alaska. three soldiers were killed. the incident coming in the wake of another deadly collision in february. stephanie gosk has the latest for us. hi, steph, good morning. >> reporter:hoda, good morning. yes, this happened overnight in a really isolated area, so information is still coming in. we do know that each helicopter was carrying two people. two soldiers died at the scene, another en route to the hospital, the fourth getting treatment for injuries still. killing three soldiers and injuring one near remote healy, alaska, more than 200 miles north of anchorage. soldiers based at fort wainwright were flying two ah-62 apache helicopters back from a training mission when this happens. this is an incredible loss for these soldiers' families, their fellow soldiers and the division. our hearts and prayers go out to their family, friends and loved ones. it comes weeks after several crashes involving u.s. army

helicopters. last month, nine soldiers were killed in kentucky when two army blackhawks crashed in a training exercise west of fort campbell. back in february a black hawk from the national guard killed two crew members. the head of the 11th airborne division also said in that statement, fort wainwright is one of the most tight-knit communities in the military. obviously this would hit hard for any unit. terrible news out of alaska. >> hard to see that. all right, stef. thank you so much. turning now to that wild weather from coast to coast with more on the way, the historic flooding along the mississippi river now being blamed for a train derailment. meanwhile, in the south, cleanup is under way after a string of storms and tornadoes there. al will have the very latest forecast as we head into the weekend in just a moment. first maggie vespa is in davenport, iowa, for us once again. maggie, good morning. >> reporter: hey, craig, good morning. up and down the mississippi it is a tale of widespread flooding.

farther north, weight is cresting after people have been begun evacuating. in davenport, the water is still rising, but the worst is days away. down south, it is a different tale with twisters causing serious damage. this morning severe weather wreaking havoc in multiple states. the swollen mississippi river is continuing to rise. in wisconsin, investigators are combing through the wreckage of this train derailment trying to determine if floodwaters caused several cars to spill off the tracks. that was near the river. people in la crosse, wisconsin, forced to flee flooded homes with river levels cresting there. a gas company cutting service to more than 100 homes. if the forecast is as bad as they think, how high would it go? >> this is 21.6, i believe, right here. >> reporter: down south, the story is tornadoes with at least seven reported twisters, six of them in florida

alone. one striking just outside tallahassee. this look from above shows the damage in one neighborhood. the severe weather snapping trees and stripping the roofs from home after home. >> looks like a tornado! >> reporter: this week's multiday stretch of relentless back-to-back thunderstorms unloading dangerous winds, hail and lightening, and dangerous storms will continue to pummel the southern plains to the west. 22 million facing yet another day of severe weather, but this morning, some good news in texas. two young brothers in fort worth recovering after getting hit by a lightning strike. >> i died last night and came back to life. >> reporter: across the country, millions still on high alert this morning as this severe spring weather marches on. we're just glad those two kids in texas are okay. back here along the mississippi, speaking to the historic nature

of these floods, in a rare a new usda report says all barge traffic in the upper part of the mississippi has ceased due to rising river levels as this slow-moving disaster continues to take shape. craig. >> all right, maggie vespa for us in iowa, maggie, thank you. >> let's get specifics on the storm, where they're headed over the weekend. al is joining us now. he's in upstate new york. hey, al. >> reporter: hey, guys. good morning. we will explain why we're here in a bit. but let's get to this severe weather we have going on right now, and it will be affecting a good chunk of the country. we've got one big slug of heavy rain and thunderstorms making its way through the mid-atlantic up into the northeast over the next 24 hours, but we've also got this next low pressure system developing over texas. rapid thunderstorm development over this afternoon. we have an enhanced risk from san antonio up to dallas. tornadoes possible. hail, damaging hail again. two inches in diameter or more from dallas all the way down to laredo. tomorrow early morning and nighttime storms firing up.

the heaviest rain in east central florida. in fact, we've got a risk of severe weather stretching from panama city into the midsection of florida. during the day on sunday, another system develops along the mid-atlantic coast. that's going to bring that heavy rain with increasing winds, strong thunderstorms, rainfall, we're looking at washington, d.c., heavy rain today, 1 to 3 inches. the new england coast has a flood threat anywhere from one to three, but locally could be upwards of five upwards of five inches of rain. guys? >> al, we'll come back to you in a moment. a major investigation into then president trump's effort to overturn the 2020 election. his former vice president, mike pence, testifying before the special counsel's grand jury yesterday, according to a source familiar with the matter.

