The American Airlines captain coming to the rescue when an unruly passenger attacks a crew member. Sit down. Sit down. Enough. You dont put your hands on my Flight Attendant. How he took control and stopped what could have been a dangerous confrontation. We do say good morning, america. Good to have lara back. Thank you. We have a lot of news to get to. Those new polls showing Hillary Clinton surging as donald trump battles attacks from both sides of the aisle over his comments about that military family. Yeah, continued through the day yesterday. We have an exclusive with miss teen usa. Karlie hay is here live taking on the controversy about those offensive tweets. Severe weather on move, missouri roads underwater and alerts now from las vegas. You see missouri right there. Alerts from las vegas to st. Louis and ginger, of course, is tracking it all. There are pockets of flash flooding. Isolated storms you get 6, 8 inches very quickly. Ocean city, maryland, the picture behind me and that video out of missouri, east of kansas city and now that line has moved to the east. There are warnings this morning, 4 inches plus have fallen west of st. Louis. Were watching there. Also in the southwest with that monsoon flow, 3 plus inches falls in hours and you got trouble, 90 development for this. 90 . It would be earl if it got through parts of belize and mexico. I know youre keeping an eye on it. All right, ginger. That unprecedented warning about the zika virus. The cdc advising pregnant women to avoid a popular neighborhood in miami. So far at least 14 cases have been transmitted by infected mosquitoes in that area. There have been more than 1,600 travelrelated cases across the country. And more than 400 pregnant women have been infected. Abcs dr. Richard besser is in miami and has the latest for us. Good morning, dr. Besser. Good morning, robin. You know, now that theres proof that zika is continuing to spread in this neighborhood, Public Health has done something theyve never done before telling some people to stay away but with all the travel people are doing, they dont believe this will be the last time that happens. Here in this florida neighborhood, just one square mile north of downtown miami, 14 cases of zika have been transmitted by local mosquitoes and the cdc has this warning for pregnant women. Stay away. Apparently the first time it has issued such a travel warning in the continental u. S. Ever. We believe theres still individuals that are at risk in that onemile square radius. Reporter so Health Officials are testing thousands of residents here in the wynnewood arts district, one of the busiest neighborhoods in the city, praying for mosquitos, delivering zika prevention kits, bedding nets and treatments for standing water. Just doing a neighborhood sweep to make sure theres no mosquito breeding. Reporter many of the infected had no symptoms identified from doortodoor testing. Health officials are expecting more cases will arise. The virus most dangerous for pregnant women. Have you taken any steps around your home to cut down on mosquitoes . Patio furniture, everything inside. Because if it rains and you have your chair, you know, sitting up, it can have standing water. Just making sure none of my plants have water thats just been sitting there. One of the big worries here is that the mosquito appears to be resistant to the pesticides theyre using and will make control efforts difficult. Whats surprised me talking to people here, all the concerns from Public Health, people seem to be going about their lives and dont seem to be changing behavior. Robin. All right, dr. Besser, thank you. Joining us now with more is the director of the cdc, dr. Tom frieden. Dr. Frieden, thank you for your time this morning, and this is so alarming to a lot of people because it is a fairly small area, the warning, but it is the first travel advisory in the continental u. S. Since polio which has raised a lot of eyebrows and people want to know do you feel that youre going to have to increase the area . Only time will tell, robin. This is really a new phenomenon. Weve never seen a mosquitoborne illness that could cause a birth defect and right now there is this very specific area north of downtown miami where zika is spreading in that community so were advising pregnant women not to go there and pregnant women who have to live or work there to do Everything Possible to prevent mosquito bites. Four cases were announced on friday and then ten more on monday and some are saying why wasnt an advisory issued earlier . What we realized over the weekend was that the mosquito counts were not coming down as we had liked so we havent achieved good Mosquito Control in that area. And we now have our top experts on the ground working with the top folks in florida to figure out what more can be done to knock down this very difficult to control mosquitoes. I know you said that Mosquito Control there in miami has not worked as you had hoped. Why not . Well, there are three different possibilities. First, it could be that the mosquitoes there are resistant to the insecticides being used. Unfortunately, theres no quick test