the co-pilot or the first officer of this flight deliberately crashed it into the mountains. decided to take his own lavs and the lives of 149 other people. >> this was revealed by a friendench prosecutor at he said the co-pilot want to, quote, destroy the plane. >> he is identified as andreas lubitz from germany. the ceo of his airline's parent company is telling reporters that at this point there is no indication what the motive would have been. >> we're hearing from friends of the three americans who died aboard that plane. we'll talk to tom costello and former ntsb investigator greg fiton a moment. we want to start at the crash site. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning to you. it is chilling to hear the ceo of the airline describing himself, as we speak, as speechless. our worst nightmares we couldn't imagine something like this

an a-320 flown into the mountains here. the urgent focus had this morning on the co-pilot, andreas lubitz and what would have caused him to do this purposely. the co-pilot deliberately pushed the button and triggered the plane to go down, he told a the badly damaged cockpit voice recorder indicated first the cockpit door opened and closed a violent knocking was heard, and the pilot was trying to get back in. lubifz was breathing and conscious to the end. the passengers with were likely not aware of the perilou impact, he said. we could hear the cries minutes before the plane crashed. they are making inquiries about the co-pilot's personal

situation but have ruled out terrorism. as the victims' families are being flown to the crash area we know more about how the tragedy hear has touched american families. emily and her mother from virginia were killed on cnn friends remembered them as selfless and loving. >> two amazing, loving people who left behind friends and family who love and miss them a lot. . >> reporter: emily studied the maas music strip at drexel university. she cared deeply for all those in her life. the state department has confirmed that a third american was killed in the crash. the spokesperson jen ps isaki say they are not releasing the names but they have been in be contact with the family. >> wat to gain access to the cockpit. let's bring in be in's own tom costello who covers aviation.

tom, i want to begin with you. this happened at 38,000 feet. the pilot used the restroom and the first officer locked the door and began the descent. is this an act of opportunity? >> the german authorities there, lufthansa, have given us more. the procedure is for a flight attendant to go in and kind of stand inside the cockpit, stand guard to ensure that the pielot who is flying the pl have the a medical emergency a let the pilot back in. that does not have in germany. luft policy. the pilot rings a doorbell and it's up to the pilot inside to look on a closed circuit television monitor to say, yes, that's the captain. i'm going to let him in and open the door. but in this case the co-pilot didn't let the captain back in.

there's an emergency code that the captain can type in if he wants to get back in, assuming that, for example, he he leaves and someone inside has had a heart attack, but that can be overridden by the person inside deliberate act. the co-pilot overriding the captain who was trying to get into the cockpit. the other point here, i'm not so sure that i agree with frenc was happening. if you have the captain banging on the door as apparently was the case and screaming and shouting to get in and the pla is descending i ha quite a few pass jess may have been aware something wasn' >> and, tom, it's amazing the first officer said nothing, said nothing to the pilot who was trying it to gain access to the cockpit and nothing to the ground controls who are trying to reach him. all they heard on that congressckpit voice re his normal breathing. >> french prosecutors are very sure he was not, hem selfimself, having a me sounde but he was overriding that

switch, not allowing the captain in. there's a five-minute break. if somebody doesn't override the switch over that five-minute period, then the door will unlock if you type in the right code. that did not happen. this was an effort to keep the cap captain out >> let's bring greg in. this isn't unusual for the time of the flight, the plane levels off to its cruising alat this institute and the pilot gets up to use the restroom. it happens >> absolutely, matt. and then that's why it sounded so normal up until then the descent happened. now that we have this new information, that will be a concern for world aviation. weigh build these four to five doors, we have these security protocols in place. as we talked about even a year ago with mh-370 just because we do something here in the united states as far as security, having a fligh cockpit blocking the aisle, if you will, the rest of the world doesn't necessarily operate the

same way we do. that's why i was surprised lufthansa didn't have that same pro-tocol. they left the pilot alone in the cockpit, and now we have a new issue. we've fortified the doors to prevent people from getting into the cockpit. now we hav transpiring in the cockpit and we can't get there to remedy it. >> and yet the airline rea has no way of knowing. he hadn't been in the air that long, 630 hours of flying time, 100-plus hours on this aircraft. but i was looking through his record. it looked pretty solid, greg. >> yes, and that's a concern, matt. you can only do so many psychological testing for pilots. they do that normally during an initial employment screen. they'll do psychological testing and that kind of stuff. they do some of that. i know that the ceo of lufthansa said that they don't have a specific protocol during medicals but every ame, every medical doctor i go to for my pilot certificate and medical, they will talk to you, see w your state o like that.

i have a feeling protocols will change worldwide especially after this event. >> greg feith, tom koss it tell low, guys, thank you bot again, a deliberate act on the part of the first officer of this aircraft crashing that plane into the french alps. we'll have more on the investigation throughout the morning. another big story we're following close at home. a deadly and destructive tornadoe the. at least one person died in oklahoma where emergency crews have been busy throughout th night. gabe gutierrez is west of tulsa. >> reporter: this this used to be a doughnut shop. not anymore. powerful winds sliced through this area last night. tens of thousands of people in oklahoma are still without power, and this morning emergency crews are out assessing the damage. >> oh, dear lord. >> reporter: terrifying moments wednesday night as storm chasers captured this tornado on camera

barreling towards sand springs. >> my person is popping. >> there it is. tornado on the ground about five miles. >> reporter: one person was killed and at least three others injured ravaged by the severe weather. >> i just ran. i don't know where i was running to, man. >> reporter: in tulsa, a possible tornado ripped through a gymnasium with 60 to 70 people inside. firefighters rushing young girls to safety. amazingly, they all escaped. no one was seriously hurt. >> reporter: the rain is still going good, as far as the rotation it slowed down a bit. >> reporter: as the storms spread across oklahoma, travelers frantically huddled at the tulsa airport. further south a twister caused damage in moore the same place where a massive tornado in 2013 killed 24 people and injured more than 300. >> nothing compared to may 20th. not even in comparison from size to damage to injuries, nothing compared to that day. >> it's right here.

