It's July 4th and among the most popular fireworks being set off are roman candles, which shoot exploding shells into the sky. You're supposed to put them on the ground to launch, but some people have misused them, leading to disaster. And now that we're in beach season, it's important to remember that more than 100 people die in the U.S. each year due to rip currents. When you see someone struggling in the water your instinct is to jump in to help - but that has led to a phenomenon called "double drowning." Plus, lots of people are also traveling by car this holiday weekend and you don't want something like this happening to you. A 74-year-old woman was driving home after playing slots at a casino. Her car stalled and caught on fire, and when she tried to walk for help she got lost in the woods for days without food or water. She spoke with Steven Fabian about how she survived. And if you were on a sinking ship what would be one of the first things you would do...well, if you're an influencer you take a selfie, of course! As Les Trent reports, a party cruise on a yacht off of Miami didn't go quite as planned.
