twitter. tweet me @wolf blitzer. thanks for watching. erin burnett "out front" starts right now. mid-air mystery. could there have been a bomb onboard? >> aviation investigators see similarities between this disaster and other deadly crashes. ben carson now the front-runner. donald trump on the attack tonight. our special report on the people battling to keep carson number one. let's go "out front." good evening, i'm erin burnett "out front" tonight, mid-air explosion. a u.s. official telling cnn a military satellite detected a mid-air heat flash just before

metro jet flight 9268 won't down. suggesting a possible explosion onboard the airbus jumbo jet. russian officials releasing this drone footage of the crash site. 224 people killed in this crash. this as isis is claiming responsibility for, quote, bringing down the jet. in this five-minute video, the terror group says, "we are not only going to shoot down your planes, but we will invade your country and slaughter your people." u.s. intelligence officials say isis has given no proof it was responsible, but investigators are desperately trying to determine if terror is to blame. egyptian authorities on the ground looking at the largest remaining piece of flight 9268, the tail you see here. all angles on this story tonight. ian, what is the status of the investigation? >> reporter: egypt says they are wrapping up the field investigation and those black

boxes, they are at a lab being deciphered. tonight, there are still more questions than answers. a catastrophic inflight event, possibly an onboard bomb is one of the leading theories into what caused metro jet flight 9268 to break apart over egypt's sinai desert. investigators are studying a heat flash detected by a u.s. military satellite suggesting there was a mid-air explosion at about 30,000 feet, just 23 minutes into the flight. while egyptian authorities confirm there were no distress calls from the cockpit, a russian news agency reports that there were unexpected and uncharacteristic sounds on the cockpit voice recorder the moment before the plane disappeared from radar. >> if we are going to the bomb theory, it could have been the airplane starting to separate in pieces. we are just talking about a

sound as opposed to a voice. >> reporter: in addition to examining the debris, authorities are also focusing on the victims' remains. late today, a source close to the investigation told russian media, no signs of explosive impacts on the body of the victims have been found. today, isis released this new video showing its fighters and terror group claim they brought down the plane. something egypt's president dismissed outright. >> there is a propaganda it was crashed because of isis. this is one way to nail the stability and security of egypt and the image of egypt. >> reporter: but issuing a warning to employees not to travel in the sinai peninsula until investigators solve the misery behind the crash of metro jet 9268.

egyptian officials are urging patience. they say it could be a week or up to a month before we learn exactly what's on those black boxes. then possibly learning what brought down that jet. >> 2 you very much. i want to go to washington. rene, what are you learning about this heat flash that ian referred to picked up by u.s. military satellites? >> u.s. military sources are telling cnn's barbara starr this u.s. satellite detected this heat flash while the plane was still in flight. this new information suggests possibly an explosion caused by a bomb, but that flash could also be tied to something else like a failed engine exploding or some other structural or mechanical problem with the plane. the airline is saying there was no mechanical failure and russian state media is saying so far, no signs of explosive

impact on the bodies of the victims. no blast-related trauma. that doesn't necessarily rule anything out yet. in 1994, philippine airlines flight 434 had 273 passengers onboard and a bomb was onboard. that bomb killed one passenger and injured ten others. the pilot was able to land the plane and everyone else survived. the point here is no one truly knows yet what caused this crash. >> thank you very much. i want to go to bob baier and mary scalia. what do you think brought down the plane? >> it's looking more and more like a bomb. the flash is a considerable piece of evidence you wouldn't see that. could be a gasoline tank exploding like twa 800, went

down in new york off the coast. it's liking more like that. this is a war zone. it would have been easy for someone to get a bomb on that plane. now it's a matter of finding the residue from the wreckage. you wouldn't necessarily find it on the bodies, but would find it on pieces of the airplane. >> mary, how could it have been smuggled on to the plane? egypt is stand buying its security at this luxury tourist location. they are saying they are not upping it because they are so confident that it's good. >> that's very foolish of egypt because there are as many ways to put a bomb on the plane as there are people at the airport that touch that plane. saying they have beefed-up security for passengers is ludicrous because there are so many ways. many it doesn't have to be a sophisticated bomb. a rudimentary one placed at the weak points on the plane, near the wings, near the pock kit,