>> reporter: interstate 35 was closed through moore when they said overturned cars were littering the freeway in both directions. but the mayor of moore says it could have been worse. >> it's just one of those things that happens. leak i tell people, we're the center of the universe, this is where things happen. fortunately, there is no deaths with this. we had very few injuries. >> reporter: here in tornado alley, it had been a quiet season so far. today several school districts in the area are closed. again, here in oklahoma, tens of thousands of people are st without power. u.s. army sarergeant bowe bergdahl abandoned his post in afghanistan and was held captive by the taliban for more than five years. bergdahl i jim miklaszewski is at the pentagon with more on this. hi, good morning.

>> reporter: good morning. an army general has petty much thrown the book at bergdahl. he's been charged with desertion, for leaving his post in afghanistan, a second more serious charge of endangering his fellow soldiers could lady to life in prison. sandra andrews welcomed the news that bergdahl had been charged. her son was in bergdahl's unit, later killed in certificate of operations. she believ actions contributed it t son's death. >> i don't think he should have anything less than life in federal prison. >> reporter: no doubt bergdahl had deserted. >> he left his body armor behind. it was very clear th gone and wasn't coming back. >> reporter:berg bergdahl was held

captive for five years appearing in videos, a propaganda tool for the taliban. >> this war isn't worth the waste of human life. >> reporter: the obama administration released five high value from guantanamo bay. >> they were traded for bergdahl who deserted his men. >> reporter: eager to have bergdahl tell his side of the story in military court. >> people will learn things about bergdahl's conduct, his

motivation, his intentions, as well as the details of his captivity for nearly five years. >> reporter: bergdahl could be offered a plea deal to avoid any jail time. but one official familiar with the investigation tells nbc news there was no indication that bergdahl posed any threats held any malice towards the u.s., but he's instead described as just one really mixed up kid who made a very bad mistake. matt. >> all right, jim miklazewski at the pentagon. thank you very much. savannah. all right, matt. thanks. that is just one story that has the attention of mitt romney romney romney, the former republican presidential candidate recent areally entertained a third white house run earlier this year. he joined us now having decided not to. good morning to you. >> good morning, savannah. >> let's start with the bowe bergdahl case. first of all, you seen he isn't maybe court-martialed. do you agree with that? do you think he should have been? >> well, if he deserted his post, that's appropriate for military justice. >> if a court-martial goes forward and he were convicted, do you think this is someone who

should spend time in a military brig? >> if it were a severe setting, where he abandoned his post and put other members of the military at risk, then, of course, a prison term is something that has to be contemplated. >> let me ask you about the decision that the president made to trade five taliban prisoners for bowe bergdahl. it was controversial. the president presumably knew the circumstances of bowe bergdahl leaving his post. he said, though, leave no soldier on the battlefield. if that had been you in the oval office, would you have made that same call? >> there are two conflicting principles at play here. one is leave no one behind. the other is don't negotiate with terrorists. in a setting like this, congress said you must have the president go to congress. he didn't do that, he violate again the law. but number two the real question for me is, do the people being released represent a threat to american lives in the future. in this case i believe they do. as a result i was critical at the time of the exchange and continue to be critical.

>> it doesn't sound like you would have made the trade. >> i don't think i would have made the trade. >> ted cruz is in the republican race this year. he is someone you have praised for his oratorical skill. i might add he's used against you a couple of times. the reason they lost last time around they weren't conservative enough. do you believe that's crew? >> that's the case he's going take. i believe everybody expresses their own views on issue, everybody choose which views they align with and choose that nominee. ted cruz will make his case. we'll have ten or 12 other people making their cases. we will have exciting debates. i think the democratic debates will be quiet with hillary clinton and people that want to be her vp. i think ted cruz and a whole group of folks represents an interesting thought within the republican party. we'll see who gets the prize. >> so you don't take personal offense that he's basically suggesting the reason republicans didn't win, you didn't win in 2012, because you

were to use his word "mushy"? >> i would take exception. i made a the lot of mistakes, there's no question about th i'm a big target. i'm happy to have people express their views about why i lost, but that's a decision that will be made by republican voters as to who our nominee ought to be. ted is a legitimate contender, obviously, a skilled orator. we have other skilled contenders in the race. i want to see how it works out. >> when you said you were not going to join the race this year, you said it's time for a next generation republican leader, quote, not as well known as you are, who is just getting started and had not yet had the opportunity to take their message across the country. i have to say, governor, that does not sound like governor jeb bush. is that what you meant? >> no, i'm talking about the next political generation. i along with a few other people ran in the last contest and i was not successful and my thought was, we need a new face, someone not yet defined in the public's mind. jeb bush is one of those new faces. i want to hear what he has to

say and marco has to say and chris christie and others. we'll decide who is best able to communicate why it is that republican principles, conservative principles, are the best in helping middle class and par people do better in this country. >> would you consider being one of these nominee's vice presidents? >> i don't think anyone wants to be a vp. >> not a good job? >> i won't say the things that have been said about this job. i'm looking to try and support one of these folks and help >> that sounds like a no to me. let's talk about your next career as a boxing channelmpion. you are taking on ev holyfield in the ring for charity. what are you thinking? >> all i'm thinking is don't get him angry. we have to go soft. have fun in the arena. you are right. we are raising money for something called charity vision which provides surgeries to poor people in the world. he is kind and willing to get in the ring with me and not hurt me too bad. >> evander is the real deal

rocky was the italian stallion are you thinking of a name for yourself? >> just the fastest runner ever seen inside a boxing arena. >> governor romney, i appreciate your time. >> thank you, savannah. let's go back over to al. as we look out west you a picture perfect day if this was not the fourth year going of drought where you could use some rain. but as we look currently, los angeles and san francisco beautiful mornings. look at that sunshine. just a perfect day. geld golden gate bridge, l.a.x., the airport will be fine, no problems. 90 degrees in l.a. man, what a great beach day. seattle partly cloudy. 69, 65 in billings. denver 62. phoenix, 91 degrees. further east while we had all those tornadoes, seven tornadoes reported as gabe gutierrez just told you about, we have rain along this system and what we're look inging at basically we've got this colder air

