Lets go to ginger now and where this is all heading. Where its all heading is right back in the same region. It wasnt just maryland. Look at this from new jersey.

Donald trump sparking a firestorm after taking on the father of a fallen u. S. Soldier who spoke at the democratic convention. Now trump is firing back saying he was viciously attacked. Abcs tom llamas is here with the latest. Good morning, tom. Reporter robin, good morning to you. The back and forth getting heated after trump sat down with george. Critics say trump crossed the line taking on a gold star family but trump says they started it first by attacking him and his policies. This morning, donald trump in a growing fight with the muslim parents of a fallen u. S. Soldier. He is a black soul and this is totally unfit for the leadership of this beautiful country. Reporter the khans lost their son, u. S. Army captain humayun khan, to a car bomb in iraq. They came out strong against Donald Trumps muslim ban at the democratic convention. Have you ever been to Arlington Cemetery . Go look at the graves of brave patriots who died defending United States of america. You will see all faiths, genders and ethnicities. You have sacrificed nothing. And no one. Reporter trump wasnt happy. Seeming to question the sincerity of the speech in an exclusive interview with george. Who wrote that . Did hillarys script writers write that . Reporter trump also questioning the silence from mrs. Khan during the speech. His wife, if you look at his wife, she was standing there. She had nothing to say. She probably maybe she wasnt allowed to have anything to say. Reporter ghazala khan telling us she was too emotional to speak. The image of her deceased son just behind her. I dont want anybody in the world to have this pain, but i dont see every person with a heart, the kind heart felt it. Why not . Why did he not feel that . That he asked me that i didnt say anything. Im so sorry, mr. Trump. Im so sorry for your heartless thinking. Im very sorry. Reporter but it was this exchange with george that has fueled this new trump controversy. How would you answer that father . What sacrifice have you made for your country . I think ive made a lot of sacrifices. I work very, very hard. Ive created thousands and thousands of jobs. Tens of thousands of jobs. Built great structures. Ive done ive had tremendous success. I think those are sacrifices . Oh, sure, i think theyre sacrifices. Reporter trump tweeting later, i was viciously attacked by mr. Khan at the democratic convention. Am i not allowed to respond . Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell and Speaker Paul Ryan releasing statements, not condemning trump but emphasizing praise on captain khan and his parents as patriots. Hillary clinton putting it this way. To have trump do what he did, i dont know where the bounds are. I dont know where the bottom is. Reporter now, in that interview trump also signaled he wasnt happy that some of the upcoming debate dates coincide with nfl games. Trump saying the nfl sent him a letter expressing their concern while the nfl says they never sent a letter. The Trump Campaign correcting the record saying mr. Trump was made aware of the conflict by a source close to the league. Guys, so many headlines coming out of that interview. It really was. A lot of news. Lets talk about it now with our political analysts, matt dowd and Martha Raddatz and, matt, let me begin with you. Weve seen trump get into tussles like this before and he took on that indiana judge. He took on john mccain. Didnt seem to make a difference. As this is happening we also have this new poll out showing a fairly healthy bounce for Hillary Clinton. Well, yeah, george, he also took on the pope in the course of the primary campaign in this. We are in a different moment and this is a moment, if you recall, like what happened to sarah palin. Much of what she said before she sort of got in the tussle of the november election was ignored. Now with 100 days left, george, every single thing willing is going to be looked at much differently than it was in the primary and this couldnt have come at a worse time for donald trump as the democrats left their convention with what most people thought was a very good convention. And martha, a lot of focus on National Security and russia policy in that interview and for donald trump right now. I want to play a little bit more of the interview and ask you about it. Lets take a listen. Just so you understand hes not going to go into ukraine. You can mark it down, take it hes already there. Isnt he well, hes there in a certain way but im not there. You have