good morning, america. and breaking overnight, dramatic and stunning, new video of bowe bergdahl's release. the first images of him since his five-year nightmare ended. the tense handoff with u.s. special forces, as the taliban with ak-47s and rocket launchers surround him. and what were his final words to his captors? whoa. >> looks like a tornado. >> severe weather striking the middle of the country overnight. 12 reported tornados. powerful winds ripping rooftops off buildings, spilling over this tractor-trailer. hail the size of tennis balls, slamming into homes and cars. >> somebody is actually stuck out in the tide right now. >> unbelievable rescue caught on camera. a deputy sheriff plunging into

ice cold waters to save a teenager in a rip current. how they were finally pulled to safety. and the bounce house horror. the two children trapped inside, violently ripped from the ground, sent hundreds of feet through the air. their parents watching helplessly. now, both children and their parents speak out, right here this morning, on "gma." we do say, good morning, america, on this wednesday we do say, good morning, morning. george is on assignment. good to have david muir here with us this morning. how about that video, released overnight. the whole handoff taking less than 90 seconds. almost looks like the set of an episode of "homeland." >> robin, you and i looking at it when we got in this morning. you can see special forces arriving. they shook hands there with the taliban. and took him to the chopper waiting. they actually patted bergdahl down before they put him in the chopper. everyone will be looking closely at this throughout the day.

also, there's growing outrage about the circumstances of the deal. the taliban detainees, in exchange now, living in luxury and brian ross tracking that. >> lots of questions. >> martha raddatz tracking all of the latest developments in washington. good morning, martha. >> reporter: good morning, robin. this is a taliban propaganda video. it is narrated with rants throughout. but it is the first time the public has seen bergdahl's face in more than three years, when the last hostage video was released by the taliban. this one, about eight minutes of video with a dazed and pale bergdahl, walking to freedom. he sits in a small truck, in local dress, head shaved, blinking rapidly, as if coming out into the light for the first time. there are more than a dozen taliban watching from a hillside. and those surrounding him, armed with ak-47s and rocket-propelled grenades. a white, taliban flag, held as a signal to u.s. forces.

above, american aircraft circles. bergdahl looks skyward, as the taliban shouts, long live the taliban. long live mullah omar. the helicopters approach, as the taliban speaks to bergdahl, who remains expressionless. he is warned, don't come back to afghanistan. don't come back again. you won't make it out alive next time. the exchange is swift. bergdahl is walked forward, carrying a small, plastic bag. the special operations forces approach. one almost certainly an interpreter. a quick handshake and a pat-down of bergdahl's back, to check to see if he was armed or explosives placed on his body. he walks steadily forward. but before getting into the helicopter, another body check, to see if it is safe to put him onboard. the extraordinary exchange, all over in 90 seconds. safely onboard, we know bergdahl

broke down in tears, with the realization he was freed. but how he was taken into captivity five years ago and the terms of his release, are still creating controversy. abc news being told by senior officials and soldiers with whom he served, that he walked away from his base willingly. the army is now preparing an investigation to get his side of the story. bergdahl's parents have not commented this morning about the video. but they are surely relieved to see that he appears to be walking with ease. but officials say he has a long road ahead. and still, there is no sign of when he will be returned home. david? >> of course the physical signs. and the questions about his mental health. martha raddatz, leading us off. thank you. we're going to go to the five detainees traded for bergdahl. there's outrage over the luxurious conditions they're reportedly now enjoying in qatar. abc's chief investigative correspondent, brian ross.

this looks like a luxury neighborhood. >> reporter: indeed, david, it does. the men once considered a high risk to the u.s. are now settled down in a very nice area, where officials say they are free to move around and talk with everyone they want. the taliban five are being kept hidden from view in this tiny country, which has made itself into a modern-day desert oasis. and government officials here say the five freed taliban leaders will be free to travel anywhere in the country and enjoy its pleasures over the next year. the five were last believed to be in a taliban compound, in the luxury west bay residential area, near five-star hotels and beautiful beaches. one qatari official told abc news, they are not prisoners. we are clear about this. america knows that. with no known restrictions on meetings, phone calls or internet access. >> they can still have conversations with the taliban, especially those who are in qatar. >> reporter: and after just a year here, officials say they will be free to go home.