texas youth bull riders rodeo and the kids start young. >> you know soccer moms. we're rodeo dads. >> reporter: 6-year-old w.k. seymour rides chick. 7-year-old ryder rutledge updated the calfs. by 9 they'll both be on junior mini bull. >> show me the position. that's it. that's pretty impressive. these rough riders are some of the toughest kid in the world. 13 years ago, this was the mutton buster to beat austin malone. you have a fan club here that follows you around the rodeo, i noticed. today, he's the guy they all want to be. even though he's broken his arm, legs and a variety of other bones. two years ago, he nearly died when a bull collapsed his lungs. the same year he won the top prize of the youth bull riders

youth final. >> i'll get on any bull go to any rodeo. they tell me what number. i'll go and put my rope on it. >> reporter: but no question about it bull rideing is one of the most dangerous sports in the world. of the 18 people who have died in two decades, seven were children. >> it's not a matter of when you get hurt but it's a matter of how bad you get hurt. >> reporter: the founder helped push for texas law that requires every kid to wear a steel cage helmet and a vest. >> buckle it up. the head is nice and secure in there. not worried about missing teeth or messing up that pretty fast. >> reporter: a vest and a helmet can't always save a life. in 2009 12-year-old wade hammer died within minutes after getting bucked off and trampled at a colorado rodeo. two years later in florida, 16-year-old brooke coates was kicked in the side and both were wearing helmet itself and protected vests.

in the 16 years the texas youth rodeo has been around no child has lost a life but there has been plenty of pain. so the people that say, are you kidding? are you going to put your little kid on one of these great big animals, you say. >> if he wants to ride that's fine. if he doesn't want to ride we'll play baseball. >> there are kids getting hurt or killed playing motocross or football or take a line drive to the head. you know accidents happen. >> reporter: but rodeo accidents are becoming ever more frequent. over the last three years of one noted study across the board, the rate of catastrophic injury and death increased by more than 100%. >> that spike may have to do with the bulls now being bred for the professional circuit, bigger meaner stronger. as seen here in this professional bull rider's association video. but sometimes those so-called rank bulls end up with the kids.

ten-year-old lance lara ended up on a steer he admits should not have been there. >> it was way too big. your goal is not to get rank bulls in those rings with kids? >> no not at all. do they come in there? yes. do i cut them out, yes? do i tell the stock people don't bring them back again. >> reporter: even the kids today all said they'd be back again. their passion for the sport is bigger than their fear. amazing kids. as for the dangers, one rodeo mother of a ten-year-old told me her son has never had a serious injury at the rodeo, bus his first season of little league broke his arm. >> i get it. i understand what they're saying but those are some tough little kids. >> very enthusiastic. we didn't see anyone forcing tear kid into it. it's a way of life. it really is a family outing i have to say. >> i have been to the rodeo. i when to the the bull riding in

good morning to you. san francisco right now weather story of the day. not a cloud in the sky. none of that natural a.c. to keep us cool. a little lazy over san francisco and san jose. getting into the afternoon, 90 degrees in the tri-valley. 87 degrees a new record for today. right near san jose but the good news if you like cooler weather we have that for you tomorrow. a contractible weekend coming your way. we head into the 11:00 area together. here's mike and the drive. >> the earlier craft cleared from eastbound 580 but westbound has a crash still working. what happened one vehicle spun out and took on three or four other vehicles now we're trying to clear folks to the side. there's the compression in livermore. overall in the area looking pretty good. here's the slowing on the either side of san mateo and southbound bridges. holding steady for the speeds

101 and no drama towards the bay bridge. back you to. >> thank you very much. we'll be back with another update in half an hour. hope to see you then.

it is 8:00 here on "today." it's thursday march 26th, 2015. and we come on with very disturbing news out of france on tuesday's deadly crash of that passenger jet in the alps. >> at a press conference just moments ago, investigators said that the co-pilot of that plane was left alone in the cockpit, then locked the door and refused to let the pilot of the plane back in when that pilot allegedly or apparently went out to use the restroom. and then without saying a word the co-pilot deliberately brought that a320 airbus with 150 people on board down into the mountains of the french alps. nbc's tom costello covers aviation. tom, this is incredibly disturbing and it raises so many questions, although it does

answer a lot of questions as well. >> reporter: well it's now a mass murder investigation. it's just stunning how in the course -- over the course of 48 hours, this has now gone from a big aviation mystery, and we all thought we were possibly looking at a decompression event that would have brought this plane from 38,000 feet down to 6,000 and then slamming into a mountain without any communication with air traffic controllers. and now a very forthright french prosecutor coming out and saying in fact that this 28-year-old co-pilot by the name of andreas lubitz who had no known links to terrorism and who had obtained a glider's pilot's license as a teenager and had about 630 hours of flying time that he wanted to destroy this plane. and that he had a normal conversation it would appear with the captain when they were taking off from barcelona. but then once they got to cruising altitude that 38,000 apparently the captain said he needed to use the restroom. he got up left the cockpit. the door was closed. he used the lav and then was not

able to get back in. he began knocking on the door and the co-pilot wouldn't let him in. no communication inside. no voices inside the cockpit. but the cockpit voice recorder does pick up the pilot then banging on the door and then screaming on the door and then picking up the intercom and trying to get his attention. no response whatsoever. but they do hear normal breathing which suggests there was not a medical issue. and it is possible from inside that cockpit to override the lock. in other words, that external keypad that you see pilots punching in a number to get into the cockpit, you can override that and lock somebody out. and it appears that may have been what has happened. and so this 28-year-old then taking this plane down from 38,000 down into a mountain at a very deliberate pace. and the prosecutor also announcing that in the final moments on the cockpit voice recorder you can hear screaming, presumably screaming from the passengers who have witnessed the captain trying to get into the cockpit and then

