I don’t know why I keep putting myself through these Kobe videos. The pain hits me differently on every single video. Edit: To the people posting negative comments under this post and slandering Kobe’s name, nothing but love to y’all. No hate on my end.
i feel that. i've been watching these for like 2 hours
Yea you guys were real close.
I feel u. I been watching all kinds of videos and interviews since sunday. I wasn't a big kobe fan cuz I'm a kings fan but I'm a sports fan and a dad and this and hurts bad.
Facts
Same man. I'm just trying to process all this, but it just keeps hittin me in waves.
When Rick says he answered the phone and his boy says you’re alive! That hits hard bruh.
Go to see Rick and Kobe still connected .
rick fox is now like a living ghost. everyone thought he died.
EXACTLY!!!!!
I was choked up too when someone wrote Rick was in the helicopter too. Imagine how his daughter felt when she read that.
I cried when Derek Fisher mentioned his kids called and begged him not to get on the airplane in response to Kobe’s death. They didn’t want their dad to suffer the same fate as Kobe potentially dying in aircraft crash 😭😰😢.
Reason why Kobe’s passing feels extremely tragic and unreal because he’s the last person you could ever imagine this happening to
Very true
Yeah you figure as often as celebs and athletes fly someone was bound to die. Maybe some guy in the G league on a 2 way contract. Maybe the last guy on the bench....but Kobe Bryant? He supposed to be here, he supposed to be the one writing R.I.P Enjoy greatness while it is here cuz we also would never imagine K.D or LeBron or James Harden and it also has not happend
RealChristianSimon YES! I think that is totally correct. I just keep watching these videos and just keep thinking about how it seems so unreal.
RealChristianSimon I think it's because his death was sudden and after only three years of retirement, he was looking forward to doing great things for youngsters.
Yeah
I’ve never seen a celebrity’s passing have this effect on people. Grown men crying...it’s so beautiful that Kobe was loved this way.
He wasn’t a celebrity, he was an athlete.
Zachariah Van Ruiten Yes he’s an athlete but he’s also a celebrity. The definition of celebrity is a famous well known person. You may have never watched Kobe play basketball but you still know who he is because he’s well known.
You forgot Michael Jackson lol. it's also even more shocking because athlete celebrities don't...EVER...die so of course it has a HUGE effect on everyone. He was a legend. R.I.P
Kimberly DaDuchess you tell em girl boy thinking he too smart 😂
Dennis Ventura IKR!!
No one deserves to die the way they did, RIP to all the victims and the game will never be the same without the Black Mamba 🐍 Until we see you again Kobe.......somewhere
@Moeshaak Shakur in English please.
To all the people that are hitting dislikes on every comment section all across KZhead on Kobe Bryant's death and everyone else who perished, I only got 6 words for you. FUCK YOU and go to hell!
U need to go to a lot of these prisons in the united states. You would change that statement real quick.
@@damedrops8197 thumbs up or thumbs down helps on KZhead algorithm to show more videos to your taste and liking also.
@@damedrops8197 I know it's hard and you're grieving but don't mind the haters. Kobe never was bothered by them. Be strong.
D-Fish said his kids called him and asked him not to get on the plane. He did a 180 and went home to his kids. That's a father. Much respect bro. If I ever met him in person, I'd shake his hand and talk about that. Nothing NBA-related. No autograph asking. Just that moment.
he’s the best.
Sad times, but good to see Rick Fox as they initially reported he was on the plane too.
Ms. Perfectly Imperfect it was a helicopter
Does Rick have anything to do with Kobes shoes?? The company??
lol k
@@turanmeteyavuz9878 rick was a teammate on that 2000-2004 lakers team and he and kobe were so close.
How did this get 7 dislikes? Are people that vicious and insensitive? My gosh!
I’m so glad Rick Fox is ok. I wish Kobe, Gianna, and all of the other passengers survived 💔😭😭
Why God take then away so soon? Why 😥
Every body wish that.
Jason Ma imagine yourself at a garden, which flowers would YOU choose. :(
I love to flop James even if they did they didn’t have time it happened to fast
Wish time travelling was possible 🙏🏻🙏🏻
That earpiece falling is just Kobe messing with his good friend Fox.
