through street barricades before crashing into construction scaffolding and this is the aftermath of last friday's crash, now under investigation. 20 people were injured, several carefully lowered by firefighters on stretchers. >> horrific. it was gut-wrenching. >> reporter: cameras show different angles of the runaway sight-seeing bus that hit a bicyclist, other cars and another tour bus. this man narrowly avoided being hit. investigators are now combing through what's left for clues. the driver's wife told kgo tv he claimed the brakes failed. a company says its maintenance workers had inspected the bus three weeks before the crash. how were the brakes? >> they were fine. >> reporter: the california public utilities commission, which regulates tour buses, says the bus was never registered with the agency, and that means it was also never inspected by the california highway patrol. investigators have not yet determined what caused this crash. several of the victims with

critical injuries remain hospitaled, reena and kendis. >> our thanks to brandi. coming up as "gma's" "40 for 40" live streaming event stretches into its 33rd hour, dialing back its own clock with surprise guests. we're sharing some memories. >> who could it be? in the next half hour, a warning about super bugs in meat. what can be done about antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the food supply.

now." i can't tell you how excited i am. the wait is over. time to reveal our surprise guests. most of you know exactly who they are. they are distinguished to be the only two people to anchor this phenomenal broadcast and "good morning america." kevin newman spent a year and a

half in this studio, a time in which canadians like himself held an iron grip on the "world news now" anchor desk. >> so true. >> and mccree, famous for never sitting behind a traditional anchor desk. they were the pioneers, the founding mother and father, really, of this famous anchor team of "world news now." we welcome them now, kevin and lisa. we have been awaiting your arrival. this is so much fun. >> oh, look how old he is? >> you were 12 years old when you broadcast, weren't you? >> i had a lot more hair, too. >> holy cow. >> what do you guys think? you're back now. >> you know, it was a brand new show for me. aaron brown and i started the show with our executive producer. i'm still friends with both of them. i love them. you know, they will be friends forever. and we just made it up as we went along. and none of the grownups were watching. it was like the mice were coming

>> we still feel like that today. >> you know, those people upstairs, they're not watching us. >> it really was the -- i think the most liberating broadcasting i've ever done in my career, because you could make it up. and you did have that feeling of, you know, nobody's watching and i've never felt closer to viewers and my audience than i did on this audience. >> you started this show. what was it like in the very beginning? >> we had a basement office because the grownups wouldn't let us come upstairs i think until they made sure we could be on the air for a week. it was dank and dark and there were exposed pipes and it was -- you know, then we went to -- all the grownups would let us come upstairs and practice. peter jennings had his desk right here with the working news room behind him. this whole space you use as a studio was a big working news room. and we practiced and rehearsed at that big desk. and our executive producer, david borman was like, it's not working. it's just not right. he was like, aaron, take off the

jacket. aaron, roll up your sleeves. >> they were always twisting form. that's what's beautiful at "world news now." if you think about the ethic of internet broadcasting, that you do roll up your sleeves, you are much more comfortable in your skin and much more of a person, less than an authority anchor, i think that's the stuff that was pioneered here. >> did you think the show would last that long? >> nothing lasts that long. >> i know. hard to believe. >> it does a great service for people who are newsmakers. when aaron and i started the program, it was the primary season of the '92 election. there was this unknown guy from hope, and he was happy to come in and be on tv for 15 minutes straight without anybody >> really? >> of course. >> one of the things i'm probably most proud of is when we were here, we actually pushed internet. so, "world news now" is actually the very first television newscast ever on the internet. so, we threw it out there. i still remember sitting at the desk, which was there, and

seeing the signal come back. oh, my goodness, like, at that time, you never saw your audience. today you see your audience, you hear from them. >> how was the format different from back when you started to today, what would you say? >> aaron and i started the morning papers. nobody did that. we had papers from -- you probably remember. i'm pointing at our director knows. >> anybody remember newspapers? >> when would go to the fax machine. we would go to the fax machine and the guys from the dallas morning news, an actual fax, dallas morning news, pittsburgh, whatever it was, fax us the headlines and hold them up. >> and there are those ideas. we used to do this thing called dare news. it's still a great idea where you would take a newscast from another country, subtitle it. we would run their news, which was always enlightening to see -- imagine today the kind of story you would get from jordan, for instance, of the syrian refugees. >> and how different they cover it. >> it was a story about polka on

the air, and big mouth says -- like, within a week, it took a week for mail back then, there were still ponies that brought it here. huge piles of these polka lovers who are hating me. i had to do an on-air mea culpa and then barry mitchell shows up. >> just to torture you every week. >> and he's still around. that would be a sad day in "world news now.." >> 4:00, all alone and you're not wearing pants. everybody dance. >> what would you say before we head out -- what would you say is probably your favorite memory of what you remember most about now." >> the camaraderie, i think. it was just everybody working a hard shift, but loving each other's company so much, and the freedom. >> i have to say, you know, some of the people we work with have become just life-long friends. i remember christie coal bin who worked -- of course, she got married at my house in los angeles.

