7:02 am
morning to you. that tour helicopter, i want to show you where it crashed, right behind me in that murky water andt is still there this morning. this is an area visited by nearly 2 million people every year and helicopter tours are very popular. but once you see this video, it's hard to imagine anyone made it out alive. a heart-stopping moment caught on camera. this helicopter carrying tourists near pearl harbor suddenly plummeting into the ocean just 20 feet from shore. >> oh. >> reporter: a family of four including a 15-year-old boy and the pilot on board. the chopper falling from the sky, then crashing into the water. sinking near the popular pearl harbor visitors center. witnesses frantically jumping in to help. >> we all jumped the wall and ran over to help. i pulled everything out of my pocket pockets. >> reporter: almost immediately three people swam to the surface but the 15-year-old reportedly trapped underwater for several
7:03 am
pulled out of the wreckage. >> we got him. >> oh, god. yay. [ applause ] >> whoo. >> reporter: first responders performing cpr on the boy before he was transported to the hospital in critical condition. >> three minutes that person was underwater. that was scary. >> reporter: this morning the ntsb is investigating what caused this doors off helicopter to go down. bystanders say the last thing they heard was the chopper sputtering then two loud bangs before it crashed. now, in addition to that 15-year-old boy who is still listed in critical condition this morning, three other people were taken to the hospital. one was released overnight. now this tour was run by genesis aviation and at this point they have no comment. george. >> thanks, kayna. we are joined by christian gardner who jumped in to save those passengers and shawn winrich who caught that rescue on tape. thank you both for joining us this morning. chris, let me just begin with you. when did you realize what was
7:04 am
>> i heard the helicopter. i did not see it. i just heard it go into what we call auto rotation and i saw people running and screaming and -- >> all your instincts kicked in. what did you see when you got underwater and how did you guys manage to get the person in the belt free? >> pearl harbor is pretty murky. luckily the helicopter is only in about ten feet of water. and they were fortunate to have been flying with the doors off, which is a good thick. you know, so the passengers were accessible. everybody had gotten out except i guess he was a kid in the back. >> aand you guys had to cut through that seat belt. >> a couple other guys in the water with me, brian who is a federal police officer and we had a navy sailor and one of them finally got a knife and we were able to slightly cut through and it took a long time. six or seven minutes to finally cut through it. >> and shawn, as you were there, you just happened to be turning
7:05 am
helicopter, right? >> i just happened to have, you know, my phone aimed or in that direction and, you know, noticed the helicopter flying awkwardly low and essentially coming straight for us. i wasn't sure. i thought it would be cool -- >> why didn't you run? >> at that instant i did have a moment twarry fear for safety of myself and others around with rotating blades and you can actually see in the slow motion video where i did actually duck a little bit right after the impact. >> and thank goodness now everybody is doing better this morning. chris, you know, did you ever think about the danger you were putting yourself in? you acted so quickly. >> you know, anybody else would have done the same thing and there was multiple people that jumped in the water at the same time, so it's just the way we do it here in hawaii.
