tv   Anderson Cooper 360  CNN  April 22, 2014 11:00pm-12:01am PDT

11:00 pm
>> ask the countries to certify they have looked at the radar tapes and they have searched. >> appreciate you joining us. i'm don lemon. "ac 360" starts right now. the entire search effort could be about to take a major turn. the teenager who says he flew 2300 miles the hard way next to a landing gear. we will get details on what he was doing at the airport hours before getting on the flight and where he was really trying to go. a week dust since the ferry disaster began with breaking news out of south korea. so many of the high school
11:01 pm
students were believed to have been in that cafeteria. tonight, there's another piece of evidence that did not have end to this way. the latest one south korean boy's desperate call. help us the boat is sinking, he said. his fate is unknown. he is missing. the timing of his words is stunning because he said them long before helicopters were launched, before rescue ships arrived, before an evacuation was ordered and before the ship's crew even got on the radio and raised the alarm. help us, the boat is sinking, he said. the boy said these words after picking up his cell phone and dialing the korean equivalent of 911 three minutes before the helm's first distress call went out. the same thing happened on the costa concordia. that is one development today. this there are several. the latest discovery of more dead bodies. what's going on with the effort right now? i know the death toll has risen pretty dramatically today.
11:02 pm
>> it has risen to 128, anderson. it's still a frantic search. you can tell just by looking over my shoulder. if you can see, there are a number of divers who are parked right at the spot where the sunken ferry is 65 feet below these those buoys and the yellow crane you are looking at. the orange inflatable, some are not filled with people because the divers are underwater right now. this is dangerous. this is very arduous. they are feeling their way through the sunken ferry. they can't see more than foot in front of them. combing through this area inch by inch and because they can't see, they are worried about their own safety, as well because they could be hit by floating furniture. the navy did say they have six divers who they have treated for pressure issues. they, anderson, have been seen inside pressure chambers in order to be able to continue to
11:03 pm
dive. very difficult and dangerous task still happening here off of jindo island. >> there were more arrests today of crew members, correct? >> yes. two more crew members bringing the total number of arrests to nine. this is looking more like a criminal investigation every single day. we got a little clarity from the crew members about what happened in those final moments. the big question, why weren't the lifeboats deployed? well, one of the crew members said he or she could not reach it. the button was too much away because the boat had already listed to its side. the question why didn't you hit it sooner? we don't know that. the other thing we are learning, crew members are saying it wasn't that they hit anything. it was that the balance of the ship felt wrong. anderson. >> the ship's behind you seem widely spaced out. why is that? >> because we're looking at
11:04 pm
now -- it has been a week since the accident happened. take a look. you can see there are a number of ships all around us. some of those ships, especially the blue ones, have trawlers out to their side, large nets. they are going back and forth across this area. why? because of bodies drifted out to sea. that's a type of horror that this country simply says it cannot stand. they want to bring the bodies of these 15 and 16-year-old children back home. anderson. >> appreciate it. i want to bring the panel james staples, retired navy s.e.a.l. s.e.a.l. brandon webb is joining us as well. captain, let me start with you. the idea that a young man who is presumably among the missing aboard the ship was able to call korean authorities and sound the alarm three minutes before a natural call from the ship came. does that surprise you? >> absolutely. disheartening.
11:05 pm
shows the intention on the crew's part which will go back to the training. we need to find out where the captain was at the time the call was made. to be fair to him we have to know if the captain was on the bridge at that time. i hasn't had a time line so i can't say but disheartening especially when a young boy, makes an emergency call over a seasoned captain. >> is there a procedure for calling authorities? i read that it's the captain in terms of the ship personnel, the captain has to make the distress call, is that true. >> generally that's true. the captain will put the distress call. it is usually a mayday call. >> so somebody on the bridge would wait for the captain to make that call. >> it would depend the captain were incapacitated at some point f. the captain had been killed in an accident somebody else would have to make the decision and it would usually fall to the second in command, the chief mate.