witnessed this plane descending further and further and further. and they must have known how it was going to end. just a terrifying, terrifying situation. there is this however, and that is that this airbus a320 apparently performed as it always has, a very good airplane. this is not now, we know a problem with an airbus that they are now worried about the whole fleet. not at all. this is a murder investigation involving the co-pilot. >> a mass murder as you say, tom. stand by there. we can continue to talk to but we also want to bring in former ntsb investigator greg feith. i want to get your take on what we've heard from that french prosecutor and how it is that this is something that could happen in 2015 where we don't have protocols in which you can't have one person who has the will, also have the opportunity to bring down a plane with 150 people on board. >> we're looking at a whole new

aviation realm. after 9/11 we tried to secure the cockpit from people breaching it from the outside. so we fortified, the doors, we put in protocols. we have all of these standards. now, unfortunately, it's starting to gravitate into the pilot community. and this is a real concern now for the world aviation community because we have people that are trained as pilots who have immediate access and they are on the locked side of the door. that is they are protected now from interference from anybody trying to stop them. and that's going to be a real concern. that's why i was very surprised that the first day of this event, they had already ruled out terrorism. and they didn't have any information. so having talked on your air about this two days ago, i was really surprised that they had already ruled it out. i wouldn't have ruled it out as an investigator until we got to this point. and of course now it's obvious that -- whether you call this terrorism, an intentional act, a murder a crime, whatever the fact is is that there was an

intent there to do harm to the aircraft and, of course the unfortunate folks on that airplane. >> and greg let's just mentioned protocol here in the united states that the rules and regulations here in the united states state that when a pilot leaves the cockpit for whatever reason a member of the flight crew a flight attendant, goes in and stands in the cockpit with the remaining pilot, so there will always be two people in the cockpit. one reason to allow the pilot back in the door. but i just -- i would imagine another reason in case something terrible happens to that pilot remaining, you've got someone who can alert the rest of the crew. >> exactly. and that's the protocol that we've put into our u.s. air carriers but that isn't dictated around the rest of the world. we talked about this in mh370 about what we do here in the united states or the western world or specific areas of the world. but the rest of the world doesn't always go along with what we do here in the united states. we don't know what lufthansa's

protocol is especially for germanwings. it's apparent that there wasn't a flight attendant or somebody else in that cockpit for that very reason. was that a breach of protocol or was that complacency, or do they just not do it because they don't worry about it? so that is an issue that not only accident investigators want to see but, of course now the prosecutors and the crime investigation folks. >> we still don't know why this guy, andreas lubitz 28 years old, did this. there are some acquaintances. this happens quickly in the days of the internet where a name goes up online and people who say they know that person start weighing in. one acquaintance said that lubitz showed no signs of depression when they last saw him last fall as he renewed his glider's pilot's license. he was happy he had the job with germanwings and was doing well said a member of the glider club where he was a member. so we still don't know why this co-pilot would have deliberately destroyed this aircraft. >> here's my concern.

not only from an accident investigation standpoint but a security standpoint now in the aviation community, and that is that with all of the terroristic threats that have been made over the last several years, especially in the recent past where they're trying to infiltrate and integrate into our society, quote, look normal now do we have to worry about them looking normal in the realm of aviation and especially as an airline pilot who now has immediate access. so no longer are you going to have the bad guys sitting behind the cockpit door but they're actually in the cockpit now with easy access and able to commandeer the airplane. this young man, for whatever reason had an intent. now, how long it's been going on is a real question. i can't imagine he just showed up that day and decided to do that. there had to be some planning here. and that's what the investigators are really going to have to look at that is the crime investigators, and try and trace this back to an origin and

see what's going on because that i think, is going to be the biggest scare for the aviation industry is can this continue to happen. and how do we stop it? how do we run trap lines? how do we create filters to try and identify the potential for this happening again? and i think that's going to be the biggest challenge now out of an accident or an event like this. and of course mh370 and possibly others. >> and let me turn to tom costello on that very point because whatever the motive whether this was motivated by his desire to kill himself or whether he wanted to murder 149 other people either way, that is what happened here. and tom, we talked earlier about what vetting process pilots go through, either by the airlines or the faa. and is it only at the outset when they get a job and they start flying? is there any kind of ongoing review that goes on? >> well there is clearly a medical review. greg there is a psychological review isn't there, when you are coming back for your regular checkups there is a psychological review in the

united states. >> you go through the protocols when you first get hired. they run you through a battery of psychological tests. but during the course of doing your annual or your recurrent medicals the ame will talk to you. they'll ask about life events and things like that because they're actually studying you to see if there's any issues that they need to be concerned with. >> but you know here's the thing that i came away from malaysia flight 370 with. that plane is still missing, and the leading theory -- and it's only a theory -- is that that pilot went rogue, that that pilot may have brought that plane down. again, it's only a theory. we don't have the plane. but all along, psychologists and psychiatrists were saying it's very difficult for you and i on the outside to see what's going on in somebody's head. if they're having a psychological breakdown, some sort of a psychotic episode, it's very difficult for us to recognize it and know what's going on. and it may be very difficult to see the signs. >> and tom, are we going to have to come up with a new era of technology? right now we have fortified cockpit doors, a system of a coded keypad to let pilots in

but we also now know that we have a system inside the cockpit where a pilot can override that pad. are we going to have to now have somebody one other person on that plane, a member of the flight crew who has a code that supersedes that to allow them to get in? >> boy, i don't know. you know clearly the main threat continues to be from terrorism, from an al qaeda type of threat to an aircraft. and we know that they are still intent on bringing down an aircraft. and these incidents are rare although we have had several over the last few years of pilots who have had a psychotic episode, and they came out of the plane and then broke down. you may recall, and were banging on the door to get back in and the pilot refused. other incidents in which pilots have in fact flown the plane into the ground. it happened with egypt air. but these are air incidents in the grand scheme of things. i don't know how you guard against the one pilot out there in a universe of pilots that are all doing their jobs and doing

them well. >> exactly. tom and greg, thank you so much. >> yeah. just incredibly disturbing developments that we're going through. and if you're just tuning in right now, we now have learned from french authorities, the prosecutor in marseilles that it appears this co-pilot whose name is andreas lubitz intentionally brought down that germanwings plane on tuesday. 150 people including the co-pilot were killed. we're hearing harrowing details from the cockpit voice recorder. >> shortly after the plane reached 38,000 feet the pilot got up for a natural break, perhaps to use the restroom. the co-pilot then locked the door overrode the security pad system so that pilot could not get back in. and despite gentle banging and then more violent banging trying to open that door the co-pilot said nothing until that plane flew into the mountain at 6,000 feet. >> i think one of the most harrowing details we learned this morning that in those file moment final moments you do hear screams of passengers.