7:06 am
thanks very much. thanks for joining us this morning. >> all right. aloha. >> you're welcome. >> all generous instinct there. >> that's how they do it there in hawaii and hopefully everybody will make a full recovery. the other big headline this morning. donald trump versus the pope. the two caught in a public war of words as pope francis proclaims the gop front-runner is not christian and a new poll out this morning shows trump's lead is shrinking in south carolina. abc's tom llamas has the latest, joins us from columbia. good morning, tom. >> reporter: robin, good morning to you. that shows the magnitude of donald trump's unorthodox campaign and his controversial policies. on the global stage a world leader condemning trump and that new poll you showed down here in south carolina, the race is tightening. a new fight for donald trump, pope francis proclaiming what trump's critics have been whispering, that trump is not christian. >> i didn't think it was a good thing for him to say, frankly. >> reporter: the pope making the
7:07 am
mexico in his papal plane. a person who thinks only about building walls wherever they may be and not of building bridges is not christian, the pope said. [ speaking a foreign language ] >> they're using the pope as a pawn and they should be ashamed of themselves. >> reporter: trump, the south carolina front-runner blaming mexico for convincing the pope trump's border wall is not humane and his campaign tweeting an image of vatican city showing it's surrounded by walls. >> so, if and when the vatican is attacked by isis, which as everyone knows is isis' trophy, i can promise you that the pope would have only wished and prayed that donald trump would have been president. >> and trump who just a few days ago said this about senator ted cruz -- >> i have never seen anybody that lied as much as ted cruz and he goes around saying he's a christian. >> reporter: trump now saying this. >> no leader, especially a
7:08 am
the right to question another man's religion or faith. >> reporter: but in this fight, cruz was trying to stay neutral. >> listen, that's between donald and the pope. i'm not going to get in the middle of that. >> do you think it's unchristian to have a border wall? >> reporter: senator cruz also favors a border wall. >> reporter: do you think it's unchristian to build a border wall? he dodged me as i tried to get his comments. do you think a border wall is unchristian? >> i'll visit with the voters now. thank you. >> reporter: overnight senator marco rubio, a catholic, said this. >> the pope wasn't speaking about a theological matter but a political matter. i disagree with a lot of things donald trump said but i do think america has a right to secure its borders. >> reporter: donald trump still says he wants to meet the pope and respects his position as head of the catholic church. this is not your typical donald trump counterpunch, but, again, robin, we are talking about the pope. >> thank you. chief foreign correspondent terry moran was part of that
7:09 am
the papallane and joins us now from the vatican. terry, that must have been something on the plane like that. did the pope intend to inject himself into the presidential race? >> reporter: well, good morning, robin. it was a stunning moment and we all looked at each other when he said it. i think the pope is being accurately quoted. he knew exactly what he was doing. he knows who donald trump is. look at his face when he's asked about him and, in fact, he's been saying these things to european leaders here, the exact same kind of things. also you go back to his time in oregon, argentina he gave a lot of politicians headaches. he knows exactly what he's doing here. >> i've traveled like many of us to vatican city many types and i'm trying to recall that wall that donald trump is referring to. what is he talking about? >> reporter: well, they're pretty spectacular. they surround much of the vatican, thousand-year-old massive medieval walls to keep out bandits and invading barbarians and such, however, just behind me here, that's st. peter's square.
7:10 am
just a little white line on the pavement and millions of people walk i i there every year. no police check. no border check. people just walk right into the vatican. that's the point. >> quite open to the public. all right, thank you. >> we move on to the democrats and what looks like a dead heat in nevada. the latest polls show hillary clinton and bernie sanders neck and neck and ramping up the attacks ahead of tomorrow's caucuses. cecilia vega is on the scene in las vegas. good morning, cecilia. >> reporter: hi, george, good morning to you. the attacks are at fever pitch here but bernie sanders is feeling confident. he says if people show up tomorrow he could win this. overnight, hillary clinton firing off on bernie sanders for criticizing the president. >> senator sanders wasn't really a democrat until he decided to run for president. you know what, well, it's true. >> reporter: the final forum before saturday's caucuseses the two rivals in this neck and neck race, going head-to-head. >> there is one of the two democratic candidates here who actually ran against barack obama.
7:11 am
>> i take a backseat to nobody in being very clear about what i will do to make sure wall street never crashes main street again. >> reporter: sanders also saying he is a feminist and this. >> in fact, gloria steinem made me an honorary woman many, many years ago. >> reporter: in this fight to the finish both sides fighting to win latino and union workers in the silver state. >> i'm not just making speeches or promises free this and free that and free everything. >> reporter: in the process, they nearly came face-to-face on the picket line, clinton first, just minutes later, sanders right there too. >> so thank you very much for what you are doing. >> reporter:r:he attacks never ending. sanders accusing clinton of cozying up to president obama in an election year. >> and we know what that's about. that's trying to win support from the african-american community where the president is enormously popular. >> reporter: and clinton asked if she's always told the truth caught up on her own answer.