for that. It can take a week or three or four weeks to figure that out for sure. Second, it may be there are breeding sites that havent been eliminated. Standing water where mosquitoes continue to be churned out and, third, it is also the case that this is a really tough mosquito to control. This is an unusual neighborhood or an emerging neighborhood. Its mixed use. It has industrial, business and residential and that makes Mosquito Control very complex. Dr. Frieden, no treatment, no vaccine as of right now, and the consequences could be quite dire so this is something that people really need to take seriously. It is and its not just about this neighborhood. All over the u. S. , wherever the mosquito is present, 30 states, generally in the south of the u. S. , women who are pregnant really need to do everything they can to protect themselves from mosquito bites and thats difficult, putting on deet multiple times on exposed skin, wearing long sleeves and long pant, staying indoors, all these things reduce the risk of mosquito bites. And we cant hear those recommendations enough. Dr. Frieden, thank you very much. Thank you very much. You take care. We havent had a travel advisory in the continental u. S. Since polio. This is really unprecedented. We move on to the race for the white house. In you polls showing a Big Convention bounce for Hillary Clinton as donald Trump Doubles down in his fight with the muslim parents of a fallen soldier and steps up attacks on Hillary Clinton. Comparing her now to the devil. Abcs tom llamas is on the trail with trump in harrisburg, pennsylvania. Good morning, tom. Reporter george, good morning to you. Donald trump calling Hillary Clinton the devil is a first and this comes at the same time hes in the middle of a growing fight with fellow republican, billionaires, even the president over a back and forth with the family of a fallen u. S. Soldier. Overnight, donald trump warning of the possibility of a rigged election. And im telling you, november 8th we better be careful because that election is going to be rigged and i hope the republicans are watching closely or its going to be taken away from us. Reporter at a Campaign Event in pennsylvania he took his attacks on Hillary Clinton to a diabolical level, saying this of senator Bernie Sanders endorsement of clinton. But he made a deal with the devil. Shes the devil. Reporter but its trumps attacks on a gold star family that spoke out at the Democratic Convention that continue to get him in trouble. Have you even read the United States constitution . Reporter senator john mccain calling out trump saying just because trump is the gop nominee doesnt mean he can, quote, defame those who are the best among us. And the vfw Veterans Group saying to ridicule a gold star mother is out of bounds. Trumps running mate governor mike pence put on the spot during a town hall by a mother whose son serves in the u. S. Air force. Will there ever be a point in time when youre able to look at trump in the eye and tell him enough is enough . Reporter that mother getting booed from others at the town hall for asking her question. Captain khan is an american hero. [ applause ] and we cherish, we cherish his family. We cherish all of our gold star families. Reporter president obama also alluding to the controversy praising all the gold star families. That our gold star families have made a sacrifice that most of us cannot even begin to imagine. Reporter and fellow billionaire Warren Buffett whos supporting Hillary Clinton saying this about trump. Have you no sense of decency, sir . Reporter still trump says he has a right to defend himself. Horrible things were said about me. I think it was, frankly, very tough so all i did is respond and i will always respond. Reporter as trump fights with that gold star family the New York Times has a front page investigation looking into the numerous deferments, draft deferments during the vietnam war by donald trump, mostly for education but one of them for bone spurs in his heels. Now, this came at a time when trump was a very active athlete and had just picked up the game of golf. Trump has said that condition has since healed and he has acknowledged some guilt for not serving. George. Okay, tom, thanks. Lets talk to our political analysts matthew dowd and jon karl. Jon, let me begin with you and that the New York Times account. One of the things trump has said many times in the past that he received deferments and was ultimately kept out of the draft by a high lottery number. The New York Times calls that account into question. It sure does, george. Trump has said that he had a phenomenal draft number and thats why ultimately he was kept out of the war. But this New York Times investigation says he had five deferments, four for education, that last one for those bone spurs, according to the times would have made it virtually impossible for him to get drafted. Okay and, matt, we now have a series of polls showing Hillary Clintons bounce coming out of this convention and a lead in the six to eightpoint range. Yeah, you know, weve saw we saw donald trump get a slight bump, but it now looks like Hillary