don teague reports. >> reporter: by day it is one of the busiest airports of the world.y had a ball racing in wheelchairs, shining each other's shoes, playing on the p.a. system now their film "stuck" aptly named, leaves some to wonder -- >> i can't believe there wasn't someone walking around at all. >> if this were staged on a set i would be laughing. that staged in a public arena, costing money for all of us travelers. and i don't care for it at all. >> reporter: for their part airport officials claim they had their eye on the pair the whole time but even they couldn't help being slightly amused. dfw released a statement saying at no time did the filmmakers' activities present any level of danger or threat to flight safety. and by the way, they also picked up after themselves, including the restroom. the airport did admit the video exposed lapsed security in their restaurant and bar areas, where the men appeared to help themselves to a cold beer but in an age where regulations, fees and delays have made catching a flight unbearable these guys made the most out of missi

>> cbs' don teague for us in dallas this morning. don, thank you. wednesday was the worst day wall street has seen in nearly a year. the dow, nasdaq and s&p all fell more than 2%. joining us from the new york stock exchange is liz ann sonders, chief investment strategist for charles schwab. good morning to you. >> good morning to you. >> we mentioned the market down 2% yesterday. the worst single-day drop since au august. the factors driving the drop yesterday, are they long-term factors, do you think? >> no, i don't think so. i think maybe the jobs picture which you talked about is the longer-term factor. but you've got issues in japan with the tsunami and earthquake. that's the third largest economy in the world. huge disruptions to the supply chain, particularly in the auto industry. we have very severe weather in the first part of the year that contributed to the weak economy. and then of course high energy prices which fortunately have come down. but certainly acted as a tax on the consumer. and a lot of those are not necessarily long-term fact
