good evening, and thanks for joining us. the sometimes fatal collision of man and wildfires has been described by one writer as a colossal blowup. well, the latest blowup came this time in arizona, where fueled by record heat a fire claimed 19 members of an elite crew overtaken by shifting flames. abc's david wright is on the front line tonight where the fire is still raging out of control. >> reporter: the 4th of july is fast approaching, but the flags today in prescott, arizona run from the chainlink fence of the firefighters' parking lot. the closest thing to a parade, a somber caravan carrying bodies out of the blaze.

members of an elite arizona firefighting crew known as the granite mountain hotshots, who perished this weekend in the yarnell hill fire. >> i just can't even imagine how the families and the friends that knew these individuals feel. it just is unbearable. >> our thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the brave firefighters who were out there. this is one more reminder of the fact that our first responders, they put their lives on the line every single day. >> reporter: the granite mountain hotshots are the firefighting elite, the s.e.a.l. team 6 of the fire lines. these young men, seen here in a training video, were trained to go to the hottest spot of the wildfires and tame them by brute force. >> these people keep themselves in exceptional condition. they have considerable weight to carry, and they can walk miles to get into strategic locations.

oftentimes they'll sleep on the ground. >> reporter: tonight we learned all of their names. their next of kin having now absorbed the terrible news. the average age, just 27. young men like kevin woyjeck, whose dad is an l.a. fire captain. >> these a great kid. i say kid, but he was a young man. he was working very hard. he was upbeat, loved to be around people, loved to help people. and he was working toward his dream of becoming a los angeles county fire department. it's a big loss for us today. >> reporter: wade parker was engaged to be married this fall. sean misner's wife is pregnant. andrew ashcraft has four little kids. >> struggling a lot. and -- sorry. i just -- we have three boys and one girl. and he loved them, and it's my job for them to know how much he

loved them. >> reporter: tonight his wife is doing her best to keep strong for their kids. >> he is the best person i've ever met. and he gave all for his job, and it doesn't even compare to what he gave to his family. so -- and they were all like that. they're heroes. >> reporter: the nightmare began friday evening, when lightning ignited the dry brush a mile or so are from yarnell, arizona, about 90 miles northwest of phoenix. brush dry as tinder, high winds and a heat wave. triple-digit heat. by saturday the hotshots were out on the fire lines trying to block a blaze now threatening 500 homes. by sunday the fire consumed at least 2,000 acres, whipped along by winds dramatically evidence in this time lapse footage. what the hotshots clearly didn't expect was a shift in the wind. suddenly they found themselves

cornered. with no escape their only hope, the emergency shelters the firefighters have nicknamed shake and bake tents. nbc's ginger zee explains how they work. >> reporter: david, this is just like the fire shelter that those hotshots would have used inside that fire. i want to show you what it's made of. we cut it open here. you've got fiberglass insulation that is sandwiched by aluminum foil laminated onto cloth. it was their last, best hope. >> reporter: a flimsy piece of fabric just a bit bigger than a sleeping bag. not much to protect you from the infer inferno. the firefighters knew that. >> this is a last-ditch effort for firefighters that are on the line. the fire shelter is something that we are highly trained on, try not to think too much about them because they are a last-ditch effort. >> reporter: they knew that like a seat belt in an airplane crash it's not much protection at all. >> no matter what they hear, no matter what they see or feel, that they have to make just an

absolute commitment to staying with that shelter if they want to go home. >> reporter: they can protect you against flames up to 500 degrees, creating a pocket of breathable air. but inside the temperature soars. dave latour survived a different wildfire in a shake and bake. >> it was like somebody closing the door on the oven. >> reporter: the hotshots had trained with these things hundreds of times. we see members of the hotshots training crew training in that video shot last year by journalist cory galvin. >> when they did the drill with the fire shelters even, although the jokes were kind of going, you think it's a drill, but then you just imagine it won't be a drill one day. >> reporter: never before had the granite mountain hotshots deployed their emergency shelters for real. >> you know, they knew that it was a last resort. you have to have exhausted all other efforts. >> reporter: last night when the prescott fire chief learned that they had, his heart sank. soon afterwards, he had to announce the dreadful news.