Clinton got a bigger bump. I think it has less to do with the convention than this controversy that erupted around donald trump. All selfinflicted. He should worry less about the bone spurs and more about shooting himself in the foot over and over and over again. Put on your political consultant hat. Youve worked for both democrats and republicans. If donald trump called you in what would you tell him to do to fix this . The first thing i would say is dont be yourself but that would be i think difficult in the course of this. He has to get some level of discipline and quit reacting to people. He has to get on his message and quit reacting to every Single Person that he seems to get some level of slight in the course of this. When hes doing that, hes capping himself, george. Its not that hes losing votes hes capping himself at a level he cant win at so in order to win hes got to get disciplined and stay on message. Jon, we saw him last night talking about the prospect of a rigged election. Yeah, this is something else. He said this before. After the 2012 election, he had a series of tweets that he said that this was clearly the result of a rigged election, romneys loss, but hes setting up the possibility of if he loses, saying it was because he was cheated. Okay. Jon karl, matthew dowd, thank you very much. All right, george, we move on to new questions about the deadliest hot air balloon crash in the u. S. That has killed 16 people. The pilot had been convicted of drunken driving four times. Abcs david kerley is in lockhart, texas, with more on this. Good morning, david. Reporter good morning, robin. A foggy morning here in texas. You can see the memorial thats been set up, the families were here at the site yesterday. There are no indications that the pilots past had anything to do with this crash. But it raises broad questions about licensing as investigators try to figure out why this balloon crashed. This morning, the covered remains of the balloon and gondola are in dallas for further examination as we learn more about the past of the pilot at the controls. 49yearold skip nichols had been arrested four times for drunk driving and served time in prison twice. A former girlfriend said he was a recovering alcoholic. Balloon pilots are not required to hold an faa medical certificate to fly. But they are expected to selfreport convictions. Safety Officials Say thats not enough. Should they be held to a different standard than somebody who is flying an airplane for hire on air tour operations or helicopters, so, so we do see this discontinuity. Reporter investigators say evidence suggests after flying above the clouds and fog the pilot was trying to land when the gondola hit and then ran along the top transmission lines bursting into flames and fallen about ten stories to the ground saturday killing all 16 on board. Now, investigators had hoped the ground crew, the tracking crew would actually be able to tell them whether or not the conditions were like this when the balloon hit these power lines. Unfortunately, they knew the pilot was landing but couldnt find the balloon. They actually drove around for an hour looking for it. Thank you. Amy with the mornings other top stories starting with an fbi employee accused of working for china. A long of time fbi technician pleaded guilty to acting as a secret agent for china. Kun shan chun worked in the new york office and accused of using top secret clearance to leak the identity of a special agent to the chinese government. He is expected to face two years in prison. The u. S. Military expanding its air campaign against isis launching air strikes in northern libya targeting isis vehicles and tanks. President obama approved that military action at the request of the u. N. Backed government in libya. More air strikes are expected but no u. S. Ground troops. In this country, five people have been killed in this charter bus crash north of fresno, california. The bus reportedly swerved before hitting a sign pole came which crashing through the windshield.

Good samaritans were trying to free him when police arrived. They were able to smash the window, cut his seat belt and untangle his legs pulling him out of the car just as it slipped completely under the water there. Well, a sign of the times at mcdonalds. The company says it will remove artificial preservatives from chicken mcnuggets and some breakfast items and no longer use High Fructose Corn Syrup in buns saying it is responding to consumer demands. Just dont mess with the fries. I agree, robin. That is a very good tip for mcdonalds. Simple. Finally this is going to make everybody feel good. You dont have to feel guilty the next time you forget to floss. The government is acknowledging there is little evidence flossing prevents gum disease or cavities. A study by the Associated Press describes evidence of its benefits as weak and unreliable. I mean i still think its hygienic but apparently you dont have to floss. Especially not while youre driving, please. You just made so many peoples day. I know. The guilt of years and years of not flossing suddenly gone. Poof. Poof. Good to have you back, lara.

