>> a shocking split, gwyneth paltrow and chris martin call it quits. how they're working together to maintain their family. if you had only joined us a few seconds before we were on air, that much. we say good morning, america, wednesday morning. we want to take a look at this. we all know it's spring. tell the map here in new england. we're going to show you a picture off the coast of cape cod. >> oh, wow. >> a blizzard up there right now. >> it's like a movie scene with a bad rain. >> that's all snow, my friend. >> it's the real deal.

you heard it here. ginger is going to have the latest. >> we begin with the search for the missing plane. they're now calling this the most incredible lead. 48 hours after the prime minister declared all 239 lost, planes race to this area. we're going to go to abc's david kerley. good morning to you. >> good morning, josh. could this be the break the searchers are looking for. as the malaysians say this is the most credible lead so far. this shows 122 items, some as big as 75 feet long and some of the areas other satellites saw, too. a french satellite snapped these three days ago.

>> some form of object. it is confirmed to be mh 370 and then we can move onto next stage. >> reporter: while these satellites see something, none of the ships on the water have been able to find debris. on one of those search flights today, abc's clayton sandell. >> we're in the search area, in the region where satellites spotted debris. >> reporter: searchers are racing against the clock. the pingers on the black boxes, if they are working, have another 11 days of battery life and then the ticking sound will fade. while the u.s. navy has flown in subs mirrorsible equipment, they won't be on the water for days. why aren't submarines involved? >> they have computers on board, sensitive capabilities. >> reporter: the u.s. navy says it needs debris to track back to

a smaller location to even start listening to pingers. >> we're racing against the clock, racing against that battery running out on those tankers. >> it sounds like we're getting closer and closer to the debris area which is west of where we think the path was of this aircraft. even once we find the debris, the hard part comes below this flight path. that's where we have to search underwater. way tougher than looking for debris on the surface. josh and robin? >> of course we'll have updates all morning long as they become available. now to more trouble for the secret service. three members of an elite unit responsible for protecting president obama overseas have been sent home for drinking hours before going on duty. abc's jonathan karl traveling with the president and joins us this morning. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, robin. these were three members of the secret service's assault team. they were allegedly so drunk that one of them passed out in

the hallway of the president's hotel. this happened two days before the president got here. the secret service says that the president's security was never compromised. ever since that scandal involving prostitutes and secret service agents in columbia, they have zero tolerance policy for alcohol. that's why these three agents were sent home. >> they don't want this trouble again with the agency. jon, you were with the president as well yesterday and you asked him a question that's generating a lot of attention this morning. let's take a look. >> in the light of recent developments, do you think mitt romney had a point when he said that russia is america's biggest geopolitical foe and if not russia, who? >> russia is a regional power that is threatening some of its immediate neighbors. not out of strength but out of

weakness. russia's actions are a problem. they don't pose the number one national security threat to the united states. i continue to be much more concerned when it comes to our security with the prospect of a nuclear weapon going off in manhattan. >> that was a real provocative answer from the answer, a real challenge for vladimir putin. he of course sees russia as a super power, not simply a regional power. robin are, we have had no response yet from the russians. >> we should say making headlines across the country, here the daily news has a picture of what he was describing, a nuclear weapon here in manhattan. terrifying to think about it. thank you, jon. we're going to turn now to the weather. certainly doesn't seem like it's march 26th, does it? a blizzard in new england and the deep south suggest differently. that's heading all the way down

to florida. we're going to head to ginger zee with it all. >> it snowed on spring. that's the best way to visualize it. let's go back to that shot that was crazy out of chatham, massachusetts, that wind blowing 30 to 40 miles per hour, sustained. we'll see gusts in the 60, possibly 80 mile per hour today. even if you're not getting the snow you will get the wind. from philadelphia to atlantic city and new york city you won't see the snow but you have gusts up to 50 miles per hour. this is not just this morning. we have to go out west because the big headline out there, that mudslide, this is going to hamper a lot of the efforts. look at that heavy rain through saturday, six inches or more in parts of southwest oregon. >> that rain you were just referring to is going to make

