>> i was the first to be able to be allowed to film using the device. i'm going to be sharing that with everybody in our next hour. >> cool. >> it was very. >> we're going to start with breaking news from the war in ukraine. a major dam was destroyed near the front lines. ukraine is accusing russian forcing of causing the explosion. foreign correspondent tom soufi burridge on the scene in ukraine. good morning, tom. >> reporter: good morning, george. real concern about the situation developing near that dam controlled by russian forces which was blown up overnight. communities along a river in southern ukraine already flooded, with concerns about a nuclear plant in that area. a sense of crisis on the front lines as ukraine goes on the offensive. potential humanitarian crisis developing near the front lines in ukraine this morning. vast quantities of water gushing over this dam. ukraine said russian forces who control the surrounding area caused an explosion, possibly to disrupt an ukrainian offensive. a top ukrainian official now

warning of an ecological disaster saying extreme flooding caused by the dam breach could impact hundreds of thousands of people. police urging entire communities to leave their homes but saying some areas are already cut off. one officer seen rescuing this dog, people grabbing what possessions they can. the water supply to the south also under threat, as is europe's largest nuclear power plant nearby. the dam supplying water to cool its reactors. the u.n.'s nuclear watch dog with officials based at the plant closely monitoring the situation saying there is no immediate nuclear safety risk. but president zelenskyy accusing russia of declaring war on the whole world. it comes with ukraine ramping up attacks, reclaiming land near the city of bakhmout with the counter offensive could be under way.

the united states not weighing in on an official start, but saying the focus is making sure ukraine is prepared. >> we have done everything we can to make them ready to be able to conduct successful counter offensive ground operations. >> reporter: now, it's note worthy that president zelenskyy of ukraine, on at least two occasions last year, warned russia might try and blow that dam up. what is not clear is how much the flooding and the unfolding crisis might impact ukrainian offensive operations along that crucial southern front line. george? >> okay, tom. thanks. let's get more on that from ian pannell. critical dam, critical time. >> that's right. we've got to wait and see what the physical impact of this is. i mean, both sides are accusing each other of being responsible for it. if you look at some of the territory the water's gone away from, it potentially helps ukraine. you look at other parts and it denies ukraine access to it. both sides are blaming each other for it.

we have to wait and see how it plays out. it is an absolutely critical time for ukraine and for the rest of us who have been effectively bank rolling this counter offensive. >> tell us why it's significant for both sides? >> i can think of about $38 billion reasons. it has been $38 billion of taxpayer money that has bank rolled this offensive. all of that matters now. it matters to ukraine because if it can't create momentum on the battlefield then it will have to accept the loss of territory. if russia can't hold on to territory, it will have to accept that it has lost. for america and the rest of the allies they have to decide how much longer they can continue to support ukraine if they are not seeing any impact on the battlefield. this i would say is arguably the most important time throughout the entire ukraine war. >> so good to have you in the studio. hard to believe it was almost, little over a year ago that we were both there in kyiv. i was there to talk with the first lady zelenskyy.

i asked her what is your message to the american people? she said, don't get used to our pain. don't get used to our pain. so when we talk about the money and all that, we cannot forget about the people that are there and are suffering. >> we are seeing that this morning. >> we are. ian, so good to have you here. new details on the sonic boom scare over washington, d.c. we are learning it took more than an hour to scramble f-16's after getting no response from the plane that was off course. our transportation correspondent gio benitez is at joint base andrews in maryland. good morning, gio. >> reporter: hey, robin. good morning. yeah, an urgent investigation is now under way into what happened inside that private plane. officials believe everyone on board passed out and now this morning there's that big question about that delay with the fighter jets. this morning abc news obtaining dramatic audio capturing the tense moments over the nation's capital, as serious questions

are raised about the time it took for fighter jets to get involved. fighter jets scrambling to catch up with an unresponsive private jet flying in restricted air space sunday. the f-16's causing that sonic boom heard across the area as they hit supersonic speed. listen as the fighter jets struggle to communicate with the small plane. but it turns out, according to the faa, the controllers alerted defense and homeland security officials a full hour and a half earlier. >> this is an armed air defense fighter. you have been intercepted. >> reporter: the faa telling abc news it lost contact with the jet at 1:28 p.m., just 15 minutes after it took off as the small plane was headed towards new york city. but the plane overflew islip

airport on long island and turned around toward washington. that hour and a half gap in time and action now taking center stage. >> when an airplane like this is pointed directly at new york city and is not talking to anybody and then turns and points directly at washington, d.c., there's a question about whether norad should have scrambled jets earlier so that the aircraft could have been potentially intercepted before it reached washington. >> reporter: tragically, the plane crashing in virginia, leaving a crater and little else. four people losing their lives. these photos from social media showing some of the victims. azaria and her 2-year-old daughter. her friend saying she was very transparent, authentic and knew what it meant to be a friend. she was focused on bringing aria into this world. it happened. it was a dream. this is just a tragedy. >> and the investigation into what happened with that plane will likely take over a year to

