nation's capitol. out of the u.s. military capital police and the u.s. military missed this. it played out wednesday a. mailman, doug hughes looking to deliver a message to washington. carrying 535 member one for each letter of congress protesting government production. >> this is not good people. >> reporter: ultimately landing on a capitol grounds. he was arrested. hughes blogged acted his plan in 2015 and shared his details with the tampa bay times last year. >> i don't think the authorities will shoot down a 60-year-old mailman in a flying bicycle. >> reporter: reporter ben montgomery went to washington to watch but never alerted authorities. >> it's not my job to pull the plug on somebody doing something like this. >> reporter: it is unclear whether federal law enforcement was aware of this before he flew in. >> if you can think all of the ways people can attack your

area too many people are getting through. >> reporter: overnight, we spoke to hughes' friends mike shanahan. >> i'm not going to deny that it was a kind of a fluke thing to do but it was also very brave and very patriotic. he is going to pay a dear price. >> reporter: he hughes told the tampa bay times he took off from gettysburg regional airport in pennsylvania. that's about an hour the way the crow flies. he will likely end up behind bars and make his first court appearance this afternoon. >> brave, recreation and dangerous? a lot of peel will be weighing in. we are learning moron about the arizona police officer who ran down and injured a suspect with his patrol camp. an incident from his time here in new york city is getting new attention this morning. here's nbc's miguel almaguer. >> reporter: new details this morning about the officer behind the wheel in that shocking

police dash-cam video. court documents obtained by kboa he was a subject of a lawsuit while serving with the nypd in 2005. according to documents, a man claimed the officer threatened to shoot him and handcuffed and choked him. the defense team for the officer and the city of new york denied the allegations. the case settled in 2008 when the city of new york agreed to pay the man $20,000. meanwhile, the debate this morning continues over this video. >> oh! >> reporter: and whether the use of this force was created -- >> using the vehicle i think was a very creative outside of the box, kind of thinking. >> reporter: or excessive. >> man down! >> this is another example of excessive police force, but it's completely unnecessary. >> reporter: the suspect, mario valencia was hospitalized by survived. now police officers are saying

they can't understand the tape without knowing the being story that the crash stopped valencia's crime spree, a holdup, a church fire, a home invasion and police say a gun theft from wal-mart. moments before the impact valencia is seen firing the gun in the air, threatening suicide. do you think police did the right thing? >> yes, sir. >> reporter: why? >> because the man had a lowered rifle. >> reporter: the officer has been cleared of any charges. >> the officer did what they had to do and we're okay with it. >> one of those stories where every day you hear new information and every day you tend to think something in a different direction. >> yeah. i just picture him shooting that gun off going down the street and wondering what someone should do. let's move on meantime as the presidential field takes place, there is one major player who has yet to say whether he is running or not.

new jersey governor chris christie. he is testing the waters in new hampshire this week where we caught up with him exclusively. it seems like forever we have been talking about the potential of you running for president. doesn't it? >> me too. >> now, things have changed. you have got a team in place, a political team, a pac up and running. you are here in new hampshire again and you will be here again later in the week. so what are you waiting for? >> you know i've got a day job to do obviously, it's important. new jersey as the governor. obviously, we're still going through the really personal part of this decision which me and mary pat and the family. you know, you do that you don't rush that decision. do you that in the time that it takes. >> i have known you for a long time. i am looking in your eyessh. there isn't one way that you can convince me that you haven't made the decision you just have to make the decision. >> it's the truth, though it is absolutely the truth, mary pat and i have not made a decision. >> let's talk about the last year-and-a-half, though

obviously, we could be talking about a week where indictments could be handed down in what is now known as bridgegate while, nobody thinks you will be indicted. some of your close advisers of the past could be indicted. how much has bridgegate tarnished the governor? >> listen i don't think anybody likes to have something like that happen on your watch. there is no question it affects you. no question. in part because it was a bad thing that happened. but also in part because of the incredible cover annual that it got. >> let's talk about some numbers. okay. >> sure. >> prior to bridgegate your national popularity upper 40%. after bridge the gate 20%. prior in new jersey some in the 60s, some say 70s. after bridgegate 35% that's a big hit. >> matt, if they played as many bad thegs about you intensely