>> we're devastated. we just lost 19 of some of the finest people you'll ever meet. >> reporter: today on his shield, black tape, a sign of mourning. >> we've never had a fatality. >> reporter: never a fatality period. >> not a fire fatality with this fire department. the oldest fire department in the state, too. >> reporter: today he lost 19. the community lost 19. in a small town like this you feel it. two of the hotshots used to be waiters at el charro restaurant on montezuma street. tonight owner amanda cordoba denny red me part of john percin's resignation letter. >> "you gave me a chance and trusted me when most people didn't. i love you with all my heart." >> reporter: all day long at the memorial people paid their respects. >> our hearts go out to the families. and it's just -- it's just tough. you see these guys every day. and it's -- i want the community, i want these guys to know their families, we support them. >> everybody knows somebody that

was lost. my condolences. >> reporter: tonight as the arizona diamondbacks played the new york mets, a jersey hung over the dugout. number 19, with the last name yarnell. here in prescott at the first of several memorial services grown men went for their fallen friends. the 4th of july won't be the same this year. the fireworks this year a reminder of a much more immediate sacrifice, one that at this moment is almost too painful to bear. i'm david wright for "nightline" in prescott, arizona. >> our thanks to david wright. next, we go to florida and a contentious day in the george zimmerman trial.

was it self-defense or was it murder? that's the question at hand during this second week of testimony in the explosive trial of george zimmerman. the prosecution featured the suspect's own re-enactment of the moment in question, when he shot teenager trayvon martin. tonight we welcome "nightline's" new co-anchor dan abrams in sanford, florida with the very latest. welcome, dan. >> thanks, juju. behind me is the courthouse where today for the first time the jurors heard from defendant george zimmerman himself as he described to police what happened the night he shot 17-year-old trayvon martin. and yet it was also a day where the prosecution's witnesses and even zimmerman's account seemed to many to help zimmerman's defense as much as anyone. >> do you know why mr. zimmerman

told you he pushed the gun back? >> reporter: in court today prosecutors continued to make their case that george zimmerman is guilty of murdering 17-year-old trayvon martin. >> you weren't able to get into his mind as to why he followed this person? >> michael: ev . >> reporter: even though he hasn't taken the stand the jury heard from zimmerman five separate times including an audio recording made by sanford police the night of his fatal encounter with martin. >> what is your name? >> george. >> reporter: and a re-enactment he did the next day. >> i tried to sit up. that's when he grabbed me by the head and tried to slam my head down. >> reporter: zimmerman told police that he was just trying to defend himself. >> he reached for it but he reached -- like i felt his arm going down to my side. and i grabbed it, and i just grabbed my firearm, and i shot him. >> reporter: the first police officer to respond was doris singleton. >> he's dead? >> reporter: she testified zimmerman didn't even know that martin had died. she even comforted him.

>> i said, well, if what you're telling me, how it happened, is true, then i don't think that's what god meant. he didn't mean that you couldn't save your own life. >> reporter: the collision course of zimmerman and martin took place here in this gated community, eight miles from the courthouse on february 26th, 2012. martin was walking back to a house where he and his father were staying. martin caught the attention of the self-appointed neighborhood watch captain george zimmerman, who called police. >> this guy looks like he's up to no good or he's on drugs, or something. >> reporter: they suggested he stay in his car. >> are you following him? >> yeah. >> okay. we don't need you to do that. >> reporter: what happened next is in dispute. but there seems to be no question there was an altercation. loud enough so that multiple neighbors called 911. >> they're wrestling right in the back of my porch. >> someone's yelling two doors down from me, screaming, hollering, "help, help, help." >> i just heard a shot right behind my house. >> oh, my god. someone could be shot. >> reporter: at issue -- who was