you know, because you bond in a way that's just so different, and nobody really understands your pain. i don't want to -- i don't want to do a disservice to service people by saying it's like being -- there is a bunker mentality about it. and that's something you share. and i value those friendships. >> kevin, you've just written a new book out, too. >> i have. the interesting thing about it is it's sort inform retrospect. i'm looking back at the time i came here and how much, you know, very busy life, whether it's in broadcasting, whatever it is, what that takes from your children. but the interesting thing is, i've co-written it with my son. it's this memoir of the same period of time from two very different perspectives. if you're a really brave parent in 15 years, ask your kid to write a book about how you did as a parent because it's -- it gives you a chance to do better. >> thank you, guys, so much for joining us. you're watching "world news now."

how cool is that? >> they are such cool people. kevin and lisa. and it was like they're the elders of the "world news now" desk, in a good way, the best way. >> i remember watching them so many years ago. so, let's talk about "the mix" and talk about star wars. you have all seen the new trailer, which is fascinating for the force awakened. well, there are these guys in fresno, california, who decided they were going to do their own remake of the trailer. look at it. they even have a black guy. look at this. a screen by screen. the real trailer is up top left and their remake right there. scene for scene, shot for shot. they had different props, they used some puppets, their grandma's basement and they made their own trailer. very cool, this group called dumb drums did this.

we should ask them to make a "world news now" remake. >> they wouldn't need to dumb it down. >> this is impressive. i love this one. you know how new york fire department always puts out the hunky, hunky calendars. >> oh, yeah. >> yeah, right. and this year -- well, next year's you can get your own cab driver hunky, hunky calendar. this is a spoof. for $14.99. >> are you sure it's a spoof? >> these are the new york city taxi drivers stripping down to their hunky bods, dad bods. >> dad bods. >> lots of hairy chests. apparently all the proceeds go to university settlement which provides services, education and -- look, there's the women. >> very nice. >> well, next year the calendar of your uber drivers coming up. >> could be. so, these guys in the dutch group, in the netherlands, have come up with -- have broken the world record for the longest bike in the world.

take a look at it. it is 117 feet long, which i'm told is about the -- just shy of a new york city block. look at that. now, the back of it, the wheel back there is a little bit thicker, about five inches, so they have stability, but no wheels in the middle. so, that is it. that's a long, long bike. >> would you be allowed to use this in the carpool lane on the highway? >> i think it would count. >> it would count. it's like a long ladder between two bikes. >> they aren't getting a lot of speed on that. >> bet gas mileage is pretty good. we've also got a 50-year-old who has beat his record for pushups. take a look at this. >> wow. >> this is william, carlton williams, who in one hour in 2014 did.

that deadly raid just a mile from where the attacks began. after the gunfire and explosions and alarming discovering, prosecutors finding evidence of another terror plot in the works. >> translator: everything leads us to believe that considering the armament, the structured organization and the determination, they were ready to act. >> reporter: cell phone records and surveillance led them to this apartment building where they thought they'd find the mastermind of friday's attacks, abdelhamid abaaoud. inside, an hour-long shootout, 5,000 rounds fired. >> translator: i heard gunfire. it went crazy, gunshots, explosions, here, there, everywhere. it went on for ages. people were running everywhere. >> reporter: eight people detained. prosecutors saying abaaoud is not among them, they still haven't identified the bodies of two people killed in the raid, including a woman police say

blew herself up with a suicide belt. police also still searching for two of the killers who carried out the paris massacre and trying to figure out who the terrorist texted just before the attacks. the chilling message found on a cell phone outside this theater, here we go, we are starting. police determined to track down those suspects, carried out nearly 120 searches overnight yesterday, as well as that violent raid that left several officers injured. kendis and reena? >> marci, thank you. we're getting a chilling up-close look at one of the attacks as it unfolded last week. video obtained by the "daily mail" shows a gunman shooting out the windows of a restaurant. he leaves and then returns to point the gun at a woman, but it does not fire. it jams. seconds later, you see that woman popping up. her life spared. new images surfaced online of the bomb hidden in a soda can that isis claims was responsible

