It’s great that they included the names of the others who passed. Obviously Kobe and Gigi were more well known, but everybody matters. All of those lives that were lost, mattered, and we should never forget their names.
Agree
I agree 🙏
It was sabotage IMO Kobe was due in court (drugs were foundin his Black Mamba supplement) Kobe was in litigation against a dangerous partner.... Using his name wrong... Explain how Kobe crashed in a CARTOON helicopter BEFORE REAL CRASH.... COINCIDENCE OR MURDER????👀👀👀👀 #RIP
Do you remember the names of everyone that died
Stupid comment
I love how straightforward and respectful he is.
He better be! The wife is sue happy!!!
@@oceansoflorewi He is always straightforward and very respectful to everyone he does videos on, that is why I totally love this channel!
I remember two weeks before the crash I was at Disneyland and I saw all the girls with Vanessa and baby Capri came to me by accident and Gigi came to grab her. I told her, “keep balling girl you’re next up!” and she had a sweet smile that looked exactly like her dad’s. I was heartbroken when the news happened and it hurt more when I heard Gigi was in the crash too
I’m a die hard Kobe fan, and the fact that him and his sweet daughter passed away will never sit right with me 🥺 I’m still crushed until this day 😢
Same even though I'm not a sports fan, i went to one of his games
What makes him gone to you...death is only what your mind makes it .. think positive..he's with his daughter and family members that passed before him.
Look Up Gematria Effect He Died The Day After Lebron (Passed) Him In Scoring Then The Next Day Kobe Passed Away
I wasn't the biggest Kobe Bryant fan but to hear about his death was like hearing that Superman had died! It was unreal and I still can't believe it happened. Life is really unfair a lot of the time. Rip to Kobe, his daughter and to all the people that perished in this horrific tragedy!
I was so devastated for his wife and girls. To lose a husband/parent is already sad but to lose a daughter/sister is overwhelming!!! RIP Kobe & GiGi❤
I was surprise by Chadwick boseman death
Life seems unfair to the unfaithful. It's actually never unfair.
As a huge Kobe fan, you hit the nail on the head by describing him as Superman. He was Superman to Lakers fans and the basketball world because he did the impossible on the court and made it look so easy, yet we knew he worked ten times harder at it than anyone else. He was bigger than life, and the fact that nine people died on their way to a youth sporting event made everyone be able to relate to the tragedy - parents, coaches, kids - whether they were fans of Kobe or not. I can’t imagine anything else ever hitting the people of Southern California any harder than this. I live in Orange County in the vicinity of where all the victims lived, worked, and played basketball, and they is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about Kobe and Gigi, and Vanessa and her girls. It’s still really hard to think about and brings me great sadness when I watch clips of Kobe playing and coaching daughter. The only other single event that this can compare to in the scope of how someone’s life or death impacted Southern California was when Magic Johnson announced he was HIV positive and when Michael Jackson died. People adored Magic as much as Kobe, and we all thought he was going to die from AIDS. I’m so glad Magic has survived and thrived. I can image what it would be like for Lakers fans to have lost both of their marquee athletes.
Life is so unfair, he was a multimillionaire and you're not 😃
The day that Kobe died was very sad indeed but the fact that his daughter was with him was even more tragic,RIP Kobe I'll never forget your legend
He caused his daughter’s death by forcing that pilot to fly without any visibility. Probably karma for the teenager that he drugged and raped.
@@nickgray6305cause you were there that day and witnessed Kobe holding a weapon to the pilot forcing him to fly against his will, right? The pilot never made the statement he was forced. You’re just trying to make statements to feel relevant. Kobe wouldn’t risk his child nor anyone else on the flight. For what? A game being held in his own stadium? One that he could postpone if need be?
You talk about karma, but your here making statements out of the side of your mouth. Wonder what karma has in store for you.
@@nickgray6305 🤡 and look at his name
@@TarotTea Like the guy above said. Looking at his username should tell you all you need to know.
@@FreckleBitches truth lol
I’ve been a Laker fan for over 60 years. My heart still breaks for Kobe and his family and the seven others that perished in this tragic accident. You did a wonderful job on this video and you are truly respectful and I appreciate that as a human being and a fan, keep up the good work. I also enjoyed your videos on Selena and Marilyn Monroe.