obama there and frankly, that whole part of the world is a mess under obama with all the strength that youre talking about and all of the power of nato and all of this, in the meantime, hes going he takes crimea and you said you might recognize that. Im going to take a look at it but, you know, the people of crimea from what ive heard would rather be with russia than where they were. And, martha, that feeds the narrative youre seeing from the Clinton Campaign that donald trump doesnt know a lot about Foreign Policy or at times but also that he might be soft on russia. It certainly does, george. You know, Foreign Policy is certainly not made on flattery alone and the u. S. Relationship with russia has been especially tense over russias incursions into ukraine, the crimea and its support of the syrian president , the best examples of late are those dangerous flybys of our ships. Its not clear exactly what trump was getting at when he said the russians wouldnt go into ukraine since you pointed out they are already there. I think he was saying that if he becomes president that wont happen anymore because hell have a great relationship with putin but i think he would find it much more complicated than that. Okay, Martha Raddatz, matt dowd, thanks very much. And george, now on to the democratic ticket looking to build on momentum from the convention. They did receive a bump from the convention. Hillary clinton and tim kaine hitting key battleground states over the weekend answering questions about issues they disagree on. Abcs david wright has the latest. We have 100 days to make our case to america. Reporter were now just starting the homestretch. So clinton and kaine are wasting no time taking their message out to the states that will likely decide the race. Now, this is the part of the campaign i really like. Reporter but already this new political couple is having some growing pains. Lets repeal laws like the hyde amendment. I support the hyde amendment. I havent changed that. Reporter this weekend on cnn tim kaine made it clear he is his own man on the abortion ash issue, supporting the ban of use taxpayers funds to pay for abortions. A provision clinton has vowed to repeal. As Vice President i had to get comfortable with the notion that i can have my personal views but im going to support the president of the United States and i will. Reporter but clinton has much bigger differences with her republican rival telling audiences here she sees trump as dangerous. He is temperamentally unfit and unqualified to be president of the United States and commanderinchief. Reporter thats a message she hopes will resonate here in the rust belt, a region thats critical to Donald Trumps victory strategy. Today clinton heads to omaha, nebraska, and shell be joined there by billionaire warren buffett, george. Yeah, looking to pick up that one electoral vote. Okay, david, thanks very much. Were going to get the latest on the zika emergency here in the United States. Health officials report four cases caused by mosquitoes in florida. Our dr. Richard besser is on the scene in miami and, rich, officials there are convening a crucial meeting today. Yeah, good morning, george. Theres a lot of concern about the four cases of zika here in miami and whether they could indicate a larger outbreak. The Florida Governor will be meeting with Community Groups and we hear that florida and the cdc hope to have an update later today. Well be listening to see whether the travel advisories will change. This morning, florida zika fears have come true. Four people in our state likely have the zika virus as a result of a mosquito bite. Reporter for the first time, people in the u. S. Have contracted zika right here at home. Not related to outside travel. But from bites they got right here in the u. S. Florida Health Officials say all four cases were located here in these two counties near miami. All were likely bitten at the beginning of july. Thats really scary. Something to worry about. Reporter while cases of zika have been found in 46 states all those but one were linked to travel to 1 of the 64 countries and territories where zika is common. The case not involving travel was due to a lab accident. Now in miami, workers are going door to door heavily spraying socalled zika hot zones and testing neighbors looking for any signs that the virus is still here. Hoping to contain it before it spreads further. Once something starts, we nip it in the bud. Reporter overseas travelers are on edge. Both england and ireland have now issued travel alerts warning all pregnant women to avoid nonessential travel to florida. But for