for downing a russian airliner in egypt last month. but a senior u.s. officials tells abc news that experts speculate the image is bogus. the official says it's likely isis is providing disinformation. here new york city officials are reacting after isis released a video threatening attacks on the city. standing in the middle of times square, one of the images used in the video, the mayor said the people of new york city will not be intimidated. he added that there is no specific or credible threat against the city. the police commissioner said tourists should not be afraid to visit the big apple's landmarks. the debate over taking in syrian refugees is heating up with the house voting today on a bill to set up more rigorous screening process. >> president obama has already threatened to veto, accusing republicans of fear-mongering. rick klein has the latest. good morning to you. >> reporter: reena and kendis, a

too willing to return fire. kendis and reena? >> our thanks to rick klein there. the fierce debate over syrian refugees is playing out across the nation. the mayor of roanoke, virginia, set off a firestorm of criticism after he favorably compared the rejection of the syrians to the internment of japanese-americans after pearl harbor. but in connecticut, the governor there is welcoming a syrian family after officials in indiana objected to the refugees being settled there. two people are dead after a helicopter crashed and caught fire in southern california. the chopper was within inches of landing at an airport north of san diego when it began spinning out of control. seconds later, it broke apart, hit the ground in a cloud of smoke and flames. fire crews doused flames quickly. both people on board were killed. now some extreme weather. two flight attendants on an american airlines flight out of chicago were injured when their plane encountered turbulence.

good morning. i'm kendis gibson. >> i'm reena ninan. here are some headlines we're following on "world news now." standing in the middle of times square, the mayor of new york city says there is no specific or credible threat to the city. this comes after isis released a video showing new york landmarks and threatening more attacks. full details in just a moment. the fate of the alleged ring leader of the terror attacks in paris is still a mystery this morning. it's not clear if abdelhamid abaaoud was killed in yesterday's bloody raid near paris. but police say they neutralized a new team of terrorists. a helicopter trying to land at an airport north of san diego. it started spinning out of control before breaking apart and crashing in a cloud of smoke and flames. both people on board were killed. health officials in boston are proposing that anyone buying tobacco and nicotine products, including e-cigarettes, must be 21 years old

if approved, the crackdown would go into effect in mid-february. those are some of our top stories on this thursday, november 19th. >> announcer: from abc news, this is "world news now." good morning, everyone. we begin this half hour with the renewed isis threat against an iconic new york city landmark. >> we want to give you a live picture right now of new york's times square, where the mayor and police commissioner spoke just a matter of hours ago. they urged new yorkers and tourists not to be intimidated by the threat. and to go about business as usual. we get more now from abc's pierre thomas. >> reporter: in an updated version of an april propaganda video from isis, you can see a man prepare willing for awe suicide attack, and then footage of new york city iconic landmarks. >> no city in america is better prepared to defend and protect against a terrorist attack. we work tirelessly to ensure that. >> reporter: it comes only days after another video threatened a strike against washington, d.c. putting u.s. law enforcement

keep everyone safe. there are more than 900 terror investigations in all 50 states. many involving isis. the investigations range from those in the early stages to some in the final days, when dozens of agents and analysts may be required for surveillance and undercover work for a single individual. while no specific plot targeting the homeland has been identified, authorities are taking no chances. >> we're operating at the highest level possible, again, to stop bad things from happening. >> reporter: as for that isis propaganda video depicting new york city, the nypd says they're aware of the video but there's no specific, credible threat to the city. still they remain at heightened alerted. pierre thomas, abc news, washington. overseas now, the raid that turned into a fierce gun fight in a paris suburb led to eight arrests and two deaths. police are not sure if the accused mastermind of the paris attacks, abdelhamid abaaoud, is among the dead. a female suicide bomber

the s.w.a.t. team closed in. officials say it was a new team of terrorists that appeared ready for a new attack. >> forensics teams going into an apartment like this are looking for fingerprints of other individuals who were not present when the raid occurred to see if they can find traces to other people, fingerprints, hair samples, anything that would lead them to a broader network of contacts. >> tapped phone calls and surveillance led police to the apartment building. after the siege the french president declared france was at war with isis. we're getting a chilly look at one of the attacks that unfolded last week. these stunning images from the dailymail.com shows a gunman in the upper left of your screen, opening fire and shooting out the windows of a restaurant. he walks away, reappears to point the gun at a woman but it does not fire. instead, it jams. after he moves on, you see the terrified woman popping up. her life spared.