7:12 am
always. always. >> reporter: and i stop by one of hillary clinton's campaign offices here in las vegas. i can tell you it was packed full of volunteers. they are making thousands of calls just out of that one office alone every single day. bernie sanders, george, might be feeling of can dent but hillary clinton is not going down without a fight here. george. >> caucuses at 11:00 a.m. tomorrow. cecilia, thanks very much. let's talk about it with our analyst matt dowd and cokie roberts. let's begin with the comments from the pope. your mom served as ambassador to the vatican for several years. how surprised with were you that the pope injected himself in this way? >> well, i was a little bit surprised but he has been very clear on all kinds of issues where he thinks he's following what jesus said which is what it is to be christian. he backed away when people said should you not vote for donald trump, he said, i'm not going to get into that and he did also say i'll give him the benefit of the doubt. but his basic statement that if
7:13 am
walls instead of bridges, it's kind of hard to argue with. >> although that would implicate a lot of the other candidates, as well, not just donald trump. meanwhile, matthew dowd, what impact do you think it has on the race? >> this whole story makes me think this should start with the pope and a presidential candidate walk into a bar. in the course of this i think it's an amazing week that we've had. you have a candidate, the leading candidate for the republicans to get in a fight with the pope. get in fight with the popular governor and the popular republican president. get in fight with a popular incumbent us senator and is likely to win the south carolina primary in the course of this. i think this doesn't hurt him at all and in some ways it may help him. if people have to pick between building a wall and supporting the pope, they're going to in the republican primary right now they're going to pick building the wall and you can see every other one of donald trump's opponents have not gone anywhere near this or they've supported donald trump in this. >> meantime, cokie, you are actually --
7:14 am
keep -- right in south carolina where the catholic population is 7% total. this might have been a much more difficult moment for donald trump in new hampshire or iowa where the catholic population is 35%, 25%. so this is not a state where the pope is likely to be terribly popular. >> end of the line for some gop candidates tomorrow? >> yes, i think at best a four-way going forward so 6-4 and could be a three-way race after tomorrow. >> matt dowd, cokie roberts, thanks very much. back to robin. >> now, george, back to that big warm-up heading east and the firenados heading to the plains and rob marciano is tracking it all for us. >> good morning out in times square. it's 25 degrees but we've seen this week we can go from winter to spring, even summer in a hurry and that's exactly what we'll do. already happening in the plains. look at this video out of pratt county, missouri, just outside of kansas city, numerous grasp fires yesterday. a firenado or whirl, kind of a dust devil in those fires were
7:15 am
some minor evacuations but to danger there. wind warnings up. more high fire danger in the central part of the u.s. and wind watches from california all the way to new york state. temperatures in the 70s and 80s again and that gets to new york city by the end of the week. robin, back over to you. >> thank you. now to the supreme court, the world, of course, remembering justice scalia as his body lies in repose today in the supreme court building. president obama and the first lady expected to pay their respects this afternoon ahead of tomorrow's funeral. abc's jon karl is outside the court for us now. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, robin. it's a day of history, tradition and remembrance at the supreme court. the casket carrying justice scalia's body will be brought here later carried up the steps of the supreme court into the
7:16 am
on what is called the lincoln cat that catta cattafalk and lie in row pose till 8:00 tonight. the public can pay its respects. tomorrow the funeral service and at that funeral service tomorrow, robin, the homily given by justice paul scalia, that's justice -- reverend paul scalia, that is justice scalia's son. >> and we're told that the obamas will not be attending the funeral tomorrow. do we know why? >> reporter: well, the white house said the president felt the most appropriate place for him to pay his respects would be here. he will be here at the court, as you mentioned later today and tomorrow vice president biden will represent the white house at the service. they point out that biden has a much smaller security detail, will be less disruptive. >> you bring up the vice president. his name is being mentioned as a possible supreme court -- >> reporter: yeah, possible nominee. i wouldn't really suggest that's likely to happen. but it's interesting, neither the white house nor biden yesterday refused to rule it out but i would say that would be a robin. >> i'm sure going to be hearing future.
7:17 am
now to amy with the other top developing stories right now starting with breaking news against -- in the fight against isis. >> that's right. we are getting word of a u.s. air strike in libya. the target was an isis camp west of the capital city of tripoli. believed to be the location of an isis leader wanted for attacks in nearby tunisia. no word if he was killed but more than 30 isis recruits reportedly have died. apple may have extra time in its battle against the fbi. bloomberg reporting they've been given until next friday to respond to a court order directing them to unlock the cell phone that belonged to syed farook. facebook is the latest tech company to support apple in fighting the order citing those privacy concerns. and some shocking video from south texas. the tap water, look at that, in one city looks more like oil. wow. people in crystal city say they were never warned that their water system was being flushed. this all comes as several city offs face corruption charges.

