they had a second to make a decision. In an emergency, all bets are off. A pilot can do whatever he believes he has to do for the safe operation of the airplane. But mistakes are made by air Traffic Controllers, perhaps as miles said they werent in a radar environment, which might explain this. But the system worked. An accident did not happen, even though it was a very scary and violent situation. All right, thanks to both of you. And outfront next, we have breaking news on flight 370 tonight. Only outfront, we have exclusive new details on the satellite data, the data, what it was that determined the search area. Plus, the myths associated with going glutenfree.

The groundbreaking Ram Heavy Duty with 30,000 pounds of towing and 850 poundfeet of torque. Breaking news. Exclusive new developments in the hunt for malaysia Airlines Flight 370. The inmarsat data, tonight we are learning exactly what raw data inmarsat says it gave the malaysian government. This data is the holy grail pour the search for flight 370, because inmarsats data is the reason the entire world is looking for the plane in the southern indian ocean. Sources close to inmarsat are giving outfront details on the ray data, saying the raw data is just 14 numbers. This information has been included in the briefing given to the Investigative Team. Also note the inmarsat analysis on the raw data has also been given in briefs to the Investigative Team in an electronic format. All right. So the interpretation is that not only they didnt just show the malaysians what they did, they have given them their analysis in an electronic format. Here is the thing that may have you stunned, just 14 numbers. Thats incredible. Many were expecting reams of numbers and calculations. Joining me miles obrien, richard quest. Lets begin with you, richard. Youve been talking to your sources. You have more details what exactly the 14 numbers are. Drum roll, please. Right. The 14 numbers. They are the time that it takes for the aircraft to make its signal up to the satellite and to the ground station and the time for it to get back again. There are seven in all, which is where you get the 14 numbers. There are no reams of raw data. Let me say that again. There are no vast tomes. There are no volumes there are two sets of log, those relating to mh 370 and those used to make the comparisons. Those logs are what is the raw data by which everybody has then gone on to do their analysis. My understanding quite clear is that that data has been provided to the malaysians. Yes. And they are saying that in electronic format, everything, miles obrien. But here is the thing. 14 data points . You know, im sorry, this whole thing is starting to sound a little childist to me, frankly. But let me just tell you. Im going try to translate what have i gotten from some mathematicians who gave me a lot of complicated stuff on what theyre wanting. But basically, what they want are information on the algorithms which underlie all of this. The offsets, the margin of error on some of the distance traveled on the ground. Its incredibly complex stuff, which goes to how they got to those numbers. And here is a key one. This one, i think we can all understand, how does inmarsat know that the failures on board that aircraft do not in some way change the data . In other words, if all those Communication Systems were failing, how do they know that doesnt affect the way that that information was being returned and the doppler effect was figured and the direction was ciphered out . Its the narrative behind the 14 numbers. Go ahead, richard. Because thats why they did the specimens of the other 777s both on the northern corridor and on the southern corridor. And thats why theyre able to conclude that it was the southern corridor. Because the correlation between others and mh 370 was connected. But arthur, mediate. Richard, hold on a sec. Thats the whole point. First of all, inmarsat is a multinational billion corporation whose corporate credibility and trustworthiness is on the line. They said we did not have the data. The malaysians have it. The malaysians said inmarsat has it. Hold on a second. Hold on, richard, one second. Right now there is no reason, there is no precalculation, icao annex 13 or otherwise why they should not release the data. And the bfos, which i call the doppler shifts, the doppler fingerprint, they must release it. And there is no good reason why they shouldnt. Yes. And if inmarsat is worried about their business, their shareholders on a worldwide basis are going to be a lot more upset with the way they have handled this if they dont come forth. Richard, i want to take this as two parts. Lets start with at least can we all agree that there is more data than 14 data points . There is the analysis. Theyre saying they submitted that. But everybody there was more than 14 data points here. Hang on. The raw data upon which Everything Else cascades, and i agree with both miles and arthur that the cascading effect coming from that is clearly much greater. Yes. But this idea that there is somehow a vast treasure trove of information being withheld, my understanding is simply its not the case. Now, to arthurs point, they say they dont have the data. Of course they say theyve got the data. What they are saying is theyve got the data. Malaysias got the data. Everybody involved has the relevant data. Thats what theyre saying. As for arthurs what about the point that arthur is saying that they have the ability, inmarsat to share the you, with miles, with scientists around the world, and theyre hiding behind this treaty, saying oh, we cant. Only malaysia can. Arthur says that doesnt add up. The treaty doesnt work that way. They can release the data. You say no. Listen very carefully. I am. Arthur is wrong, right . Section 5. 12. Section. 526 brackets big. Section 6. 2. Time and again, in the icao annex 13 treaty makes it clear for the release of information rests with the currents or registry. And if arthur is now suggesting that somehow there can be an implied consent because malaysia has said that its okay to do so, that wont wash with inmarsat. Very quick response. Richard, first of all, you are just wrong. Here is the bottom line. First of all, icao annex 13 is a framework which malaysia has played footloose and fancy free throughout this investigation. Now, even if this information were somehow not prohibited from disclosure by malaysia, which they have said its okay, get it from inmarsat. The only two pieces of information that are precluded are the progress of the investigation and the findings of the investigation. Nope, nope. Whatever parentheses youre reading from my good english friend, i say go back and lead a little closer, because you are missing the point. Hold on. I got to give the final word to miles. I just have to say one thing. All this talk about acao annex 13, subchapter, whatever, it is positively inhumane. Where is the humanity of inmarsat and the malaysians . Release the data, the narrative, the analysis, the algorithms. Lay the cards out on the table once and for all. This is childist and inhumane. Absolutely. We can leave there it. Thanks to all three of you. That debate will continue. Outfront next, glutenfree. Its all the rage, right . New questions on whether its all a myth. Did you know starbursts are gluten free .