pence's appearance coming after months of negotiations. here with more, nbc's legal correspondent laura jarett. >> good morning. >> former vice president pence at the courthouse from 9:00 in the morning until 4:30 in the afternoon, 7 1/2 hours. what does that tell you? >> he has a story to tell. and for months the special counsel has been trying to get at these conversations. this is really significant. this is the former vice president of the united states testifying in a criminal investigation into the former president's actions, and we know a lot of these communications, a lot of these interactions are only between pence and trump, and that's why the special councel needs these conversations leading up to the attack on the capitol. we know from our reporting the special counsel is really interested in trump's efforts to block the certification of the election because we know pence didn't go along with the scheme. they want to get at those conversations that only pence is privy to. >> you wonder what kind of questions he was being asked because publicly he said, maybe there was no crime committed, maybe trump got bad advice from an attorney. what would you ask him? >> why didn't you go along with

it? what did you think was wrong with it, and what did the president say in response when you told him it was not okay under the constitution? when you told him it was -- when you told him this whole thing was a hair brained scheme and it wouldn't work, what did he say in response? when you told him it wasn't okay, what did he say in response? they had conversations on the evening of january 5th, the night before the attack on the capitol. they're having a conversation on january 6th. they will want to know all the details about that. >> do you expect this will lead to another indictment from president trump? >> i think it is too early today. this is a complicated one. remember, this is separate from the issue of withholding classified information. this is very complicated. we could be a ways off here, but this is a critical piece of the puzzle. again, this is the highest level senior aide we've ever seen testify in front of the grand jury. >> laura jarrett, thank you. >> thank you, laura. by the way, former president trump did weigh in on mr. pence's testimony as he returned to the campaign trail in new hampshire.

the 2024 race now quickly taking shape. abc's chief white house correspondent kristen welker has the latest. >> reporter: good morning to you. president biden has an eye on his election campaign. tonight we will attend a fund-raiser hosted by the dnc. he and president trump are gearing up for a rematch targeting each other's records, and it is clear mr. trump's legal challenges are looming. as 204 ramps up, former president trump campaigning in new hampshire, making his first public comments about his former vice president mike pence's historic testimony before a grand jury investigating mr. trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election and the january 6th attacks speaking exclusively with nbc's john allen. >> mr. president, what do you think of mike pence testifying today? >> i don't know what he said, but i have a lot of confidence in him. >> reporter: mr. trump also repurposing a familiar line of

attack from 2016. >> i will be retiring the name crooked from hillary clinton so that we can use the name for joe biden because he'll be known from now on as crooked joe biden. >> reporter: a dnc spokesperson brushing off the attack saying donald trump and his family used his presidency to rake in billions, with a "b," from shady deals with foreign countries like china and saudi arabia. the former president also taking aim at mr. biden's economic record. >> we handed joe biden the fastest economic recovery ever recorded. he took that booming economy and he promptly blew it to shreds. >> reporter: the dnc calls mr. trump's stewardship of the economy an abject disaster, noting more than 12 million jobs have been created under the biden administration. president biden, alongside the first lady, addressed supporters, evoking mr. trump without mentioning his name. >> this is about our freedoms. maga republicans are trying to

take us backwards, but together we're not going to let them do that. >> reporter: it comes as the gop field continues to take shape. mr. trump's leading potential rival, florida governor ron desantis, is trying to bolster his foreign policy credentials visiting four key u.s. allies as part of an international trade mission. now, governor desantis is also firing back at disney after the company filed suit against him alleging he orchestrated a campaign of government retaliation by getting rid of disney's deal with florida, essentially allowing it to govern itself. he said disney's suit has no merit. it all comes as desantis is inching closer to launching his own presidential bid. guys, back to you. >> all right. kristen welker at the white house, thank you. lots more to get to on this friday morning, including the twists and turns of the nfl draft. it got under way in kansas city last night, and it was an evening filled with drama, last-minute deals, a lot of emotions from both players and fans.

nbc's kaylee hartung was right there in the thick of it to experience all of it. kaylee, good morning to you. >> reporter: hey, craig. how cool is it to see dreams realized in realtime? it was such an exciting night and the first round of the nfl draft is always known for big surprises and flashy suits, and this year delivered. >> and there is an incredible -- >> reporter: the nfl kicking off its eagerly anticipated draft in style right here. >> this is leo. >> i want to be a legend. >> reporter: and getting down to business. >> the carolina panthers select bryce young, quarterback, alabama. >> reporter: as expected, heisman trophy winner bryce young getting the first call of the night, rocking a pink dior suit and a huge smile on his face. >> i will try to live in the moment. i can't wait to get to work tomorrow and start building off that. >> reporter: young, an only child, thanking his parents for their unwavering support.

