and trouble on the tracks. take a look at this. a man falls between train cars seconds before it leaves the station. one witness tries to stop the train as it pulls away. how did he walk away from this? and we do say good morning, america. how about that video? hard to believe, but so thankful that he was able to walk away from this. one witness saying he seemed a little shaken up but otherwise okay. >> understandably. what a lucky man. we have a lot to get to including a verdict in that "blurred lines" trial. robin thicke and pharrell now ordered to pay marvin gaye's family more than $7 million. this is a landmark case and experts are saying it could change the way music is made. but first to the breaking news. terrible accident, a helicopter with 11 troops on board going down during a routine training at eglin air force base in

florida. we're just learning new details this morning and abc's martha raddatz is in washington with the latest. good morning, martha. >> reporter: good morning, robin. this is a terrible reminder that even in training, what the military does is dangerous and can be every bit as deadly as combat. it was a special operations training mission. a night training mission which makes it all the more challenging. two black hawk helicopters, its army pilots presumably using night-vision goggles during the exercise at eglin air force base in the florida panhandle. at about 8:30 p.m., one of the black hawks with seven special operations marines on board and a four-member army crew disappeared. >> there was fog. i do not know at this time if it was a contributing factor but when our search and rescue personnel arrived on scene there was very limited visibility. >> reporter: the debris was finally located about 2:00 a.m. the marines onboard are from camp lejeune.

the army pilots and crew, national guard from hammond, louisiana. the second helicopter made it back to base. this is the second training accident involving a helicopter in the last several months. two marines died at the end of january. but it has been more than 12 weeks since any u.s. military personnel died in combat. robin. >> are there they concerns, martha, about this type of aircraft? >> reporter: well, it's the black hawk and it's really the workhorse helicopter of the army so no real safety concerns about that particular helicopter. just a reminder, again, of how dangerous these real-life exercises can be, robin. >> yes, it is a reminder. you're right about that. thank you, martha. okay, we're going to turn now to hillary clinton and that press conference where she tried to quiet the controversy over her personal e-mail account as secretary of state. clinton said in hindsight it was a mistake to set up that account but insisted she followed all the rules and revealed for the

first time she deleted more than 30,000 e-mails calling them personal. jon karl there and joins us. >> reporter: good morning, george. this was hillary clinton's first press conference in more than two years but she may have raised more questions than she answered. a late-night comedian showed no mercy following hillary clinton's press conference. >> she did not want to have two phones. she couldn't be like, hey, man, could you hold this other phone for me? >> reporter: she finally explained why she used private e-mail for official business as secretary of state. >> looking back, it would have been better for me to use two separate phones and two e-mail accounts. i thought using one device would be simpler and obviously it hasn't worked out that way. >> reporter: republicans were quick to pounce on that explanation circulating this video of clinton from last month indicating she no longer minds having two devices. >> iphone or android? [ laughter ] >> iphone. okay, in full disclosure --

>> blackberry. >> and a blackberry. >> reporter: under state department rules enforced while she was secretary, employees must turn over any e-mails from private accounts that relate to official business. but clinton didn't do that until 22 months after she left office. why did you not go along with state department rules until nearly two years after you left office? >> the laws and regulations in effect when i was secretary of state allowed me to use my e-mail for work. >> reporter: why did you wait to turn those e-mails over? i mean, the rules say you have to turn them over? >> i don't think -- i'd be happy to have somebody talk to you about the rules. i fully complied with every rule i was governed by. >> reporter: now, mrs. clinton said that after she went and organize her e-mails, determining which ones were official business to be turned over to the state department and which were personal, she deleted

about e-mails she determined to be purely personal. republicans are saying that raises serious questions. >> and now you hear the congressman in charge of this benghazi committee says he wants mrs. clinton to come up not once but twice, now to the committee, one to simply answer questions about the e-mails. >> reporter: mrs. clinton has signaled through the democrats on that committee, that she is willing to voluntarily appear before that committee but, george, as you can imagine highly unlikely she would agree to come back to that committee twice, because it's almost certain both of those appearances -- >> thanks very much. now to the latest fallout from that racist video at the university of oklahoma. the school has expelled two fraternity members after they were caught on video leading the chant and we're learning more about two of the students involved. abc's ryan owens has that story. >> reporter: students here now