complete. that's if we ever find out exactly what happened because so little physical evidence was left behind, robin. >> so tragic, as you said. all right, gio. thank you. george? the race for the white house. list of expanding republican field. mike pence registered monday, chris christie will announce in new hampshire tonight. rachel scott is there in manchester. good morning, rachel. >> reporter: george, good morning. seven years ago chris christie endorsed donald trump for president. this morning he is now preparing to run against him. just a few hours christie will make it official, announcing his campaign in new hampshire. it will be his second run for the white house. he backed out of the race in 2016, served as a senior adviser to his campaign and later an abc news contributor. since then he has been one of trump's toughest critics making the case against the former president. he's not the only one expected to jump into the race this week. in fact, trump's own former vice president, mike pence, filing the paperwork to declare his

2024 campaign with a formal announcement expected in iowa tomorrow. by the end of this week, there will be 12 republican candidates in this race. one person who is not running, new hampshire governor, chris sanunu. he's saying such a crowded field could only make trump stronger, telling candidates who do not stand a chance to have the discipline to get out of the race now. as for trump, he's still the front runner for now. his campaign is welcoming the newcomers. a senior adviser telling me the race for second is about to heat up, clearly feeling very confident, george. >> rachel scott, thank you very much. all this comes as the legal pressures are mounting on donald trump. his attorneys trying to persuade attorney general jack smith not to bring charges in the classified documents case. pierre thomas is tracking the case. >> reporter: trump's attorney spent nearly two hours at doj headquarters, clearly concerned that the special counsel investigation into trump's handling of classified documents is winding down with the

potential for indictment. they met with one career prosecutor and the special counsel himself who is investigating whether trump illegally obtained documents and obstructed efforts to get the papers back. sources say trump's attorneys were there to make the case that the investigation is treating trump unfairly and that she should not be charged. within minutes of the meeting being over trump posted about how there is no way he should be charged because he's done nothing wrong. pressure building. decision time coming. >> thank you very much. rebecca? we turn now to prince harry. he's on the witness stand this morning in his lawsuit against british tabloids. the first royal to testify in court in more than a century. foreign correspondent james longman is in london. good morning, james. these stakes are pretty high for the royal family. >> reporter: yeah. good morning, rebecca. the prince says tabloid newspapers hacked his phone and sent private investigators after him. they contest the allegations and say that harry has no proof.

and, yes, this morning harry has been on the witness stand, facing questions from the defense. he's already been under pressure. this is the first time in 130 years a senior royal faced these questions. they have pushed him on his claims about remembering and suffering from these articles. he has been forced to admit he doesn't remember reading them. they say how can you be suing for damages if you don't remember reading these articles? he pushed back saying, as a child, every article played a destructive role in his growing up. he's explained how they provoke feelings of paranoia in him. he said when private information that i have shared with one or two people ends up on the front pages your circle of friends diminishes. harry is one of 100 people who claim the mirror newspaper group used unlawful tactics from 1996 and 2011. they say it was used on an industrial scale. the newspaper has previously admitted hacking and they've paid out huge sums for it, but they say they didn't do it in

harry's case. he is expected back in court tomorrow. this is one of six cases that he's involved in. makes him the most litigious royal. >> wow, one of six cases. i know you'll be following. thank you. george? now to the lawyer accused of sexually assaulting four women 15 years ago. he plead not guilty in court monday as prosecutors said dna was used to tie him to the case years after the crime. erielle reshef has the story. >> reporter: at the time these violent crimes sent shock waves through the boston community and for more than a decade these women lacked answers about the man who assaulted him. investigators say that they used genetic geneology to get the suspect. and it was an engaged new york attorney. 15 years after rape cases rocked the city of boston, this morning this 35-year-old manhattan attorney is waking up in a boston jail cell charged with seven counts of rape and second

sexual assault. how do you plead guilty or not guilty? >> not guilty. >> reporter: matthew nilo accused of sexually assaulting four women in the charlestown area more than a decade after the trail ran cold, authorities revisited the investigation using forensic investigative geneology they determined he was a person of interest. fbi agents in the new york area placing him under surveillance. >> fbi agents were able to obtain utensils and drinking glasses they watched the defendant use at a corporate event. from one of the glasses the boston crime lab was able to find a dna profile that matches the suspect. >> reporter: nilo was arrested at his home last week in new jersey. his fiancee seen clutching rosary beads in court. refusing to answer questions. his attorney saying his client maintains his innocence.