home would be afghanistan. and the areas controlled by the taliban. still engaged in fierce combat with u.s. soldiers. and eager to welcome back their five freed leaders. the state department says president obama had assurances the government of qatar would impose restrictions on the five freed leaders and their ability to return to the battlefield. a spokesperson refused to say what the restrictions were or how they were to be enforced. >> they made it clear. they are not prisoners. >> not prisoners at all. >> brian, thanks so much. now, to the severe weather. a dozen reported tornadoes, powerful winds and huge hail tearing through the middle of the country. and there's more severe weather in the forecast. i know ginger, tracking it all for us this morning. >> absolutely. there's heavy rains happening in missouri, illinois and indiana. but look at this. huge hail is an understatement. it's gigantic. we saw softball-sized and

yes, even dvd-sized, this round, 4 1/2 inches round, hail. 300 weather reports in total. damaging winds, a huge issue yesterday. much of it in iowa and missouri. a lot happening here in nebraska. that's where we find our clayton sandell, in uehling, nebraska. >> reporter: good morning, ginger. i want to show you how devastating this was overnight. right now, they're using generators because the power is out. look at the side of this house. all of the siding obliterated by baseball-sized hail. all of the homes in this neighborhood look exactly the same. >> call 911. that's a gas station. that's a tornado. >> reporter: panic in parts of the midwest overnight. 12 reported tornados. >> is it coming back? >> reporter: 300 storm reports. in missouri valley, iowa, it wasn't a tornado. but a downburst, with 90-mile-per-hour winds. the roof of that gas station, ripped clean off. in norfolk, nebraska, huge hail came crashing down. some as big as tennis balls, slamming into houses and cars.

the windows of this police cruiser, shattered. hail so bad, this driver pulled over. watch as their windshield is completely destroyed. and in omaha, nebraska, flash flooding, forcing people to be rescued from their homes on rafts. >> it's going to be a long night. >> reporter: near 100-mile-per-hour winds, shredding trees and blowing over this tractor-trailer. watch as this gustnado forms. >> right across the road. >> reporter: driving conditions, dangerously terrible along this nebraska highway. and you can see, a number of large trees were brought down by this storm, blocking the sidewalks and streets and ending up in this front yard here, but luckily, no one here was hurt. ginger? >> that is great news. thank you so much, clayton. we want to look because today we

have a chance for people to be hurt, unfortunately. that same storm will move into southeastern missouri this morning. but all the way to west virginia, with damaging winds, isolated tornadoes and large hail. and a new one comes in, robin, from northern texas, all the way through rapid city, south dakota. this is that time of year. and we'll do it again. coming up in your nation's weather, i'm talking major heat. we have to get to that headline, too. >> always something. okay, ginger, thanks very much. for the morning's other top stories, let's get to amy. >> good morning, everyone. we begin with a big scare in the major leagues. a fan plunging from a stadium restaurant into the bull pen. this is at the milwaukee brewers' game. you see medics attending to him there. he fell 20 feet. after losing his balance and flipping over a railing. he lay motionless for several minutes until finally moving his fingers. he was carried off on a stretcher and reportedly conscious. no word on his condition, though, this morning. some tough talk from president obama aimed squarely at russian president vladimir putin, during his visit to poland to reassure allies in the region. the president saying the u.s. will never accept russia's land grab in ukraine. and he warned russia will only face more isolation if it

