A documentary about the final chapter in a legendary career. This is the story of Kobe Bryant's Farewell.
We've all heard the legendary stories of Kobe. We've seen the glamourous championship victories and highlight plays. This isn't one of those. This is a story about what it means to rise to a challenge that should be the end and instead write your own conclusion. The entire world was telling him it was over...but the Mamba had other plans.
Special thank you to Christian Jessup for writing an entirely original soundtrack for this project. You can check out more of his work here:

Man I can’t thank you enough for this Trice and damn good work brotha💪🏾💯
@@willwhite247 I appreciate you!🙏🏼
We still here kobe black mamba foreva love you bro😭
Rest in peace to my favorite player ever. I was a fan for all 20 years and when that helicopter went down it felt like I lost a close family member. Our daughters were the same age. He is the only celebrity whose passing brought me to tears. The world misses you Black Mamba!!!
Amen 🙏 🙏
Only famous person I've ever cried for as well... We (Los Angeles) loved this man with an intense passion.
This fukd me up 4real him passing.. rip mamba out! 🙏
Me too bro.im a class of 1996er also.and born an raised 30 minuts from chicago..so u know my standards r high. Kobe continued to play the way it was supposed to be played...with the upmost respect and dedication.god bless him, gianna2.and his family....RIPMamba#8#24
Well said, he will always be beloved.
that michael jordan speech on kobe bryants death is the most heart rendering moments ever
Even 23 years after winning title #6, Jordan continues to be the gold standard by which basketball excellence is judged.
He’s still out there, picking it up for all us slackers.
🕊️🐍
Yes his spirit is definitely alive💜💛and❤️🖤💚#happy birthday in heaven Kobe 💜💛
I will never see another Kobe Bean Bryant in my lifetime. Many will be close but not close enough. ❤️🙏
That’s what my generation said about Michael Jordan. And I’m here to tell you, that two generations were so damn fortunate to be able to witness, two shooting guards, in back to back eras with the same instincts, mentalities, and desires to do nothing but win. We use to say there will never be another Michael Jordan. Well we were one ring off, and Kobe Bean Bryant was damn sure the closest thing we will ever see, and I’m saying it now and I don’t care who says what, in my eyes they were equals. Period. It’s been a year and I can’t watch highlights of him, or Gianna, or MJ for that matter and not start to tear up thinking about Kobe, GiGi and Vanessa and the other families that lost loved ones. I was just in Barnes & Nobles and went to buy his books and I couldn’t, I had to walk away....that’s what a winner and a legend and his daughter and her friends, gone too soon can do to a grown man
Not in this lifetime he’s gone but he did it the best way it is,legendary
Amen to that 🥰💜💛and❤️🖤💚 that's why I liked him so much yes he was very talented and very handsome but also very loving and genuine 💜💛 forever
@@r6-AgentScorpionParkerKRider23 are you speaking for your whole generation because I never said that, I don't think Jordan is the greatest, It's Magic Johnson, and Kobe proved to be better than Jordan, Kobe prove he didn't need Shaq, Jordan always needed Pippen. Think before you speak, the whole generation did not like Jordan, it's a shame the Jordan fans got to keep coming on Kobe stuff, even though you act like you're being respectful, but you're still throwing Jordan all up in Kobe, so go away troll, stay away from Kobe stuff.
@@hashmoncrief6965 Why do you sound so angry. Sure, MJ needed Pipen just like Kobe needed Pau. MJ & Kobe both had Phil to coach them and to help keep egos in check. Bottom line, basketball is a “TEAM” sport unlike boxing, tennis, or golf. No matter how great a player is, that player ALWAYS need a good supporting cast.
“Heroes come and goes but legends are forever” that saying gets me going everyday in my life.
🕊️🐍
I’m a huge basketball fan and I’m more than 100% sure a lot of other basketball fans worldwide still find it very difficult to accept the fact that Kobe is gone. He impacted so many lives in a positive way inside and outside of the game of basketball!
