disney-abc domestic television] this morning on "today's take," natalie gets an emotional reading from the long island medium, and selfie center. which famous trio took the most important selfie of the year and back for more. golden savory wrestling superstar john cena co-hosts again. all that and more coming up right now. >> announcer: from nbc news, this is "today's take" with al roker, natalie morales, willie geist and tamron hall live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. >> welcome to "today" on this tuesday morning, december 29th, 2015. al along with natalie, dylan and tamron is off and our friend john cena back and he picked this.

and ray charles is timeless. >> "mess around." >>the big bold and savory was from yesterday's cooking segment. we were makeing a casserole, birks bold and savory and sounds like john cena, big, bold and savory. >> from now on you have a new nickname. >> thank you, appreciate it. >> could be called a lot worse. >> i know i have been. >> hey, okay. i love this story. last week this scout leader attacked by a black bear while he and his three scouts were hiking in new jersey. well, scout leader entered a cave where the bear was likely hibernating and the scouts called 911, and these kids are so impressive. >> unbelievable. >> take a listen to this. >> 911. where's the emergency? >> my scout master went into a cave and a bear is in the cave with him.

because of where the bear, is or is he too injured to get out? >> i think the bear is on top of him. my scout master just suggested that we get food to put the bear out. do you want us to make a signal fire? >> if you guys can start a fire. >> 911, where's the emergency? >> splitrock reservoir, blue trail. i was mauled by a bear. >> where are you bleeding, your leg, arm? >> left arm, left leg, neck and head. >> guys, on three, everyone's gonna yell hello, can you hear us. >> can you hear us? i see the helicopter. >> all right. he sees the helicopter. alive. you love you guys. >> wow. >> that's so unbelievable. honor. >> totally. >> for being able to be so cool, 911. >> and i think that right there is what saved his life because there was no panic. they just knew what needed to be done and execute it had. >> true scouts through and through. >> scouts through and through, like academies like west point, they often look for qualities like an eagle scout because of

collected. >> were you ever a scout? >> didn't make it all the way to eg. it was extremely difficult. i kind of fell off with the knot-tying stuff. quite early. >> can you make a fire with a stick? >> i can make a fire. it involves gasoline. >> i think most us can do that with gasoline. >> yeah. >> a match. >> if you will. >> taking two stones together doesn't work. >> if you had gasoline. >> absolutely. >> speaking of under fire, pouring gasoline on the fire this, morning we had the reporter on from al jazeera who reported on this story, as you know. there's been these reports that have linked pain to using performance enhancing drugs, specifically human growth hormone and it was reported on al jazeera and there's timing

back to 2011 when an unpaid intern charlie sly made claims that shipments were made to peyton's wife ashley manning. peyton manning has vehemently denied all of these. >> nothing has been said to her or have i ever taken, absolutely not. she may have her personal business. >> manning says that he's never taken any of these substances. he was treated at the guyer institute. he had a lot of surgery and recovery time so he stays the story is completely fabricated. interesting though that the interview with carson this morning, the al jazeera reporter now says the documentary is never really pointing the finger at peyton, instead saying specifically the only person named was ashley manning, though

athletes using performance enhancing drugs. so i think it can be inferred by that reporting that that's what people are going to make the connection. >> but if you listen to the interview, it sounds like she's walking it back. >> backtracking a little bit. >> take a listen. >> two quick things. let's assume that it was sent to mrs. manning. aside from the recanted statement of charlie do you have specific evidence that peyton manning himself has ever taken hgh? >> we've not said that in the program. >> you're not even alleging peyton manning took the substances? >> the only allegation in the program from charlie lie is that growth hormone was sent repeatedly from the guyer to ashley manning in florida. >> so it sounds like your documentary doesn't have any evidence against peyton manning. >> we're not making the allegation against peyton manning. >> well, meantime, the intern charlie sly has also recanted and according to one report sly claims that he was badgered into talking, these videos that were made of him talking and was in

any coherent statements at the time of the video recordings. i was asking you before we came on the air with the wwe policy is on performance enhancing drugs. >> yeah, we have a p.e.d. policy instituted in 2005 and '06, randomly tested all year. all upstars undergo the tests. we love our sports and want to keep our sports pier and whenever we here someone is trying to gain advantage which is why they are performance enhancing drugs it becomes a wildfire and in this documentary you basically have a giant door of speculation that has been opened. >> right. >> you have nothing proof positive. they say this was sent here. that's what we know. you can link all the dots if you want and you can come to all these speculation conclusions if you want. >> right. >> but it is just that. >> but it's very damaging though. >> absolutely, sure. >> when you make those kinds of allegations. >> here's the thing about that, once those allegations are made you can't take them back and the athlete has to spend the rest of