I don’t know why, but this made me smile 😊
Me too, i hope Kobe is around.. Wtf is going on... I tot it was a prank news while having my Chinese New Year in 🇸🇬
thanks for making me chuckle as i cry
What is the purpose of those earpiece anyway?
Great comment
I never met kobe, never seen him live, not a Lakers fan....but this is destroying me because deep down inside he was my idol. Damn this hurts
itchy AIDS shut the fuck up
@itchy AIDS He was not found guilty. So we gonna ahead and let you be the judge instead right?
Wow
Stay strong man. Keep his mentality inside you.
itchy AIDS Please if you dont have anything nice to say, dont say it. Please delete your comment. Idc if your a jordan fan or celtic fan this is really disrespectful. Let people mourn and let them rest in peace.
Shame on whoever reported Rick Fox was on the helicopter. We lost lots of lives that day. We put this man's family through a scare.
agreed but i guess no one really knew the truth. Truly a SAD moment in our Nation!
Thank TMZ. They're evil.
wasn’t even a plane fake news so stupid these days
Those reporters should be all fired!! They literally out his family through hell thinking he was one of the victims. that's just messed up.
You can thank tmz for that shit.
As a Celtics fan, as a kid I remember those gritty dark late night games vs. The Lakers when all the lights were on with Kobe having the ball. NBA Classics
Same against ai and the kings series, was in highschool watching the games in the pool hall. Kobe was a big part of my childhood.
Celtics Love Hated him the MOST. RIP TO OUT BIGGEST RIVAL. I went and watched his last game in the garden when I heard the news....
shaunbir klair : as a Laker fan we love to hate the Celtics , but we respected them , Bird is still one of my favorite players of all time . This tragedy is so tough for us Laker fans . It's going to take a long time to get over this . RIP to all that were on that flight ......
Celtics fan as well...
This comment hit the nostalgia perfectly. I sat by myself watching those games with cold sweaty palms because of Kobe
Oh my heart, the reliefs that Rick's family felt when he answered their calls. I can't stop thinking about how many time Vanessa tried to call Kobe and Gigi. My god, I really hope Kobe and Gigi watch over her and give her strength.
Amen
Vanessa never loved Kobe. His money, yes. Even his own parents said she's a gold digger and didn't attend their wedding. You can hate it, but it's the truth.
@@nothingleft3473 Amazing analysis. Should I file this truth to the national hall of truth?
@brajamtho757 Hey, don't worry about the troll. Don't let them waste your time.
Nothing Left Vanessa loved him. She had four of his kids. She had the chance to divorce and pretty much take everything back when he was being unfaithful. But she chose to stay married . Parents can mis judge and be harsh
I still can’t totally believe this. My heart hurts for Vanessa. Kobe inspired me more as a father than a player. Gigi was so young, her life barely started. RIP.
And just what did Kobe inspire you to do? Fly your kid in a helicopter on a foggy day, just because you feel you are too good to sit in automobile traffic?
bernard vorce no he inspired kids all over the world to play basketball
bernard vorce wow...what a piece of sh**
bernard vorce what exactly are you clicking on these videos, watching them, looking for comments and replying in this way for? What does it achieve and do you think it could be better achieved in another way.
@@MrBernard0911 Just.... Just STFU
These two men were there with Kobe when the Lakers won the 3 peat and formed a dynasty. RIP Mamba and Gigi and the other victims of that fatal accident, and may God bless their families 🙏🙏🙏
A dynasty? Like they were royal rulers of a nation? It's just a stupid game! A Fucking GAME! It's not important!
@@MrBernard0911 why are you here then?
D Fish was with Kobe for all 5, a Laker legend himself
Kobe, Derek Fisher, and Rick Fox - three of the classiest guys to play in the NBA
@@MrBernard0911 - theres nothing special about the "royals"...
I keep saying to myself that this can't be real and I'm just dreaming
Unreal!!
Right!!! It’s like a bad dream you just want to wake up from
Straight Nightmare.
Yeah. Childhood ended for me Sunday when I heard. I’m 36..... Was on the court coaching my daughters team when I found out. I couldn’t finish practice.
Same here!
Rick Fox actually scared me too I thought he was gone to
crazy the media had so many stories going around. they're so pressed to get new coverage they'll take anyting and run with it.
