    R.I.P. I hope it happened quick enough that they didn't have too much time to think about what was happening.

    This is so sad and tragic. I feel for his wife. Didn’t know the daughter was in there as well. Terrible!

    If I wasn't numb from shock, I'd take a drive to the area where the crash site is visible and grieve with fellow fans. It's a drab, overcast day, perhaps even more so because of this tragic event.

    So his helicopter caught on fire?? Fluid leak, short circuit, overheating parts? Hopefully they can find out what happened.

    How? Not sure what you're asking..

    Also..
    Footage showing him on Dec 13th being kind, helping/comforting some people who were in a car accident. If you notice the fog in that accident...
    ironically, they're saying that fog was possibly a contributor in his crash as it was real foggy there this morning and they hit a mountain side.

    I was asking how that guy figured Kobe would die in a helicopter crash. I definitely did not make that clear enough.

    Shaquille O’Neal shared 4 pics and wrote in a tweet..

    “There’s no words to express the pain I’m going through now with this tragic and sad moment of loosing my friend, my brother, my partner in winning championships, my dude and my homie. I love you brother and you will be missed. My condolences goes out to the Bryant family and the families of the other passengers on board. IM SICK RIGHT NOW !”

    Basketball legend Michael Jordan said that he was in “shock” over the death of his “little brother,” while former teammate Pau Gasol said the he was “Beyond devastated” over his “big brother.

    “I can’t, I just can’t believe it,” Gasol added.

    I like this for showing that Kobe wasn't the only victim, so many times before when a famous person dies like this, people forget about the less famous people who died alongside them.

    Not to excuse it or anything but it be because they don't really know who they are. It happens with war and when we hear about someone dying on the news. It's tough to get that type of feel for people they never heard of. One thing famous people (who use the spolight for positivity) does is bring smiles, actually show they care about others through their philanthropy and bring people into their lives. As Kobe and his family has done.

    Now because people are putting it out there more. Hearing about Orange Coast College head baseball coach John Altobelli, along with his wife and daughter are starting to have people post tributes and send condolences as well. So sad for these two families whose daughters were both teammates on team Mamba and friends as well.

    RIP Kobe, and fuck the #MeToo idiots trying to drag his name through the mud.

    I don't want to derail the thread, but the prosecution dropped the case because own expert witness, Dr. Michael Baden, refused to back up their claims about the evidence.

    Anybody claiming to know what happened in that room is full of shit.

    It was known that Kobe flew in helicopters constantly to avoid LA traffic. Dude just made a macabre prediction to be edgy, and it turned out to be true.

    Man I heard they're going in hard AF on Kobe on the popular WoC celebrity gossip forum that we're no longer allowed to mention by name on this forum.