Comcast business built for business. The big business of glutenfree food. But is it all a big joke . A recent study shows a lot of people who think theyre sensitive to gluten arent. In fact, a lot of people on a glutenfree diet dont even know what theyre on. Here is what happened when a glutenfree dieter tried to explain to jimmy kimmel what gluten is. Its wheat in products such as like bread or pastas, rice. Why do you avoid it . It makes you fat. I mean, like i said, i havent researched it to the fullest. I have a girlfriend from russia. She actually just got me into it. So she is reading a book about it. Oh, okay. The russians know about gluten and putin. They know about both of those. Gluten is actually a composite of proteins found in foods made from wheat and certain other food. But thanks to the russian and her glutenfree friends, its a billion dollar industry expected to go 50 just by 2016. Joining me now, dr. Mark hyman, the founder of the ultra wellness center. He helped president clinton find a Healthy Lifestyle after a quadruple bypass surgery. We have seen the results of that he is thin and fit, a lean mean machine. Here is the deal. We went to a supermarket. We went to a whole foods, and all of the sudden everything says glutenfree. And they charge you a little more. And glutenfree, it must be free of something bad. Im going to buy it. But you know what . Potato chips, starbursts, soda. Theyre all glutenfree. They can charge you more for the same thing you were buying before. It is a hoax . Basically, my rule for food is if it has a health claim on the label, its probably bad for you. If you it says glutenfree, you probably want to stay away unless it has a label. Avocados are glutenfree. Salmon is glutenfree. Glutenfree cake and cookies is still cake and cookies. So my starburst is not okay. Here is the thing. People are buying into this. Thats right. The number of people buy the food, 5 of households, it doubled in just a couple of years. Basically youre telling people, youre just basically paying more for food than you need to pay for . Absolutely. Gluten is a real issue. For some people, a very serious issue. So its gone up by 400 celiac disease in the last 50 years, a real increase. Weve seen an increase in heart attacks and cancers from people who are gluten sensitive, which can affect up to over 20 million americans, 8 . And there is a whole group that might have gluten sensitivity that is not the typical kind. It may not be testable on a lab test. So there are people who are sensitive to it and react to it and should be off of it. But for a lot of white house can tolerate it, its fine. Right. For most people, this would you know . You would know because you feel badly. But most people dont know what is going on with them. They have what i call flc system. They feel like crap. And when you feel like crap, its good to try an elimination of the common foods that trigger that there is an article today in the New York Times by dr. David littlewig called why are you hungry. And its really about the process of refined carbohydrates like bread, rice, cereal and pasta that make you hungry and cause overeating. Thats another reason to avoid gluten products because you are going to gain weight from eating the processed foods. You helped a lot of people get in shape, president clinton, and larry summers. Talk about svelt. He is close. Gluten free. Would you put them on glutenfree . Yeah. You pet them on glutenfree . Yeah there are reasons people have allergies or have joint pain or have issues. There are 55 different diseases. You dont buy into the big picture. Very individualized, absolutely. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. So basically, the bottom line is you dont need it, but check it out if you have flc syndrome. Thats right. Outfront next, breaking news on the wildfires raging in california.