attacking who? >> yes, the person is dead laying on the grass. >> reporter: zimmerman fired one gunshot and killed trayvon martin. those 911 calls are crucial pieces of evidence because they can help determine who was the aggressor. but the fbi's audio expert testified today that it's impossible to tell who was screaming for help. >> there was no technology or scientific device, software suitable to analyze the particular voice we had. >> reporter: the jury's already heard from neighbors who witnessed the confrontation. >> when i saw them there, i didn't care about their size. all i know, i saw a shadow. >> reporter: john good testified that he saw the man he now believes to be martin on top of zimmerman, beating him, bolstering the defense's claim of self-defense. >> well, going back to when they were vertical, i could tell the person on the bottom had a lighter skin color. >> reporter: we visited the gated community today.

what makes john good's testimony so important is not just what he said but where he was. this is the spot where trayvon martin was shot and killed. that's where john good lives. it seems day after day the prosecution's own witnesses bolster george zimmerman's account. >> i haven't seen it that way. i think this case is about putting the pieces of the puzzle together. and that's what this prosecution has done. >> reporter: all along zimmerman has been consistent in his claim that he shot martin in self-defense. including in that re-enactment. >> that's when i walked straight through here to get the -- >> reporter: prosecutors played part of that in court today. >> i shot him. and i didn't think i hit him. got up and said you got me. >> reporter: zimmerman showed police the bushes from which he claims martin jumped out. the question raised in court today -- where are those bushes george zimmerman was referring to? this is the spot where he says

trayvon martin confronted him. there are no bushes immediately here. but george zimmerman would say that's where trayvon martin was hiding. >> reporter: the prosecution also wants to cast doubt on zimmerman's claim that he only got out of his car because he didn't recognize where he was. >> but i knew if i went straight through that that's the circle and i could give him a -- give him the address of the house i'm in front of. >> he trayvon in my yard in these parts. >> reporter: frank is a former neighborhood watch volunteer who's lived in the neighborhood for years. >> up to the clubhouse, where he makes his first 911 call. >> reporter: he supports zimmerman and says he can understand why zimmerman was confused the night martin was killed. >> i've lived here -- at that time i was living here six years. i didn't know the name of the street it was on. i didn't even know it. >> reporter: late today a potentially critical prosecution witness took the stand. chris serino, the lead investigator in the case, who interviewed zimmerman and

recommended he be charged with manslaughter. >> you know the name of the person that died? >> tavon. >> trayvon. trayvon benjamin martin. he was born in 1995. february the 5th. he was 17 years old. a kid with a future. a kid with folks that care. >> reporter: but on cross-examination his testimony seemed to help george zimmerman. >> so if we were to take the wire off the table as a possibility just for the purposes of this next question, do you think he was telling the truth? >> yes. >> the lead investigator says his statement was pretty consistent. and so either he's a pathological liar or he's telling the truth. >> but i think you need to take a step back and look at the direct examination. it was also very, very good, very, very strong. and george zimmerman's own words were challenged by the investigators. >> i just felt like something was off about him. >> reporter: after hearing so much from george zimmerman today, will the defense even have to call him to the stand? tonight his attorney, mark

o'mara, suggested to us that was unlikely. >> you'll need to see something new before -- so as of right now you're not putting him on the stand? >> i hate to say that i made that decision, but i like the way the evidence has gone so far. >> reporter: not calling his client in this self-defense case would certainly suggest o'mara is confident about the way the case has gone so far. but in a trial you can never predict what happens next. and lead investigator serino's expected to be back on the stand tomorrow. i'll be here again anchoring for "nightline." when we come back, we'll return to new york and my colleague juju chang with the dramatic res koouf a 2-year-old hostage at a walmart. this car really turbo charged? turbo charged and it has great gas mileage. that beats choosing between a turbo or great gas mileage. heh. that'd be like looking at black or white photography. now this one is sunrise over cancun... seriously? yes...this is a very special one, sunset over cancun.
