He makes it look easy right now. And the United States is on to the quarterfinals. This was a tremendous routine. This is a special edition of today at the Olympic Games with matt lauer live from rio de janeiro, brazil, and Savannah Guthrie live from rockefeller plaza. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to a split edition from rio and new york. Can weta can we start by saying its a Beautiful Day . Yes. Can we show you a shot of the most decorated olympian in history. It was a dramatic finish. Also it was the finish by the way, i think people are going to be looking for a long time. Today is also the final day of gymnastics. Final proved she is human, and lost his balance on the team and ended up with a bronze medal. But Laurie Hernandez, sha made the most, she nabbed the silver and they both hugged it out afterwards and we will hear from both of them a little bit. They have ups and downs. Lets head back to new york and savannah joins us now. Savannah. They are calling it the worst we have a birdseye view of the damage and destruction. Savannah, thanks very much. From a day that saw the u. S. Not winning a gold medal, first olympic day since beijing. You did mention the dramatic track finish and a slip from simone biles. There were airer and technical issuesthat made monday a day to remember. In the womens 400 meters, Shawna Miller diving. Now, felix had eyes on a fifth gold medal, over the line and the winner overcome with emotion. I just gave it all i had tonight. The dramatic race capping an already chaotic day in rio. Heavy rain delayed several events and over in the day an overhead camera broke away from its cable at the park, causing seven minor injuries. And then american Clayton Murphy took bronze. In pole vault, it was another bronze for the americans. And earning the u. S. Its first medal in the event since 2004, but for other olympians, it was a day of frustration and heartbreak. Francis will abelowtion disqualified. Round one of the 110 hurdles. Tearing off his bib as we left the track. His olympic hopes dashed. For gymnastics superstar simone biles, a rare misstep. Slipping on the balance beam nearly falling off. The 19 year old finished strong but it wasnt enough to come out on top. Heavily favored to win the event, biles came away with bronze while her teammate 16yearold Laurie Hernandez took silver. Her first individual medal. Edging out the americans. Sanne wevers of the netherlands. Biles will have another shot in the floor exercise. For mens Beach Volleyball, its the Phil Dalhuasser forced a tie breaker. But the brazilians rallied cheered on by their hometown fans. Brazil has beaten the unite Walsh Jennings will compete in the semifinals with jennings two victories away from her fourth straight olympic gold. Heres where the medal count stands this morning. U usa with a commanding lead. Its the last day of gymnastics including floor finals for the women. In track and field mens high jump final and Beach Volleyball, team usa the women taking on brazil. Semifinals. Lets go. Its midnight. Al and i were at the mens game yesterday. It was tough to watch. Brazil played well. Can we bring in somebody we love on this show. Allyson felix who was j Allyson Felix was just denied gold by the dive. Tkpweufplt morning and good to see you guys. Did you know who won at the end of the race . I was not sure, no. I was just staring up at the board trying to see how it was going to sort out. Take me through the last 10 or 15 meters of that. I just dug deep. This year has been about fighting and i was going to give all i had and fight and i did that and left it out there. Not every day you see a dive like that in track and field. Is that something you are used to seeing or does that happen just every now and then. Not too used to seeing it, but its not too common. From start to finish, you said i left everything out there. You have no choice. How did you feel during the it was not my best race. Felt like it got a bit away from me, and coming home i tried to give all i had and its outside my comfort zone and i am a sprinter and its stepping out what i am used to. You are the most decorated track runner olympian in u. S. History. You have been able to get your head around that title . Not quiet. Its something i am very, very proud of. Its been so many years and hard work and something that, you know, to be in the same sentence as Jackie Joyner that, its going to take time to sink in. Talk about the journey, because there have been ups and downs, and yet here you are with another medal in 2016. Yeah, its been a wild year, you know. In april i had a crazy accident in the gym, i had an ankle injury, and at that moment i thought that i was not going to be here at all. An today show on crutches a month and a half ago or Something Like that . Yeah, it was pretty crazy and then from then on my beloved chloe passed, my dog, and then just before i left my grandfather passed and it seemed like everything was happening. I have to say a lot of young girls look up to you and watch you, and the way you held yourself after yesterdays race, and what are you hoping to communicate to the young kids who are watching you . I hope that i just can get across that you are going to have obstacles and there will be adversity, but let your spirit shine through and keep fighting, no matter how the cards are stacked against you dont let it get you down. How many games now . This is number four. You have shown class every single time. Thank you. Yeah, you can clap. We are going to turn to drama in gymnastics. Simone biles and aly raisman will compete. American a record five gold medals ended on the balance beam. Shes so fantastic. So consistent. She started off strong. Beautiful. Then uncharacteristically faltered