Gone TOO, not to. And fuck Rick Fox.
@@MrBernard0911 he's a human, be respectful
bernard vorce why the harsh words? He doesn’t even know or care to know who you are
bernard vorce some of you on the internet so fucking WEIRD bruh I swear
If Rick's family called him so many times Imagine the people who tried to contact Kobe and the other passengers on the helicopter and they don't pick up the phone especially Vanessa ❤️💔💕
Ice Cube said that he called Kobe to see if Kobe would respond hoping that it was a hoax. Sad so sad.
Gamer_Archer 19 8j
Rick Fox is such a good genuine person just the way he talks and expresses himself , so sad genuinely.
Straight up mamas
rick fox is a busta
Rick Fox was a certified a-hole. He deserved to get uppercutted by Doug Christie back in 2002 when the Sacramento Kings was very good and a title contender. I dont feel sorry for Rick Fox, he's an overpaid, non-skilled Hollywood model wannabe.
Am I the only one who is still in denial that he's actually gone? i've never had this hard a time accepting something.
jake rosen me too
Cried many times, it still hasn't sunk in. I don't even know how this is possible.
You're not alone. I'm genuinely devastated. I still can't believe he's not here. 😭
guess you were never Paul Walker fan then.
Get over it. He was a man , not a God.
Everyone please listen. Dont feed the trolls. Dont ever respond to them and I promise they'll go away. Dont respond with an insult or any comment at all. They love that negativity and reaction.
Facts, I seen the Trolls & Bots delete multiple comments. Thats something ive never seen before.
I wish more people understood this. If everyone would report them instead of respond we would have less negativity.
💯 you cannot glorify ignorance.
So true I pray for them and keep it moving they don't know no better🙏🙏
Tears, your right . Prayers for everyone of them and their families and friends
Living in LA. The whole city was heart broken. We grew up celebrating this Legend. We celebrated on the streets, caused havoc ... and to find out of his death the way he died with his beautiful daughter😞 💔 The whole LA county was shattered and you felt it... LA will forever be Mamba's City. RIP Kobe, thank you for all the joy you gave us💛💜
Fester MP right hard to find someone like him in decades. He works for lakers for twenty years, the longest in nba history. Him and magic are both one of a generation
Spot on Kobe built staples and put LA on top. LA loved Kobe forever.
It's been 2 days since this happened and I still can't believe this is real. I still hope this is a dream and I haven't woken up yet. Kobe meaned so much to me and many other people and athletes. He will always be one of my favorite players#24
The World will never be the same. At the same time, it seems to have brought Family, and Friends of us all closer together. Refocused on the things that really matter in this Life. Love.
We need to love each other before the illuminati eliminates us
Exactly what our good Lord said, Love your neighbor. Do it people. God Bless.
P.E.A.C.E;for People Everywhere Are Coming Enlighten. TNS...
Amen May God bless Kobe and his family. And all the families who lost loved ones. God forgive us our sins and make us better people!
@Herr Wolf Your just looking for a fight. No thanks! Have a nice day!
Man I can’t stop watching these videos..Why am I doing this to myself 😢
Because we all loved him man 💔💔💔😔
I WATCH HIM GROW INTO THE PESON HE WAS ON TV
We loved him
Because we are all trying to find comfort from the pain. Its like a bad dream.
Same
The moment he is holding his daughter telling her everything will be on, when he knew it wasn’t, that thought gets me every time.
If it makes you feel better the chopper was goimg 150 mph so when they crashed it wouldve been instant. Also the fact that they were in thick fog, they didnt know that they were going to die.
Ohhhhhh, I hope you're right...😭💔
@@andrewnguyen8983 unfortunately it looks like they clipped the top of a hill and fell for about a minute :/
@@andrewnguyen8983 thick fog and being in a helicopter is enough to make anybody nervous, who is to say he wasn't already comforting her
That's is well said...I think that may be true . But I dont think they knew ..it was almost no visibility.
I never thought that only an nba player would be loved as much as this. God. The whole world is in pain for the loss of KOBE😭
*loss
Kobe and some of these athletes effect more lives then anyone can imagine . We grow up watching some of these guys play and they help us through our lives more then they know . Kobe was more then an athlete he made millions of people feel like he was part of our lives like family through the tv . Rest In Peace Kobe and his poor daughter and to all the other innocent people on board , accidents like this are terrible and all we can do is support those we love and anyone that knows these families personally can support them anyway possible . Rest In Peace !