the recovery effort from that mudslide even harder. at least 24 confirmed dead. that number expected to rise as dozens are unaccounted for. >> reporter: firefighters say the force of the slide was like a mud tsunami. >> it's something very personal such as a whole group of little toys that belonged to some little child today sit not guilty a basket. that was a killer. >> reporter: officials recovered two more bodies tuesday and located another 8 that they haven't been able to free yet, bringing the death toll to 24. >> it's slow going. it's not like -- it can take you five minutes to walk 40 feet. then you've got nails sticking out of the ground and things that can hurt you. >> reporter: the search now entering its fifth day almost impossibly difficult, rescue teams facing quicksand like mud. >> they're literally getting

stuck sometimes up to their waist. >> reporter: searchers pinging cell phones, anything to help them find them under a mountain of trees and debris. even with cameras and sonar, they say search dogs have been the most effective. >> we were out there for about six hours, waist deep in mud, digging through debris. >> reporter: some of those who didn't make it, a veteran navy commander. linda mcpherson, a former librarian and a dental office manager and mother. three in a growing list, part of a community that still hasn't come to grips with their loss. >> reporter: as you can see they're expecting yet another bad day of weather out here today which is really slowing things down. rescue teams say they are determined to not give up until they find everyone, but that may take quite a while. robin? >> thank you. we're going to turn now to a remarkable rescue and it was all caught on camera.

a houston construction worker trapped with nowhere to go. flames ungolfing this apartment complex. all around him, he tries climbing off the balcony and ends up dangling. john muller is here with the story. >> you heard the expression close call, it doesn't get closer than this. that construction worker defying flames and certain death and he got an assist from houston's bravest. >> oh, my god! oh, no, my god! >> the video is jaw dropping. watch again as this wall of fire comes crumbling down, barely missing a construction worker and a firefighter. moments earlier the construction worker seemed doomed, dangling off a fifth floor balcony edge at the luxury apartment complex he was working on erupt into a five alarm fire. he drops to the balcony below

only to lose his footing. >> when we saw his foot slip we thought he was going to be gone. >> reporter: the man was reportedly about to jump when captain hawthorne emerged on that ladder. that collapse, the final fiery obstacle the duo was escaping in the nick of time before both men made it to safety. it took 200 firefighters to contain the blaze, the cause still under investigation. incredibly, nobody was hurt. >> just amazing. this morning all the construction workers who went into that building are safe and accounted for. fire officials are looking into reports that flames started on a roof where welding was taking place but the investigation continues. >> in this job we see a lot of close calls. none closer than that. that's remarkable. >> thanks for bringing that. >> you get. we're going to turn now to

amy with a look at today's stop stories. >> we begin with the white house giving people more time to sign up for obamacare. anyone who begins an application before the march 31 deadline will now be allowed to finish it. the white house predicts a crush of applicants in the final hours could cause a computer traffic jam. a problem in space for an american astronaut and two russians on board a rocket that blasted off tuesday but their docking on the international space station has been delayed because of a failed engine burn. they are not in danger. the coast guard is now conducting surprise inspections of cruise ships. most ships are registered? foreign countries but they cannot board passengers in the u.s. unless they pass inspection. in connecticut, a speeding car careened off a highway exit ramp and crashed right into this gas station plowing into five other cars and barely missing

the pumps. four people were injured including that driver who now faces dui charges. one of the biggest stars in college sports found himself in the middle of this huge brawl. heisman trophy winner quarterback jameis winston who is also a relief pitcher had to be held back by security officers. three players were ejected in that game. facebook is betting that virtual reality is here to stay. it is now paying 2 billion dollars to buy oculus, a company that makes a headset that creates a virtual world for users. actual human contact. $2 billion. finally, speaking of facebook who created this reunion. a young woman abandoned at a

burg king when she was a baby, met her birth mother. she posted this facebook request for help in finding her birth mom. that picture was shared 30,000 times and guess what, it caught the attention of her birth mom. katherine herself, the mother of three boys, says the resemblance was so strong it was like looking in the mirror. she described the experience of pure joy. her mom wants to remain private because of all the media attention. she said it was better than anything she could have imagined. he mom asked for forgiveness. she was just 17. she said i'll happily give it to you. >> this is what a followup is all about. now to a terrifying accident out in idaho, two b.a.s.e. jumpers and their parachutes tangled. somehow they survived. >> reporter: this morning dramatic images after a b.a.s.e.