We just saw at the end of linzies piece you say youre not proud of what happened but i was checking out twitter and i think what a lot are waiting to hear is a clear apology. Yes, and i am very sorry. Its embarrassing. Its something im ashamed of and ive grown up from that 15yearold girl who used that type of language. Its Never Acceptable and now i know how hurtful it is and it hurts me to know that at one point of my life i used that language. I said that and its not me. Do you understand how it happened . I do. I mean, at that age i was being a follower. I was trying to fit in with my friends. The word was thrown around and the music i listened to with the friends i hung out with and i had no guidance so it was kind of a careless mistake and when the tweet got brought back up, i was kind of like embarrassed, ashamed and just amazed that i actually at one point in my life thought it was okay to use that word because its never okay. You know now its not an excuse. Its not an excuse. There is no excuse to say that word ever at all. And what do you say we saw that in the piece as well. Some people think you shouldnt have been able to keep the crown. A lot of people think that but ive grown from then and ive, you know, i blossomed into the person i am today and i think that i can turn this message into a positive message because there are people that use that word and its not acceptable ever. What have you learned from this . Ive learned that through every obstacle theres something positive that can come out of it and i can use my title to do great things and hopefully people learn from my mistakes because it is a big mistake, its something im embarrassed about, something that will stick with me and has definitely affected me and im just going to learn from it and try to move forward. Take us inside when this was happening. Were you prepared to lose the crown . What were those conversations like . I was like i said, i was trying to stay positive. Ive tried to stay positive through this. Ive been through a lot of obstacles and this is just another one that im going to have to go through. It was an incredibly bad mistake. Its and how do you plan on using now the platform you have to try and help fix this . Well, you know, people go through these obstacles. Ive gone through my own personal struggles and everyone has their own personal struggles but that doesnt give you an excuse to use this language or any bad language at all and it goes to show that it can come back and hurt you and it has definitely hurt me on the inside forever saying it and it has hurt other people as well. Good luck with it. Thanks, karlie. Thanks for coming in. All right, george. Now to a remarkable survival story.

Time now for our big board. Our team of insiders standing by with more on todays top stories. Our man t. J. Is here at the table. Yeah. We know its big. Oh, its big when i come here. Yeah, well get to your story in a moment. First lawmakers are taking aim at pokemon go. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo trying to keep potential predators away from it announcing hes restricting registered sex offenders on parole from playing after young gamers were found chasing pokemon in the vicinity of known excons. Our chief legal analyst dan abrams is here to weigh in on this. This is really some serious stuff here and Governor Cuomo went on to actually send a letter to the makers of the game asking how they can help keep sex offenders from playing the game legally. From that standpoint, is this effective . Yeah, well, look, first of all im more concerned about the people that arent registered than the ones who are registered when it comes to Something Like this. And secondly, you know, theres been a lot of talk, oh, you know, kids ended up half a block away from a sex offenders home. That to me feels like politic, what is real and is a real concern is in the game the lure aspect of the game, the fact that you can actually pay to get people to come to you and there have already been potential crimes committed by people trying to lure people in the middle of the night to remote places. Thats a concern with regard to protecting our children so in that sense, it is legitimate but i would expect as the case with any time there are additional restrictions on sex offenders, that there will be some sort of legal challenge to it. Is this something, i mean, i know we can try to legislate it but shouldnt the watchdog really be the parents in these cases and at the end of the day . It has to be first and foremost the parents but, look, Governor Cuomo in particular has really taken a lead when it comes to sex offenders online, making sure that theyre accountable. He started a big law in new york which now requires them to sort of register all of their emails and any time theyre online, et cetera, and so i do think thats a legitimate issue. But in the end, its going to be the parents. You have to know where your kid is going, where are they playing, et cetera. And whos