00:00:32
and ready to start this week off strong
00:00:34
all right tomorrow is election day in
00:00:36
the US so the next two episodes will be
00:00:39
election themed special editions
00:00:41
examining America heading to the polls
00:00:44
today though let's start by checking in
00:00:46
on the country of Spain which is
00:00:48
recovering from what their prime
00:00:50
minister says is the worst natural
00:00:52
disaster to affect the country in recent
00:00:55
history more than 200 people have been
00:00:57
killed hundreds more still missing this
00:01:00
after storms concentrated over the two
00:01:03
river basins and produced walls of water
00:01:05
that overflowed Riverbanks catching
00:01:08
people off guard late Tuesday evening
00:01:11
and early on Wednesday CNN's atika
00:01:13
Schubert has more on the
00:01:16
situation in a dystopian scene of
00:01:19
Spain's deadliest floods in decades
00:01:21
dozens of cars and debris are piled on
00:01:24
top of what was a railroad in eastern
00:01:26
Spain with a Year's worth of rainfall
00:01:29
plummeting down in just hours on Tuesday
00:01:31
hundreds of people have been killed
00:01:33
according to authorities and the death
00:01:35
toll is only expected to rise the
00:01:38
extreme weather has caused a surge of
00:01:40
water to break Bridges damaging homes
00:01:43
and cars along the way with the floods
00:01:46
turning gray roads into a muddy Brown
00:01:48
These satellite images taken less than
00:01:50
two weeks apart show the sheer level of
00:01:53
Destruction the floods have left behind
00:01:56
but now armed with broom sticks and
00:01:58
shovels locals have been coming in
00:02:00
droves to clean up the streets some tell
00:02:03
us how they turned up just to help we
00:02:05
wanted to help because we know there's a
00:02:07
lot of people and suffering so
00:02:12
we told to our friends and we decided
00:02:16
to bring clothes and everything and with
00:02:20
water there have been widespread
00:02:22
concerns about official Warning Systems
00:02:24
many residents saying they were alerted
00:02:27
too late
00:02:30
the storm hit in the morning but the
00:02:32
water didn't get to us until 8: in the
00:02:34
evening yet nobody warned us nothing
00:02:38
nobody
00:02:44
cared at 70 years old I had to go with
00:02:48
these old clothes to change but I
00:02:50
haven't even been able to take a
00:02:55
shower this Children's School was also
00:02:58
affected by the tragedy its interior
00:03:00
severely damaged you can see just how
00:03:03
high the waters were more than chest
00:03:05
High higher than a child and this is a
00:03:09
school all of this equipment we are told
00:03:11
was brand new and it's been completely
00:03:14
destroyed by the mud and the flooding
00:03:16
from the river Spanish prime minister
00:03:19
Pedro Sanchez has called this Spain's
00:03:21
worst natural disaster in a century and
00:03:24
EU officials warned of The flood's Wider
00:03:27
implication a tragedy like this one is
00:03:29
not just a Spanish one it really affects
00:03:32
all of us in in in Europe in the wake of
00:03:35
the destruction the Spanish government
00:03:36
says it has deployed more than a
00:03:38
thousand soldiers to help the clean up
00:03:40
and rescue efforts but as more rainfall
00:03:42
is expected in the coming days
00:03:44
meteorologists say this human-made
00:03:46
crisis is only going to get worse next
00:03:50
we get a bit of food for thought from
00:03:51
one of the greatest athletes the world
00:03:53
has ever seen Superstar gymnast Simone
00:03:56
biles and her Olympic teammate Jordan
00:03:58
Charles I caught up with them recently
00:04:00
to feature them in our new CNN series
00:04:04
Visionaries by now you likely know the
00:04:07
story as young girls Simone and her
00:04:09
sister Adria spent time in foster care
00:04:12
before being adopted by their
00:04:14
grandparents Nelly and Ron biles whom
00:04:16
they now call mom and dad Simone began
00:04:20
gymnastics at 6 years old bursting onto
00:04:22
the world scene in 2013 before making
00:04:25
her Olympic debut 3 years later in Rio
00:04:28
at the age of 19
00:04:34
all right speaking of youngsters I had
00:04:35