>> i wouldn't want to be here with anyone else. >> reporter: then a power move. >> the first big mystery of the 2023 draft is about to be solved. >> reporter: immediately after snagging their own qb second overall. >> the houston texans select cj stroud. >> reporter: the texans trading up to make back-to-back picks nabbing defensive star will anderson. >> this is one of the most remarkable beginnings of an nfl draft. >> when your mom hugged you in that green room -- >> reporter: anderson showing us makeup left behind on his jacket from his proud mom. >> that lady is so special. she puts the world on her back for all her kids. to mom, you're good. i got you. >> reporter: life-changing moments for so many families including anthony richardson as the colts picked him fourth overall. >> i cried four different times. finally settled and hit me i'm an nfl quarterback now. >> reporter: with the sixth

pick, arizona tapping paris johnson. the recipient of the 2022 armed forces merit award. his tireless work serving disabled veterans and athletes sets him apart. >> what i do off the field is just as great. i put in a lot of work as i do on the field. >> reporter: hard work and dedication for 31 young men as they celebrate a new life and beginning in the nfl. how does the dream compare to the reality? >> it is more sweet than you would think. i think the process is special, but this is icing on the cake. >> reporter: so three quarterbacks were taken in the top four picks of the draft which leads to an exciting start for the night but but it left will levis in a difficult position. the kentucky quarterback fell all the way down the draft board out of the first round. it was a really emotional night for him and his family, but you have to imagine he could take some inspiration from lamar jackson's story. go back to 2018, jackson also

fell down that draft pick and was the last pick of the first round but just yesterday hours before the draft kicked off, he became the highest paid player in the nfl with a historic contract extension, five years and $260 million, guys. >> you mentioned aaron rodgers as well wasn't drafted as high. things turned out well for aaron as well. >> i love watching the players. i love watching the moms. man, that is so cool if that's your kid. >> the moms and the dads that have seen those little boys play pop warner. all the dreams coming true. by the way, carolina panthers now are instant contenders. we will have much more on the draft later including a really remarkable story about this west point cadet who could make history when his name is called as well. >> all right. right now, though, let's get to mr. roker in his forecast. if you are wondering where al is, he's at his alma mater. sunni oswego. >> hey, guys.

how are you doing? yeah, we're at suny oswego. i teach a broadcast performance class here, and i came up to teach the final class in person with the kids, so having a great time. we'll see some of them a little bit later, but let's show you what we've got as far as your weather is concerned for today. we are looking at heavy rain making its way into the northeast later on. severe storms developing in texas. we're looking at rain all the way up into the western plains and record highs out west all the way stretching with beautiful sunshine from seattle down to san diego. we will get to y your local l forecastst coming upup in the n 30 seconds. l forerecast into tht in the n next 30 sececonds.

four other students dead bethany funke was one of the survivors and now she' agreeing to be interviewed by the defense in the murder case attorneys for the suspect, bryan kohberger, issuing a subpoena for funke to sel claiming she has exculpatory information that might help him. an investigator for the defense writing, it is unique to her experiences and cannot be provided by another witness. funke's attorney fought back filing a moment to quash the subpoena writing, even i funke possesses exculpatory evidence, which remains unknown, there is no place or reason to present it at a preliminary hearing. but new cour documents show she's now agreed to an interview with the idaho-based defense counsel. she will testify in reno, nevada, where she's from instead of taking the stand in the idaho court where the preliminary hearing is set to begin in late june ahead of the hearing, the prosecution expanding its team

as they look to bolster their case against kohberger two deputies from the idaho attorney general's offic have been appointed to assist in the prosecution. >> brian, did you do it? >> reporter: kohberger was arrested in late december charged with the murders of ethan chapin, xana kernodle, kaylee goncalves and madison mogen. according to charging documents, their other surviving roommate dylan mortensen saw a male figure with bushy eyebrows, a mask and black clothing in the home that night. funke's account of that night is not included in those documents. prosecutors allege dna evidence, video surveillance and cell phone records led them to kohberger, who was pursuing a ph.d. at nearby washington state university he has yet to enter a plea, but has said through a former attorney he believes he will be exonerated >> so, erin, what are attorneys thinking bethany's testimony might reveal. >> reporter: hoda, while we have a better understanding of what