those living in the area, the fear of zika is pressing. Right now we would like to have another baby and we really would like to see more action. Reporter this is the neighborhood where those cases occurred and theyre going door to door handing out these pamphlets. The key message for pregnant women and for others, use repellent, avoid mosquito bites. George. Okay, rich, thanks very much. Now, lets go to amy for todays other top stories. You had a major new fire in the west. Thats right, and were getting images now of the massive new wildfire in western montana. Flames up to 200 feet high have burned more than 2,000 acres. This is in the Bitterroot National forest forcing the evacuation of 500 homes and theres an even bigger threat in california where 5300 firefighters are now battling that blaze near big sur and its threatening thousands of homes. A bulldozer operator was killed while helping fire crews. Well, overseas right now the taliban is claiming responsibility for a truck bomb today in a hotel popular with foreign contractors in kabul, afghanistan. The explosion shook much of the city and at least one Police Officer was killed. Hundreds of muslims attended catholic mass in france on sunday in a show of solidarity following the murder of a priest by teenagers linked to isis. One group held a banner saying, love for all. Pope francis told reporters it is not fair to equate islam with violence. He said every religion has a small group of fundamentalists. Well, there is a new warning for athletes ahead of the rio olympics, a sty by the Associated Press found the citys water is still dangerously dirty with waste containing viruses and bacteria. Experts are advising swimmers and travelers not to put their heads in the open water. Well, some frightening moments at this Demolition Derby in utah after a collision, the driveshaft of a truck flew into the stands 30 rows deep. The piece of metal hitting three people but thankfully they are all expected to be okay. And finally, the photo that may trump them all. Take a look at this elm tree overgrown with ivory, that a man photographed in england. Im guessing by the laughter you see the resemblance. Well show a sidebyside comparison that the dailymail. Com is showing the signature hair, the mouth, everything is quite the same and he added that perhaps its a warning about who might be president in november. He saw it as a sign in the countryside of england. Anyway uncanny. I thought lincoln. I thought too. The hair. I got it. Thank you, amy. Now to an amazing survival story. Take a look at this terrifying crash caught on camera. The car flipping nearly a dozen times before coming to a stop. Good samaritans then racing to save the driver who not only survived but was conscious. Abcs t. J. Holmes tells us about this incredible story. Good morning to you, robin. Were about to tee this video up for our viewers again. If you havent asked already, you will soon ask how in the world did anybody survive that . Well, possibly due in part to the fact that the bystanders didnt wait for a rescue crew to arrive. They became the rescue crew. This is not a hollywood stunt. This is a reallife crash caught on Surveillance Video in florida. The footage shows the moments a car goes out of control and flips over and over and over. Leaving a debris field. We walked out and looked to see what was going on, looked like a war zone. Reporter the video also shows Good Samaritans rushing to the rescue. One even brings a fire extinguisher to fight the flames. I just immediately did what everybody else was doing and if there were enough we could flip it. Reporter working together, they used good oldfashioned manpower to turn the car over and pull the manut. The windows were completely crushed. The frame was bent, couldnt get the doors open, so that was pretty much the main lead in my opinion of getting the guy out of the car. Whenever we flipped it over i noticed it had a sunroof on it and immediately i jumped on top of the car and i figured thats how we were going to get the guy out. Reporter after bystanders performed the rescue, emergency crews airlifted the driver to a nearby hospital. Its crazy that, you know, that car did flip so many times and that actually was somebody in there that actually survived. Whoo. Survived, conscious, not clear about his condition but in the hospital this morning, nobody else was injured. Hit a couple of cars, but theyre trying to figure out what in the world caused that. How is that possible . How they jumped into action like that. All right, t. J. , thank you. Lets go back now to ginger. Possible Tropical Storm youre talking about .