>> i haven't seen any factual statements by the commonwealth. >> reporter: authorities say that nilo has lived in several other states including wisconsin and california. they're asking anyone who believes they may be a victim or have additional information to contact the boston police department or fbi. nilo is scheduled for a bail hearing next week. george? >> erielle, thanks. robin? now to strikes and protests happening right now across france. a day of action called by unions following the french president's move to raise the retirement age. marcus moore is on the scene for us there in paris. good morning, marcus. >> reporter: well, robin, good morning. this is the 14th day of nationwide protests across the country. you can see some of the demonstrators gathered in paris. this is seen as a last ditch effort to block the controversial pension reform plan that president macron signed into law in april. he said to protect the country's entire pension system. over the past several months we have watched as anger boiled over in the streets of major cities across the country.

we've seen protesters sometimes clashing with police and in other cases setting fires in some parts. so today they expect 600,000 people to participate in today's demonstration. they hope to put pressure on the government to vote on a possible plan that would reverse this retirement plan altogether. but, robin, the likelihood of this happening is very unlikely. >> thank you, marcus. >> all right, robin. thank you. this morning a sunrise ceremony. people gathered along the beach in normandy, france, to commemorate the d day landing the largest maritime invasion in history. today marks 79 years since the allied forces stormed omaha beach to liberate western europe from german occupation resulting in more than 9,000 soldiers from the allied forces being killed or wounded. visitors arrived in military uniforms and vehicles, paying their respects to the heroes of that time. it was a pivotal moment. thank goodness for their service and bravery.

>> we do thank them. coming up our interview with a navy seal commander. he was in charge when kyle mullen died during hell week training. >> plus one on one with tim cook as the company unveils its biggest product launch in years. but first, good morning, ginger. >> good morning to you. i don't know if you caught the sun rise. you probably couldn't see it because of the smoke. look at this earth cam. this is new york city. clearly visible. that little red dot is the sun trying to come up. we are not alone. it's not just new york city. so many people in the northeast and eventually it will be down to the mid south or southeast. they're gonna see that. you saw that shot from washington, d.c., someone taking off from an airplane, all the smoke below. look at the air quality alerts. vermont, massachusetts, new hampshire, rhode island, connecticut, down into maryland delaware. all the way to st. louis. that canadian wildfire smoke is making its way south even into north georgia by tomorrow.

it will do anything that your mac or iphone can do or more. >> reporter: here at apple park in northern california, ah, yeah. apple inviting me to experience a firsthand film look at the device. i have complete control over it. wow. it's emerging and evolving technology that blending digital contact with the physical world, controlled primarily by your eyes, hands and voice. no remote needed. first an opportunity to transport around the world. it's like i'm in oregon. right there. then coming face to face with in depth memories. >> i felt like i'm at the birthday party. >> reporter: moments nearly impossible to fully capture on a 2d screen. like this mindful minute. i would live here. this is why, for that alone.

are right there. you can take photos and videos and then enjoy those and bring back memories as if you were there. it's not about one thing. it is a platform. and so we can't wait to unleash it to the developers so they can begin to work on applications for it. >> reporter: great potential at work, home and at play. abc news parent company disney jumping in with ideas of how to use it. but there are questions. there's some folks who worry about isolation? >> yeah. >> that it will cause you to be more isolated. how do you address that? >> it's a major point that was a design point of ours from the start. this is not about isolation. this is about connection. this is about having people there that feel like they're there with you. >> reporter: when you talk about tech, course, people want to know how much? >> it will cost $3,499.

it will be available early next year. it's the most advanced piece of electronics equipment out there. it's tomorrow's engineering today. so you're going to live in the future and you're gonna do it today. >> do you think this is something the average person will be able to afford? >> i don't know. i think people will make different choices depending upon their current financial situation and so forth. the engineering and depth of engineering in it is mind blowing. you've got more than a 4k experience in each eye. of course, does it come for free? it cost something to do that. i think it's a great value. >> when he said $3,499, i said $34.9, not bad. almost $3,500. i have dabbled with some similar devices. this is a computer. this is totally different from what people are thinking about. but the price tag is something

that -- >> how long do you think you can stay there? >> i had it on for about half an hour. there was no motion sickness. there are 500 patents in the development of this. you have to have a battery pack. it lasts for about two hours, a few hours. but there's no heat to it at all. but still, i mean, the thing that i heard from people, they asked me about the motion a lot. they asked me about the price tag. >> i mean, that is a giant number. i was fascinated by -- you pressed tim cook a little bit about this question of price and will people buy it. we've seen in the past, i wanted to google this and understand it. i found that the first cell phone, that brick people might remember. there it is. thank you very much. that brick originally when it came out 1984 was $4,000. that would have been $11,000 in today's money. what tends to happen with

technology is that as it gains widespread use, as more people purchase, you get the super users first. as more people buy it. flat screen tv's is an example. the price tends to come down. lot of analysts are looking at this as that. those super fans have to show up first. >> they'll get feedback. that's also what they want. i'll use a golfing term. you can be on the range all you want, but you got to get out on the course. this is what they're doing. they're getting out there. >> what do you think you'll use it for? >> if i used it? i would use it, the meditation part of it was just -- we both meditate. it was fascinating. the immersion, because i'm away from my family. so i can feel them. like if some people can't come to the wedding, to feel like they're there. it was an incredible experience with all that i saw. i kept thinking about the endless possibilities about this technology. coming up i talk with tim about the concerns regarding