dylan experienced that night there are so many unknowns about bethany. local police have said on the night of the murder, she was in her room on the first floor, but it's unclear if she woke u when the killer was inside it's also unclear when she realized her roommates were dead, and we don't know what happened in the hours between the time of the murders and the 911 call so clearly the defense wants to know more about what she potentially heard and saw. hoda >> a lot of unanswered questions there. erin mclaughlin. erin, thank you. all right. coming up, an important lesson on water safety. three olympic gold medallist joining us live with the tips and advice everyone needs to know with summer on the way. first though, jerry springer's legacy in the spotlight as tributes pour in for the iconic talk show host we will take a closer look on his impact on daytime tv and maury povich will join us right after this

7:38 now remembering jerry springer. >> he passed away at his home in chicago yesterday. his career, wide ranging including his popular talk show that really changed th landscape of daytime tv. >> as a former mayor of cincinnati and local news anchor, it was the departure that came to define him. we'll talk about that with maury povich in a moment but first a closer lock at springer's life and legacy. [ crowd chanting, "jerry" >> reporter: on television, jerry springer called himself a ringmaster his nameshake show that ran for nearly three decades, an all-out circus that always brought the shock factor. outrageous, provocative. >> i know the guy she's cheating on you with. >> who >> it's me, bro. >> reporter: and ratings gold. springer describing the appeal during its peak on "today." >> it's the craziest show on television i don't pretend it's anything but that, but it's entertaining.

people obviously like it we're seeing people that we're not used to seeing on television before. >> reporter: what began as an ordinary talk show in 1991 soon became must-see tv. >> let's try and do it without hitting each other, okay >> reporter: those infamous brawls and bizarre confrontations captivating audiences. by the late '90s, "the jerry springer show" became one of america's biggest guilty pleasures and even for a stretch surpassing oprah in viewers. but not everyone was a fan. >> if people don't like it, and there are many people who don't, that's why god gave us remote control. turn the station. >> reporter: over the years, springer repeatedly defended his controversial show against critics that called it low class and low brow. >> in all of life, we're not better than these people we just dress better. >> reporter: springer first made a name for himself in politics he was elected to the cincinnati city council and later became mayor.

in 1977 he did that. after an unsuccessful run for ohio governor, he started out in broadcasting turning out as a local reporter, bu eventually to the anchor desk. but it was his pioneering talk show that launched springer into pop culture history. >> no one is watching because of me they're watching because the stories are crazy, and the people are outrageous. >> reporter: through 27 seasons of his own hit show and hosting gigs on dozens of others, jerry became synonymous with on-screen drama. but those who knew him best say he was always kind and simply loved people. >> he was probably the most authentic person that i have ever worked with in this business. >> reporter: this morning as tributes pour in, so many no remembering the tv titan and his signature final thoughts on every show. >> until next time, take care of yourself and each other. springer passed away after battling pancreatic cancer. he was 79 years old.

springer's family says his loss hurts immensely bu memories of his intellect, heart and humor move on. >> let's talk about the memories of jerry springer with another daytime tv legend, maury povich you guys launched at the same time, back in the early '90s you and jerry. i feel like we watched these clips, and we watched people throwing down and having fights and all that stuff, but there was a man behind this, a person you know describe who that person was off camera >> well, first of all, i mean, jerry was -- he was a sweetheart, and we knew each other from the beginning of our talk shows we both started in 1991. for many, many years, we were owned by the same company, your company, nbc we did our shows in the same studio up in connecticut for many, many years, and we would see each other a lot i'm not saying that we were great friends away from the business, but i think we

understood each other. he always said the difference between my show and your show is that you are the real deal, and i'm the deal i said, no, jerry, you are your own deal so that's the way we had it, and we used to laugh about it. i mean, he was very honest about his show he -- i used to say, i said, jerry, i mean, your show is like wrestling. he says, yeah, it's like wwe and, so, he was there. i mean, he never pretended to be anything else but what he was. >> what was the key? i mean, both of your shows have also been criticized for the more sensational topics. fights on jerry and paternity and lie detector tests on yours yet the shows ran for decades. what was the key to success for all those years in your opinion? >> i think a lot of people used to watch the shows and still do. i mean, both of our shows are still in repeats my show has been on now for the entire season, and i'm getting

