Good morning. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:07 | |
It's Saturday the 7th of May. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:08 | |
I'm Ricky with Saturday's Newsround. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:18 | |
First, huge wild fires are continuing in Fort McMurray | 0:00:20 | 0:00:22 | |
in Alberta, Canada. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:23 | |
No-one's been killed but many parts of the city have been destroyed | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
and officials say the fire could double in size | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
in the next 24 hours. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
People who live there are leaving, but the fires have meant one | 0:00:34 | 0:00:37 | |
of the roads has become too dangerous to travel on. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:40 | |
Hundreds of sick and injured servicemen and women | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
are getting ready to compete in the Invictus Games, | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
which start this weekend in Florida in the US. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:54 | |
One Team UK competitor is former guardsman Lamin, who was | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
injured in Afghanistan. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:58 | |
I've been to meet his 12-year-old son Musa who is going | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
with him to the games. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:02 | |
A message? | 0:01:02 | 0:01:03 | |
Oh, from Michelle. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:04 | |
The Invictus games already has the royal seal of approval. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
Be careful what you wish for. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:09 | |
Even the US President Barack Obama is ready for action. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
Really? | 0:01:11 | 0:01:12 | |
Please. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
Boom. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:19 | |
The games begin on the 8th of May in Orlando in America and will | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
see injured servicemen and women from all over the world go | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
head-to-head in a whole host of different sports. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:29 | |
Prince Harry came up with the idea of the games two years ago. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
12-year-old Musa's dad is taking part. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:42 | |
Lamin lost both his legs and an arm during the war in Afghanistan. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
When we were just sitting down and watching football, | 0:01:45 | 0:01:49 | |
he came in with his wheelchair, he came running fast, | 0:01:49 | 0:01:51 | |
and said, "I'm going to be in the Invictus games!" | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
How difficult is it for your dad to get | 0:01:54 | 0:01:56 | |
around everyday? | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
Life is hard for him because, you know, he doesn't get to | 0:01:59 | 0:02:06 | |
do most of the things a father would do with his son or his daughter. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
He's just laying down. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:10 | |
He needs help to travel around. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
He should be helping the children and the wife, but | 0:02:12 | 0:02:14 | |
instead are helping him. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:15 | |
He feels vulnerable. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:19 | |
Why do you think the Invictus Games are so important? | 0:02:19 | 0:02:23 | |
It's so important that we can help the wounded and the hurt | 0:02:23 | 0:02:26 | |
to know that they have a meaning in this world. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
Not that they're just hurt and they can't do anything. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
So, Musa, there's one last thing for us to do, isn't there? | 0:02:30 | 0:02:38 | |
Should we wish your dad the best of luck? | 0:02:38 | 0:02:40 | |
Let's go. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:41 | |
BOTH: Good luck, Dad. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:42 | |
Boom! | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
Finally, to some fantastic pictures from the deepest place on earth - | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
the Mariana trench. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:50 | |
It's about seven miles under the Pacific Ocean | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
and because it's so deep, not a lot is known about the area. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
Cameras have captured creatures like jellyfish, | 0:02:55 | 0:02:56 | |
ghostsharks and rabbit fish. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:58 | |
We're back right here just after midday. | 0:02:58 | 0:02:59 |