this morning there are new calls for coordination in the battle against isis in syria and iraq. officials in russia and france say they intend to work together as the attacks enter their fifth day. abc's martha raddatz reports from iraq. >> reporter: withering air strikes on isis targets in syria. russian aircraft flying 65 missions, claiming to have destroyed numerous isis oil depots and command centers, as the french aircraft carrier charles de gaulle moves closer to the syrian coast, packed with firepower. in the last 48 hours, destroying six major targets. but here in iraq and in syria, where the u.s. has been conducting thousands of air strikes, the u.s. military expressing concerns over russia's tactics. a military spokesman calling those large-scale bombing runs, with so-called dumb bombs,

russians have little regard for civilians below. here in iraq, isis still controls large swaths of territory, including the second largest city of mosul. those air strikes have done little to dislodge the terrorists there. martha raddatz, abc news, erbil. another note about isis. a new image has surfaced online of the bomb that was hidden in a soda can that isis claims was responsible for downing a russian airliner late last month. but a senior u.s. official tells abc news that experts speculate the image is actually bogus. the official says it's likely that isis is providing disinformation. turning now to the bitter political fight over the syrian refugees. the house will vote today on a bill aimed at adding new security layers to the screening process before the refuse geese refugees are allowed to resettled in u.s. but it won't get past the president's desk. with more, here's abc's jonathan karl. >> reporter: speaker of the house paul ryan said if he

>> i would encourage, mr. president, come back and insult me to my face. >> reporter: in threatening to veto paul ryan's bill to have a pause in the syrian refugee program, the white house insisted that already each refugee goes through extensive security screening before coming to the united states. and pointed out that of the more than 2,000 syrian refugees who have come to the u.s. since the year 2001, not a single one has been tied to terrorism. jonathan karl, abc news, the white house. police in minneapolis say some officers were injured by rocks and bottles late last night as tensions with protesters escalated. they've been camped out in front of a police precinct since sunday's shooting of an unarmed black man by two officers. shortly after dark, police in riot gear physically removed some of the protesters, but those who stayed behind insisted they aren't going anywhere. former subway pitchman jared fogle will appear in federal court today to be sentenced for sex crimes. he has pleaded guilty to charges

[ gunfire ]

bust into this apartment building, but running into a reinforced door. once inside, met by gunfire. [ gunfire ] terrified families living nearby, shocked awake by the barrage of bullets. when it was all over, eight arrested and at least two dead. a woman who detonated a suicide belt and another person killed by a grenade. this cell phone video shows s.w.a.t. teams leading suspects, some stripped of their clothing, away from the scene. the apartment building itself pock marked and barely standing. so far the french prosecutor says isis leader abdelhamid abaaoud is not among the people arrested, but it's not clear if he was killed. also, stunning new images from the "daily mail" of friday's deadly rampage captured on a cafe surveillance camera. an attacker appears in the upper left of the screen and opens fire. he walks out of the frame and

then reappears, taking aim at a customer outside, but his weapon jams and he moves on. seconds later, that would-be victim pops up and escapes. and this morning police are still looking for two suspects believed to be among the terrorists who carried out friday's attacks. kendis and reena. >> marci gonzalez reporting from paris. back home new york city officials are responding forcefully to the latest threat from isis. the group released this video showing images of times square but the mayor says there's no specific or credible threat. he urged new yorkers to go about their regular business. the mayor spoke alongside the police commissioner just a few hours ago in times square. >> there is nothing new about that video. new york, obviously, remains one of the top terrorist targets in the world. in new york we understand we're a terrorist target. it reflects the importance of the city. >> the police commissioner had a message to the millions of tourists expected to arrive in

don't be afraid. another image being released by isis in a propaganda magazine, it shows an improvised explosive device in a soda can and smuggled on board that russian jet that blew up. brian ross on whether that claim is credible. >> reporter: the components are simple, costing no more than $50. a soda can packed with explosives and a few wires. but bomb experts say it could produce a blast much more powerful than the one in this government test. isis proudly displayed what it says is the bomb that brought down the russian jet. a schweppes pineapple drink can stuffed with explosives would be ignited by this small detonator with a blasting cap stuck into the can, wired to this, the switch, with a timer likely hidden behind the black tape. >> close the switch and arm the timer to start the -- its