jump goes wrong. these men seen here on instagram and facebook miraculously surviving a 486-foot fall from idaho's bridge. police say he got tangled and the two young men apparently plummeting, hitting the ground, rescue crews rushing to help. >> they landed in a marshy area between the bank or the shore line and the water. >> reporter: air lifted to the hospital monday morning, raw taken there by boat and ground. both young men suffering serious injuries. police say it is legal for b.a.s.e. jumpers to use this bridge, but take a look at this video taken at the bridge last month showing just how quickly things can go wrong. these two jumpers get tangled up on the way do you think, helplessly fighting to regain control. luckily for them they landed in the water. >> in this particular spot there is not a lot of room for error.

if the chute doesn't open, they're a little over 4.5 seconds from bridge to water. >> reporter: thrill seekers like this tend to like those off limit and illegal spots. we saw it this week. b.a.s.e. jumpers released video throwing themselves off one world trade center in new york last september. nobody was hurt there, but at utah's zion national park, three b.a.s.e. jumpers died in the last two months alone. the third body recovered just this tuesday. for "good morning america" gio benitez, abc news, new york. >> thank you for that. we turn now to a colorado 9-year-old who shaved her head as an act of solidarity for the friend who's battling cancer. her school's reaction? to ban her from the classroom for violating their dress code. that obviously sparked a wave of

outrage. >> reporter: they are best friends who do everything together so when she lost her hair to cancer -- >> i got treatment called chemotherapy and it makes it fall out. >> reporter: cameron ren fro decided to shave hers off, too. >> since she was my best friend, i decided to shave my share because i didn't want her to be the only one. >> reporter: but this little girl paid a big price for her bold move. >> i couldn't go to school because of my shaved head. i wanted to share my story but they didn't let me. >> reporter: cameron's colorado school has a dress code in place that says shaved heads are not permitted in order to cut down on distractions and promote safety and uniformity. >> initially i was furious but we respect the dress code. we just didn't agree with it. >> reporter: cameron's mom took

her story to facebook, igniting comments like that is absolutely disgusting, she should be ashamed. what an amazing friend, what a selfish school. this morning cameron is back in her school uniform and headed to class, bald head and all. the school held a meeting overnight, voting to make an exception in this case. even apologizing, saying in a statement, compassion and selfless acts of courage are to be commended and encouraged. >> cameron did a selfless thing for my daughter and it's a lesson in integrity. >> reporter: a lesson that some rules are meant to be broken. abc news, los angeles. >> and so we learn from the dumb yet again. the right thing happened in the end, and cameron, you are a wonderful, wonderful, beautiful friend and little hero. >> true bffs right there.

>> to the end. >> i'm glad the right thing won out. >> but you're outraged when you hear it. basically they did the right thing in the end. should we do some weather, too? i don't have great news. how about we look at great video. no one was hurt. this is why it's great video. time lapse of that dust storm in arizona and today you see more dust kicked up because we see windy conditions from las vegas all the way to st. louis. you can see gusts in the 40 to 50 miles per hour range, fire danger from iowa to west texas, parts of arizona and new mexico, too. your local weather forecast in 30 seconds but this morning's forecast brought to you by clare tin d.

due to afib, a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. i was taking warfarin but wondered, could i focus on something better? my doctor told me about eliquis for three important reasons. one, in a clinical trial eliquis was proven to reduce the risk of stroke better than warfarin. two, eliquis had less major bleeding than warfarin. and three, unlike warfarin there's no routine blood testing. [ male announcer ] don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis you may bruise more easily and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. those three important reasons are why i'm shooting for something better.

eliquis.