This is the one celebrity death that took a whole toll on me. I was depressed for weeks. One day I wanna visit the site also. He was someone I've always looked up to. And I watched gigi grow up and seeing her being trained by him. I really wished she would've had the opportunity to pursue her professional dream. Also the revine shown at 14:20 is where gigi's body was found
The most deeply sad part was his wife, Vanessa learned about it through the news station. And she is still fighting for her family today with stuff that happened that awful day.
So sad
She’s doing just fine now
That is honestly the worst. And people think it was disrespectful that the other 7 victims were named but frankly I feel they got a lot of respect because they were able to be told in private before their names were released while Vanessa had to hear from mainstream media like she was just another person or fam of Kobe
She won the 14 million dollar lawsuit against the Sheriff's Department.
@@denicebrooks7056 she settled the lawsuit for almost 29 million dollars.
I'm not Kobe Byrant fan, growing up around Chicago, I'm a Bulls fan, but, I was actually in tears when I heard that he past. It was a sad day in sports history. I can't imagine what his wife went through losing her husband and daughter. The other families get lost in the story. Prayers to them and the Bryant family. All will be missed.
It is in fact that he passed, passed away, died.
@@johnrogers9481 corny
u saw his finger on the floor at 7:34 ????
barack obama is a billionare, flys a private jet and bought a 12 million dollar house
11:09
I don’t think you realize how much closer you brought for some people even tho it’s just the crash site it was very nice to know that their was a statue… thank you
I commend the guy who took time out his busy schedule to pay homage to not only Kobe and his daughter but all of the victims who passed that fateful morning. I wanna say thank you for that brotha!🙏
Just another reason to love your channel. Instead of airing someone's dirty laundry from the past, you made it clear that this video was not about his past but about showing respect to the lives lost that day. Much respect to you.
When you make a point that the video is not about his past it actually is indicative of just that, his past.
duuude. no lie, i was happy he said he wouldnt be talking about things like that.
I agree completely. I love the fact that he made it clear this video was not about mistakes Kobe may have made in the past but about the helicopter crash that took the lives of Kobe and the others. And like he said nobody is perfect and everyone makes mistakes. RIP TO THOSE THAT LOST THEIR LIVES IN THIS HORRIBLE HELICOPTER CRASH
That's why I subscribe
Well, though he was a great player it was known that he was an asshole and you could even partly blame him why the accident happened. He doesn't take a no even if pilots are hesitant to fly, he always think he is too special to be stuck in traffic.
I work for very well trained pilots for 27 years now. And not once have they, or will they tempt fate by flying in dodgy weather. Not even when they are pressured by time or pax. And I salute them for it
Yea, I feel the pilot felt pressured to fly with Kobe being a high profile client. Costed him his life and theirs. I remember that day so vividly because the fog was insanely thick to the point I was doing about 15 MPH on the fwy until it cleared
@@remidibeatz8780 then why not fly higher? the fog is usually lower in altitude. judging from the crash site, they are really low.. even ATC say they were too low, not on radar..
@@josephsaeteurn9158 I'm no expert nor do I fly, but from my understanding the pilot got disoriented and I can see how. The fog was EXTREMELY thick that morning because I drove home in it and it was scary on the freeway so I can't imagine in the sky. The pilot couldn't tell up from down and ended up running right into the mountain.
@@remidibeatz8780 i guess this was the first time pilot has ever flown in fog? if thats the case, it was definitely a fatal mistake but i really don't think that was first time flying thru the area for them. something happened. this was experience pilot with years under his belt right? no blackbox...no one will ever know..
@@josephsaeteurn9158 Just because you've done something before doesn't mean you will always come out of it, especially against mother nature.
Lakers fan for 45 years. This hit hard. RIP Kobe, Gianna, Payton, Sarah, Christina, John, Keri, Alyssa, and Ara. You are all angels
😢
I was never into sports, but I remember feeling gutted after hearing of this. And to find out that his daughter was with him, and two other girls of the same age. I can’t imagine being the adults in that helicopter, wanting to protect those three little girls, and you can’t.
I still remember hearing about this 2 years ago and the utter shock that everyone felt especially sports fans it was jus a tragic end to a great life who had so much more to offer the world taken way too soon 💔 R.I.P Kobe, Gigi , Alyssa, Payton, Christina, Sarah , John, Keri, Ara 9 lives taken way too son 😭💔
“soon”
2 years ago already time is flying life is seriously so short :( hug your loved ones today
@@Z123z everyday all the time cause you never know when it’s their time
Z. Yes! One may finally get things together and so quickly you are fifty. Half decades fly bye..sixty, sixty five. Told u r a Senior! Sixty eight, nine 72...and realize most people die about age 76...life is over!!
