TMZ: Kobe Bryant killed in helicopter crash

Did I hear that right from the Sheriff Department? There was actually 8 or 9 people on board?

 

Sounds like she was about to accidentally say Knicks and then tried to morph it into the Lakers. So ended up saying Kniakers.

 

It's 9 people now? Jesus...

 

Sounds to me like Los Angeles Nakers. Are we classifying these pronounciation errors as racism in 2020?

 

Malakas, no offense, but is this really the time for all this?

And everyone else joining in.

 

no one is dumb enough to use the n-word like that on national TV, especially when talking about a person like Kobe’s death...c’mon now

whatever she said might’ve sounded like it, but please

 

I know some of you are really sad and upset and grief does not bow to logic, so I dont want to get into it about the man. Funerals are about the living. The dead don't care anymore.

Its weird that people care more about celebrities they've never met than their friends and neighbors, but that's just the world of celebrity we've created.

I understand people who dont like him and not liking him being retconned into a saint. I understand people who are upset about his death not liking that people don't like him.

However, I do have to say that flying your own helicopter or is basically the rich guy equivalent of riding motorcycles without helmets in terms of risk. Though I'm sure like most of the residents of Malibu, Kobe would have been shocked to learn that he wasn't destined to live forever.

Sad for Jelly Bean who lost his son and granddaughter both at once. That has to be a terribly hollow feeling, like everything you get out of bed in the morning for was just erased.

Sad for all the people who've lost family to the coronavirus in China, too.

 

That's the thing man...his numbers are part of him. Just like any good and bad thing he did. You can't take just a part of him. I think that's all Malakas, I and a few others wanted to say. Nothing disrespectful.

 

It's the manifest.
Maybe some people didn't board the helicopter in the end.

 

9 people on board holy crap

some other victims:

Wow, didn’t think helicopter like that could carry 9

 

Its 2020, people are getting more sensitive. Pretty sad

 

Glad to know "darling" is a trigger word.

 

This is unreal
Unbelievable

His daughter as well.......just heart breaking.

I pray for his family.

 

When it comes for someone telling her to “get in the kitchen”... yeah it is, but you already know that.

 

Looks like this one can though

 

Man, I really hope it’s not his entire family. Not that I want anyone to be gone.

 

So Kobe owned the chopper? Was he a pilot too or did he have a personal pilot? I don't know what the stats are, but choppers scare me more than planes, hot air balloons, and even skydiving.