bulkhead, near the tail, that could bring down the plane with a small amount of plastic explosives. they should beef up security. >> david, i want to ask you about these reports. there are reports from the russian state news agencies the recovered bodies, they have don't have blast-related trauma signs. when people see that, they say that means there must not be an explosion. it doesn't mean anything of the sort, does it? >> no a blast does not have to be large to rupture the hull of that aircraft. the flash they are referring to could be resultant of a smaller bomb. the infrared wouldn't be created from a smaller bomb, but if it exploded a fuel tank like flight 800, would have created that flash. i'm onboard everything mary and bob said. >> how hard would it have been to get a bomb on to this plane? what's the scale we are talking

about? you believe it doesn't have to be that big or heavy. >> if you look at some of the advanced bombs like the ones being made, it's easy. you can hide the explosives inside the wall of a suitcase and put a detonator there. if you get a pound of explosives, it doesn't matter where you put it in the hull once you get it in. were they sophisticated enough to feed the search for barometric switches? i don't know. but baggage handlers could easily get that on. it wouldn't take much doing to put a bomb on that airplane. >> when you refer to barometric switches, this airport says they scan luggage for a device that would be programmed to set off an explosive at a certain altitude. >> but those are defeatable. if you understand the ways the

airport work, those are defeatable. or simply a timer is more sure and if you know the airplane is taking off and you hit the safety switch on that, you could also set it off. >> mary, i understand why authorities are hesitant to say this isis video is real. isis has given no proof they had anything to do with this. at the same time, you can see why authorities would be hesitant for a lot of reasons. if isis were responsible, that would be a game-changer. it would change perception of flight and safety. if not isis, if this is a bomb scenario, who else? >> well, could be any number of people. terrorism isn't just to terrorize people into claim supremacy through terror tactics to get people not to fly and disrupt economy.

a lot of terrorism have been payback terror. gadhafi with pan am 103, north korean attacking south korean carriers. in many cases, they never took contract. pan am went down december 1988. britain did not declare a bomb until the summer of 1990. >> thanks very much to all of you. >>. >> the terrifying track record of mechanical malfunctions in the sky. it is terrifying. our special report plus donald trump on defense, slamming ben carson and jeb bush today. our special report on carson's inner circle. does the new front-runner have the team to keep his surge alive? in panama, which is a city of roughly 2 million people, we are having 5,000 new cars being sold every month.

this is a very big problem for us with respect to fast and efficient transportation. it's kind of a losing proposition to keep going this way. we are trying to tackle the problem with several different modes. one of them is the brand new metro. we had a modest forecast: 110,000 passengers per day in the first line. we are already over 200,000. our collaboration with citi has been very important from the very beginning. citi was our biggest supporter and our only private bank. we are not only being efficient in the way we are moving people now, we are also more amicable to the environment. people have more time for the family and it's been one of the most rewarding experiences to hear people saying: "the metro has really changed my life." you fifteen percent or more on huh, fiftcar insurance.uld save yeah, everybody knows that. well, did you know that playing cards with kenny rogers gets old pretty fast?

now how a plane broke into pieces in mid-air. a possible explosion was detected by an american satellite moments before this jet went down. this is not the first time a passenger jet disintegrated in mid flight. some of the video we are about to show you is graphic. >> reporter: killing all 224 onboard feels eerily familiar to another major disaster. the 1996 explosion of twa flight 800 off long island. peter golds was one of the chief ntsb investigators of that disaster. like the metrojet crash, satellite imagery captured a heat signature. >> we had that same occurrence of twa flight 800. satellite picked up the signature and it indicated and confirmed for us what eyewitnesses had seen that there

was a fire ball. >> reporter: but it didn't smain why. it was simply a clue. unexplained split second sounds. the similarities lead them to believe a fuel tank might have exploded. three miles away was the tail section. that holds another clue. possible structural failure. in november 2001, the airbus tail hit the tarmac on landing. the plane was repaired. a clear break from the rest of the debris raises this possibility. >> it could have been a structural failure of the plane that rp tured so the explosion could have been coming after whatever event initiated the break-up. >> reporter: flight tracking data shows the plane did slow down significantly before the crash. many experts discount a stall.