talking to them when theyre playing is a big, big scare for all of us parents in this electronic age. Dan, thanks so much. We move on to daredevils dangling off skyscrapers all for that photo. Oh, my gosh, im getting dizzy looking at that. The makers of red bull are launching an eightpart series investigating the mindset of socalled urban explorers, adventurers who put their life in danger to capture the perfect shot and t. J. Holmes joins us. Just looking at these photos, this is dangerous. This is literally one wrong move, one way or another by a couple of inches and theyre going to fall to their death, period. Its that simple. These are urban explorers, urban exploration or urbex. Heres this platform following them around. Thats the one you didnt see here but watching these, a trailer, will make you sick to your stomach. But they travel around, they go to these skyscrapers, they go to places that are offlimits and make no mistake these guys are good for what they do, they train at this but also good at trespassi trespassing. These guys are breaking the law getting to a lot of places where theyre going. This is their showcase, our new generation of explorers. How about red bull . You can put a disclaimer and say, kids dont try this at home but are they in any hot water . They havent gotten in hot water yet. The series Just Launched so well see what happens down the road. They gave us a statement saying, hey, the risks and negative aspects of this lifestyle are documented. Were not just glorifying it but at the same time they put out another statement saying, you know what, the explorers of old were seen as the renegades back then and celebrating these guys as this generations explorers. Im not a lawyer but playing one on tv. We got a lawyer here i forget sometimes. What say you . I think it would be tough to hold them responsible. If these people are going out doing this on their own, sponsored by red bull, if red bull is actually, for example, if red bull had a camera person there, that person is trespassing too but in most of these cases theyll be using their own gopro or Something Like that i think it will be tough to hold them legally responsible. A lot of these explorers have a long arrest record for trespassing. All right, t. J. , dan, thank you. Big calories. Some of the biggest restaurant chains and the 26 winners of the extreme eating awards given out to the top menu items that hit more than they pack more than a days worth of calories and fat into a single meal. Oh, my gosh. Dr. Jen ashton wants to weigh in. We want to get to flossing in a moment and you have to floss after eating some of these meals. We say that they are the winners but these are some real losers, arent they . Saying winners, robin so heres the list, i feel like im reading the academy awards. Dessert, Buffalo Wild Wings dessert nachos weighs in at 2100 calories. Then you have cheese cake factorys Fried Chicken and waffles benedict. Why not put two high calorie dishes together, 2,580 and uno pizzeria and grills whole hog burger, 2,850 calories. Obviously this exceeds the amount that an average person should eat in the entire day. Its 2,000 calories a day, correct . Thats about what it usually is . Its weight and activity dependent but not 2,000 calories a day for us at our weight so this is definitely extreme eating. Is there any nutritional justification for having any of these items on the menu. So kind of you. Just trying to play devils advocate. Nope. But we have to remember that how did i know she would say that. These restaurants are in the business of selling food and they wouldnt have these things on the menu if customers didnt buy them. We did reach out to these chains, by the way and point out they all have healthier options on their menu and these are in theory made to be shared with four other people. Ill share with my friends at the table. We have to ask you this about the new amy brought it to us federal guidelines. Flossing is overrated. Unnecessary. Weve been told its now unnecessary. No benefits. Come on. Im a horrible flosser but, again, it comes down to risk versus benefit so dentists are going to still say do it because gum disease is a major problem. And its a low risk activity but do we need to evaluate the evidence . Absolutely. Look at dans face. Dan, have you been flossing for nothing . Im obsessed with flossing. I mean the fact that youre now telling me it may not make a difference, the amount of time and floss i have wasted over the years on this. I am not surprised that dan is obsessed with it. Horrible. More trips to the dentist for me. Im going to dig into these. I dont buy it. All right. Thank you, guys. Want to thank dan and dr. Jen and t. J. As always.

S. , women who are pregnant really need to do everything they can to protect themselves from mosquito bites, and thats difficult, putting on deet multiple times a day on exposed skin, wearing long sleeves and long pants, staying indoors, all of these things reduce the risk of mosquito bites.