midway touching the beam. Seeing that mistake, dutch gymnast Shaunae Miller adjusted her routine doing something less difficult and winning gold. Crazy good. And biles got. How do you feel about it . Well, i am disappointed how i performed, not in the medal that i got because i should not have gotten any further, and i have to give myself props for that. Hernandez was the Silver Lining for team usa. Just 16 years old and competing in her first ever international meet, hernandez followed webers with a rock solid routine full of jumps, flips and turns, and walking away with her first individual medal. A silver. This was a tremendous routine. This is your first individual medal at the Olympic Games. When you did your dismount, did you think i think i got something here . Yeah, i have been training so hard and i did the routine i did in practican do you feel relieves, kind of . Yeah, that was the most nervous i ever was, and once i got on the beam i was calm. You were . Yes. I saw you wrap her arms around her and hug her with the big mega waut smile. Olympic exe you would think its her second time at the olympics. Im so proud of her. Friends from way back now silver and bronze Medal Winners with biles already looking ahead to her floor routine. One more tomorrow night. Do you feel good about tomorrow . Good luck. Good luck. Thank you. Look at you right in the heart of it after every competition . One of the most the parents show up, Laurie Hernandez parents. Tell me what you talked about after her win . It was just an inyesterday ma many. Just before she competes you hold hands and you do a little prayer circle oh, yes. Tell us why that is important . We think faith is everything, and we are so grateful and humbled for the experience, and for laurie to go out there and shine with the camaraderie of team usa and the coaches and we are so grateful for the opportunity for laurie to be here and just to see her big smile. Baby, we love you, girl. We love her, thanks for coming by this morning. We appreciate it. Thank you. Coming up, we will hear from aly raisman, and by the way you will see both aly and simone competing tonight during nbcs primetime olympic coverage starting at 8 00, 7 00 central. Right now we want to go to new york and check in with savannah. E to that desperate situation unfolding right now in louisiana. Some of the worst flooding in the u. S. In years triggered by nearly two feet of rain and this morning even more communities are facing a danger of new flooding. Nbcs Gabe Gutierrez is in baton rouge again for us this morning. Hi, gabe. Good morning. Reporter hi, savannah. The death toll has now climbed to seven. More than 20,000 people have more than 20,000 people have been rescued, and as we take a live look from the drone, many areas inundated, and the red cross calling this the worst fl super storm sandy. More communities are breaking for historic water levels as louisianas record rainfall moves downstream. This is an unprecedented historic flood event. The Army National guard giving us a firsthand look from the sky. Theres still plenty of water in wide swaths of louisiana, and the water in some places appears to be receding. The rain eased, but other areas are on high alert for rising rivers. Right now, we are over denim springs, and in some parts of the parish, it got rain. In just a couple hours we had 6 feet of water. Basically we lost everything. You know, other than our expected today but not enough to add to the flooding. The concern is the water already here moving downstream. Thousands of people are packing emergency shelters, and many schools are closed and roads, major roads, shut down, savannah. Thank you so much. Turning to the president ial race, Hillary Clinton and donald trump trading new attacks on the campaign trail and joe biden getting in attacks of his own. And trump is causing a stir with a proposal. Good morning, savannah. Hillary clinton will be campaigning here in philadelphia today where she needs to run up a huge vote to offset Donald Trumps strength elsewhere in pennsylvania. This critical battleground state. Donald trump is trying to shift gears. Extreme vetting. Going beyond his proposed ban on muslims now unveiling an test for immigrants. In addition to screening out all members of the sympathizers of terrorists groups we must screen out anybody that has hostile attitudes towards our country or its principles. She also lacks the mental and physical stamina to take on isis and all of the many adversaries we face. This man is totally, thoroughly unqualified to be president of the United States of america. While clinton leads trump in philadelphia and its bush, he is gaining in places like scranton. Friends should not let friends vote for trump. What collegeeducated men take a look at the facts. Take a look at what he is talking about. Take a look at what were talking about. In our new nbc survey, a majority of voters. Only slightly less unpopular ban donald trump. Andrea mitchell on the trail for us. Later today well sit down for an exclusive interview with Hillary Clintons running mate tim kaine and his wife, anne holton. For now, well for now we will send it back to matt, hoda and al in rio. We look forward to that interview, savannah. Thanks very much. You have more on the flooding back home . Yeah, more rain there and that rain will make its way up in the p and the front stretching from texas into the great lakes with low pressure running along it and flash flood watches for texas, 3 to 4 inches possible from mississippi into texas and that wet weather makes its way into the northeast, and not enough to alleviate the Drought Conditions but looking at two to three inches of rain, and we will get to your local forecast coming up in the next 30 seconds.