It's all too much! Aging, and slow death..also a tragedy eh.!
@@johnrogers9481 R.I.P Kobe, Gigi, Alyssa, Payton, Christina, Sarah, John, Keri and Ara. You are all in heaven.
Saddest thing about the accident has to be the death of a child regardless of who's child it is may all who died that day rest in peace
And there were 2 or 3 more of her teammates on it too, gigi wasn’t only child saddly
@@sdrahcir5054 that is heartbreaking I didn't know that I'm in Scotland the news covered it but not in great detail
@@isabel3559 yeah it was absolutely terrible. The worst way to start the worst year. Still can’t believe it happened tbh…Kobe was my hero growing up fr. But yeah, still hard to believe honestly….
And cheers to Scotland Xx 🙏🏼 Lived in UK a while, love Scotland. Edinburgh especially! Massive Irvine Welsh fan 💯💯
@@davidarmstrong7628 you buffoon 🤡🤡 go ahead and remind us what crimes he was convicted of again?? I forget…🧐🧐 hmm
@@sdrahcir5054 Did you forget he raped a girl
Kobe’s death was the kick off to Covid. March 13, 2020 was when we got locked down here in Michigan. It was so tragic and sad, and then life changed forever. May all 9 victims be at peace, and May we all never forget the start of the worst year of everyone’s lives.
Hard 2 believe it's been 3 yrs now! Watching this still brings a 😢. Very respectfully done, appreciate what you guys do! Stevie Ray Vaughn, Randy Rhoads, Richie Valens, Buddy Holly and big bopper just to name some legends who've past in air accidents....just so 😔...their legends all definitely live on!!!
Don't forget Jim Croce, Rick Nelson, Harry Chapin!
2 years later this still hurts , great video respectfully done 💛 💜
U know I keep asking my self why they did they go up in the fog if it was bad an couldn't see will never know
I remember an interview with Kobe toward the end of his basketball career where he was asked about his helicopter. He said that someone advised him to get one for his daily trips from his home in Newport Beach to the LA area. He said it seemed weird at first, but that it was so valuable as a time saver. 9 people in a helicopter, that is a large one.
Thank you for taking us to that site
R.I.P Kobe and Gigi!!🥺🙏🏽🕊 And to all the passengers!! Fly high Beautiful Angels!!🕊❤️🔥
Gives me the chills to this day and I was not even a Kobe fan.
Yes I feel the same
It's really sad
gets me celebratory to this day
@@banrap9369boner
I became a big fan of Kobe and the Lakers when I was about GIGI's age even got to watch them win the Championship in Orlando back in 09' Thanks for sharing this with us!
Honestly I didn’t hear about Kobe before his death. The last great basketball star I remember was Michael Jordan - known all over the world. Was Kobe as famous as Michael in the US ?
@@CitrusandCapri Of course he was. Kobe was legendary.
Who cares
@@bigdaddytrips6197 Excuse me but I don’t think anybody was talking to you
@@bigdaddytrips6197you are one goofy looking dweeb😂
cant believe this is the dude i was admiring at the 2008 london summer olympics that was scoring and making everybody wanna watch the game here . rip kobe
I only knew Kobe as an athlete who played some great basketball. After his death I read a lot about his role as a husband and father and how much he helped children who were needy. He was a good and generous man. This was a very sad day; may Kobe be and Gigi rest in peace. Great video too!
I really admire how respectful you are of all the sites you visit.
Just keep in mind that Kobe FIRED two previous pilots, one for refusing to fly in bad weather and the other pilot for stopping to refuel.
The pilot that crashed the helicopter was probably pressured to fly by Kobe and not let him down and get fired.
So damn negative
@@anthonyramos9841 he’s just stating facts, before his death, people was wondering why he was firing the pilots for making obvious great decisions it just so happens that Kobe died ignoring the signs and condition… facts are facts, mistake are mistakes but RIP Kobe and all passengers
@@SayKai._ Idk if this is true but if so, yes I agree 🙏🏾
@@anthonyramos9841 don’t idolize him. He is a human just like the rest of us. We can learn from his mistakes, just how we can learn from his greatness
@@anthonyramos9841 this is Kobe’s fault then. He would’ve been dead way earlier
I couldn't watch the video. He was a driving force in my life that kept me out of gangs and off the streets. Thank you for posting this one. Ive been binge watching your channel for the last two weeks because your channel came up on my recommendations. Stay Grim Stay safe.