How was flying all night to do this . A little long. Not bad. No. A ton of sleep. Easy. How does it feel to be out and to be able to sit here on morning television, Good Morning America and say, yep, were together. It fees so good. Its so surreal. It feels like we thought it took forever and now it seems like it flew by. Its the weirdest thing in it. How was it for you watching the episode unfold . You wrote that really nice instagram, by the way. That was so sweet. Sitting next to her on the plane. He wouldnt let me see his phone. Nothing, nothing. Proofreading. Im glad i proofread it. You know how it unfolds and obviously in television there is some editing. So what was that like for you . I mean, i watched the proposal a couple of times and i was tearing up. It was such a beautiful moment then and just being able to watch it back was still so amazing and beautiful to see. I mean, i cried. So it was great for me. It was good to watch it back for me because i was like so nervous and didnt know exactly what i said. Were you happy with the way you i think it came out good. Maybe there was some editing. Clearly she was broken up. The whole robby the triangle. Yeah, you know, the whole time i just you got to compartmentalize your feelings so i was thinking about her the whole time and making sure i told her everything i was feeling. I didnt want to miss anything so thats what i was focusing on. Guess what i didnt miss, that ring, my goodness. Can we get a shot of that . I love it. Very beautiful. That is so stunning. Did you pick that out . I did. Thankfully it was an easy decision. I got some in front of me and i knew right away. He totally knew. I was panicking. I thought it would be down to two and im going to pick the wrong one. I just knew. You knew about the ring. How soon into the process of being on the show which you said was a leap of faith did you know, oh, my gosh, this is real . Oh, boy im in love with this girl. It was a few weeks in i knew i was falling for her but you dont want to get caught up in the moment so i was always trying to ground myself to make sure those feelings were real and then on our oneonone date in uruguay we had this moment on the boit back where oh, yeah, i remember the moment. I was with you. So do i where we just looked into each others eyes and i knew i was falling in love with her and it was just i couldnt help it from then on. How about you . It wasnt that long ago you said you had doubts before the proposal about this guy. So what changed . You know what it was, i think just being in that situation, its completely overwhelming as far as emotion, and i mean, ive never in my entire life dated more than one guy at the same time, so i dont know if anyone ever can imagine what thats like but when it came down to it, i knew that the moment that he proposed that there was no doubts in my mind. Thats great. And it was just such a great day for me but, yeah, incredibly emotional. Very tough. The same day that i got engaged i had to have a breakup and that normally doesnt happen. No, no, no. Not usually. Its not normal but we do so love it. You guys will stay and well talk fashion and ask you a couple more questions about the future so i want to hear right now im sure you want to just go to chipotle as you said.

Racy, very happy crowd here this tuesday morning. Feels like friday. Magician Penn Jillette is with us. 100 pounds disappeared by eating potatoes. He just ate a raw potato. The real thing. I dont know. Were going to find out. But first lets go inside to lara with the newly engaged bachelorette couple. You got it. Im with jojo and jordan. We have a couple of questions and then were going to talk fashion so i want to know, have you guys set a wedding date . Were thinking about it. Were thinking about it. Next year sometime. Were throwing around dates. Youve been throwing around the idea of eloping. Please dont do that. We want to he keeps saying, lets go to vegas. Were going to plan this one. You will . Any chance we could see it on tv . Theres always a chance. Chris harrison is very convincing. Yes. He is. And he loves you guys. Hes the best. Also a lot of people wondering who the next bachelor might be. You were so broken up when luke had to go. Yeah. Do you think that he would be a good choice . I think i mean, if you ask me personally, i think both luke and chase are great options. Maybe they could do a double one like they did with kaitlyn and brit, i dont know, but luke for sure. You know who i noticed shes not mentioning is robby. I mean, i think robby is a great choice too but i think when i sent luke home, america died. I mean, so there was an overwhelming amount of support and love for him and i totally get it. I was thinking about you. How was that . At the airplane hangar and seeing her hysterically cry and youre like, darn it, im in love with her, she seems very upset about this guy. Youll never understand. Very difficult. Is it complicated . Yes. All right. Wow, with that well go to fashion, i guess, and im not going to get the answer so you think either chase or luke. I think so. All right. The wedding, we dont know. Maybe on tv. Just a lot of maybes here. You guys, we have to work on this, but fashion, i can tell you for sure, so stunning. Every day i was like shes done it again. Always seems to know what to wear. And again today. Even when you were in a gaucho you were like that was my favorite one. So chic so lets talk about this outfit. This is an outfit you wore when . I love this one. So i wore this outfit for one of my oneonone dates in the very beginning of the season. It was a little dinner. I love it because i think i wore a ton of sparkle this entire season. This one was just a showstopper and i loved it. And it was great. The thing thats really neat, you worked with a fabulous stylist. Not everybody can afford a stylist like cary fetman. He is the real deal. His number i want because hes incredible. But you can also rent these dresses. Uhhuh. And thats a really great option. You can actually have jojos look but not have to spend the money on cary or the actual dress that you can only wear once. Its hard when theyre this stunning. So we want to show you another option. By the way, that dress retails for 265. It rents for 35. What a bargain then this yellow dress which im obsessed with. You didnt wear this on the show. No, i wore this for an us weekly photo shoot. Its so fresh and flirty. The color is amazing. I dont think you can go wrong with this one. Im going to give you the details. It retails 365. The designer is alexis. It rents for 70. So cute.