Its another spectacular one here on the beach in rio. Nice crowd gathering early in the morning before it gets too hot around here. You have to love the crowd. It keeps building. We have a lot to get to this half hour starting with todays olympic headlines in track. A wild end to the womens 400 meter. Shaunae miller of the bahamas pulled off the upset over team usas Allyson Felix by diving headfirst at the finish line. A silver for felix made her the most decorated u. S. Women in track and field history. We had a chance to talk to her in the last half hour and the First American woman to medal in the 3,000 meter steeplechase and a bronze for Clayton Murphy in the mens 800 meters. Great for him. It will be rowdy tonight because kerri Walsh Jennings and april ross will face the reigning world champs from brazil in the semifinals with a ticket to the gold medal match on the line. Well be listening to that. Well hear that all night long. Let us begin this half hour with a star athlete from team usa being forced to defend herself. Natalie has more on that. Good rning. Thats right. Were talking about Gabby Douglas she won gold here as a member of the final five but now facing rather Harsh Criticism sportsmanship to patriotism. As a member of the fierce five, Gabby Douglas won gold along with the hearts of millions and here in rio her graceful wins helped her team win gold. You go from peoples add ration to being the pwropbt of the criticism and hatred and its hard because her nature is so giving and kind. The backlash began when douglas caught up in the moment did not put her hand on her heart during the anthem. In response to a few tweets i saw tonight, i always stand at attention whenever the. The criticism intensifying after douglas was accused of not cheering on her teammates. I mean, at least act like you are happy your teammates won, crabbygabby. I never want anyon as i was jealous or wanted attention. Never. I support them and im sorry i wasnt showing it. The attacks leading to accusations of cyberbullying with supporters now rallying behind douglas online including actress and olympic Superfan Leslie Jones who had her own cyberbullying scandal. I heard gabby getting attacked on her page. Show her of love you swe she tried to push it off and not focus on it but in the end she couldnt understand it. And the way to respond to haters, guys, is to show your support and a lot of people now online doing it with hashtag love for gabby usa. And tweeting out yesterday my 3 year old announced her name is now Gabby Douglas rimes. Love for gabby usa. When you know Gabby Douglas, you know she meant nothing by any of that stuff. Caught up in the moment. Its tough to be a competitor at the olympics. Natalie, thank you very much. Lets get a check of the weather now lets get a check of the weather now from mr. Roker. We have been talking about the heat that continues in the east that we are seeing out west as well, and also take a look, we have a risk of Severe Weather today, isolated tornadoes possible, western new york and parts of pennsylvania, and were watching this 51 Million People at risk for severe storms later this afternoon and into late tonight. Pressure pumping up, and feels like conditions up and down the eastern seaboard will feel like well over 100 degrees, and a wildfire danger out west that continues as well, and the heat will continue to plague parts of california with their drought continuing as well. Thats what is going on around the country and heres what is happening in your neck of the woods.