But first, the very latest on the worst balloon crash in u. S. History. 16 people were killed after their hot air balloon caught fire in texas, fell from the sky. This morning were learning more about the victims and the crash. Abcs david kerley is in lockhart, texas, with more. Good morning, david. Reporter robin it was about this time of morning when that flight took off and as the balloon was descending it hit these power lines that you see behind me. Everybody on board was lost. This video obtained by abc news showing the final journey of the hot air balloon flying over texas, just minutes later it would fall to the ground in flames killing all 16 aboard. The balloon took off outside of austin, texas, traveling for eight miles before suddenly exploding. You could see that they were just stuck. The flames that go into the balloon, they were coming on and going off. Reporter the sunrise flight was delayed for 20 minutes with clouds and fog in the area. Investigators say the balloon hit the high tension wires as it was descending. Among the passengers, 34yearold newlyweds matt and sunday rowan. Sunday bought the hot air balloon ride as a gift for her army medic husband. When i heard that there were no survivors, we knew we had lost her and matt. Reporter matt texted his Volleyball Team shortly before the flight, saying, this has been rescheduled a dozen times for weather and i didnt think it would happen. The couple posted pictures of their day from helping to set up, taking off, even posting parts of the flight. The last picture, posted 12 minutes before the end. Another couple on the balloon, joe and tresa shafer. Their family telling abc news the couple cherished spending time with their kids and grandchildren. I went outside and seen a flame and the high line. I went on down there and it was this basket underneath the high line burning. Reporter the bodies were all found near the basket of the balloon. Investigators have gathered 18 cell phones, cameras and ipads which they hope will help enable them to piece together the final moments of the flight. The pilot of the balloon is said to have many years experience. He spoke about his love of flying to our abc station ksat. It ees being a pilot or passenger and crew. I wanted to be a pilot. He loved what he did. His utmost priority was the safety to his passengers. Reporter the ntsb is calling for more regulation of this industry pointing out that in just the past five years there have been 60 incidents involving balloons. Those cell phones and cameras, all those devices will be packed up, theyre going to be sent to the ntsb lab in washington and theres real hope among those investigators that on those devices are pictures or videos showing the last moment of the flight and solve this mystery. Robin. All right, david, thank you very much. Joining us now is robert zumwalt, hes a member of the National Transportation safety board whos helping with the investigation in lockhart. Sir, thank you very much for your time this morning. What more can you share with us about the investigation at this point . Were trying to put together a time line for exactly how this tragic event unfolded so were making Good Progress but we still have a long way to go. You say the launch was delayed Something Like 20 minutes because of fog. Is weather being considered a factor . Well, weather is always something that we look at and were not exactly sure why the flight was delayed by approximately 20 minutes. We are going to interview the ground crew today and thats one of the very questions we want to find out is, was there any particular reason why this flight was delayed . And the fact that it made contact with a power line. I know youre looking into that. Certainly were looking at the power lines. Its pretty suspicious that the balloon ended up right below the power lines. Power line strikes are a factor in about 15 of ballooning accidents. And speaking of ballooning accidents, you said yesterday that this type of balloon may have been involved in another crash. Can you elaborate . There have been two other accidents involving this specific type of this balloon but there are 110 of these balloons registered in the United States. Two years ago the ntsb warned that Something Like this could happen and you wanted them to tighten regulations, in fact, you said yesterday you called their response, quote, unacceptable. Had they heeded this warning could this tragedy have been avoided, sir . We do feel that in a general sense there needs to be greater oversight for air tour balloon operators. And we do feel that the regulator has a responsibility to provide oversight when people are exchanging money to go for a ride. There needs to be a greater level of oversight than there currently is. One more question i want to ask you, is it safe for people to go up in a hot air balloon . Is it safe to go in a hot air balloon . In a hot air bquestion. Any time we defy gravity, theres a certain risk associated with that and unfortunately the tragic events of saturday show that sometimes that risk is greater than were willing to accept. But youre not saying people should not go up in a hot air balloon . I would suspect that riding in a hot air balloon would be a wonderful way to spend a lovely morning or a lovely evening, but it is important to make sure that for one thing that the weather is good before we go. I think thats very important. Were not saying that the weather is, indeed, a factor here, but its certainly one of the things that the ntsb is looking at. Well, thank you for the work that you do with the ntsb. We appreciate it very much. Take care. Thank you. And were certainly thinking of the families. We are. A lot of questions before you go up. Okay, were going to move on now, switch gears to a scandal surrounding the newly crowned miss teen usa. Shes under fire for using offensive language in a series of old tweets and shes now apologizing. The Organization Says shell get to keep her title. Abcs linzie janis has the details. Miss teen usa 2016 is texas reporter this morning, the newly crowned miss teen usa at the center of a twitter scandal. Miss teen usa. Reporter not long after taking home the title in las vegas saturday, karlie hay coming under fire after a series of racist tweets from her social media account came back to haunt her. The tweets dating back to 2013 show hay using the n word repeatedly while writing to friends on twitter. The former miss texas teen taking to social media admitting she has used the language publicly in the past. And its something shes not proud of and there is no excuse for, citing personal struggles as the cause. The tweets causing an online firestorm. Many expressing their outrage. Former miss teen usa Kamie Crawford called out hay, questioning why she left the tweets up knowing she was competing for the crown. Crawford tweeting, if you win any pageant first things first. Clean up your page because if youre under 21 you shouldnt be drinking and if youre white the n word aint your word. Overnight, the Miss Universe organization defended their winner saying she will keep her crown and that the organization is committed to supporting her continued growth. The pageant was already facing backlash for the lack of diversity among saturdays finalists after the top five was revealed to include only blonde white women. For good morning america, linzie janis, abc news, new york. Yeah, that was a surprising lineup right there. Lets go over to robin and you got a guest over there.