a stall proves disastrous. >> i want to apologize for that. we wanted to run that as much as we could having technical difficulties there. mary schaivo and david are back. if it were not a bomb and we are looking at scenarios like we were just showing, what could happen to cause it to disintegrate in mid air and show that heat flash and likely explosion? >> i worked on twa 100 as one of them. it has similarities. it was faulty wiring on an old plane. i also worked on the chalk sea plane crash down in florida about a decade ago. in that case, the wing tore away

on a 53-year-old plane. the wing tore away and ignited the fuel tank. that could have happened here, too. parts were lost and the fire ignited. >> david, what do you think in terms of a sudden mechanical mid-air disaster? one in which there was no time for a distress call. all you heard was a bangor explosion-like sound on the cockpit voice recorder. what could be responsible for that if not a bomb? >> i think mary is going along the right line and what peter said also before about the fuselage coming apart and tearing open that fuel cell which is after that main wing. it looks like, too, from what we see on the ground, there is nothing on the ground behind the primary wing. everything ahead of it was still attached. it would have made sense should it have a structural failure, it

tail would be intact and would you see that rupture of the fuel tank. >> let's look at the plane's tail. that was the last piece they were focusing on today on the ground. it was found separated from other pieces of the plane. it was the largest single piece of wreckage that was found. taking that into account, taking its location separate from the rest of the wreckage, what do you conclude? >> i also saw very key piece which was a tail cone which the apu fresh out of the factory looks different. i stared at those photos trying to see if there were burn marks. in some photos, looks like there were burn marks. in others, i don't see it. if there are no burn marks on those pieces of the plane and they are in a separate field, that would have come off before the fire ball and explosion. >> what does that mean in terms of likely cause if it came off before the explosion and fire ball?

>> that would be the likely cause. if it separated from the plane before the plane exploded, that would cause the plane to come down if you lost the tail. >> that would be structural in the tail. david what about an imagine of the engine? we've seen the engines on the ground here? this is one of the engines completely destroyed. you see the center part. are there any clues in here? >> what you are looking at, the fan part of the engine are gone. they are not there. at first glance you think maybe there was a rupture in flight that the engine exploded in flight. as you look further, you see the shell around that outside tour pine is still intact, meaning those blades were burned after it hit the ground. it's a little bit confusing to look at. you might think that might have caused this flash. there is a shroud that goes

around those things. if it was an engine explosion, it wouldn't create that signature able to be seen by the satellite. >> you're saying you don't think it's likely it started in the engine? >> no. i think the engine is subsequent to the aircraft hitting the ground. i don't think this is something that happened mid-air. you see it differently. all those pieces wouldn't be that closely next to each other on the ground like you see now. >> the egyptians are saying the field investigation was finishing today. they went out there and they are done. this is an area with a lot of isis-affiliated and sympathetic groups. it's a dangerous area. with no answers what happened to this, are you surprised they are done on the ground already? >> i'm surprised and horrified. it's so, so very important to scoop up every piece of evidence, whether it's terrorism or mechanical. especially if it's mechanical.