11:06 pm
>> in your experience, you are very much in tune with your ship. so even in your compartment you can sense and feel if something is going wrong and call up to the bridge. >> absolutely. anyone who has been at sea for a length of time. even if they are asleep in the bed they will know if something happened to the ship, if it was a sharp turn or ventilation or vibration of the ship started. you are part of that ship if you have been on for a while. you really know your vessels. >> kim, we have video of the life rafts and we should point out they are rafts not lifeboats on the ferry. you can see not all of them are deployed. the crusade today they tried to make it to the rafts but they were slipping and couldn't. what does that tell you? >> it seems to conform with everything we are hearing from crew members that have been rescued that the captain waited
11:07 pm
too long to recognize the danger the vessel was in. the alert to evacuate the ship wasn't given until the vessel was already listing at five plus degrees. what you have to realize is that with this ship, unlike some other ferry ships that you have, for example n the baltic where you have lifeboats and life rafts, in lifeboats you can put crew in to the life rafts and lower them in to the sea. with the life rafts, they have to be manually released from their latchings and pushed in the ocean where they would deploy using co-2 cartridges. >> they are scrunched up. in the image we are showing they don't look like life rafts and you say through co-2 they inflate. >> that's right. they don't inflate on the deck. they have to be pushed over the side of the ship which is some ten meters, 33, 35 feet from the water line where they would then
11:08 pm
deploy and the passengers and crew would have to go down a gangway to the water line, or in a worse-case situation, actually throw themselves off the ship and swim to the life rafts. so life rafts are a far more precarious way of evacuating from a ship than a lifeboat. the ship didn't have lifeboats. >> the idea they have life rafts rather than lifeboats, would you prefer to have lifeboats on a ship? >> that depends. that depends on the distance it is running. i have been lifeboats before a life raft. lifeboats, like the guest prior to me said they can be mounted on the vessel. you can enter the lifeboat on the vessel and release them from inside the lifeboat. it is an easier way to get off the ship. with the life rafts they are in a metal container in a cradle and they need to be physically lifted and thrown off the vessel. it is more difficult procedure. then they can have an
11:09 pm
embarkation ladder to climb down or jump in to the sea. little more difficult to get in to a life raft than lifeboat. >> brandon, i think we got you back. the divers have made it to the cafeteria. we believe that's where a lot of those who have not been recovered yet may be. is there any way that survivors could be found at this point given it's been a week. could there be a air pocket a week in to this? again, i'm told we don't have brandon. we are learning the ship did not make a sharp left turn, captain. that it made what they call a j-turn. have you heard that expression? >> that's the first time i have ever heard the expression a j-turn. there are two types of turns, a round or williamson turn. a williamson turn is generally done if a man falls over the side of the ship and it is to take the stern away from the
11:10 pm
side the person fell under the ship so they are not underneath and chopped up by the propeller and then turn to pick up the survivor. >> a turn like that wouldn't be why it would list like that. >> he had a stability problem with the ship. i would be concerned about the stability when the vessel left the original port. >> we're told there were no passenger safety briefing for the passengers. you say that could have to do with the current rules, changed after the costa concordia accident but they are not in effect until next year. >> there was with an international convention that korea is signatory to that established safety procedures that included briefings of crew, number of lifeboats and rafts on the vessel. in this case, we know that as a consequence of the costa concordia, she left port and was not obliged to give a safety briefing, how to evacuate ship, where to find your life
11:11 pm
preserver, where your station would be until within 24 hours from her port that. was changed after costa concordia and now safety at life at sea is you must gave safety briefing prior to the vessel departing or as she is departing. here's the thing. that doesn't go in to affect until 2015 and that's very little solace or help to the people who have lost their lives on the sea wall. >> more with our panel and get in touch with them as well and let us know what you think. tweet any questions that you have using the #ac 360. >> they are making their way through the ferry finding only bodies. more now on the underwater ♪ ben!

more now on the underwater search. the sunken capsized ferry deck by deck, cabin by cabin divers doing dangerous work with help from remarkable technology. randi kaye shows us what they are seeing. >> reporter: if you are wondering how robots may help to search for passengers on board the south korean ferry, watch this. you are looking at a mini rov, a remotely operated vehicle, snaking around a sunken shrimp boat off the coast of glouster, massachusetts.