over and over again, it will affect anybody. that's in the past. poll numbers go up and down based upon your performance and i am far, far from finished with my career. so you know you have the chance to go back up again. >> the big picture, governor there was a time where when people talked about 2016 all on the republican side it was about you. is it possible that while you were dealing -- i don't want to call them distractions because that makes them sound trivial -- of the serious bridgegate back in new jersey that your moment passed? >> i don't know. neither do you. we'll see. i tell you this much i have been the front runner before. it's a place with a bulls eye on your back. everybody is shooting at you. that's okay. i'm fine where i am right now. i haven't changed. all that other stuff is artificial until the game really begins. the game hasn't come close to beginning. >> there is three, marco rubio, ted cruz and rand palm. of those three governor, in your

opinion, who has the best shot. >> i they governor or a former governor because i believe our party and country is something that has run something. while i have a great respect for a number of those folks, i don't believe that we have done well with the experiment of a one term u.s. senator being the president of the united states so i think it will be a governor or a former governor. >> you took a shot at a couple of those people. let's talk about a former governor jeb bush who has not declared but is out there raising millions of millions of dollars. when you look at a potential one u run, is he your biggest rival? >> well i don't know. you would have thought when he announced in december that it would be. it seems that frame has slowed down pretty significantly from around the country. >> do you think it will speed up again when he finally jumped full force in the race? >> i don't know. here's the great thing about politics matt. none of it matters until the game starts to see how people

perform under these lights. >> you have no lack of confidence in your own ability to perform under these lights? >> i've done okay over the years. >> hillary clinton, she's a foregone conclusion on the democratic side. >> she was a foregone conclusion if 2007 matt. so was rudy guiliani in 2007. so i don't know what's going to happen on the democratic side. mrs. clinton will have to perform to the best of her nomination. nobody is handed this. >> i want to end this with you with five questions. quick ones. i want you to complete these sentences for me. >> okay. here we go. >> president obama made my country. >> weaker. >> in 2017 obamacare will be. >> repealed and replaced. >> in 2017 gay marriage will be. >> hmm. decided by the u.s. supreme court. >> which way? >> i don't know.

>> in 2017 concore will be. >> probably no longer a factor in marine life. >> and last one in 2017 my work address will be -- >> we'll see. i don't know. i don't know. >> what do you want it to be? >> i will make that decision in the next couple months. but i'll tell you this folks know me pretty well. if i decide i want to do this i'm going to do it honestly and go out as hard as i possibly can and try to win every di. but i will never give up being who i am because that's going to stay with me forever. >> wow. great series of last questions. >> interesting his response. i think he's really surprised a lot of people if he doesn't. we'll wait to hear it from his mouth. coming up in our next half hour governor christie's wife mary pat jones our conversation. she'll open up about the impact of a potential white house run

on her career and their family concerns if there are any, about her husband's health. >> he has enjoyed a couple milk shakes. >> in a place in new hampshire, vanilla for him. >> all right. natalie is here with some arrests in california. >> yes, this is a cause for sure. two u.s. army reservists are scheduled to appear in court today. they are charged with illegally selling guns, ammunition and body armor to an undercover federal agent posing as a member of the mexican drug cartel. according to criminal complaint they sold ten guns including four ak-47 assault rifles. some of the arms were stolen from the military. both men work in the army national guard in le mesa california. a victory for general motors after a federal bankruptcy judge ruled the auto maker is shielded from death and injury claims in crashes that happened before its 2009 bankruptcy.

then i got to hold ava last night. so it's been hard to see your baby in you know the isolets but that moment when you get to finally touch your baby and hold them there is no better feeling than that for sure. >> adam, have you another daughter blake. i heard you say now you have a half dozen girls. which, hello! >> wow! >> have you planned out how you guys are going to work the feedings the changing all those kind of things at home when everyone gets home? >> we haven't quite figured all that out yet. i'm still getting used to changing them right now in the nicu. it's pretty overwhelming just because they're so tiny and, you know their legs are this big around. whenever they kick i don't want to grab them firmly i'm scared i'm going to break them. we'll have to figure that out quick. >> i saw blake peeking in she must really be enjoying it.