Thank You for sharing the crash site, makes me feel as if I were there to show our respects to all who lost their lives that very tragic day, thank you again ❤️🙏
Im a funeral director by trade and I will never forget the day of the crash that took those 9 very significant people. I remember my funeral home staff crying. And because I worked for a funeral firm they let us know that if the families chose our firm they’d be sending some of our finest to work those funerals if needed. Which is all I’ll say about that.
Covid shut the world down not too Long after and a friend of mine and I hiked up to the crash site a few months later when things were still pretty locked down. You could still see evidences of charring every though the city has cleaned up the remnants very well. This was before I started dating a TH-camr (shout out to Exploring with Fluffy!) and we’ve been asked so many times as well to go to the site and film. But after the time I went I couldn’t bring myself to go back. My heart hurt in ways I can’t describe being there and all I wanted to do was leave. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to take him to the site myself.
Thank You for doing what you do
@@kensleighgurske5921 it’s my honor to serve others
@@TarotTea You help families that have lost their loved one
@@HeadNtheClouds You should really get your head out of the clouds buddy. Also, try asking that question to a African American in person and see if you end up in the clouds. Lmao!
Thank you for your service in that field. Seems tough. 💜🏀💛
When this tragic accident happened,I knew it was going to be a horrible year.
RIP to all those 9 souls.🕊
This still hurts! 🥺
Kobe was a rapist whose luxury life style caused people to die. Shame on you for idolizing these kinds of people.
2020 was one of the best years of my life. Caught a minor cold in Feb. that turned out to be covid. Lasted literally 12 hours. Slept it off. Record income, top health, achieved major goals and life-long dreams came true for me. Then again, I don't watch TV or give 2 shits about celebs, so I was completely unaffected by all the leftist B.S. agendas.
No TV = Complete bliss and happiness. When you focus on your own life and not the lives of people you don't even know, you prosper big-time.
@@mrkhoros It's a false accusations. Still some people believe Kobe Bryant is the best player ever. Deal with it. So what the problem with the whole "luxury life"? It's got nothing to do with it.
@@deondreatterberry What's the problem with luxury life is, a person like him travels with helicopters while you cut back on food to pay your student loan. what a stuuupid comment tbh.
@@mrkhoros HA!!! You really believe that???!!! Really???? That's not true at all, because you sound like you're got a problem with the government and society nowadays. Luxury life???? It's got nothing to do with that. Everybody has a different life. Rich Poor = One life
This video was beautiful and done with so much grace❤️ Still so unbelievable and Heartbreaking 💔 Continue to Sip Kobe, GiGi and all the other other precious souls that died that day...we love and miss you all♥️
Thank you for sharing this. I am a huge Kobe fan and I know that a lot of kobe fans will appreciate this too. You taking the time to do this and talk about it briefly in such a respectful way says a lot about you. I really enjoy your videos and I am glad that I subscribed or else I would of missed this. Thank you again for posting this. Greatly appreciated! RIP kobe, Gigi and the others who died in that tragic. 💛🏀💜 LA loves you!
All of the People that died in the crash meant a lot to their family and friends. It wouldn't even be the right thing to do by just having statues of just the 2 of them any ways. That's just my feelings...
I agree
Definitely.
I understand what you're saying, but Kobe and GG are mostly talked about bcuz we all knew them. No offense to the others who perished
agree 💯
@@pah6539 it was a beautiful statue and had representation of the others on the plaque.
I can’t speak for the other victims families, but you make a fair point.
I was attending a church service at First Congregational Church In Los Angeles on the day this happened. The head bishop comes on stage and said I'm sorry to tell you this on this blessed day, but I just got word from one of our head elders that Kobe Bryant with his daughter and 7 others were just killed in Calabasas!! And the whole Congregation gasped at the same time and some started crying. RIP KOBE
RIP Kobe and GiGi, legends never die ❤
legendary rapist.
R4pists do!
YOUR INTEGRITY, IS SECOND TO NONE ! THANK YOU MICHAEL ! 🙏
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for making this video. My mom is one of the biggest fans of Kobe and this tragedy affected her so much. I was able to show her this video and she thought it was so beautiful. Thank you, from both of us, for the respect and care you took in creating this video💙
Well said. I am a huge fan as well and I am still speechless at times.