7:31 am
ago. mr. trump, thank you for joining us again this morning. are you worried at all this this race? >> you never know, george. with me it's illegal immigration. we want to have the wall. we have to have the wall. we have to stop the drugs from pouring in and the illegal immigrants from just absolutely pouring into our country and somehow the mexican government's said that donald trump wants to -- is the front-runner, wants to stop all of this from happening and the pope made mention of it. i think it was a little lighter than mentioned than the press portrayed after i read a transcript but, you know, it's about illegal immigration, george. we have to have a border or we just don't have a country. >> so if you were president right now and you had the chance to meet with the pope as president obama did -- has, what would you say to him? >> well, i think i'd explain the problem of the border and i'm sure he's getting the one side, mexico, we have a tremendous trade deficit, $58 billion trade
7:32 am
in other words, they're making a fortune off of the united states and, you know, much of it is coming in illegally and i think i would explain the problems of illegal immigration, the tremendous crime that's ensued. the tremendous economic burden that we've got and the drug problem. i mean, i just won in a fantastic place called new hampshire. they have a heroin problem that you wouldn't believe and it's the number one question i got up there, george, all the time. first question is how do we stop the heroin from, you know, pouring in, and i told them i would do it because they really do have it and, you know, more so than most and we have to create a border. we have to have a strong border. the border patrol and the wall and everything else and i think i'd explain our side of the picture because our side of the picture is very correct but the mexican officials don't want the strong border because they're frankly making a fortune with the way the border is right now. >> you know, you have -- you're not afraid to speak your mind
7:33 am
and drawn criticism from pope francis and the british and french prime minister and taken on president bush and governor hayley. are you concerned at all? >> i never praised putin. putin said good things about me. >> you said he's tougher and stronger than president obama. >> no, i said two things. i said he's a stronger leader than president obama but that's not praise. being stronger isn't too tough. saddam hussein, i certainly never praised him but i did say he killed terrorists and i did say the war in iraq was a massive mistake. it was one of the great mistakes in the history of our country. we've totally destabilized 9 middle east. we have nothing out of it. we have wounded warriors who we love and 2 trillion we spent on it and nothing out of it and, you know, right now iran is taking over iraq and i said a long time ago that this is something that we shouldn't be doing. we have destabilized the middle east. we have gotten nothing out of the war in iraq.
7:34 am
>> i never praised saddam hussein. i did say that saddam hussein killed terrorists. >> you have -- >> now iraq is harbor for terrorists. >> you said many times during the campaign that you were against the iraq war before it began and no evidence turned up to support that and yesterday buzzfeed receive this clip from "the howard stern show" which showed you supporting the invasion. >> are you for invading iraq? >> yeah, i guess so. you know, i wish -- i wish the first time it was done correctly. >> now will you stop claiming you're the only one against the iraq war before it began? >> no, that was long before the war began and by the time the war began i was saying and i'm on record as saying that we shouldn't go in -- >> but you're not on record at all opposing the war before it began. there's simply no evidence of that, sir. >> well, there is evidence and i'll find evidence because i was against the war and you can see the way i said that, that was long before the war started and that was an interview that was
7:35 am
actually asked that question. >> you said you were for the invasion. >> you could see i was not exactly strongly in favor. that's the first time it was ever asked but that was long before the war started. by the time the war started i was against and in 2003 you have evidence that i was against and i've been against it for years. i've been against it for years, george, and it was a mistake. it's something that we should not have done. >> we look forward to seeing that evidence of you being against it before the war began and thank you again for joining us this morning. >> okay, thank you very much. and more votes will be cast this weekend. >> uh-huh. >> all right, george. now we'll talk about that california mom and pta president who was framed by fellow parents ss planting drugs in her car. kelli peters is speaking out for the first time since the jury awarded her nearly $6 million in damages. abc's chris connelly has her story. >> i won my lawsuit and it's basically finally all over. >> reporter: for kelli peters,

7:37 am
>> reporter: tests showed the easters' dna on stuff in peters' car. that phone call, police traced it to this newport beach hotel. that man on surveillance kent easter. >> the pieces started to come together. >> reporter: kelli was cleared and the easters charged with false imprisonment for her bogus bust. jill copped a plea and it put kept away for 1 0 days. months later kelli's attorney deposing a defiant kent in this exclusive video. >> sir, did you knowingly participate in a scheme with your wife to frame kelli peters? >> no. >> reporter: yet he'd sing a different tune at the civil trial admitting under oath he planted those drugs. >> he also said kelli didn't do anything to my son. it was all made up. that made me start crying. >> reporter: you tried to fall on his sword and say i admit it.