Crews are battling at this moment to contain wildfires raging across San Diego County, california. The flames have already burned through 20,000 acres. The biggest fire just doubling in size. Thousands of homes and businesses in jeopardy. 176,000 evacuations. In the town of carlsbad alone, which is 25 miles outside san diego, flames have caused more than 20 million in damage already. And there is still no clear cause of the unprecedented wave of fire. Investigators are treating each blaze like a crime scene, and moments ago the San Diego County District Attorney announced the first arson charge in connection with this disaster. Gary tuchman is outfront from san marcos, where flames have doubled. This is that site. They have doubled in just the past 24 hours. And that fire is only 10 contained. A true disaster. Gary, what are they doing to get the fires under control . Last night it was 5 contained. Today only 10 . They are struggling. The firefighters have been working very hard over the last few days, erin. They were greatly helped today. The greatest aid is high humidity and lower temperatures. We still have gusty winds right now. But its much cooler than yesterday, about 15 degrees cooler. Right now its about 82. Yesterday at this time it was 97. And the humidity level has gone up. So its helped them a great deal. But you see what happened where im standing right now. Right now im on top of a hill above san marcos. Yesterday at this time we were on the bottom of the hill looking up. We saw flames right here. And see we said to ourselves, this house is going to be hit by the flames. And now were at the house. You see what happened to it. These are the garage doors right here. And you can see there is so much rubble here. You cant see any personal belongings anymore. The house was totally decimated. Fortunately, the most Important News is that the people who lived here, the family evacuated like many people know to do, like most people know to do, because this is a fire danger area. They got out. They have come back and seen the devastation, but are grateful theyre alive. What is interesting about this and what is so sad about this is this house is destroyed. Every other house on the block is okay. Its often what we see during tornado coverage where one house will be destroyed. The rest of the houses will be fine. Thats what happened a lot during fires. This house is gone. But right now the danger in this particular part of san marcos seems to be alleviated, because tomorrow the expectation is the temperatures will go down even further. The humidity will continue to climb. And theyre hopeful at this point that the worst is over. Erin . Gary tuchman, thank you very much. Reporting live from the center of that fire, as we said, which has doubled in size overnight. Now a racist remark overheard in a restaurant has some residents of a small town calling for their Police Commissioner to resign. According to a complaint filed with the town of wolfeboro, new hampshire, 82yearold commissioner Robert Copeland was heard calling president obama the n word. Now, he was heard doing this during a private conversation in a restaurant. But then word got out, and many of the towns residents are outraged. This is a public office. And i just want to simply say there is absolutely no room for this anywhere in public office. Thank you. Copeland was silent during last nights town meeting. But when a group of residents confronted him in the parking lot afterward, he made no apologies. I admitted what i did. I made no bones about it. With me now is wolfeboro resident jane otoole. She is the one who filed the complaint after hearing the commissioners comments. Tell me how this came about. You were out to dinner with your husband, and what happened . We were sitting there having dinner, actually celebrating my eighth year cancer free. We had just returned from dana farber in boston. We just wanted to relax. And very loud, well, we heard someone ask mr. Copeland if he watched a local tv show called chronicle. And he piped up and said no, i dont watch tv because every time i do all i ever see is that fing n word. Which was an obvious poke at obama. It was extraordinarily loud. It wasnt like we were listening in on a quiet conversation. It was loud and just reverberated through the restaurant. And you have recently moved to wolfeboro, right . So when you heard this happen, you didnt actually know who it was, right . You didnt know the commissioner . No, not at all. Actually, as i left the restaurant, i just quietly said i passed him and quietly said is someone here tossing around the n word. And he puffed up and turned around and said yeah. So no, i did not know he was a public official in the town. So the next day i went to the restaurant and just asked if they knew who this person was. And at that moment i found out he was indeed the Police Commissioner. And was running for reelection actually. Thats amazing. So you actually did confront him about it, right . That was your way of making sure, is someone tossing that word around. You described he puffed up and said yeah. He has been unashamed about it. Exactly. Were going to share a statement in a moment. What made you decide to go forward and pursue it . That was a big decision to make. It takes a lot of time. You people coming after you. Its a big thing to do. What made you do it . Well, i sat on it for a long time. This incident happened in march, march 