i want to talk to the doctors for a second. are you guys please with how the babies are doing? >> very. very pleased. >> tell us how they are doing. >> well they all started out very vigorous. they're right now on some nasal c-pap support, but they're actually breathing room air and they're going to start some mom's breast milk today. >> that is terrific. all right. guys so when are you hoping to head home? >> well we'll head home today. the babies will stay until you know they continue to grow and hit a few milestones. they'll be here for a little while. >> danielle you look wonderful. it's hard to believe you had the babies last week. are you feeling okay? >> i am surprisingly. i feel pretty good. so it's kind of a shock. i mean i just had five babies

everything we do. they have been around this business of politics and government for five six years now. so they're aware of the positives and the negatives and we really learned as a family how to deal with all that. >> so what do you say to him? what questions do you two ask each other in terms of this not worth it politically, but is it worth it to our family? >> yeah. we just continually remind each other that life is a balance and, first of all the most important thing in our lives is our family and we don't want to mess that up and we work really hard at keeping that balance in our lives. >> if your husband decides to run for president, will you take a leave of absence from your job? you have a great job. >> yes, i do have a great job. >> a leave of absence from gold man sax, would you do the same thing? >> i'm not sure him i'm not sure what i will do with regards to that. i know i want to spend a lot of time with my family.

all those things are important. so i haven't decided that yet. >> that's a big sacrifice for a spouse to make. >> enorm mouse. she -- enormous. she has an incredible career. it would be a big sacrifice to ask from her. it wouldn't be a requirement from my perspective. it's got to be about our lives. she talked about balance and you know her career is really important to her and she shouldn't be asked to sacrifice that unless it's something she wants to do. >> it's a tough decision. >> it would be but you know everything in time. >> let me ask you, governor, a moron personal question. a publicized weight loss surgery two years ago. you haven't revealed how much you have lost except to you, i think. >> yes. >> health wise right now how are you feeling? >> i feel great. i really do. it's the best thing that i've ever done for my health. i look back on it now and wish ied a done it years ago. my doctor this past weekend

[ laughter ] >> from college. >> he's got a ton of energy. doesn't he? all right. now on to some surprising new research that could change the way you think about aging in a very positive way. the always young, always beautiful, kathie lee gifford is here with us [ applause ] >> come out as well. >> i'm so glad giselle is retiring because i can work with her now. we like to say age is just a number right, al? >> yes, absolutely. >> with people living longer and healthier before, a new study suggests we should slide up the definition although my eyesight is going a tad -- of middle age, oh by a few decades.

>> on the covers and the carpets, age is being re-imagened. >> we're living in a new age of aging. >> christy brinkley she's 61. sigourney weaveer, 65. and helen mirren a vibrant 69 and reba mcintyre just joined the club. i hard you had a big birthday last month. >> yeah turned 60-years-old. >> how did that feel? >> it felt wonderful. it really did. >> how about the rest of us? >> life expectancy has gone up if ten years in the past generation one generational gap. >> our bodies and brains are staying stronger lodgeer than ever. in 2012 life expectancy in the u.s. reached a record high of 78.8 years with women expected to live to the ripe old age of 81. men 76. when it comes to that loaded term middle age, it may be time to rethink it entirely according to new research. someone who is 60-years-old today, i would argue is middle

aged says the co-author of a new study published in the plos one journal. the faster the increase in life expectancy the less aging is actually going on. it's not about a number when it comes to age, according to study. it's about how your body and mind measure up. >> your whole body doesn't age at the same speed. siv organs age differently. some people can stay younger than their age on tear birheir birth certificate. >> as we're living longer 65 doesn't sound so old at all. experts say there is a lot of living to do. >> don't be afraid of getting older. be fearless. be fearless after 50! be fearless after 60! and beyond. embrace your age and be proud of it. >> embrace your age. >> that's what we all say. you know what can you do about it otherwise? you know. >> enjoy it. >> exactly. i'm middle age now. i feel great.

>> no i didn't mean that. it's not from my perspective. >> you feel fantastic. >> you know i do feel great. so sometimes you see your age and you just kind of go oh i'm not that person. my mother used to say i'm a 53-year-old woman, a 28-year-old woman in a 53-year-old body. now i understand what she means, but i don't want to be middle aged. >> why? >> that means i can live to be 122-years-old. do the math. >> you exercise. you do all the right things that you are supposed to do. you said something interesting about your voice, which i hasn't thought of. >> it was funny when i was listening to the tape which i recorded this mo. my voice is the most obvious to me that has aged the most. that's too much whiskey, too many cigarettes. >> i will tell you. >> you look well. >> turning 66 i don't know what i expected 60 to be but it feels a lot better than i thought. >> what age do you feel?