Very true
Im 50 plus years old now....i grew up in the era of Magic,Bird and others..then came MJ.. Kobe was the player I was able watched the most.. still hurts to know hes gone....was looking forward to hear his HOF speech...RIP Kobe
I agree after he retired, I was looking forward to his HOF speech. We all know he would have taken some funny shots at other players.
So am I...Kobe for me the best of the best
Man I still cry like it just happened yesterday... The only person I never personally knew... To make me cry.. I watch him come into the NBA and I watched him retire.. He was my lil brother in faith... To his wife and kids and all of Lakers Nation... Y'all all in my prayers... God bless.. Kobe and gigi and all those that went to heaven with them.... Salute!!!!.. ✌️
Kobe may be gone from us, but his legacy lives on and he now lives on. Excited to meet you one day Kobe. You’ve inspired us to give 100% in whatever it is we do, because we are capable
Yes we are because of the mamba mentality he set for us ... Rip 🙏.. good comment bro and we'll said right on
This man is always gunna be legendary
Oh, DEFINITELY!!!!!
He gave everything to the Laker fans, for that we will all be forever great full. Thank you!
🕊️🐍
Thank you Kobe growing up in Los Angeles my childhood happiness was cuz of you no matter how my life was falling apart kobe was and forever will be my idol thank you kobe for giving this hopeless boy hope Rest In Peace
I will miss him for the rest of my life💛💜
We shouldn't be sad that Kobe is gone instead we should happy that Kobe was there :)
that shoulder injury really forced him change his jump-shot.. if you're a Kobe fan and been watching him play for a very long time you can tell his jump-shot has changed over the course of his career. it really saddens me to see him go out like that. but what more can you ask. this dude really gives his heart and soul to the game of basketball. when he said " my mind can take the beating but my body cannot take it anymore '' it hits me. I knew it was the end of his legendary career.
The amount of pain he played with shows you how outstanding of a basketball player he was! On and off the court he was outstanding and loved by all!
What an amazing player, father and husband and your beautiful daughter !! You'll always be missed, Rip Kobe and Gigi, 💛💜🌈🙏
Amen🙏🏼
My favorite athlete of all time. Still can't believe he's gone 💔 😢 😔 RIP to Kobe, GiGi, and everyone who lost their lives that day.
This has got to be THE GREATEST DOCUMENTARY I have ever seen.
Thank you!
Fully agree.
That last season was probably the first season I saw him laugh and smile with the opponent before and after games.
As one of millions of fans,he’s always be remembered from our hearts forever,the rush the excitement the entertainment
Man seeing him and Sager hits you hard. RIP to 2 legends.
When he listened to the doctor talking he’s thinking like I’m about to be bench but he prove he’s not,legendary
Kobe was giving a gift before he left and that was his daughter the one who love him the most - love you and her forever
I absolutely love this man as if i knew him .What a legend !!! KOBE BRYANT YOU ARE AND WILL ALWAYS BE EVERYTHING AND AN AMAZING MAN!!!! WE LOVE YOU KB
This was one of the best documentaries (besides Kobe’s) that was done beautifully. I watch him as a young boy coming to Los Angeles and seen him mature into a man. Basketball was his job and understood where he was coming from. It's was sad to see him retire, but he knew it was time. Retirement looked good on him!! Winning an Oscar who would have thought Only Kobe!! Thank you for all you have done for Los Angeles, you built Staples Center. RIH.💜💛🙏🏾
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed.
Im still in shock since from his passing. That was a terrible day. His daughter and the other 7 people who perished. Kobe was my favorite athlete of my lifetime. I never played basketball but I played Soccer. I wore his number 8 and an elbow band on my left arm like he did. I still cant believe he's gone.
The one thing we all truly loved about Kobe is his Competitive nature!!
Facts!