problems about the program. stephanie ramos has the story. >> reporter: this morning in a broadcast exclusive, the navy commander in field training when a candidate died now speaking out. >> i was devastated. >> reporter: captain brad gary defending himself blasting the nearly 200 page report digging into the field training course after 24-year-old kyle mullen, from new jersey, collapsed, then passed away hours after completing the grueling so called hell week in february 2022. the review finding the training had become so tough it was dangerous. a claim gary denies. >> that entire report mischaracterizes, misrepresents and misquotes our organization. and naval special warfare, because it was built off bias that was inappropriate and regurgitated untruths that simply didn't exist. >> reporter: mullen, a football

captain at yale, had just finished the demanding 5 1/2 sleepless days of under water and tactical training, but a final medical check showed his lungs were deemed abnormal and his legs so swollen he was sent to the barracks with a wheelchair. gary said mullen's vitals were, quote, very clean, and that the wheelchair was for his comfort. he says it's not unusual for candidates to have symptoms of swelling or abnormal lungs after hell week. once mullen got to the barracks, he struggled to breathe. no medical personnel was available on site. mullen dying several hours later. an autopsy determined that the young sailor died due to a combination of pneumonia and swimming induced pulmonary edema. the report finding medical staff were, quote, poorly organized, poorly integrated and poorly led, putting candidates at significant risk. do you feel responsible for kyle's death being that you were the commander during this time there?

>> there's a weight on the shoulders of every commanding officer that has served. i don't think that weight can be reduced down to one term like responsibility. i will always carry the weight of kyle's death on my shoulders. what i feel responsible for is seeking truth to ensure that it never happens again. >> reporter: is there anyone that you do hold accountable for kyle's death? >> no. his death was a tragedy. this is one thing that i agree with the report on. it was a perfect storm of factors that all combined at the wrong possible moment in time and resulted in the tragic loss of kyle. >> reporter: mullen's mother regina heart broken over the loss of her son and frustrated at the lack of action and accountability. >> the navy seal code item four says take responsibility for your actions and the actions of your teammates.

he's the commander. the commander is supposed to command. four people almost died that day. my son, unfortunately died. he's responsible. i don't know how he could say he's not. >> reporter: the navy has since implemented changes but regina says they don't go far enough. >> i think there needs to be serious consequences. the medical is basically arcaic. it's really archaic. and abusive. the men, our elite men, deserve more. >> they certainly do. kyle mullen's mother is asking for a congressional inquiry into her son's death. mullens' former commander told us he is asking for the same. >> stephanie, thank you very much. it is a tough story. play of the day is next. next. th 2024 chevy trax. w ♪ ♪

ecological disaster saying flooding could impact hundreds of thousands of people. crimia's water supply also under threat as is europe's largest nuclear power plant nearby. the dam supplying water to call its reactors. the u.n.'s nuclear watch dog closely monitoring the situation, saying there is no immediate nuclear safety risk. but president zelenskyy accusing russia of declaring war on the whole world. the timing significant, just as ukraine is ramping up its offensive. what it is not clear is to what extent the unfolding crisis could disrupt. ukrainian military operations along that crucial southern front line. robin? >> tom, thank you. we appreciate your reporting. george? >> we're going to turn to another tech giant agreeing to pay a fine for violating children privacy rules. microsoft has agreed to pay $20 million for accusations

regarding its x box system. erielle is back with that story. >> reporter: there are roughly 100 million x box users. many under 13. the ftc said parent company microsoft violated the children's online privacy protection act by collecting and keeping their personal information to use the system, people have to register with their name, e-mail and the age, if it is a child younger than 13, a parent has to complete the registration. but according to the ftc, microsoft was keeping the information even if parents did not complete that process. microsoft saying in a statement on the x box website regrettably we did not meet customer expectations and are committed to complying with the order to continue to improve upon our safety measures. this comes as the ftc appears to be cracking down on violations of children's privacy. just last week amazon agreed to pay $25 million over allegations its alexa devices were recording children and storing the information though it denied violating the law. last year the company behind fortnight paid $500 million in

fines and restitution over children's privacy violations and in game purchases. something for parents to be aware of. >> thanks very much. rebecca? we turn now to prince harry on the witness stand this morning in his lawsuit against british tabloids. the first royal to testify in court in more than a century. foreign correspondent james longman is in london. nice to see you again, james. good morning. >> reporter: hi, rebecca. the prince said tabloid papers hacked his phone and sent private investigators after him. they contest the allegations and say harry has no proof. today prince harry has been facing questions on the witness stand, more than two hours. this is the first time in more than 130 years that a senior member of the royal family has done that. defense has been pushing harry, forcing him to admit he doesn't remember reading the articles. they said, how can you be suing if you don't remember reading them? the prince believed as a child these articles had a destructive influence on his upbringing. he also talked about them provoking feelings of paranoia,