>> a cher song for the time machine. >> so it shall be later in the program. but we'll begin with oscar pistorius and the latest in his trial. the trial on break today as pistorius' defense gets set to now take over but a rare moment for the olympian in court yesterday. abc's matt gutman is in pretoria, south africa, and he has the very latest. good morning to you, matt. >> reporter: good morning. every day oscar pistorius wades through a crowd of people here to get into that courtroom. every day he is silent and stoic but for the first time in three weeks of trial he broke that silence. for just a moment oscar pistorius let down his guard telling reporters in court "it's a tough time. we've got a lot ahead of us." following a day in which the inner workings of his romance with reeva steenkamp, whom he shot dead in his bathroom last year, were exposed before the court and the world. the moment of intimacy captured by a convenience store camera. hundreds of shared messages including steenkamp's kiss-blowing selfie.

>> i love it and it goes on so warm, thank you, and it ends up with three crosses. >> reporter: those messages revealing pet names. >> boo, angel, rockstar. >> reporter: but she feared his temper. >> i'm scared of you sometimes and how you snap at me and of how you will react to me. >> reporter: most read aloud by a forensic cell phone expert. moments later after 15 days of testimony and 21 witness, the prosecution would rest. >> this is the state's case. >> reporter: for the past three weeks it's been oscar pistorius that has come out of the courtroom having listened to other witnesses testify but the next time he comes back in here, it might be him on the witness stand. legal expert emma sadleir expects it to hinge on his testimony. >> we're only interested in whether in his own mind he thought he was acting unlawfully in that moment. >> reporter: only one person that can tell us this. >> he is the only one.

>> reporter: pistorius is expected to take the stand on friday, testimony that could last for days. now, the lead prosecutor, we're told, is going to try to get him to unravel on the stand hoping to catch him in inconsistencies. robin, josh. >> all right. matt. >> anxious to see how he is going to do on the stand. former tv and real-life judge joe brown speaking about his arrest for contempt of court in memphis, tennessee. he faces a five-day sentence unapologetic saying he was just coming to the aid of a woman in distress. abc's steve osunsami, you see him there, he spoke with the judge exclusive ly. >> reporter: retired tennessee judge joe brown has never been bashful. >> you're foolish. stop talking. >> reporter: for more than 15 years he held court on syndicated television. on monday on the other side of the bench he brought that same brand of justice and got sent to jail. >> mr. brown, you are very close to finding yourself in contempt.

>> excuse me, on what authority do you sit by the way? >> reporter: these are audiotapes of it. brown running for district attorney is working for free representing a woman who begged him to help her dismiss what she feels is a bogus lawsuit. >> what you would like to do, mr. brown, is argue -- >> i would like to just have it dismissed flat out. >> reporter: behind the bench is magistrate harold horn who unlike brown is not a judge but still has authority in the courtroom and he's refusing to make any decision on the merits of the case. brown keeps challenging him and horn gets fed up. >> i sentence you to 24 day -- for 24 hours in the shelby county jail. >> you're out -- >> get the bailiffs. >> go find the law. >> now you want to get into this, let's get into it. this sorry operation needs to stop. >> reporter: he was sentenced to five days but spent only six hours in jail. then he sat down with us. >> i was shaking hands down there and taking pictures and signing autographs. >> reporter: you think that some people might say you were out of line? >> no.