I love Kobe Bean Bryant #GirlDad thank you for sharing this documentary about the final chapter in a Legendary career. As we all know this wasn't the end of Kobe's career but the beginning of his career as a Father, Coach, Visionary Writers, Film Maker, and Oscar winner. Yes Kobe had a beautiful life and he loved every minute of it, he created his own studios, Granty Studio where he wrote stories for children about Basketball, where he created the Punies, Lily's Lemonade, all these animations stories were created to help children and help them to have a positive attitude about life and basketball in general. He even wrote the Punies which is an animation story about begin Bully, how to handle begin Bully. Kobe did a lot to help and inspire the next generation of Basketball players, he created the Gym called The Black Mamba and Mambacita gym to help underserved Boys and Girls. Kobe was very successful in everything that he sat out to do,. He was a successful Basketball Coach of a team called the Mamba's, a girl team that his 13yr old daughter Gianna played on. The team was called the Mamba's and was never defeated while Kobe was the Coach. His daughter Gianna, was called Mambacita and you put the names together you have Mamba and Mambacita title of the gym father and daughter, Coach and lead Player, Gianna. Kobe never forgot about the little man along the way, those who were Homeless in L.A. he was very passionate about that created a foundation to help the Homeless along with his wife Vanessa Bryant. Kobe was destined to do greater things than he did while playing Basketball. He will always be remembered and loved because he showed more compassion about his work ethics and his love for the game of basketball which was his first passion. He never failed to set an example for the next generation to follow, he paid the way, and loved children, and always gave more to help those in need, he always gave more of himself than anyone will ever know. We will always love him and be thankful for his Legacy.
This is beautiful and I can tell it came straight from the heart💜. I don’t want to say he is gone because he isn’t, he might have inspired millions of people around the world but that is only scratching the surface of what his legacy can and will do in the future. Also, the other people’s lives matter too so Rest In Peace to them and prayers for their families🙏.💛💜24♾8♾2 🐍 (Pretend the snake was purple.)
Yup this is beautiful that’s why we love kobe aside from his greatness in the basketball court you know he is a really good person wish he is still here :(
As a Pacers fan I always looked forward to watching Bryant take the floor. #Respect!!
Brought tears to my eyes. Great video!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed.
You should be dropping those tears and honor the soldiers that scarified their life for your pathetic life crying over a guy that plays basketball and made millions…
@@TheBoxster1998 THAT WAS TOTALLY UNCALLED FOR! WE ALL LOVE AND HONOR OUR MILITARY! IF WE WANT TO LOVE AND HONOR THE LEGENDARY KOBE BRYANT WHY SHOULD THAT UPSET YOU SO MUCH????? YOU MUST BE ONE MISERABLE INDIVIDUAL THAT CARRIES ALOT HATE IN YOUR HEART. I FEEL SO SORRY FOR YOU!!!!
Cant stop tearing up whenever its about Kobe..I miss you Kobe..
I love you Kobe!! My hero❤I'll never get over this 💔💔
Our hearts are broken forever cause you left us un announced such a rush that we only had glimpse of you and your greatness.
Brings tears to my eyes...what a great human being. He will always be alive in our hearts and mind✨🙏💛
As a kobe fan, thank you for this documentary. This documentary brings back pain we all felt on 1/26/20. 8x24 always and forever.
He was the biggest part of my childhood. I couldn’t wait to watch him play night after night. VHS tapes after tapes. Coming home after work rewatching the games till 1am. The championship runs, the screams, the joys, the tears, he made us feel alive. Forever loved. Thank you Kobe.
Every night Kobe steps on that floor I knew I was gonna see greatness... The amount of energy n push in every game... Win or lose I knew I was gonna be entertained... I wish to see that again someday with the Lakers... RIP GOAT!
RIP🐍🕊️
RIP Kobe ,Gianna and the others lost in that tragedy still missed a great deal.
What an awesome way to memorialize this man. I've never been a huge basketball fan, but even I'm in awe of his accomplishments. May he rest in peace.
I appreciate your comment! Thanks for watching!
We were the same age I fell in love with him as a fan he was and will always be my favorite player ,I was watching sports center when I saw the ticker I immediately lost my emotions ,he was a special player and person
Mamba forever!✊🏻🖤🐍💯
🙏🏾 2021 The best in the game.R.I.P Kobe and his daughter and the other beautiful people who lost there life.
Thank you for saying that Steven. A horrible tragedy that we all wish didnt happen. But we must remember all who we lost so tragically.
@@gsmoneygsmoney1479 you right about that
He was my all time greatest player, he inspired me a lot.
