signs, you can open the main door of the train you came inned on follow the instructions. >> if the engineer is too chaotic, you can open it yourself. can i try? >> yes. >> lift pull open the ring push this red handle down and the door is released? >> you can see it pops the door open an inch. i can open it the rest of the way. by the way, this is a pretty big drop here so you want to be careful getting out. but the danger isn't over yet off the train, in many spots of the country, there are train tracks next to your train with oncoming traffic, you want to look both ways before you go anywhere so you don't get hit by another train, in the case of metro north and many spots in the country, there is an electrified third rail that can kill you instantly. so you are not out of the danger zone yet. once you look both ways and only then can you walk away to safety. >> here's tip no. 3, in every car there is an emergency exit window you will pull the

rubber discard it. grab the handle pull it toward you, then you can go out the window. remember it is still a 7 to 8-foot drop to the ground. >> in the metro, there was an explosion and fire t. front car filling up the smoke. how do you get out alive when you can't even see? today we are filling the train with same lated smoke to show you. >> it's going to be chaotic. you want to get on the floor, this is where you can breathe. you want to follow the striping on the floor. we have glow in the dark zrooip striping. it will take you to the door the end of the car where your exit is. >> if you commit these to memory it's the best way today safe. >> that's right. >> i hope that's an opener. i ride trains all the time. here's a tip much like in the airplane as soon as you sit down in the evening, count the amount of seats to the nearest emergency exit. we wouldn't think to do that on a train. so here's one two, three and here's the mortgages exit right

here. so that way if it is smokey and you can't see, you know exactly where you are, guys. >> we hope that never happens, it's good to be prepared. >> the problem with the commuter rails, they have up pollstered seats. so there is more fire danger. >> we appreciate your information on that. coming up what does the author of ""fifty shades of grey"" think of the [propeller plane] ♪ [phones ringing] ♪ [mission command] get free coffee all february long. just ask for a cup of our hot or iced coffee.

said i know you did. i think it's nicer he sat down after knowing that. >> i think you were not alone. none of us was alone. there were football experts who said it was the worst call. chris colons collinsworth. >> some are turning a bit and understand the thinking behind it. i'll tell you in seattle, they're very supportive of their coach so we sat down and talked. one of the things we wanted to talk about what was it like to have that happen not just in your daily life but on the biggest sporting stage in the world? here's what he had to say. >> you'd make the same call if the situation were the same today? >> we can change the rhythm of those calls. one of the calls was going to be a pass to stop the clock the game over is if you win if you score. >> that happened to be that one. going back again, i might do it different.

>> but can anything prepare you for something that bad happening on that big a stage? >> i am prepared for. that i was. i mean i'm still handling it for you right now. i'm still dealing with it right now as we go through it. we did so many beautiful things to get to that point. so many positive things and players that played so well coaches coax e coached so well on and on and on. >> that one moment isn't going to define this team and who we are. this is a championship team. it's a great game. it plays great football and plays as a team in a wonderful way. so that moment is what people might want to define us by. it won't, because we know the truth. >> obviously, he's a football coach. he's got a positive attitude. he did admitted in interview on tuesday morning at 4:05 a.m. lying by his wife's side. he let it go there, come out and he moved to the future. >> what about the players, do they stand by him and back up that decision? >> you know natalie at a team

meeting the day before yesterday called the entire team together. he says he's not sure everyone agrees with him. i asked him, did anyone raise their hand and say, coach, you blew it? he said they could have nobody did. if you look at the tweets out of the seattle area people are saying nobody i'd rather have lead this team than you pete carroll. you have nothing to be ashamed of. we got to where we are because of you. >> i was going to say, it's how you handle like what is something that we all looked at it the next day and said it could be the worst thing ever in his coaching career. but you know how he handled it and what he is projecting. i think for kids to see how he takes the positive message up. >> as we are walking away from the facility natalie, he said that to me if this interview can help someone dealing with something they think is insurmountable in their lives, take a fresh look at it and realize you can pivot and move to the future. then he'd be happy about it. >> you were saying since the

initial interview aired this morning, a lot of positive feedback on social pedia after they've seen him. >> a lot of people calling him a class act on our social media. >> people respect him i think even in that tell the truth locker room monday moment surely someone in the back of their minds thought, coach, it was a bad calm. but they have a level of respect for him and right after the game he said it was all me. >> right. >> tamron you make a good point. keep in mind he won the super bowl last year. he's an extremely good coach. i said to him. if you were a second or third year coach right off the pumpkin truck, but if this has happened to you then it would be a whole different ball game. >> it was the wrong call. we agree on that. he said as much. >> he said he might have done it differently. no he said though he said he made the call. he felt he should have made given the circumstances on the field. he thinks he made the right call. the worst result ever. >> what i was going to say, if

it's a touchdown right there, it's brilliant. we caught him in a bad formation. they weren't record for it. who would have thought? i would have thought to hand it to marshawn lynch. >> second-guessers like us. >> days later. >> he really is just seems like such a terrific guy. >> i 55 him a lot of credit. >> yesterday, we were watching this video over and over this transasia crash that dash-cam in its last moments, my gosh it's still hard to believe. there are 58 people on board. 31 died. there were 15 survivors as least. there is one story, incredible survivor story, husband, wife one-year-old son on the flight father is looking around finds his wife who is drowning. he gets her, saves her three-to-five minutes later finds his son with no heartbeat, performs cpr and saves him, father is okay. wife has had to have surgery. she is still in the hospital. the baby has inhalation pneumonia.

gps: proceed to the designated route. not today. for patients currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. xarelto® is just one pill a day taken with the evening meal. plus, with no known dietary restrictions jim can eat the healthy foods he likes. don't stop taking xarelto® rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to. while taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto® can cause serious bleeding and in rare cases, may be fatal. get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto® watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. jim changed his routine.

ask your doctor about xarelto®. once-a-day xarelto® means no regular blood monitoring, no known dietary restrictions. for information and savings options, download the xarelto® patient center app call 1-888-xarelto or visit goxarelto.com. taking a look at the headlines in another big case of computer hacking, anthem one of the nation's biggest insurance companies says it was the target of a big cyberattack that compromised personal information, including name social security numbers and birthdays. it says they also got a e-mails and employment information, including income data. well some optimism today about a new device that reaches parts of the body where cancer drugs cannot. according to a report in the