saying when private information that i have shared with one or two people ends up on a newspaper, your circle of friends diminishes. harry is one of hundreds making this claim, saying they use unlawful tactics to gather information between 1996 and 2011. they say they did this on an industrial scale. the newspaper group has admitted to phone hacking but say they have not done this in harry's case. this is one of six cases he is bringing. makes him certainly the most litigious royal. guys? >> certainly does. coming up on our gma morning menu, more on my one on one with apple ceo tim cook. what he says needs to happen with artificial intelligence. plus a new study about the number of sparks in our waters as we head into beach season. plus the secrets of second hand furniture. look at those treasures. and outlander stars are live.

>> welcome back. we're going to get right to our cover story. a new study about sharks in our waters just as beach season is getting under way. our chief national correspondent matt gutman is on the beach in santa monica, california. good morning, matt. you're near the water but not in the water this morning. >> reporter: hey, rebecca. i'm not sure i'm going in this morning. the study's findings really

sound scary, that there are lots more great white sharks right off the coast of california than anyone anticipated, and they like to hang out really close to shore right beneath surfers and swimmers and kayakers. there are lots of interactions, but very few bites. seems that the sharks are less interested in humans than we thought. maybe that shark from "jaws" was just misunderstood. in a stunning new study, researchers at cal state long beach found great white sharks are far more common off the california coast than previously thought. >> there could be 40 juvenile white sharks hanging out by the beach. >> reporter: terrifying, right? maybe not. actually not. you see, thousands of hours of drone footage have shown great white sharks and humans in the same place at the same time safely. we're talking about many thousands of encounters a year? >> so now based on this, where these aggregations form, this is

happening many, many times a day and nothing is happening. nobody is being bitten, nobody is being harassed. >> reporter: last year we joined chris lowe and his team at the midway point of the study. over the past two years shark lined drones capturing these iconic images. great whites cruising beneath unsuspecting surfers and kayakers. this one right toward the drone. maybe juveniles are not aggressive? >> we think that's the case. they're afraid. the reason they are at the beach -- >> reporter: great white shark juveniles are afraid of us? >> isn't that crazy? they don't know they are a white shark. they won't know that until they are probably over 10 feet. >> reporter: that famous scene where they scream shark and everybody clears out of the water and onto the beach. is it time to reassess that notion now that we know sharks really don't interact that way with humans? >> if we didn't, then every five minutes people would be screaming and running out of the water.

>> reporter: people wouldn't be allowed in the water. >> because the sharks are already there. sharks aren't bothering people. they're not biting people. >> reporter: now the study does not say that sharks are harmless. the folks from shark lab remind us that juvenile great white sharks are still 7, 8 feet long. if they are cornered, they will behave like animals act, to defend themselves. the people at shark lab are begging people not to do foolish things, trying to get too close, taking selfies, trying to touch the animals. that could end very, very badly. guys? >> you don't have to worry about the three of us. [ laughter ] thank you. i know. they're more afraid of us than we are of them. sure they are. >> yeah, sure. [ laughter ] >> we've got more from apple ceo tim cook. we talked about a subject that's been in the news a lot, artificial intelligence. >> it is our mission in life to make other people's lives easier and leave the world a bit better

than we found. >> reporter: this morning tech giant and apple ceo tim cook revealing his take on the future of modern technology, which includes artificial intelligence. you said you are going to remain deliberate and thoughtful in your approach. >> yeah. >> reporter: what are your concerns? >> we do integrate it into our products today. people don't necessarily think about it as ai. what people are now talk about are these large language models. i think they have great promise. i do think that it's so important to be very deliberate and very thoughtful in the development and the deployment of these. because they can be so powerful that you worry about things like misinformation, bias, maybe worse in some cases. >> you saw a lot of leaders in this area coming together. they were really sounding the alarm. they went so far as to use the word extinction of the public,

of the human race. >> regulation is something that's needed in this space. i think guardrails are needed. and if you look down the road, that it's so powerful that companies have to employ their own ethical decisions. regulation will have a difficult time staying even with the progress on this because it's moving so quickly. so i think it's incumbent on companies as well to regulate themselves. >> that includes one of the fastest growing ai platforms, chat gbt. i know that it's an app that's available on some apple devices. you use it? do you have it? >> of course i use it. yeah. i'm excited about it. i think there's some unique applications for it. that is something we're looking at closely. >> here at apple park a hub of collaboration for one of the most valuable companies in the world, apple, now making a lane for itself in the finance

industry by offering a savings account. >> one of the things that we thought we would do, and do differently, is have a high yield savings account. most of the banks are paying very little, 0 to 25 to 50 basis points. we thought we could offer something that is much more attractive. there's been a huge pickup on it. >> it's been very popular. there are some reports that there were some customers saying they were facing long delays in withdrawing some funds. >> goldman sachs is very focused on this. if you try to transfer your fund to a different account than you funded the initial savings account with, it heightens a review because people are worried about somebody stealing your money. so there's a lot of effort going into making this a smoother process. >> before we could say good-bye, i just had to put tim on the spot and have a little bit of fun.