listen to the tape. >> reporter: disrespectful? >> no, most lawyers would look at it, that's what we do every single day. >> reporter: in a statement a court official told us that this is not hollywood, and as an officer of the court judge brown should have known better, but then there's this, the justice department has been monitoring the same juvenile court after discovering systemic failures for violating due process and equal protection rights in 2012. would you do it again? >> yes, see, what i did was not what i usually do. it wasn't even heated. on a scale of one through ten, this is like a three. >> reporter: for "good morning america," steve osunsami, abc news, memphis. >> unapologetic to be sure. thank you, steve. turn to nick cannon who today is under fire for posting this photo of himself. this is a photo of him in white face. some are calling this racist but cannon is defending himself and abc's mara schiavocampo has the story. >> reporter: though it's hard to tell this instagram picture is of nick cannon and, yes, he's in

whiteface. the rapper and tv host posted the photo monday with the caption "it's official, i'm white" followed by a string of hashtags seeming to reference stereotypes about white people including beer pong, farmers markets and fist pumping all to promote his new album "white people party music." >> by seeing him do this, it immediately puts the album title in your head, so it's actually a very smart move even though it may offend some people. >> reporter: some tweeters found the post funny tweeting things like, welcome to being white @nickcannon, but others called it racially insensitive and not much different from julianne hough's costume where she wore black face in character as crazy eyes from the tv show "orange is the new black." >> i could call it calculated ignorance. there's a double standard

there so i can't say, oh, nick cannon, this is funny. i am offended by it. >> reporter: since his original post he has doubled down posting a new video of a different caucasian character along with the original guy. >> good, bro. >> reporter: a link to this youtube video from 2009 -- >> top of the morning to you. >> reporter: with the caption, funny, no one got mad when we did this. cannon's album, his first in 11 years comes out on april 1st. ♪ >> reporter: some wonder if this could all be an elaborate april fools' joke, a possible promotional prank that not everyone finds funny. for "good morning america," mara schiavocampo, abc news, new york. >> a promotional prank? >> that led to a lively discussion out here. >> it certainly did. >> yeah. >> we can continue that later in the program. >> oh, you don't want to share -- if you're going to have -- if you're going to be offended because of blackface, you do this, yes, people will be upset and rightfully so. you can't -- even though there's more historical -- there's more history behind --

>> is there an apostrophe? >> no. one of her favorite labels is setting up shop here for bloomingdale's department stores on the east coast, that's where they're starting. write this down, new york, new jersey, boston and virginia, not sure -- virginia, yep, got the "v." not sure about the hobbs look. kate sported a very classy festive coat by the brand on st. patrick's day, and you don't have to drain your bank account. some of the clothing is around $100, $200, so it's not a giveaway but it's also not insanely princessy expensive and, everybody, that's "pop news." >> that outfit would be great for spring here in new york city. >> if we knew what spring was. >> heavy coat. we're going to turn now to candace cameron bure. she, of course, is one of the stars on "dancing with the stars," but she's letting it be known she is one star who will not be hitting the ballroom with sexy steps and costumes. abc's reena ninan is here with that story. good morning to you. >> good morning to you, josh. you know, there is many moves that she's done on the dance

floor. she's shown them to her audience but there is one thing that producers, no viewers, no one can make her do. ♪ say something i'm giving up on you ♪ >> reporter: the rumba dance, the line between sensual and sad. but for "dancing with the stars'" candace cameron bure, a devout christian, there is one line she will not cross no matter what anyone says. >> and that's it. that's it. no show. >> might be the one. >> might be the one. >> no, i have to think about that. i'm a christian. my life revolves around my relationship with jesus christ, so with the overall tone of the dance or the costumes, i'm not going to take a backseat. my voice will definitely be heard. >> reporter: bure says while she is a sexual woman -- >> i want to reserve certain things for my husband, so we

-- i think did the best we could with the rumba that i felt comfortable doing. >> reporter: remaining true to herself has been a priority since the competition began. >> what are you nervous about? >> i'm not going to be your sexy girl, you know what i mean. i'm a mom of three kids so i want to look good and feel beautiful, but i will probably say i'm more modest in costuming. >> reporter: but is a little flirting necessarily a bad thing? >> unintentionally i think sometimes if the spark has been lost from a relationship, then sometimes it can make someone recognize what they're potentially going to lose and can reignite a spark, but i don't recommend it. i think anybody who is intentionally trying to get attention to make their spouse jealous is asking for trouble. >> stephanie is a child. i am a woman. >> reporter: best known for her role as a squeaky clean d.j. tanner in "full house," the 37-year-old wife and mother of three recently made headlines when she admitted in her latest book to taking a submissive role in her 18-year marriage. she explained on "huffington post live."