Robin. Very excited about your new show. Youve been talking to me about it. Cannot wait to see it. I know you want to share it. And i have something to share, as well, groundbreaking medical innovations. Some doctors are using Precision Medicine focusing on the individual, not the illness, to diagnose and treat diseases looking for answers in your own genetic makeup. Its something my company rocking robin productions is exploring in a new series launching today. Its called path to a breakthrough, and you can find it on webmd. I cannot wait for you to meet this little girl. She almost didnt get a chance to just be a kid. Her name is cara. She was a really happy baby. She was very lively. You blow me a kiss. Everything was spot on. Everything was even early in terms of her physical abilities. Yay reporter but shortly after cara green turned 15 months old, her parents kristen and clayton started to notice some alarming changes. Cara started having trouble just physically. She first started just being unsteady with walking. Slowly over time we noticed that her arms became weak. I broke it. Did you drop it . She got to the point where she was so unsteady walking and fell so often that she actually stopped walking. Reporter frightened and helpless, the greens sought out the advice of many doctors, but nobody had an answer. No matter how much we did, no matter how hard we tried to help her, there wasnt anything we could do to stop her from getting worse. Reporter the greens turned to a new cuttingedge medical approach called Precision Medicine, which focuses on an individual patients dna to map a diagnosis and a potential cure. Were looking at a person, their genetic makeup, the environmental triggers in their life and their lifestyle and were looking to that to focus therapy. Reporter dr. David goldstein was doing groundbreaking work with gene sequencing when he heard about caras case. Dr. Goldstein pretty much said were not leaving until we figure out whats going on with this child. When a child comes into the clinic and they have something seriously wrong, we can take a blood sample, and we can almost immediately generate that individuals complete genome and we can look through it to try to find the cause of disease. Reporter genetic sequencing which is the cornerstone of Precision Medicine has just recently become promising for patients like cara. They collected blood from me and my husband and from cara and sent it off to their lab. Reporter the sequencing showed that both of caras parents carried a gene mutation that affected caras ability to produce a protein which resulted in her having a severe vitamin b2 deficiency. After we received caras diagnosis, they did give us a treatment plan and it was high dose vitamin b2, which is a benign treatment. Reporter an oral supplement that would help cure cara of her symptoms. Cara is doing phenomenal today. She is now able to play with her toys. She can feed herself. Shes actually learning letters. What does that say . I did it. Good job. Dr. Goldsteen and his team, we credit him for saving caras life. Shes getting to be a kid and make up for lost time. Bye. Oh. Whoo slam dunk and were happy for cara and her family. Its just a sneak peek, one of five episodes premiering today, each one highlighting an incredible medical breakthrough. A man diagnosed with stage four lymphoma in the prime of his life, the doctor who helped him harness his own immune system for treatment and talked about that, immunotherapy, and the people coming up with this technology and the wonderful people who are fortunate to be benefitting from this and we are happy to be partnering again with webmd with this to share some Amazing Stories so itll be on webmd but i got to tell you guys to look at the individual and to treat the individual and not the illness is incredible. Its everything. And discovered something so simple to fix. Because my secondary condition was because of the treatment i received for Breast Cancer. Right, and what happened to you may not happen to me or anybody else. Exactly. Its treating the individual. Thats amazing and so critical for us all to understand that. Its not a broad picture. Yeah. And theres hope out there. I mean thats what we all need right now. These medical breakthroughs need