11:16 pm
when it comes to ship wrecks, this machine is a workhorse. it can stay underwater for days at a time, maneuvering its way through tiny openings where human divers either don't fit or it's too dangerous for them to go. >> to go forward, you will use it -- it is intuitive ten user friendly. to back up go this way. >> like a video game. >> exactly. >> rhonda is an rov pilot and diving expert. she works for a company that builds these rovs. this robot is directed by an rov pilot at the surface. it moves at two knots per hour. and even in murky water or at night they can see. they have lights and special low-visibility cameras. if that's not enough, they have sonar, too, which can pick up images up to 400 feet away and feed them back in realtime. >> so you can see the stern of
11:17 pm
the vessel. the back of the boat is that square shape. that's where we are aiming right now. >> reporter: a simple turn of the knob on the side of the controls and rhonda sends the rov for a deep dive. she rolls it back to return it to the surface. whenever this mini rov is used it is lower by a rope line that you see there. this is only feet deep or so but if this were deployed to search inside the sea wall ferry that wouldn't be a problem. this mini rov can actually work in water as deep as 1,000 feet. keep in mind, divers can safely go down safely only about 130 feet. and these robots, they can swim upward inside of a ship, too just as divers in south korea are doing to reach the cafeteria and upper floors of the doomed ferry. >> if you want to get to a higher level on a ship or ferry like the third, fourth or fifth level, could the mini rov climb?
11:18 pm
>> yes. they would have to have a good idea of the blueprint of the vessel. it can be disconcerted especially in something where it is flipped. stairs that would normally be on the bottom will be over your head. >> if anyone is found, the mini rov is equipped with a grabber, strong enough to pull a human being out of a sunken ship on its own. >> you are actually with the rov. can you show us more about it? the technology is incredible. i've never seen this. >> it is fascinating. this is one we were working with today so we saw it firsthand. this is one of five thrusters on the rov and that will send it down and bring it back though surface. over here is the video camera. this is the grabber that i talked about in the piece. what is interesting is they come in all kind of sizes and shapes and different functions as well. some grab items which is what a
11:19 pm
grabber does, others can cut things, others they have can tie a line on to a vessel if it is a small vessel and pull it out of the water and others can be used to recover bodies. but in terms of what this would be doing in south korea in the ocean there, the first thing it would do probably pull out the furniture and large debris i'm told that would be blocking the divers and make it safe for them and the next mission is some sort of recon to go around the ship, the ferry to see what is there and that's that way divers know where they are most needed and can assess the situation better. >> emotionally harrowing undersea operations with our panel. and back with brandon webb, the former navy s.e.a.l. we weren't able to talk to before. let me start with you. we hear about the debris in the water, the blocked passageways. how useful is an underwater vehicle like this? >> it's a tremendous asset. anytime you have a rescue operation in open ocean with visibility near zero, it's
11:20 pm
incredibly tough for these divers just to maintain their position, let alone figure out where they are going. having a device like that is a tremendous asset to speed up the search. this is a massive ship over 500 feet, or just about 500 feet in length. it is an incredible job these guys have to do under harsh conditions. >> a lot of them volunteers. it has to be so disoriented to be down there. i'm a diver, to have that low visibility to see a foot in front of you, to have all of this debris. to have human beings bodies trapped under amidst the wreckage. can you describe what driving under these conditions is like? >> we do a lot of diving in ports where you have similar conditions, near zero visibility and a lot of times you lose track of what's up and down.
11:21 pm
>> really you get disoriented in that way. you can't tell what is up and down. >> absolutely. >> a lot of the diving is on rebreather. so there is no bubbles. you get disoriented and sometimes follow the weld of the ship's seam to find the surface, to find yourself, to get up on the surface. listening to the conversation earlier, i -- as i understand it, the third mate was at the helm of the ship. i grew up working on charter boats as a kid, before i joined the navy to be a s.e.a.l., i was about to test for my captain's license. it really seems from what i know on the time line the captain was on the bridge close to 20 minutes and just didn't make a decision. as a parent myself, listening -- hearing about the kids making those phone calls to their parents, it just seems like indecision on the captain's part. >> captain staples, there was plenty of time for evacuation or at least for mustering. the ship didn't go down in a matter of minutes.