>> the definition that i'm using with the word "submissive" is the biblical definition of that, so it is meekness. it is not weakness, meek is having its strength under control. it is bridled strength. >> reporter: so how much backlash has she received from standing by her christian values? she says not much. her reason for not going sexy, she's putting her faith and her family first. send it back to you guys. >> all right, reena, thank you for that. we asked you earlier in the program with our "gma" flash poll is it okay to dance sexily with someone other than your spouse? 15% of you said yes, which doing the math and carrying the 5 means 85% of you said no. i do believe we should have included a clause for if you're appearing on a national program where dancing is the point. >> that's different. >> i was saying to lara too, the idea of sexy, i feel that's one of the eye of the beholder things. it's not if you are or not.

i guess if somebody finds you that or not, so lots to parse, parsing this is just my seamless segue to "the jury's out," my friends. i'm sorry. i do want to say you can catch "dancing with the stars," robin's judging debut, monday, 8:00, 7:00 central. >> she has been training for that. >> yes. >> i am taking it seriously. >> you've got guns. >> no, i'm going to have fun, but i'm really taking seriously and getting advice from people and going to get out there early so i can study all the dances but that's another story. >> but there's also a hook. there's a very -- something -- there's a personal aspect to the judging which is -- it's a really great idea. >> we will reveal all at the perfect time. >> leave it there. >> but you're back as we are with "the jury's out." >> first up -- >> did we get new music for this? >> every week i get something additional. i got a graphic one week, some music the next. a selfie today. >> the blow to the budget explains the time machine.

first up, a survey from the american academy of facial plastic and reconstructive surgery finds nose jobs and other surgeries are on the rise. they say thanks to selfies. yes, one in three surgeons surveyed said they saw an increase in surgery requests based on the way people felt they looked on social media. and yet when i heard this story i thought to myself, what, mirrors are new? photographs are new? is this novel? >> but a mirror is fleeting. a picture is lasting. >> social media. it never goes away. >> and, you know, we talked about this because it got bumped from the docket last time. i've seen myself like i just took a -- with adam who was here took a selfie with him. you do look at yourself -- i don't think it's going to lead to me wanting to have anything done, but you do look at yourself closely. >> because i feel like it's really helpful. >> i will say to somebody i'm facetiming with my daughter on vacation. and when you look at yourself -- i mean it might be -- the technology here, like, whoa. >> i am so heinous on facetime.

i mean -- >> i feel like my nose is poking through the screen. >> where are we? where is the jury on this? >> the jury says, i'm not buying what these plastic surgeons are saying, that it's all about the selfie, but, robin, you seem to think it is. >> i think it's probably -- >> i do. >> advances in modern technology. >> kathy wagner says, "i think a picture pointing up your nose is going to make it look bigger so they just need to raise their arms." corine hardman-szerdy refers to the surgeons as greedy. a third of teens say they never text and driver according to liberty mutual but make an exception for texting at a stop sign or red light. a piece in "the new york times" argues that's a problem, quote, no matter how i do it, the text or e-mail itself has distracting properties. i know this isn't going to be that popular, but i do think that when you're stopped, if you're stopped at a red light or you're stopped -- i'm not saying

you should go about texting but isn't there some difference? >> no. >> it's legal in the state of york to do it because i went along with the state -- they're trying to change it and in some states it's legal. in some states it's illegal. >> habits are habits and that's when you start and look and it turns green and sort of start -- >> someone could be walking across. >> it's a life or death decision. >> i want phones that shut down when the car starts. >> i agree. >> yeah. >> because it's still a distraction. >> look, it's serious stuff but it does seem -- i sort of agree though with what shelly colip says "it's just as distracting as eating, fiddling with the radio, changing the song on your ipod or how about just having a conversation with the other people in the car." >> i agree. >> brittany green "it's not okay to talk or text while driving no matter if you're moving or stopped for a moment." >> i agree. >> 10 and 2:00. >> i think it's 9:00 and 3:00. >> darn it. >> 10:00 and 2:00. >> 10:00 and 2:00. >> listen, i got lit up last time i said 10:00 and 2:00.