And the heat indexes could be as high as 105 to 110. 94 coming our way for tomorrow.

Mens Basketball Team loaded with all those nba stars isnt blowing out the competition. Plus, a real cliffhanger. How natalie and jenna managed to pull that off. But first, these messages. Hey. Hi.

Were back with todays olympic start. The u. S. Mens Basketball Team has advanced to the quarterfinals. Theyll be in action tomorrow against argentina. You know what . They were actually busy on the beach on their day off on monday trying their hand at volleyball. However, theres a question following this team around. Why arent they dominating on the court . Nbcs keir simmons is here with that. Keir, good morning to you. Good morning. We get it, right. Theyre young. Theyre having fun. If theyre going to get serious, now would be a good time. The nba has some of the biggest names playing but the last three games have been close ones against mundane competition and that has some fans very quietly worried. They won every game. 10097 victory. Undefeated. The United States escapes with a victory. Are they just a little uninspiring . Should win gold. Coach k. Has to get it together. Expectations are high. U. S. Basketball has medaled in every olympic since 1984. This team confident ahead of the games. I enjoy competing and enjoy playing basketball. But barrel surviving threepoint nail biters against serbia and france. If our defense stays this bad as far as team usa goes, they could get upset in the medal round. Off the court theyve been team usas biggest supporters congratulating Michael Phelps, cheering at Beach Volleyball. Singing happy birthday to kerri Walsh Jennings. And theres so much else to do in rio. Sightseeing. Going to the beach. Even trying their own hand at Beach Volleyball with the locals while casually sipping from coconuts. Going into the quarterback finals this week, the team has scheduled more a week ago jimmy butler did put an Instagram Photo from here. Playing football. Wrong sport. And in a line outside of the nba house youre wearing a clklay thompson jersey. Big fan. We need you to make sure that they are going to bed early. Not drinking too much. I will. Thats a relief because their fans want to support my u. S. Team. Think gold should be a layup. The mens team could take a cue from the u. S. Women. They won their group games by an average of 40 points. Or they could look at how british Basketball Team has been doing. Youre welcome on our team any time you want. Should we bring in shall we bring in mike tareq yo. They need here they had 24 field goals in the first half. 22 of them were assisted. The womens team shares the ball. These guys do not. They play hero ball. They need to play better and work together. When you look at the outcome over france, serbia, australia, is this a team that hasnt gelled yet, . The talent is down. Now, they are tremendous players like Carmelo Anthony and kevin durant but they need to play within more of of a team system. Yesterday simone biles had that bobble. Did that take the pin out of the pressure so she can go on the floor tonight and say lets let this one go and have fun . She can walk away with four golds. Because she had potential and could win five because of what shes done on the way to rio, it almost feels like a bit of a letdown but four goals would be Something Special. Lets end on the dive in 400 meters yesterday. Allyson felix edged out by sche Shaunae Miller of the bahamas. You need to be all in to take a dive at the end of the race. We dont see it very often. American fans were disappointed, is that fair . However you get the torso there, thats the difference maker others people would put hands out to break the line. You do that a few times, its not really going to get your body back. Thats going to leave a mark. A real mark. A golden mark for her. Good for her. Bummer some of our olympic themed movies reveal.

Because sale prices as low as these dont happen every day book your low fare now at southwest. Com. Thats transfarency. clap, clap, ding here in rio were surrounded by spectacular sites but there are other places outside of the city. Keir simmons is here to tell us about had his trip to the amazon. Remember the movie where they fell in and died. The amazon, we went there in search of one of the deadliest predators in the water, the piranha. The amazon river spans the entirety of brazil flowing for more than 4,000 miles, 450 miles further than the mississippi. What youre seeing illusion. This is where two massive rivers come together. One black, one brown. They form the mighty amazon. Among the many animals, 3,000 species of fish. Some notorious. Were on a fishing expedition like no other to catch piranha. He now runs tours of the ancient river. Its like magic for me. Magical place . Magical place. Piranha will eat any meat even rarely humans. To attract these underwater killers, he mimics a distressed animal in the water. They like noise. This is less like fishing and more like hunting. Would it help if i cut my finger and put it in the water . Then those are some sharp teeth. Come closer and ill bite your face off. Day one over, we caught one fish and a hunter can only eat what he catches. She wanted to eat me. This is my revenge. Right. It tastes like cod kind of. Freshwater fish. Tastes like a freshwater fish. Not very much meat here. Very bony. Its day two and we try another fishing spot. This time i have more luck. Yes. All right i didnt think i would be able to do that. Looks like i wasnt the only one to target this fish. Piranhas prey on each other. Took a chunk hold it here. I think you should do this. I dont want to cause her anymore pain and i dont want to cause myself any pain. Our fishing expedition somewhat successful, there is a final surprise as i wade in he assures me there are no piranhas here but were soon surrounded by the amazons pink dolphin. They are rubbing against our legs. Its its credible. People here believe that these dolphins are princes. Dolphins are mythological animals for the amazon. According to legend after midnight they become the handsome boy to chase the girls and when blame it on the dolphin. They are no threat to us but it turns out the fish they eat include piranhas and in the amazon, every animal depends on another. The power and beauty of this river and its inhabitants both stunning and humbling. Wow. You had the greatest time here. Im just pleased they didnt send me fishing for dolphin and swimming with piranha. That was a great story. Straight ahead, surfs up. One of the most talented dogs youll meet here in rio and what happened when natalie and billy tried to catch a wave here. First, this is today on nbc. For the road. For the ride. For the meet. Yes for the match. For the fight. Go, go, go, go, go for the faith. For the early mornings. Long days. And late nights. For the love. Tuesday morning. We told you the International Olympic committee decided to include five more sports in the 2020 games. One of them is surfing. Before it arrives in tokyo, im scared, natalie and billy decided to hang 10. Not a good idea. Soccer may be number one sport in brazil but look at the beaches. Gorgeous. Surfing is another popular choice. We decided to take advantage of the situation and we got a lesson from two of brazils best pro surfers. Rio de janeiro is known for its beautiful beaches. And surfing is gaining popularity here so we thought we would give it a try. Have you gotten up on a surfboard before . I have. All the way, baby. We have the best of brazils surfing champions here with us today. Our are pro surfers and surfed some of the biggest waves in the world. We were hitting slightly smaller waves here in rio but only slightly. First thing is dry lesson. First of all, safety. If you fall, never fall headfirst.