7:38 am
i think the jury saw through it. >> reporter: hard to say when she might see some of that money but for now she's proud to have taken on her one-time accusers. >> all right, chris, thank you. coming up, new threat to your computer right now. hackers holding date that hostage. the big money, how you can

you remember this moment from last season's "dancing with the stars"? >> uh-huh. >> derek hough, bindi irwin. they swept away the judges. took home the mirror ball trophy and we're showing you this because the new season of "dancing with the stars" starts next month. we have a big announcement this morning. we are going to be revealing the entire cast for the next season of "dancing with the stars" live right here on "gma" on march 8th. you're going to want to tune in. >> really? i haven't heard. >> we know something that we can't tell you. >> you have to whisper. >> keep a secret for three weeks. >> it's going to be hard with us. we will. >> look who is outside. dario the dog that stole so many hearts at westminster with rob right now. we'll meet with dario in just a bit and have treats for him. >> off camera i had him
8:31 am
he is giant and so lovable. >> gentle giant. >> i love him. in this last half hour we will turn back time. inject that. turn back time and show you how a simple haircut can take years off your look, our three models, beautiful model gabrielle, nancy and melissa are shedding hair and years with the help of our elite glam squad. we'll show you their amazing transformations in a minute but first the famous women who inspired these looks. at the golden globes the s.a.g. awards, even the super bowl, it's not just the gowns turning heads, it's the hair. for stars looking to embrace a youthful look, out are severe updos of yesteryear. in are more natural spontaneous looks, just ask hairstylist to the stars ted gibson. >> in order for a woman to look younger her hair should be a little more sexy, a little bit more tossled, not so overdone
8:32 am
>> among ted's favorite looks, natural waves like those rocked by tina fey, julieian moore and none other than queen bey herself beyonce in her star turn at the super bowl. also helpful in channeling a youthful vibe, nuanced highlights, the kind jennifer aniston has perfected. the light hair with darker roots traditionally makes faces look younger than straight up blond locks, a final way to channel the fountain of youth loose buns and braids like those sported by amanda peet and kate winslet. all in a day's work for hollywood's a-lister. i guess it is. joining us now to help reveal the look. "allure" magazine editor in chief michelle lee. >> hi, everyone. >> just changing your hairdo. >> an absolute change. i'm so happy with the befores and afters. we can't wait to show everyone. >> should we go? >> let us start with gabrielle. take a look at gabrielle before
8:33 am
let's take a look at you. whoa! beautiful. so, tell us, michelle, tell us. >> gabrielle before, i mean obviously has an amazing face. what was happening with her hair, though, she was dragging everything down so as we get older, you know, we lose some of the plumpness in her faces, what she was doing by tugging and straightening that hair and going against her natural shape was she was actually aging herself. so what we did was we went back to nature. we went back to her natural curl, she's got some bounce and it kind of creates this nice lift in her face, so instantly years off. >> come on, girl. you look -- you do look ten years younger. >> thank you. >> do you like it? >> i love it. >> is it something you can keep up and do? >> that might be a challenge. >> we'll see. >> i can do it. >> all right. >> thank you, gabrielle. thank you very much. and now our next look, this is nancy before.