remember pan am 103, police officers walked shoulder to shoulder across miles of terrain to find the thumbnail size piece of a fragment of a plastic explosive bomb. this is ridiculous. also the victims that so many have been returned, and god rest their souls, it's very important to do autopsies to see if there is sooting in the lungs or tell-tale evidence. aviation safety is at stake, especially if it's mechanical. >> possible sounds like from what both of you are saying and the way egyptians and russians are handling this, we may never know. they are quick to jump to conclusions they don't need to change security at the airport. are we going to get a decent investigation, david? >> i don't know, to be honest with you. there is a thing that happens sometimes in the investigation. an overreliance what you know. you start thinking and

channeling everything towards that. the black box. as far as the other information, there could be details left out. >> thanks very much to both of you. next, donald trump coming out swinging against just about everybody. a second poll showing he is no longer leading the pack. can he take back his once-commanding lead? >> ben carson, polls crowning him as the front-runner. who are behind his unlikely campaign? woman: it's been a journey to get where i am. and i didn't get here alone. there were people who listened along the way. people who gave me options. kept me on track. and through it all, my retirement never got left behind. so today, i'm prepared for anything we may want tomorrow to be. every someday needs a plan. let's talk about your old 401(k) today. on location with the famous,

tonight, donald trump fighting mad after another poll shows him in second place behind ben carson. trump going on the attack. >> reporter: ben carson tightening his grip on his front-runner status. 29% of gop voters nationwide support carson in the latest nbc news/"wall street journal" poll. a six-point lead over donald trump. >> our strength is in our unity. we need to stop listening to the surveyors of division. >> reporter: taken together, the two outsiders dominate the

field, drawing 52% support. >> if you add ben and myself, we are beating everybody by a lot. that seems to be the big story. >> i continue to do what i've been doing. >> reporter: carson traveling the country promoting his book. not to be outdone, trump celebrated his own book release today. and took a swipe at the man on top of the polls. >> he's a different kind of a person. my book is very hard-hitting. you look at ben, he's weak on immigration. wants to get rid of medicare. >> reporter: trump predicted jeb bush doesn't have what it takes to win the white house. >> can jeb make a comeback? it will be very hard. >> reporter: said it's time for some of his gop opponents to give up the fight. do you think it's time for republicans in this field to drop out? >> if a person's been campaigning four or five months and they're at zero or 1% or 2%, they should get out. >> reporter: with the candidates at odds with each other over how to move forward with their debates, president obama is

mocking the entire field. >> if you can't handle those gu guys? you know then i don't think the chinese and russians are going to be too worried about you. >> reporter: trump complains the democrats have it easy. >> hillary clinton, no tough questions. why didn't they ask about bill? why didn't they ask about all the different things? hillary had only softballs all night long. it was like this. hit this one over the park. >> you hear donald trump there. that is trademark donald trump. you've been covering him every day. he cares about the polls. now that he has this number two in a few major polls, do you think he will change his tone? >> reporter: do we see a more demoralized or fired-up? later this week on "saturday night live," he'll be in rehearsals the rest of the week.

he says he is not nervous though. >> we will see. it's a big moment for him. thank you very much, great to see you on set. katrina pierson, a donald trump supporter and our political commentator and ana navarro, a jeb bush supporter and friend of marco rubio. what about what donald just said about the gop field? >> it turns out they can't handle a bunch of cnbc moderators. if you can't handle those guys, you know then i don't think the chinese and the russians are going to be too worried about you. >> donald trump is negotiating with the networks to change the rules on the debates. should he stop and prove obama

wrong? yes, there's humor in that, but there is something to it. >> well, not necessarily. everybody saw that debate. pretty much agreed it was silly. they don't want to change the debate rules to make them easier. they want to talk about more substance. not who said what and comic book stuff. this is also coming from the guy that's had his lunch handed to him by world leaders for the last couple of years. the question is, what about the democrats? is obama now going to tell the dnc they need to have a fox news debate? probably not. >> some things you said there i can't agree with, but that is an interesting point. trump is number two in the polls. >> to your great surprise, i have to tell you i agree with some of the things she said. practically every single republican that saw that debate found it objectionable. if the republican party right now, we cannot agree on the color of an orange. what we are all saying, that was