I miss my hero! damn it makes my heart melt ❤️🙏
i miss shouting "kobe!" when he shot fade away ... he's the big part of my basketball career .. salute you mamba ..
This is of the best documentaries I have seen on Kobe Bryant
Thank you!
Without a doubt and I couldn’t have commentated it better...I’d would’ve had to hold back a lot of tears...great job man!
@@r6-AgentScorpionParkerKRider23 I appreciate the support! Glad the project touched you the way it touched me while making it.
@@TriceOfficial you deserve 10000000000 million subs no cap
@@tomatosauce1343 It's a marathon! I'll get where I deserve to be, no doubt! Thanks for the love.🙏🏼
This is a remarkable tribute to an icon
Thank you!
amazing how he even got up 50 shot attempts as old and beat up as he was. he is truly a warrior at heart
Thank you for portraying Kobe Bryant not only as a legendary basketball star but also as a human-being who did so many great things off of the court in this beautifully put together documentary. He’s a true role model we can all look up to, and your commentary really contributed towards the overall inspiring message. I kept getting goosebumps while watching this, in awe of everything he’s contributed to so many people in his lifetime. I especially liked the fact that you ended the documentary by stating that the path to accomplishing our goals isn’t easy or pretty, but ultimately worth it, like Kobe showed us. Definitely became emotional watching this, but I know I will definitely revisit this video in the future. Rest in peace Kobe and Gigi 💜💛
Damn, I miss this guy everyday. My hero since childhood. Thank you for this documentary 💜💛
Glad you enjoyed!
We miss you KOBE! 💜💛 😭
I surprised my Lil brother with a ticket to see him play in his 4th to last game EVER. I didn’t plan on it but I wanted to let my lil bro see him in person before he took his bow at the bittersweet but beautiful end in L.A. and we got pics and vids and also put our phones down to live in the moment. And I remember as we made our way to our seats from the top to the 11th row to the floor. And then saw the players warming up. Then I turned from 26 to a little kid as I said “ omg there he is there’s Kobe!!.. it’s Kobe!” Then years past he lives his live as we did ours. Then in late January of 2020 I get a text from my Lil bro with the news and he said his first thought was of this trip. I’m glad we got to see him my hero my idol. R.I.P to all those lost on that day. Thanks for the memories Kobe
Who knew tht he only had 4 years left on this 🌎 earth, why? We will never know why god chose him and his beautiful daughter GIGI, we love and miss both of yall so much. R.I.P KOBE AND GIGI. THE BLACK MAMABA AND MAMBACITA FOR EVER IN OUR HEARTS.😞😔😞😔🙍💔💔
We will Never know When it's Our time too go. That's why you enjoy Life while Your still Here and Don't sweat The small Stuff.
2021.. Im so glad i had the chance to meet him..never gonna forget that day.. RIP Kobe..God bless your soul 🙏🙏🙏
Goat 🐐. My favorite athlete of all time. Always looked up to him. Missed.
🕊️🐍
I have been blessed to have lived thru some of the greatest athletes Kobe included. He will live on FOREVER.
Never was a fan of him as a player but he was one hell of a mentor for the younger guys in the league. A real OG that actually knew how to appreciate and help young talent instead of just hating like Shaq and most other old heads
He really embraced the role of a mentor later in his life. You never would have guessed it when he was younger, but towards the end he really invested in the next generation.
@@TriceOfficial definitely. He really did love the game. On a separate note, this was a great documentary. Don't think I comment much on your uploada but I haven't missed a single one yet. Hope your channel blows up soon! Cheers!
Thank you for the support! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Ya
I said to myself I would get emotional watching this. I've said to myself I'm done feeling sad that Kobe's gone. But look what we have here. I hate you for bringing tears in my eyes again. But thank you for celebrating Kobe. There will never be another Kobe Bean Bryant.
I appreciate your comment! Believe me, it was an emotional project to put together, but one thing I'm learning is on the other side of grief is the comfort of knowing someone made such an impact on your life that you were willing to grieve for them in the first place. I'm thankful for the lessons we can take from Kobe's life and the impact he had on so many during his time. It's inspires you to do the same for other people around you.🐍🕊️
Same hard to fight back the tears.