to spin through the old CNN archives
00:04:38
2017 no and Simone you shared um what
00:04:41
you would have told your younger self
00:04:43
you said if I could say anything to my
00:04:45
younger self it stopped being so stuborn
00:04:47
um because I was a very stubborn kid um
00:04:51
very crazy too so so I think that kind
00:04:54
of halted a bit of stuff but I think it
00:04:56
turned out for the best with everything
00:04:58
that's happened since that seven years
00:04:59
later here yes what would you tell
00:05:01
yourself now still I feel like there are
00:05:04
times where we give a lot of push back
00:05:07
because we're so afraid of what's going
00:05:09
to happen so to just not be anxious and
00:05:11
to relax a little bit obviously there's
00:05:13
more that goes on behind that but we are
00:05:16
so grateful to be in a position where we
00:05:18
have amazing resources to help us um so
00:05:21
it's just like for me now it's just
00:05:23
being vulnerable and asking for
00:05:27
help Simone's close friend in teammate
00:05:30
Jordan Childs is a two-time Olympian in
00:05:32
Tokyo in
00:05:34
Paris now at the age of 23 she's found
00:05:37
herself Center Stage like never before
00:05:40
including beside Simone on the gold of
00:05:43
her America Tour post
00:05:46
Paris Jordan what would you tell your
00:05:48
younger self my younger self uh I
00:05:50
definitely could say just to understand
00:05:53
the word no I did have a lot of times
00:05:56
where I would just say yes to everything
00:05:58
and being able just to follow the path
00:05:59
that you wanted to go in and not really
00:06:01
what everybody is creating for you um
00:06:04
and always just let people in I think
00:06:06
that's where the help comes in the play
00:06:08
cuz I when I was younger I did not want
00:06:10
help from anybody um but just you know
00:06:12
to really look back and be like okay
00:06:14
your journey and your path is something
00:06:16
that you should write for yourself and
00:06:18
kind of just let it ride in the way that
00:06:20
you want it to ride and you know I look
00:06:21
at my life as puzzle just put the puzzle
00:06:24
pieces in the right spot and just let it
00:06:25
all create itself so I'm happy that now
00:06:28
where I am now I'm able to actually say
00:06:30
that cuz when I was younger I think that
00:06:31
was something I you know I was silent so
00:06:34
I couldn't really speak how I wanted to
00:06:35
speak that's powerful yeah the the
00:06:37
vulnerability comes into play for sure
00:06:40
10 second trivia what US president is
00:06:43
featured on the dime Franklin D
00:06:45
Roosevelt Abraham Lincoln George
00:06:48
Washington or Grover
00:06:54
Cleveland if you said FDR you are
00:06:57
correct the 32nd president of the United
00:06:59
States has been on the front of the dime
00:07:01
since
00:07:04
[Applause]
00:07:08
1946 today's story getting a 10 out of
00:07:10
10 when is a dime not worth 10 cents
00:07:13
apparently when it's worth half a
00:07:15
million bucks because it's missing a
00:07:17
single letter our Jeremy Roth
00:07:19
explains take a look at an ultra rare
00:07:22
dime that just sold for half a million
00:07:25
dollar let me explain normally the
00:07:28
ubiquitous 10cent piece is well a dime a
00:07:31
dozen so to speak nothing special but
00:07:33
according to auction house great
00:07:35
collections this 1975 dime is a very
00:07:38
rare exception indeed why because of
00:07:41
this the absence of a tiny letter s that
00:07:43
adorns all dimes struck at the US proof
00:07:46
mint in San Francisco see there it is
00:07:49
right there great collections says the
00:07:51
sess dime is infinitely rarer with this
00:07:53
error it's certainly more interesting or
00:07:55
should I say
00:07:57
interesting in fact it's one of only two
00:07:59
examples known to exist and was
00:08:01
purchased by an Ohio family in 1978 and
00:08:03
held for almost 50 years before being
00:08:06
consigned and garnering more than 200
00:08:08
bids ultimately selling for a record
00:08:10
setting
00:08:11
56,000 and change see what I did there
00:08:15
all right Superstars time for the best
00:08:17
part of the show you shout out time now
00:08:20