have a new chant they'd like to be known for. protesting overnight outside the now-vacant home of the sigma alpha epsilon fraternity. >> you can hang them from a tree -- >> reporter: as this morning parker rice, the fresh face frat boy leading members of sae in that now-infamous chant, is apologizing publicly. i'm deeply sorry for what i did saturday night. it was wrong and reckless. i made a horrible mistake. he goes on to say alcohol may have fueled his bad decision-making but that's not an excuse. yes, the song was taught to us, rice continues, but that too doesn't work as an explanation. rice says he withdrew from the university of oklahoma monday, matt lopez was his dormmate here. >> i know parker and he's not a racist. he's really not. he compromised his morality for the liking of his friends. >> reporter: late tuesday brody and susan pettit said their son levi participated in the video as well.

his parents apologized and said that he's not a racist and he will live with the donconsequences forever. overnight national's sae national office responding distancing itself from the ou chapter saying they do not teach that racist chant adding, our investigation has found very likely that the men learned the song from fellow chapter members, which reiterates why sigma alpha epsilon did not hesitate to close the chapter completely. another sign this scandal may extend well beyond the university of oklahoma. the president of the university of texas, at austin, saying he is looking into reports the sae chapter used exactly the same chant. george. >> this is not over yet, okay, ryan, thanks very much. we're going to get the latest on the boston marathon bombing trial where jurors were shown the chilling blood-stained letters dzhokhar tsarnaev wrote inside the small boat where he was captured. abc's tom llamas was inside the courtroom and he joins us now from boston. good morning, tom. >> reporter: george, good morning. that boat a critical piece of

evidence for both sides. the defense trying to build sympathy for dzhokhar tsarnaev, wants jurors to see that he was fired at more than 200 times when he was hiding out. prosecutors showed their cards in court yesterday. pieces of that boat that contain a jihadi message. in court tuesday, prosecutors presenting evidence they say shows the possible motive behind the actions of alleged boston bombers dzhokhar tsarnaev and his brother tamerlan. prosecutors showing these photos taken from inside the boat he was hiding in, the boat's interior panels riddled with bullets and inscribed on them a terror manifesto. writing, "the u.s. government is killing our innocent civilians" and "we muslims are one body. you hurt one, you hurt us all" his handwriting surprisingly neat, given his wounded condition, and at one point he praises jihadi fighters, know you are fighting men who look into the barrel of your gun and

see and heaven and this key statement, missing words because of a bullet hole, "now i don't like killing innocent people. it is forbidden in islam but due to -- it is allowed." the defense wants to highlight more than 200 rounds were fired at the boat when he was hiding inside of it and they hope to build sympathy for the young terrorist in hopes of sparing him the death penalty. the judge ending court early tuesday so he could personally examine the boat himself to determine whether jurors should see the vessel up close. and this morning, jurors are going to learn more about that pressure cooker bomb he and his brother used at the boston marathon. robin. >> all right, tom, thank you. now to the "blurred lines" trial. a jury ruling robin thicke and pharrell williams ripped off marvin gaye, awarding that family millions. many experts say this could have a chilling effect on the music business, changing how musicians work and opening them up to new copyright claims. abc's kendis gibson has more on that.

>> it speaks volumes about who we are as a country that no matter who you are, if you do something wrong there are consequences. >> reporter: pharrell williams along with thicke and rapper t.i. who the jury did not find liable were not in court on tuesday. but tell abc news in a joint statement they are extremely disappointed in the ruling, which sets a horrible precedent for music and creativity going forward, but with this two-year legal battle over, "blurred lines" finally cleared up, gaye's family now hoping both sides can mend fences. >> we want to put together a tribute show and maybe pharrell will participate. >> reporter: for "good morning america," kendis gibson, abc news, los angeles. ♪ so fine ♪ >> that would be some show. >> it would be quite a show but it will be interesting to see if this affects the music industry going forward. >> yeah, it really will. now to get amy with the other top stories right now. a major jewel heist? that's right, the details just coming in. police say more than a dozen