Our team of insiders standing by live for more on this mornings top stories and nick watt is here at the table with us. His story in just a moment. Good morning. Good morning. Loved you on the overnight this morning at 4 00. Thank you. But first, lets start with alarming new security concerns in rio four days before the olympics begin. There are fears isis could target the games with a dirty bomb and reports that the International Atomic Energy Agency has sent sophisticated detection equipment to brazil and joining us none other than espns jeremy schaap. This is something. This is very weve been talking a lot about zika and other things but i mean what are the security concerns right now over there in rio . Well, there are a lot of security concerns, robin, in rio right now but we understand theres not a lot of substance to the dirty bomb threat. Thats mostly theyre doing their Due Diligence if there were such a threat. However, there have been Credible Threats made on jihadi messaging channels targeting the games. Theyre taking that very seriously. Remember the olympics are a vast target. Theyve been targeted before. And making matters worse, the rio organizers, they just fired the company that they hired just a month ago today to hire 3,000 Security Officers to work outside the venues. They werent getting the job done and theyre going to be replaced by police and military. What a mess. It is a mess. You got to wonder whats next. You got security threats. Zika. You got the water, dirty water right now. The doping scandal. Facilities arent done. What does this mean for the games . Well, you know, george, we talk about this often. Right before the games, are they going to get it done . That was the story, of course, in 2004 in athens, beijing 2008, sochi 2014. But never before as you suggested have we seen so many problems plaguing one olympics but when the games do get under way, assuming there is not some terrorist attack, something awful happens, most people will be focusing on the action. We just hope somebody doesnt get sick, something terrible doesnt happen, but when the games start people want to see the competition. That is true. Fingers crossed that is true, jeremy, thanks very much. Lets move on now to a backlash brewing over a new matt damon movie. Trailer for the great wall it shows him fighting a dangerous force outside the wall in china. Getting criticize a little bit. Want to bring in Larry Hackett former editor in chief of People Magazine. Hes getting criticized by constance wu most prominently from fresh off the boat and said we have to stop perpetuating the racist myth that only a white man can save the world. This is a thing called white washing, not the first time its happened. No, not the first time its happened. There have been cases recently, emma stone was cast in a movie as a half asian, half hawaiian woman. Tilda swinton has been cast in a new movie and Scarlett Johansson in a movie based on a japanese character and all these roles should be going to asian actors so theres actually the casting of the asians and she points out in the tweet that the white person, the white man has to come and save people of color and this is perpetuated over and over in these films and shes calling it out. Larry, going back to the oscars, even before that, theres been a lot of conversation about the lack of diversity in hollywood. Is there any impact thats having at all . Well, you have to see what happens now. You know, even the complaints at the oscars about, you know, just white people being in these films, the real decisions have to be made in places like the grill and studios if movies come out. I think constance wu is doing the right thing but you have to keep the pressure on and its only going to change if the studios start to make pictures with people of color. Doing it at the oscars is just a little too late. All right, larry, thank you. Now to that recordbreaking and deathdefying stunt, skydiver luke aikins freefalling from 25,000 feet. Wait for it. Without a parachute. He lived to tell the tale. So did nick watt here with us now. Lets look at the moment. Because he had people with them. They had safety chutes but he continues to freefall. See there, like, so the guys around you all have the chutes but