as good ratings now that i did with the original shows. so, i mean, people still have an interest, and i think the reason is a lot of people used to watch because there but for the grace of god go i. i mean, it's not my life, thank god. let's see what other peoples' lives are like and then a lot of people watch, i think, because they went through the same things. i mean, they had problems in terms of families, and they wanted to see how it played out on tv. >> maury, you know, jerry really did sort of start this different era of daytime talk, if you will. you and him both back in the early '90s what do you think jerry's legacy, his lasting impact will be on the genre and perhaps pop culture as well? >> well, i think, you know, one thing that jerry did, i mean, everybody had a feeling about jerry. i mean, there was an opera, you know, after jerry springer i mean, "jerry springer, the

opera. i mean, he penetrated a lot in our culture. you have to understand in the 1990s, it was the golden age of daytime talk shows there were, like, ten of us. we had phil done shoe, we had oprah. we had jenny jones we had had sally jessy raphael and geraldo rivera, then the jerry and i came along i mean, it was a -- ten shows in the middle of the day. it was a big time for daytime talk. >> well, maury povich, thank you. our love to your beautiful bride, connie chung. tell her hi for us. >> thanks. >> we love her it's good to see you all. >> right good to see you all. she's writing her mémoirs. she's under deadline. >> tell her to come here tell her to bring it here. we'll be happy to host her >> okay. >> thanks, maury. >> thank you good to see you all. >> you too >> until he started reflected, i had forgotten about the '90s

and there were folks like ricki lake and montel williams >> put it in perspective and the landscape now. >> and there was room for all of them, which made that fascinating. let us head back up to soviet union -- suny osweg as he changed his outfit that's smart. >> that's right. the great thing about jerry springer was his sense of humor. he appreciated a good laugh and he could laugh at himself as well but he never laughed at the people he had on his show. he respected them. so just a terrific guy let's take a quick look and show you what we've got as far as the country's weather. we are looking at a lot of rain making its way into the midwest sunshine in northern new england. look at record highs out west. that's what's going on around thth good morning. i'm meteorologist kari hall. it's going to be a cool day for san francisco, we're seeing all the fog over the city and it's also helping to provide a little bit of some milder weather up and down the peninsula. but it will be another hot day

that's a savings of $240 a year. the savivings you wawant. on thehe network w worth braggg ababout. veririzon welcome back beloved actor patrick swayze passed away from pancreatic cancer nearly 14 years ago, and his wife, lisa niemi swayze, has carried on his fight against the disease ever since we'll talk with her in just a moment but first a look at lisa and patrick's love story patrick swayze danced his way to hollywood stardom in 1987's "dirty dancing." >> nobody puts baby in the corner >> reporter: the roles came pouring in, and patrick could do it all starring in "road house," he was the macho man. >> it's my way or the highway. >> reporter: and in "ghost," the sensitive love interest, landing him the title of "people's" sexiest man alive in

1991 off screen, patrick had eyes for one woman, lisa niemi swayze the two met at his mother's dance studio when lisa was just 15 years old. they married in 1975 and spent the next 34 years together living on their ranch in california. >> are you a cowgirl >> they even starred in films together, partners both in dance and in life. >> when you helped me dance, i remembered myself. >> until a devastating diagnosis broke their world. patrick had stage 4 pancreatic cancer, the deadliest of all cancers. 22 months later, patrick passed away at just 57 years old. >> tributes are pouring in tonight for the actor patrick swayze. >> now, 13 years later, lisa is continuing patrick's fight by joining forces with the pancreatic cancer action network in their big event, purple stride, to raise money for research dedicated to fighting the deadly disease, a chance for patrick's

legacy to continue to lift others up. i'm so happy to have lisa with me first time meeting you. it's nice to see you. >> so good to be here. >> what a beautiful love story that's all i could think of when watching that. you were delighted in him saying are you a cowgirl? tell me a little bit about your love story. >> oh, my gosh well, you know, we had suc an unlikely start because we were both very cautious because he had this reputation of being a casanova they thought i was this quiet bad girl our first contact was he reached over and pinched me on the butt and said, hey, cutie i'm like, oh, brother, but i tell you what, needless to say we went out with each other anyway, despite each other's reputations and got to know each other. as our reputations were, i think it's because we were both a little different from everybody else we kind of understood that about each other, and we ended up