11:22 pm
>> without a doubt. there was plenty of time to get the life rafts deploy which should have been done. to have a young school child make a phone call to an emergency place before a seasoned captain, that should tell you something right there. the captain was very indecisive. >> is something like this rov going to see any better than a diver? >> it potentially can with the sonar capability. but again the limitation is not only because of lack of light but the amount of silt down there. i applaud the use of this rov because we have to be realistic. we are entering in to a phase that is more recovery than it is rescue. this is almost a week in to the event. because of hypoxia, cold injuries, because of the lack of hydration. all of this really points to a fact that we have to look at a risk analysis for the divers.
11:23 pm
this is extraordinarily stressful on these individuals. i know navy divers that have been involved in rescue efforts in the past that were much shorter and less stressful than this had to have psychological counseling because it was so disturbing for them. at this point risking lives when you have technology available instead is i think a good move on the part of the south korean government. >> what they are going through and the heroism of them to do this -- and they are doing it around the clock. captain staples, good to have you on. just ahead, breaking news on the underwater search for flight 370. the bluefin in the final stretch. how much of the target area is left to scan and is there a plan be? and more about the teenager who stowed away on a hawaiian airlines flight including his intended destination. it was not actually maui. ♪

breaking news tonight, ten meanwhile aircraft, and 12 ships will help in the search for flight 370. the search could get an entirely new focus. more on that in just a moment. as you know it has been six weeks now that searchers have been looking in the indian ocean for any site of flight 370. some family members and family members hope that maybe legal pressure can get some help from the national transportation safety board, preventing the lawyers from contacting people who lost loved ones in the a plane crash for 45 days. the time period has now passed. the families can file suit against boeing. as for the search effort itself, remnants of a cyclone have hampered efforts from the air at
11:28 pm
least. the bluefin-21 submersible has covered 80% of the targeted search area. so far found nothing. michael hole holmes. what do we know about the search they're running out of territory. >> reporter: yeah, literally, the focused search area that we have been talking about over the last week or so as you point out, more than three quarters of it covered and still nothing found. no sign of mh-370, no word on the data results from the flight 370 mission, but the previous efforts have turned up nothing, anderson. >> and what happens next if this next 20% gets searched and there is nothing? >> it's not looking good, is it, for that particular area? the search leaders told us off the record they were confident they were in the right spot given the acoustic signals they picked up. they are not going to give up. already discussions on what is
11:29 pm
next. we mentioned the area of interest 300 miles by 30. bigger than the current one. that could be next, though nothing has been decided at the moment. discussions between the australians and malaysians at the moment on issues like who would handle any debris if it is found, the delicate issue of human remains and how best to deploy resources, whether to bring in, for example, more resources if the search area widens, anderson. >> appreciate the update. joining me is richard quest, david gallo, also mary schavio, an attorney and now represents families and victims and david soucie. richard, you are in kuala lumpur. the news that they are working out an agreement for key aspects of the search and recovery.