i'll give you an option and you have to say this or that. are you ready? facetime or text? >> facetime. >> polos are suit? >> polo. >> weight training or cardio? >> weight training. >> team auburn or team duke? >> oh, no. don't ask me that, robin. >> i knew i'd get you. >> i love -- yeah. that was a tough one. >> i understand. i'll let you pass on that one. apples or oranges? >> definitely apples. definitely apples. >> kind of knew what the answer on that one was going to be. i just remember. when i talked with him in 2016 about the air pods, he kind of eluded to what we have, what they revealed yesterday. so that's how long going back again talking about vision pro. that's how long it was in the works. you are our tech guru. what caught your eye yesterday. >> i remember that conversation, robin.

takes time to perfect things. for a lot of people, it's not necessarily about having to buy a new product with these updates. it is updates to the iphone that already exist. one thing that caught my eye as a parent of a 4-year-old who doesn't really have a phone but at some point will, this check-in feature where you can essentially follow your child or your loved one. make sure you know where they are. it follows the location, battery level, cell service. gives you an accurate picture of where that loved one is. george, you can imagine this with your daughters. >> especially college now. >> i have mixed feelings about it though. i don't love tracking people. i love knowing they're safe. i don't want the idea of them feeling like they are being spied on. >> you can turn it off. it's an option. >> yes. >> you could maybe have it on when they're going somewhere where you really want to make sure. >> absolutely. >> for a lot of parents, it's that added layer. another thing they're doing.

do you know when you make a facetime phone call and the other person doesn't pick up? they have a feature where it will automatically allow you to create a video. as a parent when i get my 4-year-old ready to call her grandparents and she's excited, i want to create that video in the moment before the moment is gone and she's off running somewhere else in the house. i think also for people when you are on a trip and want to share a magical moment. very interesting. >> also when someone sends you a voice memo or whatever. now it can come in a text as well. >> which is great. >> it looks like super bowl, final four, world series all rolled into one yesterday. it's on going. the developers are there. they're working hard. tim is very good about taking feed back from consumers. people weigh in. they weigh in. that's why they make the changes that they do. >> all right. now ginger. >> so tim's listening? [ laughter ] no hardware changes. all right.

unusually hot in puerto rico. we could see heat indexes 112 to 118. my mom lives south of there in the caribbean. she's in med school. long story. she was telling me it's been so stifling. that's because we are in this pattern that's been stuck, not just in the caribbean but that heat dome. we've got that big ridge in the middle. we've had the low pressure system in the mideast. let's get a check now closer to home. drew: i am drew tuma with your accuweather forecast. the chance of an isolated shower and the south bay giving way to a brighter conditions across the region. we will have afternoon sunshine but temperatures are below average for june. mid 60's to mid 70's. return mostly cloudy once again and temperatures dropping into the 50's. here is the seven-day forecast. the morning chance of a spangle giving way to sunshine.

>> we have gma out loud now. our abc news exclusive with elliot page. he sat down for a primetime pride special to talk about his new memoir. page boy. good morning. >> good morning, george. really integrate interview. elliot page talks about knowing, like really knowing, but not having the words or the permission to say the word transgender. the actor says he's been seeing hearts and minds change on this issue. that's why he feels it so important to share his truth. >> dude, i think it's best to just tell them. >> i'm pregnant. >> nominees for best motion picture are, juno. >> yeah, yeah. that whole juno time. that was quite the time. >> what should have been a moment of joy and triumph wasn't. the actor wanted to wear jeans and a shirt to the premiere of

the oscar nominated film, but needed to wear a dress and heels. >> i felt like someone was forcing, you know, clothing on my physical body. but that is what it felt like to dress a certain way and be a certain way. i used to find it and still find it tricky to talk about. it relates to this, your dreams are coming true. i felt like complaining or feeling bad just so profoundly ungrateful. >> in pageboy, a memoir, elliot is peeling back the layers of who he was in canada. >> at ten people started addressing me as a boy. having won a year long battle to cut my hair short, i started to get a thanks, bud, when holding the door for someone at the halifax shopping center. i was lucky to have a moment to even get me to that place to look how i did. i could sense her discomfort. i could sense her embarrassment.

when my body started to change and clothes sat on me differently and all of that was just -- was the beginning of really sort of disconnecting from myself and feeling a degree of discomfort that was very erosive and damaging. the experiences i had in regards to bullying, it certainly only encourages the shame that literally makes you sick. the discomfort, you know, that i felt really took so much of my life away from me. >> in 2020 the oscar nominated star coming out as transgender. >> the amount of energy and,

quite frankly, like anguish that went towards discomfort that's now like lifted off of me, you know? and i think i'd like to think only is beneficial and the ripple effects are beneficial. >> who elected you? >> victor. >> who's victor? >> i am. it's who i have always been. >> in his latest role, page's character in the umbrella academy makes a similar transition. >> the experience with umbrella academy and playing victor has been such a true gift. i think many people obviously relate to that experience of what it means to not see yourself, think you never will. and then there you are. just start to emerge.