falling in love. >> i love how you describe him as wanting to be a superhero, not just your superhero, but everybody's, to come in and be a helper and save the day, that was who he was >> oh, absolutely. he was the hero. i tell you what, the man could do anything. he was so talented it's like jumping out of planes, riding horses, piloting an aircraft. he was just so talented. of course, his acting, his incredible career. how many actors have had that many iconic movies like "dirty dancing," "ghost," "point break," "road house." >> do you watch these movies when they come on these days >> here and there. it kind of catches me unaware. i always have my favorite parts. i always cry in the same three " places in "ghost." i always love him falling out of the airplane in "point break" going adios, amigo, because

that's in. that's so quintessential patrick. he and tom cruise shared a lot in common in that regard they loved to do their own stunts. >> well, you call him a fighter. i remember when he was at the stand-up for cancer event, and he stood up there and everyone saw him, and he was going to fight this like he fought for everything in his life. >> yeah. >> did you think back then that this is something that he was going to be able to beat what were your feelings about it then >> we called ourselves realistic optimists because he knew about pancreatic cancer a lot more than me when he was first diagnosed. and when he heard it, he turned to me and said, i'm a dead man but you know what? there is always hope for everybody, and there is -- there are people who always break through, and it's, like, why not you? so we held out the best hope we will fight the best fight we

knew how to do, and maybe he would be the one to make it through. he survived 22 months. i tell you what, it was a tough fight. talk about a hero. he was a hero and just fought heroically, and every moment that he was on this planet for those 22 months, well, of course before then, but for the 22 months was worth every bit of fight. >> we just reported today that jerry springer died of pancreatic cancer, and i was just thinking about your fight. this is a fight -- you'r taking his legacy. tell us about what you are doing with it. >> oh, gosh. you know, i always say that cancer took him, took patrick, but it didn't beat him, and you mentioned the stand up to cancer, and my condolences to jerry springer's family. it's just a dreadful disease to have to lose a loved one to, but him, alex trebek,

michael landon, pavarotti, they fought to shine a light on this, a terribly needed light on this dreadful disease. >> what is your organization >> pancreatic cancer action network, pan-can. >> so people want to know more about it, they can go online. >> you can find out everything you want to know. >> and i'm happy to say that you are happily married. >> yes. >> you have a beautiful new life so love is possible a second time around. >> oh. you know, i have a dear widow friend, and, you know, i fell in love with albert, and i said, you know, it's really weir because it doesn't conflict with the love that i still have for patrick. just because somebody's gone doesn't mean you fall out of love and my wise friend said, that's because love comes from the same well i thought it was a really wonderful thing to say, and, you know, albert and i both felt like we had a lot of love still left to give and felt very fortunate we found somebody to

give it to >> what a beautiful, hopeful, wonderful love story again i'm so happy that you are here don't forget about pan-can you can learn more about that and purple stride. it is all on our website we got you covered, today.com. all right. let's send it over to mr. roker in oswego. hey, al. >> reporter: hey, guys, good morning. we got all of our students here.

television in the '50s and '60s, which, as you could imagine, was shocking loosely based on a real event. oscar got a four-hour pass from a mental health facility to appear on a game show. but for the play purposes, w switched it to "the tonight show." everybody knows "the tonight show" wane as frequent guest with jack paar when he hosted. so the whole play is about what happens backstage, and it culminates into this unforgettable appearance on "the tonight show." it's pretty cool, and then the "good night, oscar," the title came from jack paa would sign off every night saying "good night, oscar. wherever you are." >> magnificent. >> working on it for 15, 20 years. >> the concert pianist came easy to you. >> yeah. i studied piano since i was five years old. i thought i was going to be a concert pianist and conductor and compose film music and then i fell in love with acting as well

suburbs, as i did. he grew up as an athlete a gay athlete. i grew up in the arts. you know, news flash we talked about it what it would have been like had we known each other back then. so we heightened that idea by having the first -- the number one basketball star in georgia come out as gay in high school and, so, it is available everywhere where books aren't banned may 30th, and you can pre-order it now it is fantastic. it is a really kind of -- you know, teenage years are your formidable years it is so important to feel accepted and loved more than any time in your life. so we're really, really proud of it, and it kind of tackles the one thing left for the lgbtq issues, which is sports, lgbtq things in sports. >> and, by the way, just 25 years, "will & grace," i cannot believe it's been 25 years. >> you look great, sean. thank you, hoda. that's so crazy. >> that was my fault. >> that was unbelievable, thank