an awful moderated debate. the issue is not being asked tough questions, but if you bill a debate as a discussion on financial and economic policy then ask questions about every other thing, that's upsetting to republicans. >> they all said they don't want a change in the debate rules. maybe not everybody sees it like an orange, but donald trump is swinging hard at jeb bush. you're well aware of this. here is trump today. >> jeb is a nice guy. he's a stiff. he doesn't have a chance. he ought to do what walker did. >> drop out? >> absolutely. he's got no chance. he's got money but the money is not going to do it. he's been branded as a low-energy person. >> who branded him? >> i can't imagine. jeb is not going to make it. he's wasting his time and money. >> on the seriousness of this,

this it laest poll, jeb bush is not only in single digits, but this is crucial, less than half republican voters say they would vote for him. that number is 60% trump, 77% ben carson. should jeb consider dropping out so the party can coalesce and deal with a more manageable field? >> no. you are going to ask the guy who's got $100 and super pac who's got double-digit cash on hand who has teams on the ground in the early states to drop out, when there are so many others on that debate stage who are nothi nothing, no one in the polls who have no money? i think not. it's jeb's choice. i don't think anything donald trump says has much influence on jeb. i do think donald trump is right. he's got a branding problem, jeb. it was donald trump who branded him low energy. jeb has to fight hard to rebrand himself and prove he is

energetic and is forceful. >> he is trying to do that. here a is jeb bush responding to donald trump on cnn. >> he's run for president twice and quit. i've run for governor in the biggest swing state and won twice. i know how to win. i've done it. >> he knows how to persevere in politics. isn't that a good thing? that is something donald trump does not have. >> it is a good thing. there are two people ahead of him, three at this point. maybe he was a wirn, bnner, but any more. he already said he has things to do better than this. this isn't new for donald trump. he's always been after jeb bush. if donald trump had these numbers, jeb bush would be demanding he jump out of the race, too. >> ana?

>> that's not true. you have to respect everybody else on that stage. it's up to the person decide if and when they drop out. as long as a candidate has fight, has possibilities, has got a path, has the back bone to keep grinding away, jeb bush is a guy who shows up to four, five different events a day. donald trump parachutes in every now and then and does a bunch of media he must do from the sofa of his living room as he phones into the media. each should be concerned about running their own campaign. they've got their own problems to deal. with let everybody else do what they want. >> thanks to both. >> the respect should go both ways. it hasn't gone that way with donald trump. >> donald trump will be a guest on "new day." no word whether he is dealing in from his boxers on the phone,

7:00 a.m. here on cnn. up next, ben carson. the formal front-runner. it is time to see what's going on inside his campaign. and we are moments away from a big decision in ohio. will recreational pot become legal?

tonight the spotlight on ben carson. he's on top of the polls, but still an enigma. what do we know about his team? >> reporter: dr. ben carson, the political newcomer now front-runner, relies on just a few people to keep him grounded emotionally and plugged in politically. the man who has his ear and his back, armstrong williams is on the phone with carson several times a day. carson's controversial comments. >> i would not advocate we put a muslim in charge of this nation. >> reporter: getting fierce defense from the bombastic conservative media personality. >> everything is not about winning the white house for him. >> reporter: armstrong gets

carson in a way others don't. >> he is trying to mix a scientific world with a political world and a medical world and a spiritual world, and sometimes the end results can be kind of shocking and stunning to people. >> reporter: the unlikely pair met more than 20 years ago when carson appeared on williams' tv show. williams, a washington fixture who once word for strom thurman and clarence thomas, now owns tv stations, a pr firm and real estate. he says carson was always curious about politics. >> whatever was the particular headlines of the day, he would delve into it. >> reporter: carson inspires loyalty in his inner circle. deanna bass jumps at the chance to work for him. >> i was sitting in my kitchen table in my jammis, my favorite

place to work, and i got a call from dr. carson's business manager. he said dr. carson needed a press secretary. >> reporter: it's her job to make carson look good. >> he carries his own bags. in the beltway, that's unheard off. >> reporter: but it's candy carson, his wife of 40 years, who keeps him ground. she is a major presence on the campaign trail and major reason carson is running for president at all. >> what got me onboard with this because it's not something i wanted to do. i don't see my grandchildren because we are on the road so much. whenever i see these children, i think i can't do this to them. i've got to do whatever i can to wake people up so they understand what's going on. >> reporter: she met her husband while a student at yale where she triple majored in music, psychology and pre-med. she had an mba, but music is her