6th, actually. And the next time i took action was about the beginning of april when i first wrote a letter to the town manager. I have some friends in town. I wanted to find out what they thought. I was wondering if i would suffer any repercussions from bringing this to light. And a lot of people said to me, dont dont rock the boat, you know. Its a small town. Dont. But i just it just didnt sit right with me. And so my first step was i wrote a letter to the town manager. Who then actually copied to it the board of selectmen and also to the police commission. All right. Well, jane, thank you very much for taking the time to share what you went through and how hard it was for you to do it. I think its important to understand it wasnt easy. It wasnt like jane went running to somebody to do it. She really, really thought long and hard, and it was difficult. Joining me now is mike paul, Reputation Management expert and our legal analyst paul callen. So you just heard what jane had to say. What do you think . She went to him on march 6th. First of all, she took a long time to come forward. She thought long and hard about it. Right after she went up to him in the restaurant, i heard people throwing around the n word. He puffed up and said thats right. Unashamed. I think its a tribute to her integrity that she did that but he puffed up and he admitted to it. And he subsequently admitted to it. He doesnt care that its a racial epithet, that its derogatory and is offensive. He endorses it and accepts it. But he has the right of free speech in this country. And for that reason, the voters are going to have a hard time getting him to resign, if he doesnt want to. The First Amendment is going to give him protection. I dont agree with what he says. I think he should be thrown out of office. But the First Amendment says even speech we hate we will protect under the First Amendment. Mike, let me ask you than. The commissioner did put out a written response that i want to quote from. Here is what he said. While i believe the problems associated with minorities in this country are momentum us the the, im not phobic. It is the exercise of my First Amendment right. Does he have the right to make those comments in public and not be removed until the voters have the opportunity to remove him . You mean, the wolf, the wolf of wolfeboro . Come on, this is ridiculous. Yes, he absolutely has the right, and i agree with paul. But he also has the right to have accountability, harsh accountability. This is a person that needs to be boycotted. The town needs to be boycotted. I applaud jane for speaking up. Thats what we did in the 60s, right . We spoke up. We took action. We knew there was going to be accountability for our actions as well. This gentleman needs to have a boycott. Anyone that is thinking about going to wolfeboro should say you know what . Ill get my gas somewhere else. Ill get my groceries somewhere else. And i want to apply so much pressure to this town that the town itself will be so unattractive to him that he would want to step down. Paul, what do you do when you put this in the context of other incidents, though . You Donald Sterling, racist remarks, horrible, inappropriate, but he thought it was a private conversation, and it was recorded. And now we all know what happened there. In an elevator earlier this week, jayz and beyonce and beyonces sister there is a punching incident and now the whole world cease it. There doesnt seem to be privacy anymore. No, there isnt privacy anymore. Im so glad you said that. Because i didnt expect you to agree. Privacy is gone because of technology. When you know someone says something, how do you then with the societal norm the way it is now, everyone knows its a hateful, awful thing to say. How do you protect someone like that . There is something people have to understand. This is the biggest misconception about the First Amendment. Everybody says i can say whatever i want. The First Amendment pro next. The First Amendment protects you from government interference. You cant be put in jail for using derogatory language or racial epithets. But your employer can fire you. And Donald Sterling is learning that the nba can knock him out of office or there can be a boycott. Its a private group. Thats a private group. So the First Amendment has to do with the governments relationship with its citizens, not a businesses relationship with its employees. So you agree with mike . Mike, youre saying no, i disagree with the boycott. Its a terrible way to punish the good people of wolfeboro, new hampshire, who have had a meeting already, theyre angry at this guy. They want to force him out of office. Why put them out of business . Theyre doing the right things. The naacp, the National Urban league, the National Action network, rainbowpush should all be listening. This is an opportunity for a boycott. I absolutely disagree. Yes, it is something that the town is living with. Theyre living with a racist Police Commissioner right now. They have no impeachment statutes, and they have no recall statute. Youre an attorney. Youre an attorney. So this is not a legal action. The poor local grocerier who is trying to scrape a living, youre going to boycott him because this dopey Police Commissioner. With such pressure that nobody wants him there. I dont know. Its a tough thing. Its tough to fashion a solution that works. I do want your feedback as we continue to cover this story.