8:34 am
come on out, nance. oh. >> tell us about her. >> nancy looks amazing. so, for nancy it's really about color, so before nancy was kind of this platinum color and i think that's really hard to pull off sometimes. what happens is that w wn your collection and hair color are too similar you end up looking little washed out so what that does is it ages you so what we wanted to do was add more warmth into her face so we gave her a little bit more of a golden glow. >> yes. >> we gave her these beautiful, beautiful soft layers which also has a lifting effect. so she looks great. when i saw nancy backstage she was so happy with everything. i love seeing the smile too. >> i am loving this. how about you, nancy. >> i love it. oh, my goodness. >> i know. >> my goodness. >> thank you. thank you, thank you, thank you. last but certainly not least we have melissa.
8:35 am
and let's see melissa now. come on out. ooh, the cut. big change. >> big change here. >> yeah, melissa is our showstopper, you know. she is like massive length came off. i think it looks fantastic. in our before what you saw was that excessive length to draw the entire face down so it was actually aging her quite a bit so we cut off quite a bit of hair. i think it was about six inches, right? >> yep. >> and it gave her this nice bang and i think bangs are really interesting thing. i know so many women over the age of like 16 who are terrified of bangs. actually bangs are great and very useful. >> the type of bang too. >> the type of bang makes a big difference. i think when we think of bangs we think of the blunt thing. that actually can age people because it kind of ends up widening the face which we don't want to do so what we did with melissa we gave her this nice soft wispy bang which helps to kind of like soften her face and add some shape to it too. >> were you a little nervous about taking off so much hair.
8:36 am
a great change, i really love it. >> it really -- hey, come on out. the other two, nancy, gabrielle. we want to see you all here. i got to tell you, we've done these segments over the years and i'm thinking, oh, you got -- you look great before. look wonderful now and are these things you think you're going to stick with. >> oh, absolutely. >> you're going to be able to do. >> absolutely. >> michelle, nice, nice and we got to thank peter and alvin at une arvelolo salon. the new issue of "allure" is on newsstands now. let's go outside to rob. fantastic. >> big georgia contingent. this is lydia from marietta. you have a picture of your grandma on a roller coaster. she doesn't look happy or is she? >> she's excited. >> that's a euphemism. mom, was this your idea? >> not at all. >> a trouble maker like you, i think. hastings, nebraska, it was warm
8:37 am
still a little leftover. 77 degrees and it was hotter than that in many spots. fire danger, record warmth with wins getting into chicago. could see temps over 60 degree there and big warm-up for the east coast, as well. it's chilly right now but from the 30s to the 50s, a 30-degree warm-up tomorrow for new york city. sunny in texas. >> crowd running away from me it's so cold. this weathercast brought to you by carmax. george, back inside to you. >> that's great. we're very busy. >> you guys are very busy. >> oscar dresses. i like that one. that's a good one? we're here with the dog breaking the internet right now. there's dario the leonberger
8:38 am
dario is so chill right now but he was not chill out on that floor. >> ah, no. >> does he get points deducted for that. >> he doesn't -- there's no points. it's more that the judge will not -- he couldn't really judge his movement because that was what he was looking at. he was bouncing a bit. >> what was he going for? >> well, i mean his favorite treats are freeze dried chicken hearts. i know it sounds really appealing but i think that's what the trainer -- i mean the handler might have had in his pocket. >> oh, no. >> look at that face. >> he's a little tired now. >> yes. >> tuckered himself out. he created -- when did you realize that he had become an internet star? >> oh, well, i have to say initially i was very upset and disappointed because i knew that the judge would not give him a second look after that. but it was the next morning that
8:39 am
already an overnight sensation. and i was -- couldn't believe it. >> is that his personality, just bouncy. >> that actually is. he is a very -- he doesn't look like it right now but he actually is a very exuberant young boy and he's -- >> just 2 1/2. >> 2 1/2 and for this breed it's a very young male. so 3 to 4 would be a mature male so he's still very much a big puppy. >> yeah, i think he captured our hearts because as dog owners and we're all dog owners, that would be my dog. >> yes. >> that's what it was. i know, even though i was mortified i knew part of it also is he's -- he lives in the country. he's used to having space and he had been confined for three days. we were in new york and he saw this big open space there and he thought, playtime. >> ah. >> is it true he does a mean chewbacca. >> he absolutely does. we've been saying -- we've even listened to chewbacca noises on the internet and he makes sounds very similar -- >> doesn't seem like he's