>> good morning, rebecca. we are at the blessing barn a massive multistory second hand shop full of new and used items, furniture and a pair of sister thrifters showing me how to find those hidden gems. low on funds for furniture, don't fret says christie morase and elise coy. the blessing barn in massachusetts has four floors of furnishings at bargain basement prices. >> this beautiful hutch and these pendant lights. the beautiful thing about a thrift store is you have genuine original midcentury pieces. >> this pendant lamp only $75. fall semester coming up. people have to fill their dorm rooms with something. what's this? >> this cool wool rug. this chair which is awesome because it folds up. this is awesome because it opens.

>> reporter: this would run you about $1,160 new. our price $399. everyone needs storage. >> absolutely. >> reporter: what can we find here at the blessing box? >> dressers. a piece like this is fantastic because it can be used in the bedroom or you can bring it in the kitchen as an island. >> reporter: and it's a good project if you want to refinish it yourself. big box store about $2,400 at the low end. our bill just $545. as for tips on stretching that dollar? >> if you have a budget in mind you can chat with the person working there and see if they can give you a deal. >> reporter: don't be afraid to negotiate the price. check the sturdiness of used furniture. open all drawers and cabinets to make sure you're aware of their condition. now, many of these shops are always trying to clear space to make way for new items.

so if you tell the shop that you're willing to take away some big items that same day, likely they'll give you extra discount. rebecca? >> we love that extra discount, ike. thank you very much. i love this kind of shopping because you don't have to build the furniture, robin. having it ready to go. take it away. >> ikea. >> ikea. >> you know me too well, robin. ginger, over to you. >> landfills have more than 12 million tons per year of furniture. so it does save quite a bit. 80% of that goes straight to a landfill. love those stories. we are also excited to exclusively reveal the newest book from the number one new york times author behind eat pray love and city of girls. elizabeth gilbert is back with "the snow forest." it is inspired by a real life family who lives in siberia for decades with no human contact. their mystical connection between humans and nature. comes out in february. let's get a check now closer to

drew: morning clouds, spangle in the south bay giving way to sunshine. temperatures are cool for june. here's the 70 forecast. we keep a average temperaturess >> i have so been looking forward to this. a chat with a dear friend. sports can teach us about becoming champions in our own lives. we are joined by washington post sports writer new york times best selling author sally jenkins. she has just written a brand new book. it is titled "the right call." so good to see you, sally girl. >> good to see you, too, robin. >> i told you on a recent vacation, seems like it was years ago but it was last week. i just devoured your book. i was nodding along and can relate to a lot. most people who watch athletes are like, oh, in awe of them. we put them on this pedestal. there's just so much that we can, that you show we can learn from them.

in addition to celebrating their athleticism. >> sometimes we miss the real take aways for our own lives, right? that was the point of the book. we're dazzled by them, awed by them, but what can we take home? we work at desks from the neck up. are there lessons there that are applicable? there are if we look at them close enough and if we stop being dazzled so much by the shine of the trophies. >> there's some myths that you bust. i know athletes get so upset, he was born with that talent. kind of implying that they didn't work for it. >> that's the biggest myth there is. talent is just an absolute fractional factor. what you discover from examining these people -- i'll give you one example. peyton manning was 32-32 in his third year in the league in the nfl and led the league in interceptions. okay? this is not a guy who walked

into the nfl as a hall of famer. he had to figure out some real flaws. great example, his interceptions. turned out he had very bad feet. he had nervous feet when defensive line men were diving at his feet. he looked at every interception he threw. studied tame with an assistant coach. they designed a drill where they would throw heavy bags at his feet in practice, just trying to cure this nervousness under pressure with people diving at his feet. peyton manning said, they don't come ready made. you don't just unwrap the wrapper and throw them on the field and they're great. >> you also talked about his coach, tony dungy, who also had a lot to do with peyton's success. >> it was a great teacher/student relationship. manning wanted to be great. he didn't know how to get there. >> he wanted a teacher. tony -- i could talk about it all. i want to bust another myth. failure is not an option. even we as every day people, we say that not just the athlete.