I'm not a basketball fan but I knew who he was. Even after 2 years it's still sad rip to him and his daughter and the other 7 victims rip 🙏 🕊
Extremely respectful and thoughtful in every way. This was really well done and to the point. Thank you.
RIP to Kobe, Gigi, John, Keri and Alyssa Altobelli, Sarah and Peyton Chester, Christian Mauser and Ara Zobayan. !/26/20 completely crushed me that day. I was heading into a movie when I got the text message. The one time I couldn't ever enjoy the movie playing in front of me. I hope the families of the victims can find peace. Also Kobe and his Wife Vanessa traveled frequently on the helicopter together. Mrs Bryant has a lot of clips of them on the helo on her IG.
It’s absolutely heartbreaking his daughter died too so young, but seeing as though she did, I take comfort in two things:
1). Knowing it was probably a comfort to both of them in those final moments knowing they had each other & they probably passed holding each other…
2). She doesn’t have to go through the pain of her Dad being suddenly taken from her…
So sad!!! 🥺🥺
I felt sorry for his widow not only to lose her husband but a child that's the worst form of pain I could never imagine that kind of pain to anyone who has to bury their own child
omg enough already there was no 'last moments' they all died instantly stop talking nonsense and have some respect
No reason to be rude. She is paying respects damn. It was and still is a very sad situation through and through. I don’t think you being rude on her comment is very respectful
@@tkoski1987 🩷😘 Thank you beautiful, I appreciate you!! 😘🩷 …. Don’t understand how my comment could’ve been taken as disrespect… & don’t know how they took that as me thinking they didn’t “die instantly” either… it’s kinda “ridiculous” my comment obviously wasn’t properly read first. Generally there are final moments before a crash 🙄🙄 Much love to you!! 💜💜
@@ladynikkie I totally agree!!! 🥺🥺💜💜
Kobe was the best man. 5 X NBA Champ, 2008 MVP, 18 X All star, and an Oscar winner. Truly an incredible talent. Really love your guys videos always respectful and informative.
Greatest basketball player of all time. Black mamba does anybody disagrees🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
@@kengraham1474 greatest Jordan mimic. But liked him anyway. Rip.
@@kengraham1474 not only is he not 1st he's arguably not even top 3 it goes 1 lebron, 2 jordan and then a massive gap. 3 kobe
@@gvgaming3603 not only you have Lebron at 1, but you also have Kobe at 3 💀. Trash list. Kobe is in the 6-10 range. Did you forgot about Bird, Kareem, Magic, etc.?
Thank you for this video. I was born in '87 so growing up in the 90s into the 2000s , Kobe was just always there. My generation saw him as a legend not just an athlete, and ill never forget coming downstairs after getting dressed, the tv on in the living room, and hearing the breaking news come on about Kobe and his daughter passing. Just rehearing the beginning of this video gave me chills all over again. 2020 ... the year no one will forget ... for many reasons
Thanx for the virtual visit bro. I admired Kobe, he was and still is my favorite player. RIP to everyone lost
May they all rest in joy. Hubris is indeed a deadly weapon. So dang sad. Thanks for showing so much compassion with these stories over and over again. Life is a beautiful gift to be cherished
I lived in Thousand Oaks at that time and it was very foggy the day of the crash. Malibu is right on the other side of those mountains so it’s common to get a marine layer. It’s very typical to seen dense fog in that open area where the crash happened. It hovers in that pocket but the 101 freeway is clears up before those mountains do. Also, the Mumba sports complex was a great place for kids. They opened their doors to students when we had the Woosley fire and had to evacuate. Schools were closed. They provided lunch, camp activities, indoor beach volleyball, gaming, you name it and they had it! I didn’t know much about Kobe but once I heard that Mumba was his facility it hit different.
Must have been helicopter pilot's first day flying
@@runningkirkwa2934 he was actually a very experienced Pilot
Such a loss...our lives are so fragile. Thank you for this solemn video.
Thank you for taking us on such a sad tragic journey, I'm not a basketball fan I know nothing about it, but I'm a dad I have 3 daughters, family is everything, keep up the good work Michael, both you and Jessica do a great job
Tragic loss and a very tragic day. Rest In Peace Kobe and Gigi Bryant and 7 others and the two girls 🕊
And REST in Peace to the 7 others two young girls
You really stand out among the TH-cam channels we follow. I'm always impressed by your narration, camera work and background music. The information you presented about Kobe and the crash was presented in a really honest and empathetic way.