bullies its neighbors. earlier, the president met with ukraine's new leader, promising economic help but the administration said it will not send weapons to ukraine. a closely watched political battle between a 42-year veteran of the senate and his tea party challenger is too close to call this morning. six-term mississippi republican thad cochran and chris mcdaniel. they're headed for a runoff. we're learning the secret waiting lists were also kept at ten facilities in these four western states, with nearly 100 veterans waiting more than 3 months for treatment. with more than 100 veterans waiting more than three months for treatment. it comes as the white house reportedly considers nominating toby cosgrove, the head of the prestigious cleveland clinic as the next v.a. secretary. walmart workers are going on strike in more than 20 cities

later giving this exflanation. i did see a jerk there, i'm sorry. he claims, it was just a long blink. i don't know about that one, senator kerry. but, you know, we'll give him a break. >> maybe they just shot -- >> a long blink. slow motion. >> all right, amy. >> looking at the back of his eyelids. >> thanks so much. now, to charges of racism. and the audio tape that could back it up, of employees at a tennessee cotton gin filing a claim against their supervisor, accusing him of making racist comments and enforcing a whites-only policy at work. steve osunsami has this and joins us this morning. good morning, steve. >> reporter: good morning to you, robin. there's no way to know the context of the recordings. but no matter how you hear it, it is disturbing. this is a workplace. and the voice is talking about hanging one of his black employees. it sounds like memphis from a

time when black people couldn't eat at white lunch counters. >> let me use the microwave. >> hell, no. >> why can't i use your microwave, man? >> reporter: this morning, two black men who worked alt an industrial cotton gin, of all places, say they were faced with these racist remarks from a supervisor. told they couldn't drink from certain water fountains. one of them recording it with a cell phone. >> put your sign on the wall then because i plan to drink it. >> what do they do when they catch me drinking your watt water? >> that's when we hang you. >> it was stressing me out so much. i got to do something about this. this man, he's going to keep doing this to me. >> we was going through this like every day at work. and we got tired of it. >> reporter: antonio harris and mario mangram went through this for months. >> he said look at him, he looks like a monkey. >> we all know what monkey means. it's very offensive.

>> reporter: now, the equal employment opportunity commission is investigating. after they filed a federal complaint. lawyers said the warehouse will have to settle. >> i'm sure there's going to be other witnesses who can also confirm that these things were said. sounds like a good case to me. >> reporter: we reached out to federal compress. and they got back to us this morning saying they have a zero tolerance policy for this. and that person was removed from the workplace and is no longer employed. robin, david? >> people still watching that case. steve, thank you. >> glad they had their phones to record it. we're going to turn to the big change at one of the nation's biggest food changes, going all-natural. panera bread says they plan to cut all artificial additives from their menu in the next two years, a move they hope will also help their bottom line. rebecca jarvis with the story. >> reporter: this morning, panera bread, one of the country's largest bakery calf cafe chains is overhauling its

menu, ditching anything artificial for what they call clean and simple foods. >> eat deliciously. >> reporter: the newly unveiled food policy promises to cut all artificial ingredients from panera foods by 2016. >> it led us to really working to clean up the ingredients within our cafes. >> reporter: so, what exactly does that mean for panera's sandwich of the future at its more than 1,800 locations? no more additives. added colors, gone. added flavors, also gone. added sweeteners, they're done. and preservatives, bye-bye. >> it's that they didn't remain contemporary. that's what it's all about. how do you stay contemporary? >> reporter: it's a strategy that worked for other fast food chains, like chipotle, which sticks to naturally raised meat and local produce when possible. and an important one for panera, where sales have stalled, just up 2.6% last year, after rising 6.5% in 2012.