>> reporter: the plane blew up 22 minutes after takeoff. based on the location of the wreckage, u.s. authorities believe the bomb was likely placed in a rear luggage hold of the plane by an isis infiltrator. in this online post, isis boasted it smuggled the bomb onto the russian jet after it discovered a way to compromise the security at the sharm el sheikh airport. in a grisly footnote, they even produced passports of some of the russian victims, somehow retrieved by the terror group at the scene of the crash. u.s. aviation officials say screening machines should spot a soda can bomb, but there is concern that no security system is foolproof. isis said it originally planned to target another country, part of the u.s. coalition against isis, but changed its mind and decided to hit russia when russia, too, decided to bomb syria. brian ross, abc news, new york. the new security concerns sparked by the terror attacks are fueling a bitter war of words over syrian refugees coming to america.

a house bill is -- the house is voting on a bill today, calling for tougher screening standards for incoming refugees. president obama is threatening a veto. he called a plan by ted cruz to ban muslim refugees un-american, but cruz is standing his ground. >> i would encourage you, mr. president, come back and insult me to my face. let's have a debate on syrian refugees right now. >> so far, 31 governors say refugees are not welcomed in their states. a syrian refugee family was diverted to connecticut after indiana officials rejected plans for them to settle in indianapolis. insomniacs, i don't have good news for you. returning now to how the way sleep affects our health. a new study connects sleep change cycles to higher cholesterol, bmi, and larger waistlines. they say those who keep to a routine sleep schedule, even on your days off, cut the risk for heart disease and diabetes, but

jet lag, the mismatch between our body clocks and socially imposed sleep schedules. >> that's all of us. >> all of us. >> in these hours. you embrace it. so while talking about sleep, of course, the guy we're about to show you is getting none of it these days. and he's doing it by choice. we're talking about the head of our medical unit, dan childs. >> look at that shirt. yes, dan is still awake. he's part of the "good morning america" "40 for 40" live stream and he's trying to stay awake for 40 hours straight. he's doing it as a sleep deprivation experiment. >> is this live right now of dan? dan might look a little bored. we'll talk to him in our next half hour. you can see his live stream at abcnews.com. shia labeouf, eat your heart out. coming up, new york cab

critical injuries remain hospitalized, reena and kendis. >> our thanks to brandi hitt. coming up as "gma's" 40 for 40" live streaming event stretches into its 33rd hour, dialing back its own clock with surprise guests. we're sharing some memories. >> who could it be? in the next half hour, a warning about super bugs in meat. what can be done about antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the food supply. you're watching "world news now." >> announcer: "world news now" continues after this from our abc stations.nt bacteria in the food supply. you're watching "world news

>> announcer i can't tell you how excited i am. the wait is over. time to reveal our surprise guests to people who really need no introduction. most of you know exactly who they are. they are distinguished to be the only two people to anchor this phenomenal broadcast and "good morning america." kevin newman spent a year and a

half in this studio, a time in which canadians like himself held an iron grip on the "world news now" anchor desk. >> so true. >> and lisa mcree, famous for never sitting behind a traditional anchor desk. she and aaron brown, they were the pioneers, the founding mother and father, really, of this famous anchor team of "world news now." we welcome them now, kevin and lisa. i can't tell you, we have been awaiting your arrival. >> this is so much fun. >> oh, look how old he is? >> you were 12 years old when you broadcast, weren't you? >> i had a lot more hair, too. >> holy cow. >> what do you guys think? you're back now. >> you know, it was a brand-new show for me. aaron brown and i started the show with our executive producer. i'm still friends with both of them. i really -- i love them. you know, they will be friends forever. and we just made it up as we went along. and none of the grownups were watching. it was like the mice were coming in and moving the furniture around. >> we still feel like that

today. >> you know, those people upstairs, they're not watching us. >> it really was the -- i think the most liberating broadcasting i've ever done in my career, because you could make it up. and you did have that feeling of, you know, nobody's watching and i've never felt closer to viewers and my audience than i did on this broadcast. >> you started this show. what was it like in the very beginning? >> we had a basement office because the grownups wouldn't let us come upstairs i think until they made sure we could be on the air for a week. it was dank and dark and there were exposed pipes and it was -- you know, then we went to -- all the grownups would let us come upstairs and practice. peter jennings had his desk right here with the working news room behind him. this whole space you use as a studio was a big working news room. and we practiced and rehearsed at that big desk. and our executive producer, david borman was like, it's not working. it's just not right. he was like, aaron, take off the jacket. aaron, roll up your sleeves.