armed suspects hijacked two vans at a highway toll booth in central france making off with $9 million in jules. police have recovered the vans burned in a farrest. also breaking right now, progress in the fight against isis. iraqi forces say they've captured the presidential palace in saddam hussein's home city of tikrit and they expect to retake the entire city from isis by the end of the day today. coalition air strikes have cut off isis supply routes. iranian advisers have also played a significant role in the fight also. back here at home new worries on wall street this morning. all of this year's gains on the dow have been wiped out following tuesday's 332-point loss, it's the biggest drop since last october. investors are worried the improving economy will prompt the federal reserve to raise interest rates soon. utah could soon become the only state to allow execution by firing squad. lawmakers have approved the idea

as a backup method if lethal injection drugs are unavailable due to a shortage. it's up to the governor whether to finalize that plan. and new fallout from the scathing justice department report about racial bias in ferguson, missouri. we learned overnight the city manager has resigned in the last week, the city clerk has been fired and a judge and two police officers have resigned. some frightening moments on the washington, d.c., subway. you see that man stumbling near the train there. well, he then falls between the cars, look at that, down on to the tracks. people on the platform jump and yell trying to stop the train from moving but it starts rolling out of the station anyway. onlookers fear the man is crushed on the tracks, but look closely, seconds later, boom, he hops back up. he had apparently squeezed into a safe area. they lifted him on to the platform completely uninjured. wow. well, the dangers of live tv were on display in south africa. the camera was rolling as this reporter and his crew were

robbed by two men just moments before going on the air. look at that. the suspects got away with cell phones and a computer. the good news at least no one was injured. and finally, if you just can't get motivated to go to the gym today, let this man be your inspiration. 95-year-old charles eugster just set a new world record in the 200-meter sprint and he finished in just over 55 seconds beating the previous record holder in his age bracket by two seconds. he is a retired dentist from england and here's my favorite part of the story, to celebrate he decided to go back to his hotel and take a nap. he earned it. >> he earned it. so, what is his age bracket? >> 95 and up. >> you go, charles. >> that's right. >> that's great. we're going to switch gears now and talk about the latest on harrison ford who is still recovering from that plane crash. well, the initial report on the crash is now out. and reveals he made a critical decision that saved more than

just his own life. abc's brandi hitt has the story. >> reporter: harrison ford is used to playing a hero on the big screen. >> nice landing. >> thanks. >> reporter: but this morning, a preliminary report on the actor's near-deadly plane crash reveals ford made a critical decision at the controls that may have saved lives on the ground. >> 53-178, engine failure. immediate return. >> reporter: the ntsb investigators reporting just seconds after suffering engine problems, the avid pilot initiated a left turn towards the airport, which you can see put him over the golf course, a right turn back to the airport would have put the plane directly over homes. >> your biggest problem is landing somewhere that you're not going to hit something and he did that very, very well landing on the golf course. >> reporter: the report says the airplane struck the top of a tall tree prior to impacting the ground sustaining substantial damage to both wings and the fuselage. it also confirmed ford was seriously injured.

ford's wife calista flockhart seen here leaving ucla medical center monday, looking noticeably more relaxed than she was the day after the crash. but so far still no official word from ford's camp. for "good morning america," brandi hitt, abc news, los angeles. >> he really is indy. i mean, great reflexes, quick thinking. really saved lives. >> sure did. >> including his own. all right, lara, thank you. now to ginger in boston and all that melting snow is contributing to some flooding there, right, ginger? >> you know, robin, more than 100-plus inches here in boston and this is all that's left. just a foot or so of dirty snow. but here the concern this morning is more fog back to oklahoma city, not talking about any flooding unless you get to the place where they've had rain on top of that snow, and that's a place like louisville, kentucky, that's where we're talking flooding and watches and warnings that are in place, halfway up the stop sign in downtown as you can see. let's talk about what will happen from new orleans up to