passion. mrs. carson is an accomplished violinist, playing the violin to kick off her husband's 2016 bid. the two have three sons and co-authored several books together. a team in virtually every sense of the word. >> i let him shine, too. >> reporter: you saw how comfortable they are together. they share a similar background having grown up poor inner in city detroit. i saw them together on the campaign trail. while she says she doesn't follow politics like armstrong williams, she does make those solo appearances to support her husband. >> thank you very much, suzanne. they do seem very comfortable together. i want to bring in our senior political analyst and former advisor to presidents nixon, ford, reagan and clinton, david gergen. ben carson is now the republican front-runner.

can he actually make it all the way? >> i think you hesitate to call about anything because this has been so bizarre in so many ways. if this election is going to turn on likability and general smarts, yes, ben carson can win it. we all know that having gotten this far, especially now as he is forged ahead and closed in on the national poll with hillary, he will come under more scrutiny for more than like babililikabi. nick -- economic policies. flat taxes in general do, are windfalls for the rich and raise taxes for people in lower categories. that will be very controversial. his notion about using voucher for medicaid will be controversial. his top economic advisor is talking about cutting american

support for the world bank and international monetary fund, institutions created with american leadership after world war ii. he does have in candy carson, i've known them a long time, not well, but i've known them going back over a dozen of years or so. she is impressive and the source of enormous strength for him. >> she really is. she has an energy that he lacks. >> i agree with that. i think she keeps him grounded. he's had, because of his very compelling life story, he was embraced by one university after another, especially black colleges and universities. some look at him as a role model. it's not surprising he got catapulted out of that thinking about larger office and having a higher profile. going for the presidency, extraordinarily complicated position and the most powerful position in the world with, it's not often you want people in there who are making decisions about something they started

thinking about five minutes ago. experience does matter. that will be a big issue for him, what his ideas are. >> new poll dead heat in a hypothetical match between carson and hillary clinton, i guess a lot of that could come down to things like the black vote. can he win the black vote? >> he could. i think he can do well within the black vote. whether he can win it is a much tougher proposition. black conservatives tend to be controversial in that community for a whole lot of reasons. >> yes. >> i do think coming out of this, when you look at that new poll was showing him in the dead heat, hillary clinton and ben carson, you begin to realize this is shaping up as a very partisan election in which people on one side are going to line up under their candidate. it could be very close. >> david gergen, thank you. smoking pot for my reason you want to be legal in ohio. moments away from a major

get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. you know xarelto® is the #1 prescribed blood thinner in its class. that's a big win. it is for me. with xarelto® there is no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto®... ...was the right move for us. ask your doctor about xarelto®. ♪ ♪ the beautiful sound of customers making the most of their united flight. power, wi-fi, and streaming entertainment.

tonight a major decision on pot. voters choosing whether to legalize recreational marijuana in the state of ohio and if voters vote yes, some new marijuana moguls. stephanie elam is out front. it's all about the green in ohio today. the growing, smoking and spending kind. and it's the cash that's causing controversy. for the first time in america, voters can say yes to legalizing medical and recreational marijuana at the same time. in ohio, it's called issue 3. but if they do, commercial growing rights would go to just ten predetermined farms owned by, you guessed it, investors in the campaign to legalize the cash crop. >> i'm nick lache, ohio is my home and i care very deeply about the people here. >> reporter: tv and music star

mark lache and nanette lepore have financial stakes in the game. >> by no means does that mean we share in all the profits. like i said before, there will be competition and there will be winners and will be losers. >> reporter: also those in the middle. ohioans who want to legalize marijuana, but don't want the green to line the pockets of so few. the man behind the campaign to bring legal pot smoking to the swing state said it could never pass without big budget backers. >> groups of investors had the ability to fund the campaign, spend about 23 to $25 million. you can't pass it with nickels and dimes and you can't pass it by wishful thinking. >> reporter: if it does pass, other growers will be allowed to join in after four years. nevertheless, the vote could set the precedent for pay to play politics in the front world. a volunteer that is up for votes in at least six other states next year.