>> i think it's here. >> i use my knee. >> like 5:30 and 11:15. >> thank you there. that's it? >> yeah. >> the jury's in. >> the jury's in. >> the jury's in, yes. a backlog on the docket. >> sure. so many other things to talk about. >> i know. thank you, dan. >> good to see you. now to the latest health trend of hollywood's a-listers. this is called oil pulling, and many say that using oil as mouthwash is a recipe for good health. and we asked "gma" contributor becky worley to investigate, and she did. >> saltwater when you have a cold. mouthwash when you have bad breath. hydrogen peroxide for healthier gums. but gargling with cooking oil? ew. >> oil pulling is taking a natural oil, putting it in your mouth and swishing it around for about 20 minutes. that way you're getting great

oral hygiene. >> reporter: according to oilpulling.com, yeah, oilpulling.com, you only need a tablespoon of any pure oil. i'm going to try the coconut oil because it seems the least disgusting. oh, my god. blah. continuing the direction, move oil slowly in the mouth as rinsing or swishing, sip, suck and pull it through the teeth and i'm quoting here, for 15 to 20 minutes what! >> oil pulling is a completely natural way to rid your mouth of all the bacteria. >> reporter: it's supposed to detoxify you. detoxifying? i didn't know my mouth was toxic. bad breath, maybe. >> it's not just rinsing, you have to brush, you have to floss, you have to see your dentist at least twice a year for you to maintain good oral health care. >> reporter: but the claims online are significant, relieve migraines, eczema, arthritis, bronchitis, improves vision, minimizes hangovers.

this swishing process is eternal. only a handful of studies have been done on oil pulling. a few showed that it can reduce plaque and mouth bacteria that may cause halitosis, but there are no studies in the national institutes of health database that tackle larger health claims. oh, time to end this ordeal. and don't forget to spit it out. so would i do this regularly? ew. ah, no. oh. for "good morning america," becky worley, oakland, california. >> is it over? >> serious, america. becky, thank you so much. >> i got most of that. >> dan. >> becky, we appreciate it. hey, our glam squad is working hard. stay with us to see their magic done.

no . we last saw russell crowe as the father of superman now taking on a role of biblical proportions in "noah." before we catch up with him let's take a look at this genesis of the noah story to find the real noah's ark. >> it begins. >> reporter: the $125 million "noah" movie is the latest version of a story mankind has been telling and retelling for millennia about one man asked by god to build an ark and ride out

a massive flood that would cleanse a corrupt world. the famous verses from genesis have inspired a tv miniseries. >> is it the end? >> reporter: vintage disney cartoons. ♪ oh i'm father noah captain of this ♪ >> reporter: art exhibitions and a theme park in kentucky called ark encounter set to begin construction in may with an estimated $73 million life-size recreation of the ark but what happened to the actual ark? according to scripture it came to rest on mt. ararat that mounted expeditions across turkey and some have taken the search for evidence of the flood to the depths of the nearby black sea as archaeologist gob ballard did unearthing what he believes to be an ancient shoreline. >> i love it. i love it. i love it. >> reporter: and enduring mystery and a tale with enduring appeal. one that the makers of this new film hope will make waves at the

box office. for "good morning america," dan harris, abc news, new york. >> and "noah" is already doing that. we're excited to have its star russell crowe with us this morning. i saw it yesterday with a group of people and i'm telling you, the reaction was just -- we went to lunch after and that's all that we could do was to talk about it. you played so many different characters. first time playing a biblical character much how do you approach it? >> well, you don't really approach it from that perspective. you just try to find the, you know, the humanity in the perpendicular you're playing and bring it down to a human scale. i mean, if you stood back from it and tried to play the resonance of the story i think you'd get yourself tangled up, you know. so it's just a matter of really looking at the man, looking at the time that he lived in, looking at his relationships with his family and looking at the task this front of him. >> i want to talk more about it. at the heart of it it is a story of a family.