Thank you Julia
I love how you two are there always respectful, I've loved documentaries all my life, im 51, the two of you are rare in documentaries. Going there, telling truth honoring the dead, always bringing new truth. Again Thank you two.
You guys continue to show your innermost class and goodness you have. Bravo guys. I live very close to this and when this happened I was on the fwy, coming home. I have always wondered how hard it would be to visit this time in history. Thank you for showing us and doing it with such class and tenderness.
❤️U
Seeing this vid while being on the East coast for a few years now was helpful to my heart. I lived in LA for a while, I’m a Cali native I lived all over the state. I miss home. Thank you for all you do!
Thank you for this video. I sense the sadness yet peacefulness around the area. My daughter was 15 at the time and loved Kobe. She named her fur baby Gigi. Vanessa my heart goes out to you and your daughters
Thanks I appreciate that you took the time to come out here so people who live far from California can watch this video and see the memorial
I remember crying after this because I wanted to be just like kobe on and off the court
Crashes occur bc of 1 of 2 reasons; pilot error or major malfunction, or both. The pilot was flying VFR(visual flight rules) so that he wouldn't have to file a flight plan and for other reasons of expediency. However, he asked for special permission to fly basically IFR(instrument flight rules) bc of the intense fog. This put him in several holding patterns at the request of the other airports, and the airspace he was entering which was very busy. He unfortunately became disoriented very quickly. It came out that the pilot nor the company was licensed to fly that chopper using IFR. Pilot error.
Agreed, pilot error, Getthereitis, and spatial disorientation. Sad, if it was a clear day like this video, everyone, including the sometimes forgotten Altobellis, would be here today. Sad, RIP to all.
So weather isn’t included in that list?
More simply put, experience and intelligence are 2 different things.
Omg!!! Let him and his daughter live in peace please!!!!
Don't feel too sad. The accident was staged. That was not his helicopter. He had to cover up his past....
So sad how he went with his young daughter, and not forgetting the other family that perished with them we don't hear as much about them but were equally important
This was beautiful and well done by you!! I dont know much about sports either but I am glad you showed us where this was located. yall do amazing videos!! I really love how respectful they both are while filming so beautiful!!
You are always so respectful. Greatly appreciated.
I’ll never forget that day. Woke up from a nap to feel like I was still having a nightmare. Rip to everyone lost🙏🏻
💔💔🙏🏼🙏🏼😢
I feel like your mini documentaries bring a great amount to closure. I’m so glad I found your channel on TH-cam. Thanks for being so respectful and so insightful and doing your homework on all the ppl you do these mini docs for. Man your Paul walker and this Kobe just bring so much light to how important these hero’s are to us. Really amazing work. ! 👊
Good morning thank you so much for letting us go on your journey .my heart goes out to all the angels we lost.praying for all the families.rip please stay strong.
Very tastefully done. Thank you for being so respectful to the victims.
This was such a beautiful and thoughtful video. I appreciate how you showed respect, while also educating us and showing us the location. I think you did a great job!
I can’t believe it’s been 2 years. I was thinking the other day it was the year anniversary. Man time flies. Don’t take it for granted.
Yeah I'm the same. I've never been a sports fan myself but when you live in LA, you can't help but breathe Lakers and dodgers. When I heard the news I was shocked and saddened like everyone else. Kobe was and will forever be an LA Icon. R.I.P. to Kobe, his daughter and everyone else who sadly passed.
Sucks knowing the legacy he made in his career and just really never got to enjoy his life as a dad and husband, gone to soon...RIP Kobe and Gigi
So sad, such a beautiful tribute to kobe, his daughter and the others on board 😢 💔
Thank you for sharing your video with kobe's fans and gigi's fans as well.....very respectful and appreciated to you ❤
This day was hard for everyone I feel..
I remember I couldn’t help but cry that night thinking one of my all time favorite athletes growing up as a kid has passed in such a tragic way.
I won’t ever forget you. I’ll continue to talk about your legacy and every day grind to the youth and my kids one day..
Mamba mentality for life!
Rest in paradise Kobe and Gigi..