>> let us get right to a time now 8:11. we do have temperatures in the 80s all across the board for today with some isolated 90s expected as well. 90 degrees is the high for today in the tri-valley. expecting to break all kinds of temperature records. as we head throughout the next couple days the warm temps will cool off. record heat all the way to very comfortable conditions by tomorrow, in fact. 78 degrees for friday. 77 on saturday. 82 for sunday down to 80 degree degrees by monday in the south bay. and to the your latest weather, grandpa bode, grandma said you used to be out of control. really... i guess i did take some risks. anncr: bode, bode miller!!! trained a little bit differently. a little too honest sometimes. the media is useless. you were out of control. but not always.

>> reporter: performing for the first time since zane malik announced his departure, he can be seen wiping tears. the pop phenomenon one direction announced one of its members is going in a new direction. zane pictured here hours after breaking the news told the band's nearly 37 million followers on facebook i have to do what feels right in my heart. i want to be a normal 22-year-old who is able relax and have private time out of the spotlight. fans today have social media. with more than 121 million follower zane's departure may be hitting closer to home. it's a much more personal connection than it used to be. social media has fuelled tear rise to fame and it makes this particular departure that much more personal. >> reporter: simon cowell the band's mentor thankss zane saying he is immensely proud of the 22-year-old and truly sorry

to see him leave. rest assured, this isn't the end, they say they are hugely excited about the future of the band. for now, their future is as a foursome something we got a glimpse of first hand when zane was an unexpected no show in november as the boys put on that like concert for "today" in orlando promoting the new release of that new album appropriately called four. >> so let's start with the obvious, where is zane? >> we only found out this morning that he couldn't go. we are sad, he is as well, he can't be here. >> reporter: it is a sentiment one band's direction share, as for the success with one less member we will have to wait for that story to play out. >> savannah hold back your tears. the tour will continue that's for sure for one direction t. band's next stop is saturday south africa. >> just four? >> that's right. >> okay. >> so far four. >> all right. thank you. >> are you okay with that in.

>> i am. >> okay. let's send it over to matt and jeremy piven. >> thank you so much this man won a golden globe as the hot headed ari gould on entourage. he stars as an american tycoon behind one of london's finest department stores in the pbs masterpiece series "mr. selfridge." take a look. >> how was your trip to dublin in. >> take the selfridge lane? >> that's the idea. >> and victory over aviation now? >> what? where'd you get that information from? >> they say you are planning to buy the land for an air drone, mr. selfridge. >> pure speculation, although aviation is the future. i'll say that. >> what's happening, jeremy. welcome back. >> good to see you. >> when you got down with "entourage" three yafl years ago, did you say to yourself i'm doing something completely opposite from ari gould?

>> absolutely. much to my surprise "mr. selfridge" landed on my lap. they to the i was the guy. after hearing his story, i pretended like i needed a minute to figure it out t. reality was i couldn't get there fast enough. >> why? first of all, i they lot of people if they haven't seen the show on masterpiece, don't know who he was. who is he? >> he's a guy from the mid-west who essentially invented the department store went over to england before shopping existed, created the culture and here we are 100 years later, it was voted the best store in the world. he was brilliant from 9:00 to 5:00 and an absolute disaster at night. >> as a lot of people. >> kind of like you, matt. >> thank you very much. spoken like a true friend. a bit of p.t. barnam in this guy? he was a bit of a showman? >> yeah he loved p.t. barnam. he loved putting on a show. he was the first man-made celebrity in pop culture,

really. he believed heavily in advertising. he was there every morning at 9:00. >> as often the case with masterpiece shows, there is a lot more than just what's happening in the linen department here the show is a period piece. it takes place in the 1,800s. we learn mr. suffrages wife is sick and it has been picked up for a fourth season? >> yes, indeed d. love of his life that he finally gets back and realizes what means the most to him in this life which is love and family and as soon as he gets that she tells him that she's dying. so it's an incredibly tranlic story and a cautionary tale. season three opposite up on the funeral and a wedding and we hit the ground running. >> let's make the pivot now, okay. because you have said about ari gould, which by the way, we are

all getting ready for "entourage," the movie. >> yes. >> you said playing ari gould was exhausting were you eager to jump back into the role or did you have to be convinced? >> i did not have to be convinced in anyway shape or form. i was excited, after being in england and playing opposite the best actors of the world. >> you wanted to get back to guys at "entourage"? . >> ah. >> two can play this game. >> yes, indeed listen i threw you a slow pitch. i appreciate you swung at i. well done sir, well done! i fixed that i could raise my game and that's why i went over there and it's like anything else you know when you play ten necessary with someone that's better than you, your game is raised. and i figured i had something more to contribute to playing ari gould and that's what i'm hearing. >> was it easy to step back into those designer shoes? >> you know what it's funny. it was and at the same time i mean being with the cast and we hit the ground running and that

was all very very smooth but it's fascinating because ari exists as a human being on his lowest level and yet it's fascinating to watch. because all of us operating at our lower level are reactive and crazy and overly emotionally invested. that's the space that ari lives in. yet, people love to watch it. i guess people love to watch pen behaveing badly. >> you are nothing like him. i love what you said in an interview, people often come up on the street and they meet you as jeremy piven. you are disappointed they are not more like ari gould. >> they are disappointed. everyone is disappointed. i will continue to disappoint them. it's the great pleasure of my life. >> the movie is rated "r." does it earn the "r" rating? >> very much so. to the point we were filming, doug allen the creator went this is not a porno, what in god's name is happening? we need to bring this down a