The communist government is more repressive than ever. The government has been blocking residents from searching the internet about controversial increases in subway fares. David mckenzie is outfront in beijing. Reporter the trouble began with a small private get together in early may remembering the victims of the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown. This a Group Portrait of the graying intellectuals and professionals. And today five sit in prison cells, detained by the Chinese Government without trial. Causing the greatest outcry perhaps famous rights lawyer who has helped reform chinas notorious system of labor camps. When i met him last year, he felt immune from the reaches of the communist party. I think im fine, but in china there is an invisible red line, but commemorating the Tiananmen Square incident, they moved past. Seems that the communist party of china is unwilling to come to terms with its history and is unwilling to silence even moderate voices of dissent. Activists call detention prepostero preposterous. Every year before the tiananmen anniversary, the parliament is on high alert. But this year is different, they say scores have been arrested in a nationwide crackdown. This is a public space, im allowed to report. Reporter it is part of a trend, they say, of shutting out all critical voices. Like when another prominent lawyer pushing for Government Transparency was jailed for four years in january. And we felt the sharpened of party power. And i think in times where theyre nervous they come down to the default strategy, which is stability above all else. Well, i put the disturbing facts of the story to the Chinese Government. They said that quote, china should not be based on the criteria of the United States. And that freedoms here are at historic highs. Erin . I mean, historic highs, but we see that video of you trying to cover a story getting beaten up and pushed into van. I mean, you experienced this. It seems like the communist party affects just the day to day life that we in this country cannot even imagine. Reporter well, it affects every aspect of daily life for People Living here like me. And of course, for most of the chinese, twitter and facebook, all manner of expression is blocked here in kmien, and china, people go to chinese sites, and as you mention, people go to the nasdaqlisted chinese website which is a lot like twitter here in china. And there are all sorts of phrases blocked there. So china and chinese are looking for ways to express. But often those expressions are clamped down and frequently people put in jail, erin . All right, thank you very much. David mckenzie with a fantastic report out of china there. Is there intelligent life out there . Well, for more on the modern hunt to aliens, i want to turn now to, what a segue, morgan spurlock. Area 51, all of this stuff going down, why are we so obsessed with aliens . What i love about this episode, we find not somebody in a field with a tin foil hat, but people who have dedicated their lives studying and trying to answer the question what is out there . Are we alone in universe . So do you believe there are ufos when we look at the evidence . I think there is never that, we are the only ones that exist in the universe is unlikely. Have there been little green men who walked the neighborhood, i dont know if i believe that. There seems to be a lot fewer photographs of actual aliens and space ships than they were in 1950. So i think that you know, the jury is still very much open. But i hope im around when they come. It would be great. Just as long as it is not like independent state right, i mean, i totally how can you not believe there is intelligent life out there . But you dont believe they visited earth yet . You know, again, from the evidence i saw when we were making this show doesnt point to a real likelihood that they were here. Right, well, i cant wait to see the evidence because i want to see them when they come. You and i are going to be there when they come.

So this is what it looks like when a semi carrying 25,000 pounds of cream cheese has the top of its trailer ripped off. It was an unpleasant situation for the driver and police and bagel fans. That is roughly the amount of people that will go without their bagels and cream cheese, otherwise, everybody was okay, peoplewise. Reporter to bad trucks cant duck because that white truck up ahead is on a parkway with low overpasses where trucks are not allowed to be. Brace yourself. It is all over after the next overpass. As the dust settled, College Student azad brought his car to a stop. He had pulled out his camera as soon as he saw the Truck Driving where it shouldnt be on long islands meadow brook parkway. After the impact he drove around the debris and stopped to check on the driver who was not injured. Dwight smith told nabille he was from North Carolina and was using gps to navigate. He was distraught and upset about what happened. Reporter actually, these things happen all the time. There is a low Railroad Trestle in durham, North Carolina, that gets hit so often that a resident set up a camera. Just a hobby. Reporter to record the accidents. He then puts them on his website called 11 foot 8, that bridge is called the can opener. But weve never seen this type of can opened. Quite this up close and personal. When we showed the video to other truckers they were unforgiven. I make mistakes just like everybody else. He probably wasnt much of a truck driver. Reporter the driver said he didnt see signs, although there is a smaller one. Police say he will probably be fined somewhere between 350 to 500. Some commenters said that nabille was a jerk for not warning him. Get alongside him and tell him to pull over. Reporter but he said there was not time between overpasses. It is not an easy task to stop a truck. And more importantly if i sped up next to him, what if at that moment he went under the overpass and everything fell on top of my car. Reporter so what was the truck carrying anyway, all over the highway . Looks like insulation. Reporter the truck got creamed, as one poster commented, well, it fits under there now. Jeanne moos, cnn, new york. And you can lick the highway. All right, earlier, jeanne introduced you to tara, the heroic cat that body slammed a dog and saved a 4yearold boy. Remember this . Boom, it has had many hits on youtube, and the bakersfield blaze, we called them. Said how is she going to do it . Anyway, they say they have a trick up their sleeve. Judging from this onfield video, it could be a catastrophe. Anderson starts now. Have a good weekend. And good evening, tonight, wildfires burning in southern california, tonight, homes in the line of the fire. And tonight, also the heartbreaking story of the girl who was taken from the family she had ever known. We begin with embattled l. A. Clippers owner Donald Sterling ready for a