for "good morning america," linsey davis, abc news, new york. >> now, back in 2011 ceglia moved to ireland for several months but was then ordered back to the united states to turn over evidence in his case. he later had to surrender both his u.s. and irish passports and he still has a wife and kids here. so, a real mystery where he might be. >> a real mystery at that. >> strange story. okay, linsey, thank you. let's go to amy now in the social square. >> all right, trending everywhere this morning, that hillary clinton press conference about her e-mails. clinton said that some of the personal e-mails she deleted were about yoga routines so it didn't take long for the twittersphere to jump on that. created for this, the unofficial twitter account yoga by hillary. some of the best tweets -- crouching tiger, hidden e-mails. how about server down dog and we like this meme which introduces the yoga pantsuit. tell us what's in your feed this morning. you can tweet us with the #socialsquare and the new york

conditions the companies agreed to without admitting wrongdoing but the crackdown doesn't end there. how did moneymutual prey on unsuspecting customers? >> through the use of mr. williams' celebrity endorsement and through advertisements, they were basically marketing this as this is a safe product and it's simple and easy to pay back and it's actually just the opposite. >> reporter: williams now forced to officially withdraw his endorsement in the stake, something his spokesperson says he's agreed to. payday loans or cash advances are short-term loans typically due on your next payday. while they're still legal in more than 30 states, williams has taken heat in the past for promoting them. >> it's time to hear yes for a change. >> reporter: getting into a twitter war just last month when one user called the loans predatory. williams firing back, get a grip on reality. others chiming in, you promote and endorse loan-sharking. and a spokesperson for montel williams says he plans to

continue representing moneymutual in states where payday loans are still legal and adds that regulators did not find williams violated any law. still, it is very important to remember these are extremely expensive loans and they typically cost 57 times what a traditional bank loan does so the bottom line is, guys, proceed with caution if you are a borrower. >> if you miss a payment you're in so much trouble. >> rebecca, thank you. and coming up here, the mom-to-be who's under fire right now for being too fit just weeks before giving birth. plus, the "ghostbusters'" battle of the sexes heats up. ♪ who you gonna call ghostbusters ♪ rs ♪ the sexes heats up. ♪ who you gonna call ghostbusters ♪ with the best. for the 12th year in a row royal caribbean has not only been voted best cruise line in the caribbean but best cruise line overall. now with our bogo 50 sale. book one guest and get a second guest 50% off. buy one premium beverage package and get another for 50% off.

he's a very relentless killer and it's a fun character to play because it's not me and that's as an actor i love to get to do that and i think the film itself like what price plays in, this film is like -- it's really a great action movie but has a real story to it so i love it like the story about the father/son relationship is like a classic gangster tale. >> it really is. and when liam was here and talking, we showed a little of the clip. you all are in this fight scene where he even -- well, i don't want to give away too much of it but you like that physical -- >> oh, i love it. it was like i couldn't wait to go man-to-man with liam neeson, you know, our characters -- when i told my friends i was in a movie with liam neeson, they were like, i bet he's going to kick your ass -- >> can we say that in the morning, no, because that's the kind of character we see from him and i mean this, you really hold your own in this film but you said you also want -- you appreciate the roles like you had in "selma." >> yes. >> this is a fun action flick but you wanted to have roles

that inspire people, lift people up. >> yeah, well, i feel like i like diversity as an actor. i like to be able to go from anything from a love story to drama to action. but all of it having character and, you know, of course, "selma" was incredible blessing. just to have depth as human beings, you know, so we can show the depth because acting, you can inspire people through these stories and you can help people through acting and storytelling also. >> and through music, as well. so which one is it and which one do you find a little more challenging and difficult? >> i mean, you know because i'm newer to acting there's more challenge but that makes it pore exciting. i love creating both. i love being a musician. i love being an actor and god willing i'll just continue to keep growing. >> going to do this and still record. >> yes, yes. >> all right. i said this, you may be back at the oscars one day as a nominee for your acting ability. >> ooh. >> might have room for that --