it's so not true. >> failure is the most common experience in the world. right? we've all failed. find me a person who hasn't been cut or fired. just like athletes. my favorite statistic at every super bowl is to count the number of people on the roster that weren't even drafted coming out of college. right? the tampa bay buccaneers had 22 guys rated 2 stars or less in high school on their super bowl team. >> wow. >> considered just like every other skinny reject on the field, you know? so these are the things that we miss, right, that i wanted to tackle in this book. >> how can we be champions in our life? >> we could study athletes for their habits, how organized they are in their habits. we could all prepare better. we could practice better in the face of resistance. most of us run around our backhands. we get pretty good at something and then we plateau. we don't really address our incompetencies or our

unconscious incompetencies. peyton manning not only studied the tape of all of his interceptions. he studied tape of the passes he threw that should have been interceptions but weren't because he got lucky or that should have been touchdowns but weren't because he did a little something wrong. he dug really deep into his own performance. it's an uncomfortable feeling. comfort is not the only thing worth seeking. that's what you learn from athletes. >> you quote our dear friend pat summit. in fact, the right call is how you end it, when she did the final four in new orleans. but something that she said people don't care how much you know. >> until they know how much you care. that's a critical factor. there's a lot about leadership. probably the big separator between people who think they can be leaders and real leaders like pat, who are transcendently good leaders. is their communication and their ability to convey that they

actually care about the people. because you don't succeed alone. you succeed through other people. that's the thing you learn from a bill belichick or andy reed. they have to enact their success through 53 other people. companies are the same. organizations are the same. you can't impose success on people. pat knew that. pat knew leadership is getting a group of people to agree that they want to do something great together. >> i'm so proud of you, sally. i have known you forever. >> you're so sweet, thank you. >> i know folks know that you are dan jenkins daughter, the great writer. just so proud of you. >> i got to watch at an early age. i learned some lessons from him and from people like pat summit, bill belichick. these people have been tremendously influential on me, not just my father. the reason i wanted to do this book is i realized i was being influenced by them along the way. changing my own habits at work. >> beautiful book. beautiful book, sally.

>> thank you. >> you haven't lived until you've had dinner, christmas dinner, at the jenkins home. that's something i'll never forget when i couldn't make it home to mississippi. the right call hits bookstores nationwide today. coming up the ultimate guide for anyone who wants to run and you what if magic could happen on main street? what if i could walk into a cartoon world? if i could watch heroes save the day...

>> all right. we are back now on >> we are back now on gma with inspiration for anyone with any background or abilitied ability or body type. we have the book the ultimate guide for anyone who wants to run. so nice to have you with us. >> thank you for having me, rebecca. >> we also have bethanny and gitan on the treadmills. we want to get into your story. you had a big health scare. that's what got you into this. >> absolutely. in 2012 i went to a doctor about some hip issue. he said, i know why you're in

pain. i was like, what's that? you're fat. you need to lose weight or you're gonna suffer some serious health consequences. >> what was your next thought? i should start running? >> i told him, do you know what? i'm gonna run a marathon. he said that's kind of out there. >> you wanted to set the bar to begin with. what did you start doing? how did you get into it after you made that initial decision? >> i went home and i got on the treadmill and failed miserably. couldn't run longer than 15 seconds. every day i kept going out there second after second. next thing 15 seconds to 30 seconds to a minute. next thing you know minutes turned into miles and miles turned into marathons. >> you bring up such an important piece of it. because setting that bar in the really big place initially to go for a marathon was key. but you also had to take those baby steps towards getting there mentally. it's all mental, right? >> right, right. >> how do you tell people to think about that?

>> one of the things i tell people, they need to practice delusional self-belief. >> delusional self-belief. i love that. all of these modern marvels, somebody had to come up with it. imagine your cell phone. imagine somebody being like, i want to talk to somebody but i want to be on the go. rebecca you're like, that's delusional. i believed in it so much that i willed my way into running. same thing with anything else you want to do in life. >> when you're talking about that will, how do you overcome the physical pain when you're in the midst of that? >> first thing first. >> most runners go out too fast. they go too fast. they go too hard right out the gate. one of the things we like to do is slow it down. >> slow it down. we have our runners here. great job, you guys so far. i'm really impressed with your work. what are they doing that we can take advice from? >> first thing first, they're walking at a very easy pace. right? one of the things i recommend for my new runners is they do 15

seconds of running and then one minute of walking. we start off with something small that you can do. you can start running and build up from there. >> start running and build up from there. 15 seconds. >> 15 seconds on, a minute off. >> she's doing it. >> she's doing it. >> when it comes to this, 15 seconds on, 15 seconds off, how do you know when you're ready to increase it? >> well, you know because you'll start to get bored. [ laughter ] that's the first thing. if you start to notice, hey, this is easy for me, or i'm recovering very easily, that's when it's time to pick up the pace. or even go longer. >> what's on your play list? >> what's on my play list? eminem. >> perfect. martinez, thank you for keeping us on our toes and our feet. thank you, ladies, for showing us how to be a great runner. this is so important.

thank you for encouraging all of us. you can walk, run. just get out there. his new book is available now. we'll be right back. thank you. and thank you.