bit. i guess you go as far as you possibly can, push the envelope and then bring it back. that's kind of what we did. i showed a rough cut to a friend who had never seen the series and they love idt. it's for people who are fans of the show and people who have never seen it. >> i would say wait until their 17 18 possibly. >> good as vice. appreciate it. >> thank you, man. i appreciate it. >> always a pleasure. he will be back in our next hour and the new season of "mr. sufrage" premiers the sunday on masterpiece on pbs. savannah. >> thank you. i am in the kitchen. we are making something delicious. a little middle eastern spin on chicken, right? >> yeah. we are making a sort of healthy good for you for your brain dip that will go over this chicken. >> i love it brain food woke fight wonder 35 m

. a very good thursday morning to you. it's 8:26. i'm laura garcia-cannon. a department in mourning. the memorial is growing near the san jose police headquarters for officer michael johnson, the department's first officer to be shot and killed in 14 years. officers will meet with city leaders to discuss funeral plans and a prayer vigil is scheduled for tomorrow night at the courtyard at san jose city hall. johnson died tuesday in a gun battle with an armed man who was drunk and despondent. they later found the man dead in his home. let's take a look at the morning commute. >> very slow still through livermore. we have a lighter volume over all for the tri-valley. looking good except for west approaching airway boulevard

where a crash, one car spun out, took out three, possibly four others. they're having a tough time getting enough tow trucks out there. now, the rest of the tri-valley moves smoothly. the south bay northbound routes continue to slower drive, typical for this time for san jose and the rest of silicon valley up to cupertino. south 85 a little slow. north of the san mateo bridge, the peninsula and east bay looking good but we'll show you extra slowing past the coliseum. a stall heading toward that area. >> thank you very much. another local news update in a half hour. we'll see you then.

♪ >> it is 8:30 on thursday morning. it's the 26th day of march, 2015. this morning we're following stunning developments in that german wings jet crash in the french alps. >> stunning and disturbing. investigators have identify the co-pilot at the controls of the time at the crash. he appears to have deliberately crashed that plane. we're going to get to tom costello once again. what are you learning this morning?

>> the co-pilot is 28-year-old andreas lubitz. he had 630 hours as a pilot. when the captain of the plane got out of the cockpit, presumably to use the lavatory, the co-pilot then began this dissent that they say on the cockpit voice recorder they can hear him breathing normally but he is not responding to radio calls and the captain began pounding on the door to get back into the cockpit but the co-pilot at the controls refused to either answer him or allow him in. he had locked the captain out of the cockpit as it began descending from 38,000 feet to 6,000 feet and slamming into the mountain. air traffic controllers were trying to warn the co-pilot of his dissent of the trajectory, he was headed straight for a mountain. he refused to answer. at the very end we're told by the french prosecutor that the cockpit voice recorder picked up screaming from presumably passengers who were realizing at that point what was going on. they saw the captain pounding on

the door to get into the cockpit and then they saw they were going lower and lower and lower. so was this a terrorist attack? the prosecutor says there is no known links to terrorism at this point. this appears to be a case of mass murder. back to you. >> it is that, ib deed. tom costello, we'll keep following it. thank you very much. >> we have to get the weather from al. >> let's look ahead to the weekend. starting with tomorrow, we'll have wet weather along the southeastern atlantic coast down into florida. snow showers through the plains. wet weather moving into the pacific northwest with the heat continuing in the southwest and we'll continue again on saturday. a little bit cooler in los angeles. rain in the pacific northwest. windy conditions through the plains. much chillier in the northeast. but the sunshine returns to southern florida and then on sunday we look for some snow in the u.p. of michigan. wet weather getting into the mid ohio river valleys. more rain continuing in the pacific northwest. the sunshine returning to texas 8:32. good thursday morning to you.

need to hear. i admitted that i knew nothing before i brought my daughter home. i quickly learned on the job. the joy of being a parent is immeasurable, the members of our community shared when the frustrations do get best of them. danielle admits that sometimes being a mom isn't fun. >> i'm so exhausted that words no longer make sense. i feel my sanity deteriorating. >> today a blogger assures us it is okay if there are tears when you can't swaddle your baby. know that practice makes perfect. >> parenting can be overwhelming but it is often better when you know the little secrets of others in the same boat. all right. so let's talk more about the good, bad and ugly of parenting. randy zuckerberg is host of dot complicated. we also have an anchor from washington, d.c. and jen, mother of five, author of "for the love." good morning you to. >> good morning. >> mother teresa.

>> i know. >> you're all impressive. you're all great moms. we're talking about the ugly truth. i'm so glad we are. let's not sugar-coat it. we got four ugly truths to go through. first one is my favorite, decline of personal hygiene. so this happens. right? you have a new baby. >> that's why you don't see moms in facebook photos joan moreanymore. it's true. >> does anyone want to reveal the record for not shourg? >> i showered today. yeah. >> i do get over my head and one point i was home with the littles and he said baby, i need to tell you something. it's been five days and you need to go get a shower. i'm like, you know what? you don't know my life. >> don't judge. >> you don't know me. >> what is funny, do you need to shower you? are reeking from every place that you can reek. you have dried milk all over the place. and my whole thing was my favorite thing was that squirt

bottle that they give you when you leave the hospital that you use in the restroom. your minutes are just limited. you have to squirt and go. >> you asked for a black napkin for black pants. i'm like it's a little poop. >> yeah. that happens. related to that is sometimes your body image isn't great. you let the whole sex thing, no way. >> yeah. that happens. >> not feeling very attractive, i guess. the big thing is that as i mentioned before, you know, you're leaking. the girls are leaking, right? you're stretched out. you're sagging here and there. you definitely don't feel attractive. that's hard for a lot of women to deal w the moment you realize what you've done this beautiful thing that you made, there is battle scars are absolutely worth i. what i found and it's taken two kids to get to that point is that basically the best thing is when my husband sees how i