♪ welcome back may arriving on monday, and that marks the start of swim season and national water safety month.

according to the cdc and the u.s. swimming foundation, drowning is the number one cause of accidental death in young children, but swim lessons can reduce that risk by 88%. so we brought not one, not two, but three gold medalists to studio 1a this morning to answer some questions and also to debunk some myths, as well nbc sports analyst rowdy gaines, also olympic swimmers missy franklin and colin jones always good to have olympic gold medalists in the studio, but especially when they'r talking about something so important. good to have all of you. >> thank you >> you have been preaching this sermon for a long time now for folks not familiar with step into swim, what is it? what's the chief aim of the organization >> well, it's the water safety initiative, craig. the pool and hot tub alliance. our mission is really simple we want to try to save lives and create more swimmers through swim lessons, so we provide these grants to lesson providers around the country, specifically targeting those communities that

could not afford them. i mean, we hit -- we affected 23,000 kids last year. we're going to do a lot more this year. >> missy, for folks that might be watching or listening and they will say, you know, i don't have a pool, and we don't really go around water that often why are swim lessons so important? >> even if you don't have direct access to water right now, water is still going to be a part of your child's life forever, and we believe that the earlier you can get them in, the better. so even if you don't have a pool in your backyard, you are not going every day, the earlier you can get them in the water, get them used to it, get them more comfortable, we think that's so important >> we've talked about this before black kids, especially, five times more likely to drown than their white peers. you have been working for a number of years to change that what are you doing tell us about that. >> the three of us have been ambassadors, like you said, for a very long time around this 64% of black americans don't know how to swim

56% of latinos don't know how to swim, and 38% of caucasians don't know how to swim this is a problem all over the u.s. with organizations like step into swim, speedos swim united, usa swimming is behind us, we are doing this for so long, we're just trying to get the message out there. learn how to swim. and try to drop these drowning rates. >> missy, we will start with you. we will start with myth one. floaties, good for kids, especially when they're just learning to swim. is that not true >> so here's the thing we're not here to shame or tell parents they're doing anything wrong. i think the big thing for all of us when it comes to floaties is what they do is they giv your child a false sense of security in the water. so if they're wearing floaties, they think they're safe in the water. the next time they see a body of running towards it thinking they are safe if they have not had lessons if they do not have a water watcher there with them, we really don't want anything harmful to happen. if you have to use floaties, do what you need to do. but just know as a parent what

that's doing for your child and for you as well to know they're not safe just because they have a flotation device. >> faust sense of security plus, those things can pop or fall off >> exactly >> myth number two, colin, it is obvious when someone is drowning it is apparent when they're in the pool. >> oh, biggest myth. i had humble beginnings at a water park when my parents were there, lifeguards were there and i was still able to go underwater most of the time you see in theaters, help, oh some will be struggling but that's not what happened i went underwater and did not know how to get up and out and had to be resuscitated s that is a big myth i want people to understand there is no -- you have to get swim lessons, formal swim lessons. that's the only answer to this. >> this water watcher, what is that >> honestly i say anyone anyone that is around th pool can be a water watcher. >> an adult. >> an adult is a water watcher you don't want to have a lifeguard watching 500 kids. >> that is even with swim lessons. even if your child has been in s

swim lessons and is competent in swimming, if you are the adult you are the guardian you need to be paying attention at all times when your children are in the water. >> last myth here, number three. swimming is like riding a bike once you learn you're set for life you don't need lessons anymore >> at that early age, they don't have the acumen yet to be able to learn how to ride that bicycle. when you teach your kids to ride at 5 years old, maybe as they age, but that 2 and 3-year-old need the refresher courses again, we can talk about swi lessons all we want. but the main point is i'm begging parents, please do not take your eyes off your child when they're in or around water. >> what is the ideal age to start swim lessons what do you think? >> i had my son in 6 months. >> i had my daughter kaitlin at 6 months >> as soon as they can walk, get them lessons thank you for all the work you are doing. have a great weekend mr. daley, i smell food. >> ah, some good stuff great information there, guys. thanks so much the food you smell, craig,