you dont. How dangerous is this . Of course its very dangerous. I mean, listen, robin, hes nearly five miles up. Hes jumping out without a parachute. Im not sure we can say that too many times. He is going at terminal velocity, 125 miles an hour, and hes aiming for a net thats about a fifth of the size of a football field. Its like george jumping out of a plane dressed in a coat and tie. And he just makes it. I mean now his mom was too scared to watch. His wife was there. His 4yearold son was there. And you saw him at the end there just twominute fall last second flips around and gets in that net. Not right in the middle but mercifully close enough. By the way, on live tv. All on live tv. There was a controversy whether or not he had to wear a chute. After the fall, this is what he had to say. I mean im almost levitating. It is incredible. This thing that just happened. The words i want to say i cant even get out of my mouth. It was all these guys, everybody that made this happen. How did they make it happen . How does it work . He is a guy whos been skydiving since he was 12 years old. Hes done 18,000 jumps but even he, when he was first asked to do this two years ago, someone said, luke, i think you should jump out of a plane without a parachute. He said no way then the idea was in there and, you know, the near impossible for a guy like this, irresistible. He did it. Incredible. Could it be a future olympic sport there, jeremy . I surely hope not. They got enough ways to get in trouble. We dont need had. We dont need this. I dont like it. What a sane answer from jeremy. Jeremy doesnt like it. I want to know how you practice for Something Like this. He did. He did with a dummy and the dummy fell through the nets. Yeah, all right. Nick, larry, jeremy, thank you very much. Coming up in just two minutes, our hot shot of the day. We hear from the swedish cop making headlines for nabbing a robber while sunbathing. Something tells me you dont want to miss this.

We begin with donald trump firing back this morning in his feud with the muslim parents of an american soldier killed in iraq. It all began during an interview with george on sunday when trump seemed to question the sincerity of the khans who appeared in the democratic convention. Trump then questioned the silence from mrs. Khan during that speech. In response mr. Khan said trump has a black soul and this morning khan claimed trump is missing the empathy needed to be a good leader. Well, guess what trump fired back on twitter saying, this story is not about mr. Khan who is all over the place doing interviews, but rather radical islamic terrorism and the u. S. Get smart. And then trump tweeted this morning saying, mr. Khan who does not know me viciously attacked me from the stage of the dnc and is now all over tv doing the same. Nice. A new National Poll finds Hillary Clinton getting a postconvention bounce. She now leads donald trump by seven points.

Reporter amy, good morning to you. This is an Historic Town here for 250 years since that revolutionary war. Just take a look. The river is actually on the other side of these buildings and in some cases were told the floodwaters actually came from under the buildings and over so thats why youre seeing so much destruction. A piece of video that shows this human chain, people forming this human chain to rescue someone who was swept away by these floodwaters. She was in one of those cars and back out here, maryland, i can show you one of those cars here. This was just what happened here to so many cars, 180 of them. And they were all taken away. They were all towed but clearly a lot of rebuilding here, not sure if any of these buildings will stand. Amy. Incredibly devastating. Gio, thank you. Another parenting alert this morning about the pokemon go craze. A new study warning that the game which sends players outside to snap up virtual critters could lead your children into a dangerous trap. The study published by lawmakers in new york found 73 of local sex offenders addresses were within less than a block of items featured in the game.

We reached out to makers of the game for comment and have not received a response yet. Well, more children are being rushed to the hospital because of injuries suffered on a trampoline.