Also to all the others.💜💛
That tragic January 26, Sunday I cried so much after reading the news about Kobe. I immediately when to Staples Center to pay my respects.
After know where the crash site was, I haven’t had a chance to visit. But thank you for sharing this. I will definitely do it this year. R.I.P. Kobe & Gianna.
As an LA Native and raised as a Lakers fan-I truly appreciate this video. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Thank you, thank you, thank you. 💜💛
To honour the other victimes of the crash doesn't take away Kobe's greatness. At that moment they were all together. They were all equal and they were all taken equally. The other families have to live with the fact thier relatives were deemed inconsequential.
I feel the realness in You Bro!
Thank You for keeping it Real…
Rest in Paradise
Kobe & Gigi!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
I remember meeting Kobe in Laguna CA at a gas station while he was ... Yes putting in his own gas. But, I walked over and he was so kind to chat with me and give me his autograph ❤️. It hit me hard to learn that faiteful day he died. Along with his beautiful daughter. His memory will live on in all of us. Sports fans or not. Gigi will be remembered as well in everyone whom knew her along with her family and friends. 🙏❤️
Oh, he pumped his own gas, what a great guy 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
@@dewilew2137 Yeah what a jem.
Then you caught him on an off day because he was never nice to fans nor was he nice to any employees at the best buy in el segundo where he would demand them to break release dates on items, & when the manager would finally do it for him he would still act like a complete jerk. (And this was not just once or twice. This was a few times a month for years!). But thats cool he was so cool to you.
Let him and his daughter rest in peace. No need to be harsh on his life.
@@gwenpigeon7016 im not being harsh on him, just being truthful. Like i said, its cool that he was nice to you though
I am glad that Gianna was not alone when she died....that has always comforted me!
I absolutely love your channel
RIP to the 9 who Lost There Lives ... To this day, it still breaks my heart
Kobe was and will forever be my favorite athlete ever. His mindset, especially in todays world was second to none. Never forget that morning when I found out. RIP Kobe, Giana, and all 7 other passengers. Live each day to the fullest and hug your loved ones.
such a tragic day and story. I wasn't the biggest kobe Bryant fan but I respected his game and legacy and his daughter being so young. it made me cry . the sport of basketball lost one of the greatest of all time
I just have to say that you are an amazing photographer and your such a kind soul . Thank you for doing this podcast! 💜RIP kobe and Gianna! Forever loved and remembered 💜!

So so sad
I still can't believe it
Until this day I'm shocked😢😢😢😢
Such a sad tragedy. Thank you for a respectful video, may their souls rest in peace.
I’m not into sports or politics either but it’s still so sad 😞 to hear about what happened to him and his daughter and many others that was on that helicopter
Rest In Peace Kobe Bryant aka The Black Mamba and his daughter Gigi 🙏 🌹🌹
This tragedy still hits my soul! I can't watch anything Kobe without tearing up. My they all rest in paradise
This was very shocking and unreal to hear when it happened. I’m a huge basketball fan and Kobe had such an impact on the NBA. I believe Kobe was not just a great basketball player but person too. Sadly he is no longer here with us but his legend will live on forever RIP Kobe Bryant 😥
This was an unexpected video! Done respectfully as always Michael. RIP to all of the passengers. Sad day.
THANK YOU! And.......thanks for the CC! I enjoyed your visit to this sight.......
THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND GREAT FOOTAGE MY DUDE😉💪🏽👏🏽👍🏽🙏🏽
LA girl born Lakers fan. Kobe was my all time favorite player. His wife used to shop at my friends boutique In Newport Coast where he lived. Kobe was involved in several philanthropy causes. Such a loss. RIP Kobe & Gianna ♥️
The people who respond to, investigate, recover, remove, clean up and store in the aftermath have intense jobs. Thanks for showing the site, it brings some reality to the story and people often make up crazy scenarios detached from the reality.
I was never a fan of Kobe but he is a Laker legend and had the fire that one maybe did not admire until after he retired (not trying to be a poet).
Yes. I too thought of the intense job faced here by those responders you mentioned.! Big appreciation to all eh.
I just discovered your channel I love all of your videos about these darker subjects.
You are a great story teller very respectful and I like your unpretentious unscripted style. Loving your videos!
Rest in peace to Kobe Bryant and Gigi
🙏🙏🌹
You do a great job with these videos/short films. You always seem to nail the pacing and tone, giving context without becoming overly sentimental.