Were crazy. Were going to blame it on rio. Lets there were some big waves. And a few attempts to get up. Finally billy had his moment. I found an easy way back to shore. Never, ever, ever, ever again. Clearly we didnt have a lot of success. We had to bring a dog to surf for us today. You got up. When you have a still photographer with you that takes a picture of the one moment youre up it lives forever so its hard. Its hard to get up there. Billy the bull bush. He doesnt quit.

Depends on the thickness of the meat. Ill just put it here. Its just sea salt . Nothing else. We spend so much time and money on good ingredients, i try to keep it as pure as possible. A little butter here. We have different varieties. Its a bit lighter. By the way, it makes it crunchy and delicious. It does. And its a very slow cooking process. Leave it here and jump to here.

From nbc news, this is a special edition of todays take live from the Olympic Games in rio de janeiro, brazil. Welcome to today on this tuesday morning, august 16th, 2016. Im billy bush along with al and nat live in rio. Our morning jam is als pick. Summer in the city. I decided to go old school. Where does it take you . Back to queens. Brings me zach to school. We were ready for the next crusade. Does it take you to oswego . Before that. It was never a hot time in summer. Im proud of you. Billy bush is playing hurt right now because you got a havent you learned if you Say Something on the break, its going to come out on air. You had a violent summer bug and youre on antibiotics and now things arent moving along so youre bloated right now. Lets tell america all about this. I am a soldier, man. Im fighting through this thing. No one knows that im in terrible pain. You are a bit of a hypochondriac. I am. In this case, you are ill. He was violently ill. Youre playing hurt. When you see billy walk away dont touch. He looks bloated. I look that way every day. Listen, everybody is talking about this awesome moment. Incredible finish in the women 400 meter dash. This has happened to her before. Can you believe it. Shaunae miller dives across the line. The chest is first. Felix is ahead of shaunae. Shes going for the gold. I didnt think that was legal. It is apparently. Surprising more dont do it. Its so painful. You have to be all in to do that. Allyson felix won the 200 in london. She was coming to defend the 200 in the olympic trials july 10th in the 200, a girl who will be competing tripped and fell felix so she couldnt qualify. That was an accident. This was on purpose. This is a sport that it happens. Theyve been there she leaves with a silver medal. One of the most decorated in track and field. Seven medals i believe. Incredible. I do have mixed emotions because i saw allyson when we first met in 2004 in athens. A picture of us together. My fathers family is from the bahamas. A good moment for the bahamas. Speaking of dramatic endings, a french swimmer was disqualified from the 10 kilometer swim yesterday. Look at this finish here. They are close to the buoy as you can see. The french swimmer in the white cap. She puts her right hand on the womans Left Shoulder and dunks her down and then reaches forward. I think she was playing water polo. They just swam 10 kilometers. Its 6. 2 miles. Thats crazy. Imagine you just swam that distance and then you get to the finish and then you do that. Why would you do that . Why would you not do that .

[heartbeat] the most decorated olympian of all time. 28 medals including 23 golds but Michael Phelps says hes officially hanging up his speedo and dipping his toes into retirement. He said that last time. I sat down with the legend in what he told me is his last olympic interview. We asked him about his previous quote retirement after the london olympics in 2012. I hated it. I wanted nothing to do with the sport i didnt want to end my career like that. I had to find the passion myself and i found that again and i had fun. This is how i wanted to finish. Michael phelps has done it again. He not only rekindled his passion for swimming but his passion with fiance nicole johnson. Weve gone back and forth. This is our third time together.

What great journey. Such a different guy than when we started. He had to. He brought his buddies down. All his buddies from baltimore came down and they were speaking out of school about him saying hes the worst golfer and the worst dancer in the world.

A connection between nature and man. Scientists researched the unusual relationship between the dolphins and fishermen, and obviously the conclusion is the dolphins swim to the area to get food, and many said they believe there is a higher power involved.