This made me cry. My favorite player of all time. Mamba forever.🐐🐍LAMVP#8#24
Kobe was different and he's someone I relate to a lot. He was tragically killed but a great Basketball Legend.
And in his last game, he scores 60 points in spectacular fashion for the win. The energy that was in that building was remarkable, you could feel the electricity that night. Kobe was entertaining, entertainer’s one last time in L.A Rest easy CHAMP
Just..... Thanks mamba. Love u Kobe!!😊 my second fave player ever after a.I. but man the memories are once and a lifetime. U can now rest in power with ur baby girl g.g. love y'all forever!!
This was definitely without a question one of the best documentaries I’ve witnessed in honor of the Black Mamba! Masterfully done and loved every minute of it! Continue to rest easy, Kobe Bean Bryant! My favorite basketball player of ALL TIME‼️ 💜💛🙏🏽 🐍
I appreciate the love! Glad you enjoyed it.
MVP! MVP! MVP! MVP! rest in paradise 🙏 showboat
The lessons learned in putting 110% of your heart, soul, and passion into your craft. That will be how I’ll always remember Kobe and help continue the legacy.
That's a fact!!
In death, he has transcend! Rest in Love my Hero!

Kobe Bryant my favorite player of all time not because he was amazingly skilled and gifted. But his will determination and motivation to be the best version of himself make him my favorite player of all time.
It felt so unreal to see what had happened to him and his poor daughter...has to be one of the most tragic moment's I've ever seen in Sport's in decade's...Kobe will be missed.
Lakers beating my sixers in the finals was when I fell in love with basketball. Kobe,even though it’s not what I wanted thank you
Since Kobe Bryant passed away the lakers never been the same I knew this kid was gonna be something special in the NBA When the 1st time I saw him and met him This was a good Man With a good heart Who loved his wife and his daughters Rest in peace mamba

Glad you enjoyed!
Very well done. It isn't easy because it's not supposed to be, Kobe would have it anyother way. Thank you for taking the time to make a great video and pay respect to a legend that will NEVER die. Also well stated, we not only witnessed his last game vs the Jazz, we witnessed "a capability we all have to tackle even the most impossible of challenges."RIP Kobe Bean Bryant.
Thank you.🙏🏼

Well done who ever did this video! 19:00 “to this day it’s hard to believe he is gone” 😢 😢 i never support the Lakers but he was my favorite player of all time RIP legend.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
@@TriceOfficial I feel we all lost a little bit of magic when he left us. You did a fantastic job w this film.
@@caramelcandy5147 I agree! I appreciate the support. I have a new docu-series about Kobe releasing on my channel now! Episode 1 just released last week.
I miss him so much as I miss my childhood.
What a wonderful story. Thank you for reminding me how special Kobe was. He will never be forgotten.
Well done. Thank you so much. Kobe will forever live in our hearts forever.
No doubt. Glad you enjoyed!
Great job bro, thankful to have seen Kobe’s last game at the Madison square garden, forever my fav player, my goat 🕊
Glad you enjoyed! Very cool you got to see his last game in The Garden, that's a memory you can hold onto forever.
I miss him💛
Brings tears to my eyes gone but not forgotten RIP My Idol 🐍🙏😔
Amazing tribute🔥🙌 There will never be another Kobe Bean Bryant👑 RIP LEGEND
I still can't believe Kobe Bryant is gone man.... I loved Kobe as a basketball player. I admired him for the person he was off the court. I defended him till the deaths with friends who hated him. He wasn't perfect and held himself accountable. He overcame many obstacles. He inspired me. And does after he's gone. I'll never forget January 26, 2020 because I lost a huge part of what helped me grow into the man I am today. And then to find out his daughter was on board with him literally crushed my heart into pieces.... I know i never met Kobe or Gigi but being from Los Angeles and being a Lakers fan my whole life, Kobe played a HUGE role in My Life.... the Goods, the Bads, the Ugly times, ups/downs... etc. #MissYouKobeAndGigi 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