8:40 am
>> dario, you're not going to make any chewbacca noises now. >> is that when he's sleeping. does he snore? >> no, it's when he greets and just about everyone he meets is instantly his best friend and he just makes this strangest chortling yodeling woo-woo noises, it's quite unique even at the show when he ran into people he knew he was making his noises. >> a big future for him perhaps in the movies. >> yes. >> well, thanks for bringing him in. he is a doll. >> why don't you wake up? >> not happening. >> there you go. that'll do it. lyda, thank you. live in south africa at a

together. we are just four days away from her epic adventure in africa. "gma" on safari. our advance team is already there sending back some spectacular images, look at that from our drone video. just incredible. >> wow. >> i'm leaving today to travel to the other side of the globe to report on a growing crisis unfolding in africa and abc's
8:44 am
africa in bela-bela on the front lines at a wildlife preserve. t.j., who is that little guy with you? >> reporter: did you say little guy? i want to introduce you all to a friend of mine, this is choba, one of the iconic famed african elephants and don't let the smile on my face or the tone of my face fool you. this is absolutely terrifying to be standing next to an animal that weighs 6,000 pounds. but choba, as long as i don't run out of food we're going to be okay. even though these animals have been on the planet for millions and millions of years we're still just starting to scratch the surface of what they can do. not a care in the world. but it's not all fun and games for this little guy and the small group of elephants at this private reserve.
8:45 am
>> for him to reach his full size will more that double this weight. >> he is a full-grown baby. cho chova is about to be put to the test part of an extensive research and training program to determine if an elephant's incredible sense of smell could be used to save lives. >> the other ones have fabric inside that haven't been in contact with any people. these two specific ones, the guy has been wearing them inside his shirt for the morning so they smell like one of our handlers and put one jar into the lineup here and other jar i'll use to introduce to the elephant and then he has to find this jar using the smell from this one. >> make sure he doesn't peek. >> yeah, that he doesn't peek. >> reporter: but chova gets a little stage fright. >> he went past it on that one. >> reporter: he misses the correct jar a couple of times. all right. we're going to see how chova does
8:46 am
>> reporter: but chova recovered and today had about a 50% success rate. >> we trained them to check people and can check you through the bushes when there's a blood bloodhound. >> reporter: these elephants have done research with the u.s. military among others to potentially help sniff out explosives, disease and even poachers. >> working on other human elephant solutions and the idea can to take what we've learned here and use that to help save elephants and people. >> he's very responsive and does it all for a treat. >> reporter: as long as you got treats you're good. >> yeah. >> reporter: now, unfortunately many of us have heard about the plight of the african elephant. estimates say about maybe 100 a day are being poached around the continent of africa. not the case here in south africa necessarily but it's certainly the case. some are thinking it's getting to the brink almost of extinction maybe within a couple of decades in some countries in africa so we hate to hear that but chova is doing well
8:47 am
chova, shake. chova, shake. chova has stage fright. chova is in good shape here as long as he's got food. 6,000 pounds is a little intimidating but a gentle creature. >> i've been following you living vicariously through you on your instagram feed. so far you've been to so many places already and talking about the importance of wildlife conservation. do you have a favorite part so far? >> reporter: a favorite part so far, you know, it was very cool to see the baby rhinos the other day. that was great. saw a baby elephant the other day. on the baby rhino part, the own recently i saw it was because its mother had been poached so that's unfortunate, what's happening to the elephants here has been really unfortunate. not the case here in south africa but, rohrback, where you're going to tanzania, the problem has been awful in terms of the numbers of elephants that have been decimated by poachers out there. >> we need to keep these
8:48 am
well and populated so so important to shine a spotlight on all this. t.j., anything i should pack? >> i'm just enough underwear. i didn't count out right so i'm having a problem right now. >> oh, no. >> must be friday. >> everybody has such a case of >> yes. >> the whole show. >> maybe it's malaria pills. our "gma" safari coming up tuesday. you don't want to miss it. >> we'll pack some for him. >> i'll bring some for him. we're celebrating 60 years of disneyland next. i want to see you smile so, let me get this straight -- u.s. cellular has the phone you're looking for,