>> i don't know, 45, 50. >> what if you still had the weight on you? >> i'd feel a lot older. >> what about matt how does 66 feel? [ laughter ] >> i was sitting here minding my own business. you know i do think people make a mistake of, emotionally, they pretend they're older. how many times have you heard somebody 50-years-old get into a chair like this. you're 50. you're not that old. >> have you as to wake up every morning, if you have a pulse, you still have a purpose. i think what happens to people is they lose any purpose in life and, therefore, they don't feel needed they don't feel appreciated or valued and they give up on life and there is still so much. we have everyone has a story today. it's amazing. his name is harold 92-years-old still, still builds houses for habitat for humanity. >> yes. you are right. >> le wakes up oh i got a pulse, god is not finished with me yet. >> and i got purpose. >> you got it. >> klg. >> yellow bird. >> all right. we will head upstairs to carson. hey, carson.

if you think about it. the cosmos aired in prime time on a sunday night when everybody is home. i didn't twist arms to make that happen. so it seems natural, programs that in the talk show portfolio somebody is going to be talking about science. it happens to be me. >> let's make sure we understand late night talk show. it's not like you will do a monologue. no band from no band it's not what you think. it's once a week. we will not track the latest current events. it's really an exploration, a celebration of what it is to think like a goekeek. >> you like to draw pop culture you look back on the classic series "star trek." you say there were relevant lessons to talk about that we still talk about today. >> exactly. you say i'm drawing a line. no i'm erasing the line. >> maybe a better way to put it. >> start talking the blend of comedy. my co-host will always business a professional stand-up

comedian. we have a set of two or three of them. not only that we blend pop culture in with the science. it's a celebration of because no matter who the guest is because generally i won't even have a scientist as a guest. there will be people from pop culture. i will say, do you have any geek moments in your life? i want them to express their inner geek. >> i like what you said science is trending. i think all too often science gets a bad rap. you hear kids coming home from school oh it's boring. parents forget the wonder of skievenls i look i look at you as a guy that shatters that. you have almost 3.5 million people following you on twitter. >> that's what gets me every morning, never mind i'm an astro physicist. they don't pull out? it's a mistake. i don't know. it's evidence i think there is occuriosty and a wonder. it's a wonder by the way that

all kids have. i think people think of science, here you are in school. and we're going to pour information into you. but science is everywhere. it's not something you can step around or over. see that's science but i'm not about science. science is about you. >> and there should be a parenting law, few hear your kids come home and say science is boring. you have to say, no it is not! >> that is the alarm, right, the total alarm. so the guests we have i have president carter who is a guest. i did not ask him about the middle east as anyone else would normally do. we talked about his engineering background and how his inner geek manifests his professional life today. >> it is time for a show like this. this is no one better to host it than you, neil. >> thank you matt. >> good luck with that.

you've heard the saying 50 is the new 30? even better news for the 76 million baby boomers like myself and know houda. >> yeah. 60 is the new middle age. >> right pap new study, we love finds the desks of old is changing as we live our lives longer and healthier lives, really. >> here to explain what that really means nbc news medical contributor dr. natalie azhar. >> you look beautiful. >> we're into your look. >> you look great. >> thank you. >> when you think about people living longer is it partly because we know what to eat? we're healthier, much more active and mobile? does that contribute to this? >> absolutely. i think there's a host of factors. environmental, sanitation diet

lifestyle. obviously medicines keeping us alive for much longer. >> yes. statins and all that. >> not that we're keeping ourselves alive longer but it appears we are healthier in our 60s and 70s than 100 years ago. >> interesting you say the environment, but we hear so much about how the environment's awful for us now. why aren't we dying from it? >> oh my god. >> oh my god! >> you didn't expect that one. did you? >> no i didn't expect that one. obviously it's not the only reason but it's more an awareness of the things that are going to be the number one killers. like heart disease and cancer. those two things haven't changed over the last 60 years, but at the turn of the 20th century the number one killers were infections influenza, pneumonia. no antibiotics. even though the reasons have changed evolutionarily the reasons changed we're mindful and can make changes or interventions to offset that. >> what is considered old now? at what age?

>> well the u.n. decided that 60 is old age. and this is what's interesting about the new study. the new study says age can be an absolute number. you're 60 biologically cells 60 years old. whatever that means. >> right. >> okay. then there's a new concept of relative age, and that is time to death. okay? they suggest that around 10 to 15 years before you die is when you really begin aging. so then we take what's our life expectancy. the average is around 78. so that means that you don't become old until maybe your mid to late 60s making 60 middle age. that's the calculation. do you buy it? >> just different math than i was taught. middle means -- right down -- right down half and half baby. >> but it kind of makes sense, though. think life expectancy used to be 65. health declines rapidly in the last few years. >> i'll miss you, hoda. >> dr. natalie, thank you so much. >> you're so welcome.
