Kobe Bryant dies in helicopter crash/ClutchPoints.com
Kobe Bryant is among 5 killed.
Blog King, Mass Appeal
LOS ANGELES — Kobe Bryant, an 18-time All-Star with the Los Angeles Lakers, was among nine victims killed Sunday afternoon in a fiery helicopter crash in Calabasas, California. He was only 41. Kobe’s daughter, 13-year-old Gianna, also died in the explosion. Rumor has it the helicopter plunged 2,000 feet per minute after the engine caught fire. The chopper was also flying in foggy conditions that local authorities considered dangerous. Kobe’s quietus comes just 24 hours after Lakers forward LeBron James passed him for third place on the NBA’s all-time scoring last. Prior to the Lakers’ 108-91 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers, James inscribed “Mamba 4 Life” and “8/24 KB” on his sneakers as a panegyric.

“It’s another guy that I looked up to when I was in grade school and high school,” James said earlier in the week. “Seeing him come straight out of high school, he is someone that I used as inspiration. It was like, wow. Seeing a kid, 17-years-old, come into the NBA and trying to make an impact on a franchise, I used it as motivation. He helped me before he even knew of me because of what he was able to do. So, just to be able to, at this point of my career, to share the same jersey that he wore, be with this historical franchise and just represent the purple and gold, it’s very humbling and it’s dope.”
King James then added, “Kobe’s a legend, that’s for damn sure.”
Kobe is a former league MVP, an Olympic gold medalist and 5-time world champion. He leaves behind his wife Vanessa and their other 3 daughters — Natalia, Bianka and Capri. RIP Black Mamba! You’re gone but not forgotten. Heaven just gained a Hall of Fame shooting guard.
One more thing… a Chamberlain Heights cartoon predicted Kobe’s helicopter death 3 years ago.

Nah, this seem like a set up
23 years ago today, Kobe Bryant made his first NBA start.
Today we remember the man, the Mamba, the Legend.
Gone too soon. #RIPKobe #Mamba4eva
They are basically fried pork chops now 🤣
We are not promised another day. Please seek and find Jesus Christ while you still can. 🙏
RIP guy who settled out of court on a sexual assault case for over $2mil and publicly apologized to the victim. I feel sorry for the mother of the child.
Sad but what about the other people who died? aren’t they important too? there are people who will cry for Kobe and his daughter but shred a tear for a family member. We put theses stars in a God like position.
He probably had dirt on the Clintons.
Hired the wrong pilot. He should have told Kobe it’s too foggy and dangerous and canceled like other helicopters did that day. No way Kobe would have risk people’s lives
Just a reminder to never become to comfortable and always respect mother nature and machine. All the money in the world couldn’t save him that day.
The pilot is ISIS member
Its going down for reaaaaaaaaal..
Helicopters dont fall out of the sky from fog. The weather was not the cause of the crash
RIP:
Kobe Bryant
Gianna Bryant
Ara Zobayan
John Altobelli
Sarah Chester

Something just DOESN’T set well with ME on this tragic and unfortunate lost of lives, especially without knowing the MENTAL state of mind of the pilot to fly in those type if weather conditions, being highly experience as it was reported. This sounds BOTH, fishy and puzzling at the SAME time.
I feel sorry for each one of them. Because they pretty much died a hard and painful death ! My condolences for all the families of each person who loss there Life !