mother, my children, i don't have to be perfect. i don't have to good. but when he sees how great i am towards them, he finds that sexy. >> let's talk about our next truth which is embrace the crazy. >> yes. >> now guys, don't you call us crazy. but we will call ourselves crazy. maybe there is a sort of okay i'm just doing the best i can thing. >> it's my husband. bless his heart. he is like i bought you ice cream. i'm like i'm not a dog, you don't buy me treats. what is wrong with me? i mean i definitely think it overtakes your brain and i think everyone just kind of needs to be a little nice to the new moms in their lives. >> yes. it doesn't last forever. there is a moment you are so emotional. >> that's right. it doesn't last forever. i remember my husband coming home at one point and i'm on the kitchen floor with a baby and toddler and a preschooler and all four of us are crying. and he's like i'm going to go back to work. >> it gets better. your brain come back. you'll wear pants with a button

again. you'll wear a normal bra again. it all comes back. it is a stage. it is hard. but it is also so quick. i always say that early childhood is like five minutes under water. that's how it felt to me. >> yeah. >> it does, indeed. >> i can remember literally every word to every madonna song but i can't even remember my own children's names. how does the brain work that way? >> it's crazy. we embrace it. we did a sur vie on minds today. we talked to 3,000 parents, 73% of them said being clueless was a very popular truth. and it's true. we're all clueless. anybody that is acting like they know what they're doing, angie, they're not letting on. >> the way i describe parenting, it's like you're performing daily at the improv. there is no one that is a professional. if you try to be a professional, you're setting yourself up for failure. i think it's funny that we teach our children how to color in between the lines only for them to get older and say color outside the lines.

the bottom line is sometimes we have to break our own rules. that's okay. nothing is going to go awry. >> we're out of time. our last two points, you'll never be alone again. it actually needs no explanation. thank you so much for joining us. >> very good stuff. all month long viewers have been sharing advice on our page. these are our top voted voices here on the screen. now we're going to reset the leader board. any of you can be up here next month. the new challenge for the month, what are some time saving hacks to make parenting less stressful and more fun? head over to our website and join in on the conversation. let's head back over to savannah. >> all right. thanks. coming up next, we're teaming up with target and we have your first look at the new collection.

a basketball player who could have used an assist after an embarrassing comment. coming up right now! from nbc news, this is today's take with al roker, natalie morales, willie geist and tamron hall, live from studio 1 da in rockefeller plaza. >> good morning. welcome to 1a.

i'm al and jenna bush. disturbing news about the german wings air crash. >> yes. investigators have released more information apparently what appears to have happened there. right now, the indications are that the co-pilot appears to have crashed that plane deliberately with one150 people on board including high school students and small children. let's go to nbc correspondent keir simmons, who is in france at the crash site with the latest of what we've learned. >> reporter: good morning. the ceo of lufthansa that owns the smaller airline this aircraft was flying under describes himself as speechless and says in his worst nightmare he couldn't imagine an a320 flying into the mountain range with the co-pilot at the controls apparently deliberately descending it into this

devastating crash. prior to the news conference with the ceo, we heard from the french prosecutor and he outlined exactly what they now believe happened. he said the co-pilot locked himself in the cookckpit and basically refused to open the door for the pilot banging on the door. what they have done is analyzed a black box they found which recorded the sounds they heard in the time while this aircraft was descending from 38,000 feet. what the french prosecutor has said is that there was an ordinary conversation between theco-pilot. as they reached altitude, the pilot gets out and goes we think perhaps to the restroom, closes the door. when he comes back, he is not able to get back in to the cockpit. he begins to bang on the door. the co-pilot will not let him

back in again. and it gets more and more frantic and there is no response from the co-pilot according to the french prosecutor. what you can hear on the tape is the co-pilot breathing so he is clearly still alive right up to the moment the plane hits the side of the mountain. in the final minutes we're told there are other sounds of passengers screaming as they realize what is going on, absolutely terrifying. the french prosecutor says we assume the co-pilot meant to destroy the plane and asked german authorities for information on his personality. what we know about him, he is 28, he is german. he had just over 600 thundershowers of-- hours of flying experience and just finished training and joined german wings, the airline,

germanwings and joined them straight from his training. the bigger irl group say they do have psychologyical training for pilots and co-pilots and careful who they choose. he couldn't understand how this happened. we choose our candidates very carefully, he says. he describes it as a tragic exceptional incident. he makes clear the reason why this happened is because of the security on the door in the cockpit. there is a code on the door that does enable the pilot outside of the cockpit to get back in, if for example his co-pilot is incapacitated or ill or something like that. in fact, though, any inside can stop that code from working, and that, they think, appears to be what the co-pilot did. the co-pilot then intentionally, deliberate

deliberately maneuvers the plane down towards the mountains. it is effectively a suicide by the co-pilot. and the murder of 149 passengers and crew who are on board this plane. you can only imagine what they were going through, what they were thinking about in the perhaps minutes they had, as it dawned on them what was occurring. we have been told authorities have ruled out terrorism, they do not believe that is why. then the question is left as to what the psychology callical background of this co-pilot was that led him to do this. it doesn't look as if it was something planned. if the pilot had gone up and gone to the restroom he wouldn't necessarily know that would happen. i guess he would suspect it might at some point. some questions they're asking is whether that is right, pilot or co-pilot can be left in the cockpit on their own like that, is that safe? another question is going to be

what exactly the background of the co-pilot that led him to do this. back to you. >> keir simmons, thank you so much. the french prosecutor also saying there's nothing to suggest this was a terror attack, but it certainly is terrifying. >> the part that makes me feel the most sick is like you said, the kids are on this plane. when my husband heard that, you know, this was an act that meant to be on purpose, he said, think about those parents, those high school parents waiting for their kids at the airport to come home from spain and how they feel now. when you hear about people that do these acts of evil, you have to think about those kids and their parents and the amazing loss they feel today. >> that's a horrible horrible situation. >> let's move on to something a little lighter. there is joseph, $7 million richer. >> all right! >> have you guys ever won a scratchoff lottery ticket?