11:30 pm
portions dealing with handling debris and caring for human remains should be fairly straightforward. there's a portion that deals with widening the search. what would that look like? >> that, of course, you are quite right, anderson. that's the interesting part about it. that's the part where they have to reappraise the evidence from inmarsat. the pings they have already heard and decide whether or not they still have the same credibility and confidence in that data. if they do have confidence in it, the same level, how do they expand the search? probably northwards up the arc towards the sixth full ping, but to do that would be a fairly dramatic escalation of the search and almost certainly require more assets because that's several hundred miles long. >> david, if -- david gallo, if
11:31 pm
the bluefin doesn't find anything in the search area, is it possible that it missed something in the targeted area, or is the technology so good there's no way it missed something in this area? >> anderson, when you are searching with sound and sonar, at this depth and terrain it is always possible to miss something. i'm sure they are careful and looked at every spot twice, possibly overlapping zones. i would have a hard time giving up on this site so soon. i'm anxious to see what pans out in the next couple of days. >> you are saying even if nothing is found in the rest of the 20% targeted area you wouldn't necessarily give up on this targeted search area. >> i don't know how you give up on this area if they are so sure of the pings. i don't know how you walk away or steam away from this and head up the arc. i understand that's maybe in the future. not knowing what went on up
11:32 pm
there, from what i do know i would have a hard time giving up without more harder look at what they may or may not have missed or should they make this bull's eye bigger. >> mary, to that point, if the satellite data is accurate and richard's data indicates it is and the pings were from the black boxes, the searchers are presumably close. >> they are certainly close. we have heard a lot of interesting things about the ocean and the sounds in the ocean and the effects of pingers, et cetera. there's a lot of things they can dean unknowns. for example, one thing was the frequency on the ping. have they tried, have they put a pinger in and checked the frequency, of what happens when the battery runs out? does it really degrade to 33.5? once this search area is exhausted, they have time to do other experiments, but one expert had commented because of certain layers in the ocean, sounds can travel much farther than ordinary. so they would have time to literally put a pinger down and
11:33 pm
see how far it travels and how far they must expand the search. there are a lot of things they can do, not just refining the inmarsat data but expanding their knowledge of pingers in this part of the ocean. >> the australian chief said he expects ongoing data analysis by a team in kuala lumpur to result in further refinement of the search area within the next couple of weeks. how much more refined can they get? >> you know, i really don't see they could get much more refined. remember, the ocean shield went directly to that spot, picked up the pings. they were confident in the data and it's proven out because they did find that. i'm with david gallo. to give up on that area is counterintuitive. i'm confident and so are the people i have spoken with about the pinger. the small distortion of that pinger can cause the frequency to change that much. i'm still confident it is there. we just have to search better and deeper somehow.
11:34 pm
>> richard, last night on the program you read some questions that family members put to authorities trying to get answers. a lot of them were sensible questions, basic questions that i was surprised authorities haven't released -- i'm not even talking about to the media but to family members. how likely is it to happen, questions like what sort of casing are the elts in, the electronic transmitters. >> absolutely, anderson. that's why the next meeting in beijing where the authorities have said quite clearly they are going to bring in technical experts. i think even that meeting they do not start providing some hard answers. i know mary's had much more experience of this sort of anger of families when they turn up
11:35 pm
expecting answers than the authorities will deserve all the wrath that befalls upon their head. on the question of the search areas and all of the things that we talked about just now, what happens next, of course, is they have the ocean shield. they have everything there in a hurry because of the 30-day deadline. they have done the searches that they needed to do within those parameters. but now if nothing is found, they do have that little bit more luxury of time to do the sort of experiments that mary is talking about, to try to rethink things differently. there isn't a 30-day pinger limit about to expire. they haven't found in the smallest tightest area. i think that is what we are talking about when we talk about a reappraisal of what happens next. >> i want the thank everybody on our panel. up next more with michael holmes. he will take us to a lab in australia that has the technology to unlock the secrets of the black box if and when it is found. and the teen boy who flew

david soucie. as much as the data may tell what happened they may not tell why it happened. >> it is mostly designed to tell you whether a command from the pilot did actually happen the way it was intended to. a command from the pilot, a switch that was turned on. the switch is not only noted it was moved or initiated but checks to make sure the intent, like for example the moving, if you move the control and it is supposed to move so many degrees it won't detect how much it moved. in that sense if it was a mechanical failure. if the autopilot didn't function the way it was supposed to. that kind of information is valuable an would tell you what happened from a mechanical perspective. why it happened is something else and takes more digging. >> in terms of how long the data

can remain useful if they are on the bottom of the ocean and not found for years, can it be too long? as long as the compartments are not compromised? >> as long as they are retracted from the ocean properly. kept under the pressure and in the ocean water and properly rinsed under pressure and removed, it could last indefinitely. years and years down the road. >> so you have to keep them under the pressure they are founded initially. >> you typically would, yeah. the fact if you bring them up too quick it changes the molecular structure of the components and oxygen bubbles, nitrogen can build up. so you have to have a controlled environment to change the pressure. you have a box they go in to to bring them up by baskets but it is better to package them at the ocean pressure, and do it in a laboratory to release the pressure. >> thank you very much. up next, how a teenager who