ohio would join four other states and the district of columbia to recognize recreational use including an allowance for personal plants. john kasich is not onboard. >> sending mixed signals to kids about drugs is a disaster. >> reporter: turned out mixed signals may be exactly what keeps legal marijuana and its investors out of ohio. opponents of issue 3 can vote for issue 2 and anti-monopoly counter measure designed to defeat issue 3. if both passed the port will decide whether the state goes to pot or not. the reason many believe this will end up in a court of law can be found in ohio's constitution. it says when two conflicting amendments pass, the one with the most votes will become law. but issue 2 goes into effect immediately. issue 3 is citizen sponsored so the law wouldn't take effect until 30 daze after the election. so, even though the polls are now close in ohio, we may not know the final outcome right away and also, erin, now in the

state that the polls are closed no county can release statewide election results until 9:00 p.m. eastern. it will be a little longer before we find out what the voters decided. getting a tattoo is rather painful. getting the wrong thing tattooed even more painful. jeanne moos is next. fifteen pern car insurance. yeah, everybody knows that. well, did you know that playing cards with kenny rogers gets old pretty fast? ♪ you got to know when to hold'em. ♪ ♪ know when to fold 'em. ♪ know when to walk away. ♪ know when to run. ♪ you never count your money, ♪ when you're sitting at the ta...♪ what? you get it? i get the gist, yeah. geico. fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance. on location with the famous, big idaho potato truck. our truck? it's touring across america telling people about idaho potatoes.

in the world of tattooing, it's important to make sure your ink stained sentiment can stand the test of time. it also helps if it's at least true. here's jeanne moos. >> reporter: when college

student josh davis got his world champs new york mets 2015 tattoo -- >> it was hurting a lot. that was really bad, the worst tattoo pain i've ever experienced. >> reporter: but not as bad as the pain he experienced when his beloved mets lost the world series that his tattoo proclaimed they won. josh actually got the tattoo during game one. you weren't inking while drinking, were you? >> no. i was completely sober, sober and faithful. >> reporter: don't feel bad, josh, you're not the first to suffer from prumature sport tattooing. >> neither the lions or cowboys lived up to tattoos and when the seattle seahawks failed to become back-to-back champions, this guy joked about sanding off his tattoo. but our met fan had no regrets. >> no, not at all. always remind me of this year and they really did have a great year. >> reporter: josh now joins

those adorned with erroneous ink. strength without the g and this stab in the back, why not? everyone else does but else has an extra e. what about all the bad grammar. never, don't give up. there are entire websites devoted to tattoo failure. johnny depp updated his tattoo whiledying wynoninona ryder. when he broke up, he changed it to wino forever. josh may eventually turn his into a generic mets tribute, but for now, he's enjoying the attention. oh, yeah. >> i pull up my shirt and people's eyes widen up and they're like, it's you. >> reporter: think before you ink or you may have to eat your words. ouch. can we take one more look at it?

jeanne moos, cnn, new york. >> makes me grateful the one time i got a tattoo it was temporary. be sure to set your recorder so you can watch "outfront" any time. thanks for joining us. we begin with breaking news and a string of potentially significantly developments in the crash of 9268. the latest coming from the american embassy in cairo warning employees not to travel anywhere in the sinai peninsula where the russian airbus went down until investigators determine exactly what happened. today egyptian authorities say they're on the scene work was done in the stream of potentially significant information continued. so did the contradictions and clashing theories surrounding what, after, all is an early stage in the investigation. russian state media reporting that investigators found no signs of what they call explosive impact on the bodies recovered so far. at the same time, the american satellite that detected a heat flash when the plane