panera says it's now about halfway finished removing all of the artificial ingredients. the restaurant known for its bread, hoping this morning, the new changes help it make a little more dough. for "good morning america," rebecca jarvis, abc news, new york. >> little more dough. >> a little more dough. had to go there. >> thank you, rebecca. >> that's what we do. on to the dogs, right? >> indeed. dogs have often been blamed for eating homework, destroying furniture. but one puppy in massachusetts is responsible for driving without a license. this is what it looks like when a dog jumps behind a wheel. >> she's a handful. her name's rosie. it was just scary. >> reporter: and takes her owner on a heart-stopping ride. >> i've never heard of a puppy driving a car into a pond. >> reporter: after a beautiful walk in massachusetts, 12-week-old rosie jumped into

the car, a little too eagerly. >> the dog jumped in and hit the gear shift. and the car jerked. when she hit it, slammed it into drive, she fell on top of the gas pedal. >> reporter: the car rolled smack into the pond, sinking fast. jon, escaping through the front door. >> when the car hit the water, i jumped out to grab the dog. and she leaped in the backseat. >> reporter: a good samaritan overheard the commotion. >> about 30 feet out, the car. puppy had scared and ran into the backseat. the front door was open, trying to get out the front, to coax him. >> reporter: eric herman had been at work. but fearlessly joined jon, diving in to save rosie's life. >> i was over my head, got my feet down. by the time i got the puppy out of the car, had to swim further out. and we had to start swimming. >> i pulled her out. by the neck. i pulled her out. and we both fell back into the water. >> reporter: jon is back at home, with rosie.

happy his pup survived to see the dog days of summer. as for eric, who dropped everything to help -- >> work a lot of weekends. none as exciting as this one. >> reporter: i'll say. the canton police department tweeted this picture. hopefully, we have it. of rosie. he said he was just going along with the flow. just going along with the flow of traffic. no big deal. we want to ask you, our viewers, what's the most mischievous thing your dog has ever done? let us know. @gma, #socialsquare. >> can only imagine with otis. >> the stories go on and on. the years of what he's done. too much time. tuna fish can one time lodged in his mouth for eight hours. let's go ahead and get to the forecast. that's right. and talk about what's happening. that would be philadelphia. we wanted to check in on. yesterday, you saw the storm reports in the midwest. we have them in the northeast, too. today, we wake up dry. but more storms headed our way tonight. a high for philadelphia, 85. 83 for new york city. right along that warm front, though, the storms will ride. and then, we have to mention the heat. oklahoma city could see a record today. and we do have high heat

the waukesha county d.a. said he had never seen a case like this before. and with new details emerging about the suspects in this waste, we're learning more about the quick thinking of the man whose quick thinking helped save a child's life. >> she says she she's having trouble breathing. she said she was stabbed multiple times. >> reporter: a newly released 911 call shows how a passerby helped save the life of a 12-year-old, on the morning two friends allegedly stabbed her 19 times. >> she's laying on the grass. >> reporter: the pair allegedly lured their victim into the woods and left her for dead. a passing bicyclist spotted the bleeding girl after she crawled out of the woods. >> is there any bleeding going on? >> her clothing has blood on it. >> reporter: the good samaritan calmly reassuring her while waiting for help to arrive. >> there's a squad car coming now. >> if the allegations are true, this was plotted and schemed for some time. and it's a brutal act. >> reporter: new details emerging about the possible

motive behind the stabbing. according to court documents, morgan geyser and anissa weier, charged as adults first-degree attempted homicide, believed they would become agents for a fickal internet character called slender man. according to the criminal complaint, weier believing in the fantasy so deeply and thinking she would never go home, she packed a picture of her family in her back pac so she wouldn't for get them. and when describing the ill killing to police, she said, quote, the bad part of me wanted her to die. the good part of me wanted her to live. geyser's lawyer says his client may have mental health issues and shouldn't be tried as an adult. >> to say it's every parent's worth nightmare is a cliche. but it is. >> reporter: geyser's family breaking down while leaving court. and this morning, speaking out. saying in a statement, quote, we wish to express our deepest sympathies and extend our heartfelt prayers to the victim and her family.