I reckon the funniest character is captain boomerang. Yeah, this one right here. Yeah. Got a million laughs. One of the weirdest. Thats for sure. So tell me about this text chain. You guys had like a group text chat. Who do you chat about . Again, its a family show. You know, the squad texts and pretty much probably 60 to 80 times between 9 00 p. M. And 3 00 a. M. It goes off, so we kind of all keep it in touch with the things that are going on. Theres actually nothing we can share from that. No, the thing with the suicide squad is this group was perfectly cast. Like everyone in this group with their characters was so beautifully and perfectly cast and what i love, when you look at this cast, its the picture of america, you know. Thats for sure. Its like all the different races, creeds, colors. This is not miss teen usa. You went there. Good for you. It was right there, george. I really love that about this film. And people are particularly excited about the suicide squad, like, you know, that doesnt really happen a lot. You seem surprised. No, i really i really am. You know, ive had a couple in a row that didnt particularly have this kind of energy. You know, so this is this one is exciting. Back to being willy. We have so much more fun with willy and the cast here and theyre going to reveal some behindthescenes secrets, apparently not what they text each other, but first lets head back to ginger. Im right over here. Im right over here. Yes. I went with only the top half of your outfit, by the way, Margot Robbie because the bottom i wasnt about to do. Family show, right. So lets go ahead and talk about that weather forecast. I think playing crazy must have been so fun. I want to do that every day and i can get you crazy eyes. Lets go ahead and look at the forecast then. Western weather, we talk about those fires, youve seen some of the pictures out of montana and california, wildfire danger is up but in the monsoon area its on. Flash flooding in parts of arizona and, of course, in parts of new mexico. All right. Thats a look west to east. Im just going to keep coming at you doing this, getting crazier and craizier by the second. Thats right. All right. Thats the big picture. Good morning, i am meteorologist mike nicco, look for sunshine inland by 11 00, and mostly sunny around the bay and clouds at the coast. 70s around the bay and 80s inland. 50s at night and 50s and 70s and 80s during the so, have i done it . What else can i do to be crazy . Love it. You can do just introduce yourself as harley quinn, nice to meet you. I love it. Harley quinn, nice to meet you. Thats it. All that weather brought to you by the u. S. Postal service. We cant wait to hear more from you. Robin. It is crazy up there. All right, ginger, thank you. Now to a gma exclusive. John f. Kennedy jr. s closest friends are revealing what he was really like out of the spotlight. Its a beautiful new documentary, i am jfk jr. Heres a look. Lived his life the way he wanted to and was able to deal when people would recognize him. I liked that reserved thing about him and easy to relate to. His tentacles, his love reaches out from the grave. Its still here now. Joining us now, rosemarie terenzio, the executive producer of the documentary. She was jfk jr. s close friend and wrote fairy tale interrupted. Great to see you again. Thanks, great to see you too. This looks lovely. I havent had a chance to see it yet but you said its to introduce him to a new generation. Young people who dont realize who he was. He we lost him at 38 years old and i think if he knew that he would want to be remembered. And its important for young people to know his place in history. Absolutely. And some close friends, we see the list of people who are a part of it. What are we going to learn, those of us who do know johnjohn. Hell always be johnjohn to me. What are we going to find out. Well, i think one of the most surprising things was the eclectic group of people he associated with from ann coulter, mike tyson, cindy crawford, robert de niro, you know, its a group that you wouldnt expect to be associated with him and he just had an amazing way of relating to so many people in so many different ways. And he was so approachable and just attracted people. So disarming. So disarming. And i hear he had quite a little sense of humor. He would play with your phone. Oh, he used to answer the phone at my desk and hed answer the phone and say sh, george magazine. Theyd say, is john in . Hed say, who is calling and hed say this is john. No, its not and then hang up. He loved it. He loved the joke. Always practical joking around the office but he loved answering the phone. Must have seen just all different sides of him working with him like that. Yeah, yeah. So, what, rosemarie, do you want people to come away after watching this documentary . I think the lesson you get from this from john, its more important to be good than it is to be great. And i love that. Its a tribute to a good