>> i think a dollar once. >> i won two dollars. >> his father bought him a get well card after he had hernia surgery and scratchoff tickets to cheer him up. he scratched it off and he won 7 million bucks. >> wow! >> not just 5, $7 million. can you imagine counting the zeros and saying this can't be right. >> imagine being miraculously held? >> and imagine his wife he just married seven months ago? >> a very rich lady. >> obviously, he just had hernia surgery, he wasn't jumping up and down. i might risk it. >> i might risk it. >> he said he will continue to work and take his wife on a second honeymoon. >> and his dad. >> or as he calls him now, who? just kidding, kidding. >> i'm going to go buy myself a lottery ticket. >> no.

you have to buy one and give to it someone. >> call my dad. buy me a lottery ticket. >> instead of an ice bucket challenge, a lottery challenge. keep buying me tickets. >> i love this story. the past few days, wisconsin basketball player nigel hayes has been challenging the ncaa stenographers with difficult words at press conferences like anti-dis anti-disestablishment or catty wamp pass or anatamapia. yesterday, the press conference got started, nigel's picked up more than he wanted to. >> nigel, we want to know, is there anything you want to say to our stenographers just to tip things off? >> asiligy. >> gosh, she's beautiful. >> did you hear that? >> all right. so, we'll open it up to questions. questions.

>> i love this! >> that's pretty good. i think we have pictures of the sten stenographers. >> oh, my gosh. >> they are attractive. >> so embarrassing. >> al. >> during roker-thon, i heeded nature's call and gave new meaning to live streaming. i have in fact done that. >> that's the only time? >> to the best of my knowledge. >> i didn't quite do a frank -- >> i don't know what a frank -- >> okay. do you know what it is? >> no. is it something that's dirty? >> no. >> no! it's from the movie -- >> you never know with al. >> it's from the movie "naked gun." and an open mike. he has a mike on at the press conference, he goes to the bathroom and starts singing and at the urinal and finishes off with a few notes that did not

come from this mouth. >> i'll call you. >> what about you? any mike accidents? snoo>> thanks, no f.. >> lets check on the weather. lots to talk about. >> there is. seven tornadoes yesterday and more severe weather popping up right now. yesterday, one person died, three people injured clinically out of this. we look at memphis in cincinnati, skies clearing out of memphis. another line just coming in and wet weather making its way into nashville, showers, thunderstorms, much cooler tomorrow as the front moves through. the backside of this system, wisconsin, up of michigan, syracuse you will see rain and wet snow today, 1-3 inches by tomorrow possible. and we will probably have airline airport delays, washington, new york, on into parts of boston and atlanta even. we're looking at snow 1-3 inches

something and he came back to get back into the cockpit and it was locked. he knocked and followed the protocol punched in the code. he was locked out of that. >> you can hear that the pounding and people screaming. >> they did release the name of the co-pilot. his name is andreas lubitz. 28 years old. a german national. now that we know what happened more or less we want to know why. trying to get into the mind of someone like that why he flew that plane in. it's one of those things you think to yourself if your goal is to commit suicide, why are you taking 149 people with you? >> anger. so furious about something. the conversation before it all happened with the two pilots was quite gracious right? >> the guy didn't have tons of

flight time. 630 hours, compared to what is required in the u.s. almost double that. he started off on single engine planes and i think he's only been 100-hours plus on this type -- >> he was qualified. they are saying he was totally qualified to fly this plane. they do get a medical test once a year to make sure you're able. but not a psychological test. you can't really speculate. you can sort of have a hunch. but it was -- >> what's your gut tell you? >> i don't know. you think this guy seems like a lone wolf. when no one claimed responsibility it made you think it probably wasn't terrorism. it was probably someone doing something. you still want to know what's going on in this guy's head. >> if he wants to kill himself, it's his business. there's a picture of him in

front of the golden gate bridge. people were writing, why not just jump instead of taking 149 lives with you. nbc is going to continue covering that story. >> you know what story i want to continue covering? a happy one. you have some wonderful, wonderful, good news. >> we've been telling you about the little girl named devin stills little daughter leah. she's a 4-year-old girl diagnosed with cancer and she's been part of the "today" show family. she joined us. >> you've adopted her. part of your truly brave video. >> that's her. >> she's been in and out of hospitals. they found more cancer after this video was shot. and it was heartbreaking. she found out laflt week that early tests indicated she was getting better. today devin still her dad confirmed that all of the tests cam back clean. after 296 of dreaming about what it would feel like to hear doctors say that my daughter is in remissions i finally know

right in my heart. i want to be a normal 22-year-old able to relax and have private time out of the spotlight. >> you have to respect his choice. the truth is he's not going to be normal for a long time because there are too many people -- women and fans who adore him. he's going to be recognized wherever he goes. he maybe can be a normal 30-year-old. >> eight years? >> maybe. >> one direction said we're sad to see zayn go but we respect his decision and send him all of our love in the future. >> the beatles did just fine with four. maybe they don't replace. >> that could be it. you're right. >> you know what they'll do? they'll be very smart and they will say we're going to do a worldwide search for zayn replacement and they'll milk it and milk it until the cow is utterless. >> and people can vote. they'll make it a big, big deal. we have --

>> an issue. >> so yesterday on our program we showed you donna who is one of the people on our show whom we love. we poured coke on her hair because we read somewhere that if you put cooka a coca-cola in one's hair it gives your hair more texture. you rinse it out and blow it. look at donna's hair. then we found out that laura had washed out the coke. now this is donna doing her hair on her own. >> it's not that big of an issue because i still have my hair. but so yesterday i went home to my two roommates. i brought home two liters of coca-cola and said have at me. they poured it on me and it was sort of a fun activity but don't do it at home. >> the coca-cola challenge. do it for charity. >> the only difference it feels the same.