but adding, we have been overwhelmed with anguish. >> reporter: in wisconsin, attempted homicide charges must be filed in adult court if the suspects are at least 10. and geyser's lawyer hopes to move the case to juvenile court where the harshest is confinement until age 25. but if they're tried as adults and convicted, they could each face 65 years behind bars. robin? >> ryan, thank you. and dan abrams is going to pick it up from what ryan was just say right there. what's the possible defense here? >> the first thing they want to do is try to move this to juvenile court. that's an enormous difference between being in adult court and juvenile court. and the legal standard to move it to juvenile court is kind of squishy. meaning, it's kind of up to the judge to decide is this case more appropriate to be in a juvenile court than in an adult court. but as ryan points out, it's very interesting, in the state of wisconsin, if you're at least 10 and you're charged with murder or attempted murder, as the case here, you're presumed to be in adult court. now, the burden is on the children.

on the two 12-year-olds two prove that this case ought to be in juvenile court. that's going to be the first and probably the biggest legal fight in this case. >> that's going to be a fight, like you said right there. the fact that they claim that they were trying to please a fictional character, how will that play in? >> we could see an insanity defense, particularly if this stays in adult court. in the state of wisconsin, the standard is do you appreciate the criminality of what you did? and you could see the defense attorneys not just talking about what was going on in their minds. but how old they were. and this is where their age could actually be used to their advantage, even in an adult court, by saying the legal standard is, did they appreciate the criminality? well, no. and certainly no because they were just 12 years old. so, you could see a possible insanity defense here. >> and we've also heard from one of the lawyers saying, he believes that his client is not competent. maybe mental issues here. >> that's right.

separate issues, right? insanity relates to the question of what was your mindset at the time of the crime? whether you're competent to stand trial means today, right now. are you able to, for example, assist in your defense? that would be a separate sort of proceeding to determine can we even move forward? but it's very unlikely, i think, that a judge would say that they're not competent to stand trial. >> thankfully, she is recovering. and that 911 call, that gentleman who made that call. >> the whole story is so heartbreaking. >> thanks so much. we're going to turn to the heroic sheriff's deputy in oregon who nearly gave his own life to try to save a boy from a powerful rip current. he jumped into the icy water to save the team, but got stuck in the water and the two of them couldn't swim to safety. abc's linzie janis with how this played out. >> reporter: these dramatic images capture the moment that deputy sheriff terry brown and a 14-year-old student were rescued, after spending 45 grueling minutes in the frigid ocean, 150 feet from the shore. >> somebody's actually stuck out

was losing consciousness. >> it wasn't me saving his bacon. it was more we were fighting -- we were in it together. >> reporter: finally, the curry county water rescue team pulls them to safety. but peterson and deputy brown's bond didn't end there. they spent the night in the same hospital room. both are expected to be just fine. for "good morning america," linzie janis, abc news, new york. >> all the bacon saved. right? >> that's right. >> as he would say. i came in today, just to confirm, are you really getting married, for all of the men in america? >> david, thank you. you're always my work husband, as i like to say. we'll keep it there. >> write that down. >> we're keeping it. let's start at a look at a slow go in chicago. that's where we want to begin just west, actually, and northwest, in arlington. a little rain this morning. and that will be moving through. but the heaviest rain is south of there. and that's going to cause some flooding potential. especially in parts of kansas. and then, you see into missouri. our map kind of tilted here. if you see in kentucky and

"consumer reports" recruited volunteers who wore two types of

nail polish simultaneously to see which one chipped first. testers had polish from a $2 bottle of sinful color. when it came to chanel's le vernis, it sells for $27 a bottle. and the company said you should use their base and top coat, too. so that adds up. 79 bucks. four that pricey polish, four out of the ten chanel testers said it chipped on the first day. >> don't buy by price. paying more isn't going to get you better quality nail polish. >> reporter: chanel told abc news, that it's designed to find the optimum balance, among many factor, including lasting hold. how can you achieve that salon look at home? we met up with daisy llewellyn, at the polish bar. >> everyone can do it themselves. supereasy tip, and it won't break the bank. >> reporter: her tips for long lasting polish, always use a base coat.