man. What do you miss most about him . Oh, so much but i think his wisdom. I mean theres so many things especially in the Political Climate that i would love to get his opinion on and know what he would think and what he would do and how he would cover all of this in george magazine. Oh, yes, speaking of george magazine, i mean, somebody that influenced him or i shouldnt say influenced him that he help me out here. George stephanopoulos was sort of the colonel for the idea that became george magazine. Come on. No, i mean, at the time george was, you know, this young, interesting guy who was in the middle of the political why do you say was . He still is an interesting guy. He is but at that time in the political pop culture realm george was the guy, you know, he was right there with the president and he was so young and we were all so jealous. So john jr. Was influenced by that . Yes, he saw that piece of politics and pop culture merging right at that moment. Well, thank you very much. Now we are not going to be able inform now that he knows that and take claim named after him. Well leave it at that. Rosemarie, always a pleasure. Thank you very much. Thanks for your love and devotion and cant wait to see the documentary and jfk jr. Airs tonight on spike tv. Coming up the suicide squad cast is back. Ooh. Theyre spilling some secrets. Come on back. Hey, angelo, this is the exterminator you called for your rat problem. Accounts looking a little thin. No one gets paid until what needs to get done gets done. No, thats not the rules. No money, no honey. There he is. Will smith in suicide squad and now he and the squad are back. I have to start with you, joel. I noticed something on your arm. It says skwad. Swkab. Thats a real tattoo . Yes. Its a real tattoo and a real mistake. Wait. How many of you got the tattoo . Statistically it was like yeah, i was covered in scales. Seriously. Theyre on their ankles. Its something else. And obviously i did that one. You made that one . Yeah, thats mine. You can tell. Youre going to remember that. I believe we have established that this is a fun crew to be on set with. So why dont we find out a little secret behind the squad. Do a little bit more digging, shall we . Yes. Really want to go there . Im not scared. All right. Adewale, lets start with you. A lot of people are going to see you in the croc suit and think thats cgi. Set us straight. It is or isnt. Well, i can testify five hours. Not cgi. No, we had an amazing aesthetic team headed by Chris Neilson and david, the director was insistent on not making this character cgi because he wanted an actor to bring the soul of the character out. Wow. So we spent five hours a day, you know, sometimes depending on the angle we were shooting, sometimes three hours but maximum was five. They would spray paint it, you wear it for 12, two hours to take off. And look what we got. Look what you got. It was incredible. Took it seriously too. He actually ate an actual person to prepare for the role. Yep. We thought that was real actor commitment. Yeah. That was method. Hes croc. Hes accountable. What can i say . Understood. Jai, i want to say your eyebrows are coming in nicely. Dont they look good . Quite nicely. Not as nice as this woman right here. Queen of the brows. I got clippings and i attached them to my eyebrows. So you actually shaved your eyebrows for the movie. I did, yeah, yeah. My goodness. I looked like cro magnon i had a quite pronounced brow for a number of months. I think it works. What people dont realize when you do things like that for a role like we first saw him, we were like, yeah, were going to be committed to this, and jai came in, and his eyebrows were shaved. We were like, ooh. Ooh. Because you ever see when a dog gets freshly shaved. Thats how i walked into the room just like with my tail tucked. Right. Hey. When you do that, you shave them and you see them in the movie but while we were shooting on the weekends at the club, his eyebrows were shaved. It doesnt end there. It doesnt end there for six months. It was like, hey, buy a drink for that sad guy over there. I was apparently emotionless. It works for you. Margot, this is your second movie with mr. Will smith. Can you tell us a secret about will smith that we dont know . Hmm. A secret about will. No, she cant. He when we first met, will didnt know how to swim. Ooh. And you have taught him. I was insistent that he get in a pool. And he still doesnt know how to swim. Right. He did lessons. He did lessons. Listen, i grew in the city of philly. There wasnt a lot of swimming pools. For an australian to hear that, thats the crazest thing ive ever heard. Get in a pool. No, im going to learn. As a black man, we dont swim. Right. I didnt want to be the one to say it. We dont swim. Not a lot of swimming. Do you . I know how to swim. I didnt want to say that. I didnt. We could go on and on. Thank you so much for coming and having so much fun. Suicide squad hits theaters.