questions about something like that or trying to prove their innocence in many cases. >> a lot of times it puts that doubt in people's minds, whether it's proven or not, and it seems unfair. >> and you heard him get most choked up -- when peyton was asked the question, what about kids who look up to you? it's unfair for his name to get associated with this if it is just an allegation and now kids are questioning and putting together his name with hgh, and it's just not fair for a role model. >> the peyton manning question is a little bit more spectacular because it's now a wide-range media story but all the time i'll walk into a room. the first thing everyone says is, wow, he's big, he must be doing this. >> right. >> there's -- it's just a very, very difficult thing because as you said we have a lot of families and kids and you want to be that role model and i worked hard. started lifting weights when i was 12 years old. haven't stopped since, 38 and 39 in april. one of the things that the best can you do is, know you're going

every drug test, pass every drug test and do the best you can do to spread the good word of those people who follow you and peyton manning's performance certainly speaks for itself. his candor on and off the field certainly speaks for itself and see where this thing goes. right now i don't think it's anything more than speculation. >> great perspective. okay. >> speaking of that, let's go to a selfie perspective. >> okay there you go. buzzfeed. >> okay. >> that took a turn. >> thank you, guys, like i said, the check has been cashed, posted the 20 most important selfies of 2015 and we'll take a look at a few of them. trio of kim, kanye and hillary clinton. attended a fund-raiser for hillary in l.a. >> we're supposed to guess. >> that made it a little easier. >> because i -- i did so bad on the pop culture stuff yesterday i had to gain my points back right now. i saw through all that and read the answer off the prompter. >> that's all right. >> okay.

sorority girls at a diamondbacks game, seemed to be paying much more attention to themselves. >> no idea what's going on the field. >> love the face she's making. >> that's okay. >> selfies in proses. >> never ate the chili dog. it was just for the picture. >> we have a selfie of two canadian guys who rescued a bald eagle and for their reward they were granted the ultimate selfie. not too many selfies with a bald eagle. >> that's a selfie you take in two seconds and let go. >> selfie you may want to take in two seconds and get out of dodge. my wife is giving birth right now selfie. yes. >> i don't know how i feel about that. >> his wife was in labor with their daughter eva. >> if i was the wife, i think that's a little perturbed. >> the guy is smiling and the lady not so much.

>> we've got a space station selfie. >> the great thing is you can say that's anybody. >> didn't you do something like that once. >> i did do the photos when you did the charlie chaplin. >> great selfie and great view as well. >> al, you gave us a selfie as well. >> that's right. my family, my son nick went to slope away camp for the first time this summer. >> that's a great family photo. >> a great moment. >> king of selfie. >> and so nice to see you chose the one with your family. >> al is always very good. learned to take more self which is my family. >> otherwise you're in the pictures. >> i'm always the one. >> my favorite, of course, earlier this year, i had the opportunity to climb up on top of the st. louis arch. >> wow, that's crazy. >> you don't see quite the perspective but that down there, yeah, that's the mississippi river. >> if you kept sliding would you slide right back down to the ground. >> if i didn't have a harness

edge, yes. >> myselfy was actually savannah took the selfie. we were so excited that adele was here, she's in the background, you can see her all the way back there, too nervous to go up to her and say hi. >> i didn't even see her. >> right in front of the mississippi river. >> as far away as you can get. >> there,isn't a selfie of me but a selfie nicole took. his name is winston, he's 8 weeks old, so cute and i love the lady in the picture and i hopefully will get to know what soon is to be man's best friend. >> so cute. >> so cute. >> and little airport will ensue. >> yeah. >> everywhere and doing stuff and it will be instant. >> it's instant bonding, i'm telling you. >> just like yesterday, today is my chance to get to just -- >> this is becoming ridiculous. >> the wwe smack-down.

nutrition and do stuff. that's pretty much about it. >> and you'll get ripped and have six pack abs. >> you'll be surprised at the results you get. make good choices and do stuff. >> my dad asked me yesterday, are his hands huge, like do you just sit there and lift weights with your hands. >> very, very large. >> hugely embarrassing thing. >> go ahead. >> crush me. >> excuse me. >> you know what they say about big hands. >> speaking of seven minutes in heaven, you also did this,. >> that was a great transition. >> you also did that. >> you remember that when you were little. >> what was that? >> "snl's" mike o'brien, a web series. >> myself and mike o'brien in a closet. >> is that what happened in the seven minutes in heaven, that's that game. >> he went for broke right there and had to apologize because he might have stepped over his boundaries a little bit. >> you're not that into that? >> you know, i think the