to be showcased. Its fantastic. Very happy about that. Thank you. Penn jillette will be here in a minute. We are bac we are back now with the ultimate disappearing act from a master illusionist. Penn jillette lost 100 pounds and saved his life get this with a diet centered on raw potatoes at the start. The story is told in his book presto how i made over 100 pounds magically disappear and other magical tales. Well talk about it after abcs Rebecca Jarvis takes a look at his journey. Im penn. Hes teller. Reporter hes an iconic las vegas headliner and onehalf of the larger than life magic and comedy duo penn teller. But offstage there was one thing Penn Jillette could not make disappear, his extra weight. The 67 father of two tipping the scale at 322 pounds when his doctors discovered a 90 blockage in his heart. Committed to losing the weight fast, penn attempted the potato diet under a doctors supervision, eating only plain potatoes for two weeks straight then phasing in nutrient dense vegetable stews. The 61yearold dropping 75 pounds in just 83 days following this strict no exercise approach, a plan most experts disagree with. For the body to function optimally, it really needs a wide variety of foods that provide vitamins and minerals. You need to have fiber, protein, fats and carbs. Eating one food alone can be really detrimental. Reporter now down 100 pounds, penn continues to keep his meals light and occasionally fast for 16 hours straight, yet another controversial approach. His shocking total body transformation no optical illusion. For Good Morning America, Rebecca Jarvis, abc news, new york. And Penn Jillette joins us right now. Thanks for being here today. So we want to give everybody a sense of just how much you lost. I think we have your size 52 pants here. Thats what i was wearing well, thats just 17 months ago. You can see, am i smaller now . Can you tell theres a difference . Theres a huge difference right there but i got to tell you, when i first heard about this, i said this is nuts. How are you going to lose 100 pounds when you start off with two weeks of potatoes . The potatoes, first of all, they werent raw and they were thats an arbitrary thing. It was really important for me. Im not good at moderation. I want to do hard core stuff. I wanted to lose the sense of eating socially and lose the sense of constantly bombarding breaking the habit. Salt, sugar and fat. Just a way to lose a way to lose all the habits i had gotten into so it didnt have to be potatoes. They arent magic. I picked potatoes because its the funniest word. I could have chosen beans or just almost anything to give you nutrients but not much more. For two weeks you dont need that many nutrients. You can go you dont have to get a lot in. I had a lot of fat on me. I was eating all the time. I was just eating fat. I was surprised by the idea no exercise. Well, during that time, i mean i had to really stress that. I exercise now. But when youre losing weight you dont want to be bodybuilding and exercise is bodybuilding. It also makes not eating a lot easier. So how has it changed your life . Now youre a year in and lost the weight. Are you back to normal . Well, yeah, i eat very, very differently. You know, the thing is i dont respect moderation, so i had to do stuff really intense. What i was most surprised about was i used to consider myself a happy guy, and i look back on it now and i kind of sort of wasnt. I feel so great now. I have two young children. You feel that much different . Oh, its night and day. Its night and day. You know, i went in the vomit comet, you know, zero g. And theres this emotional feeling you feel when youre zero g. Youre very, very happy. And when they do the other side of the parabola and you get heavy, you do feel depressed. Those things are not figures of speech. Theres some sort of reality to it. I just feel lighter because im happier. Your kids are happier about it too. Theyre thrilled to pieces except they would rather my son says sometimes once in a while, you have to eat like a man and i do. Every two weeks well have a pizza but i dont crave it at all. Once you break that habit, its wicked easy. Incredible story. Penn jillette, thanks for coming in today. Thanks a lot. The book presto is out this morning.