but when you were first approached about this, darron aronofsky, the director, i heard he made you two promises about playing noah. what were they? >> i think he was trying to find a way of getting into the conversation and indicating to me that, you know, as heavy as the script may be, that, you know, he's a broader person with a full personality sort of thing and to expect from him that we can talk about important things. he said to me, you know, i said title of the film. don't say anything. i'll make you two promises. "noah," the biblical noah? and he said, yes. here's the promises. promise number one you'll never be required to wear sandals and promise number two, never at any point will i put you on the bow of a ship flanked by an elephant. >> that's a no-no. >> we see -- we tend to see noah through the eyes of the

children's books, you know, and we think of noah -- so many people when i was making the movie, oh, you're playing noah, animals. noah is the last guy left alive and watches the entire population of the planet perish. there's got to be some steel in noah? that part is great. this is you, noah, explaining to your family what you have been drawn to do. >> all right. ♪ >> great flood is coming. the waters of the heavens will meet the waters of the earth. build a vessel to survive it. we'll build an ark. >> the score, the visuals, so much about the movie and you have -- have you found yourself having to not just talk about it

but to some people who haven't even seen it yet that you're having to defend the way that the movie has been -- >> definitely. we've had probably over a year now of very harsh criticism from a bunch of people who put their name and stamp on an opinion that's not even based on the movie or seeing the movie, just an assumption of how bad it could be or how wrong it could be in their eyes which, you know, i think, quite frankly, is bordering on absolute stupidity. you know, because now people are seeing the movie and they're realizing how respectful it is and how potent it is and, look, the great thing about this flip, regardless whether you're somebody of fate or not, as you're experiencing it, you just said a minute ago you come out and want to talk and the subs you want to talk about, our stewardship of the earth, our relationship to animal, what is spirituality, who am i in this world, all these fantastic subjects for conversation, this is a great piece of art, you know, art that can do that for

people, it's a wonderful hinge. >> i'm sure it's part of the reason you're doing what you're doing. why you wanted to do this. >> absolutely. >> is to spark -- we did that and jennifer connelly was here last week and you guys -- you just bring it to a different level and you remind us noah is a family, a family man. >> uh-huh. at the end of the day this is a family drama. >> yes, exactly. >> family drama about a father who is single-minded in the pursuit of a task and the fallout that can happen. >> oh, the temptation and they're telling me to go. i know you met the pope. i wanted to know your reaction because josh and i had the privilege of being there in the audience. this is something about the pope which -- >> look, i think considering the controversy surrounding this movie, it would have been so easy for the vatican to rescind that invitation and just let it be that way, but the kindness to actually let the invitation stand, you know, i thought it was just so consistent with who

he's been -- i'm not catholic and i've never felt any connection with any previous pope but i really like this guy. i like what he says and as we were talking about before, the cameras came on. he's changing the tone of the way you regard the pope and i think it's -- i think it's a magnificent thing and i was really privileged and humbled to be in that environment. >> echo your sentiments. wonderful to spend time with you. lara is very excited about going. we went to the screening. she has the premiere with you tonight. but all the best to you going forward and it will get people talking. it already has. open-minded when you see it.

fell for this character. he's larger than life, violent but poetic and so the look was -- i don't know, getting the look right was sort of making sure he was believable that he'd seen some days. >> he had lived some life. and to get the look, you're an exercise enthusiast. to get the look you decided to get that look you had to go for it so what did you do? >> you know, richard shepherd, the writer and director talked about don's lifestyle, 1 years in prison and the excess and what he enjoys and so we -- just had a summer, you know, saying yes to everything. >> you had a prosthetic broken nose which sounds painful. >> yeah, little things here and there we tweaked with. >> and the teeth. >> the teeth were caps and wearing something up my nose so it makes me look like i've got a broken nose. none of it took too long and