>> they were always twisting form. that's what's beautiful at "world news now." if you think about the ethic of internet broadcasting, that you do roll up your sleeves, you are much more comfortable in your skin and much more of a person, less of an authority anchor, i think that's the stuff that was pioneered here. >> did you think the show would last that long? >> nothing lasts that long. >> i know. hard to believe. >> it does a great service for people who are newsmakers. when aaron and i started the program, it was the primary season of the '92 election. there was this unknown guy from hope, and he was happy to come in and be on tv for 15 minutes straight without anybody breaking in for commercial. >> really? you had him here? >> of course. >> one of the things i'm probably most proud of is when we were here, we actually pushed this broadcast out over the internet. so, "world news now" is actually the very first television newscast ever on the internet. so, we threw it out there. i still remember sitting at the desk, which was there, and

seeing the signal come back. oh, my goodness, like, at that time, you never saw your audience. today you see your audience, you hear from them. >> how was the format different from back when you started to today, what would you say? >> aaron and i started the morning papers. nobody did that. we had papers from -- you probably remember. i'm pointing at our director nole. >> anybody remember newspapers? >> when would go to the fax machine. we would go to the fax machine and the guys from "the dallas morning news," an actual fax, "dallas morning news," pittsburgh, whatever it was, fax us the headlines and hold them up. >> and there are those ideas. we used to do this thing called dare news. it's still a great idea where you would take a newscast from another country, subtitle it. we would run their news, which was always enlightening to see -- imagine today the kind of story you would get from jordan, for instance, of the syrian refugees. >> and how different they cover it. >> it was a story about polka on the air, and big mouth says --

like, within a week, it took a week for mail back then, there were still ponies that brought it here. huge piles of these polka lovers who are hating me. i had to do an on-air mea culpa and then barry mitchell shows up. >> just to torture you every week. >> that is funny. and he's still around. we could never lose him from "world news now." that would be a sad day in "world news now" history. >> 4:00, all alone and you're not wearing pants. "world news now" is making everybody dance. >> what would you say before we head out -- what would you say is probably your favorite memory of what you remember most about your time here on "world news now." >> the camaraderie, i think. it was just everybody working a hard shift, but loving each other's company so much, and the freedom. >> i have to say, you know, some of the people we work with have become just life-long friends. i remember christie colbin, who worked -- of course, she got married at my house in los angeles. you know, because you bond in a

your pain. i don't want to -- i don't want to do a disservice to service people by saying it's like being -- there is a bunker mentality about it. and that's something you share. and i value those friendships. >> kevin, you've just written a new book out, too. >> i have. the interesting thing about it is it's sort of in retrospect. i'm looking back at the time i came here and how much, you know, very busy life, whether it's in broadcasting, whatever it is, what that takes from your children. but the interesting thing is, i've co-written it with my son. it's this memoir of the same period of time from two very different perspectives. if you're a really brave parent in 15 years, ask your kid to write a book about how you did as a parent because it's -- it gives you a chance to do better. >> thank you, guys, so much for joining us. you're watching "world news now." we'll be right back.ching "world news now."

we should ask them to make a "world news now" remake. >> they wouldn't need to dumb it down. >> this is impressive. i love this one. you know how new york fire department always puts out the hunky, hunky calendars. >> oh, yeah. >> yeah, right. and this year -- well, next year you can get your own cab driver hunky, hunky calendar. this is a spoof. for $14.99. >> are you sure it's a spoof? >> these are the new york city taxi drivers stripping down to their hunky bods, dad bods. >> dad bods. >> lots of hairy chests. apparently all the proceeds go to university settlement which provides services, education and -- look, there's the women. >> very nice. >> well, next year the calendar of your uber drivers coming up. >> could be. so, these guys in the dutch group, in the netherlands, have come up with -- have broken the world record for the longest

bike in the world. take a look at it. it is 117 feet long, which i'm told is about the -- just shy of a new york city block. look at that. now, the back of it, the wheel back there is a little bit thicker, about five inches, so they have stability, but no wheels in the middle. so, that is it. >> would you be allowed to use this in the carpool lane on the highway? >> i think it would count. >> it would count. it's like a long ladder between two bikes. >> they aren't getting a lot of speed on that. >> bet gas mileage is pretty good. we've also got a 50-year-old who has beat his record for pushups. take a look at this. impressive. look at this. >> wow. >> this is william -- carlton williams, who in one hour in 2014 did 1,874 pushup. that wasn't good enough for him. >> that's real-time video.