“ ... Do more for other people than we do for ourselves ...”. Such a powerful message! Let’s not forget it!
Service is more important than success. Indeed.
Still in disbelief... 😭 R.I.P. Kobe Gianna and the 7 other life's that were lost Sunday Morning
Glad to see Rick fox IS ok.
I took my family to staples center today and it was so beautiful to see so many people from different countries to come out and pay their respects for the tremendous loss of so many sweet souls on that Helicopter. We will see u again in the resurrection my brothers..😔💕
I'm understanding Kobe and his daughter went to church in the thay morning and took communion he was devout Catholic.God bless their souls and the power of the Father and the Son and Holy Spirit be with all the families affected.
Luis Hernandez they did? I hope he and the others are in a good place now.
@@coolgarrett17 watch your Language the almighty could have called for you my brother is a sad day to fall in the hands of a angry God ask him to forgive you for that remark God don't make no mistakes he knows best
@Don please with all that God talk like you know him or her or whatever personally. God ever talk to you no! the better thing would be to say fuck Catholic, all they do is cover up they molesting of lil kids. fuck Religion!
@@coolgarrett17 can't serve 2 masters. Can't be on satan's payroll & expect God to keep you spiritually protected.
Garrett Cook, you can't do that to DIOS or GOD
What gets me emotional is that ive seen so many grown men crying and just letting the tears flow the past few days. Ive never seen this before. Theres something about Kobe's death that affected the whole world. Its so devastating. To know his daughter was with him is just even more unimaginable.
I think this one hit a lot of men differently... ive been watching Kobe interviews, seeing and reading about things he has done, and i love him even more.. Men see themselves in Kobe, as a great father as a protector as a truly loving person and knowing that this was the one time he could not protect those around him, especially his daughter, they are really feeling that... it is tearing every father apart inside.. it tearing every man up..this one is tearing all of us up inside.
Oh yes, the men are broken.
Kobe was a juggernaut of his time. His emotional impact on the culture could never be emulated. He truly was the detention of a legend
Kobe is here, his presence is so vivid. He is a hero and his legacy will continue. I want to believe that their souls are persisting in peace with the infinite love. 🙏💖🏀
Acts 2:38 All must REPENT and be BAPTIZED in JESUS CHRIST name.. what's the key word?
Johnny Hinton what are trying to say, guy?
@WIL SUPER A hero is defined as a person admired for great deads or fine qualities. You can google it. "The word is used in the sports world to mean an extraordinary player or athlete."
@WIL SUPER Everything I said was a fact. Sorry if definitions upset your little fantasy world... rme
@WIL SUPER Yes, yes and the reason that women dropped the criminal case was likely because she knew she would lose but pursued the civil case. I'm just curious if you think someone that is rich, that would dole out millions just to make the case stop to avoid as much media coverage as possible, is necessarily guilty? Kobe only ever stated that he thought it was consensual. If you believe he did it, that's fine. If he is not someone you admired for his one the court play or his personality or charitable works off the court that is fine to. That still doesn't refute the fact that millions of people did admire him and looked up to him. Perhaps some could forgive his moral scrupples in cheating on his wife. Some can't, even if they never thought he raped anyone. Only children think heroes are perfect people. I'm very honest when it comes to judging people. I was convinced he actually thought their interaction was consensual. I could be wrong. I'm also aware that sports athletes have women throwing themselves at them constantly. No different than any other groupie. So I don't judge as harshly the infidelity. Especially knowing this was the only incident that was ever reported and that he kissed his wifes ass, and as far as we know did everything (in her eyes) to make up for it to the point were they seemed to the public to be a loving couple... So yeah, you enjoy your little fantasy world of thinking he raped that girl. I'll keep my judgments based on the things I know about who he was and not a single incident, that according to the victim, she flirted and made out with Kobe for over 5 minutes and made no verbal objections to his groping of her that lead to the actual sex. Feel free to read the court transcript and we can argue that if you really think he raped the girl. I have read both that and Kobe's initial statements.
Man, you can see the pain on both Fox’s and Fisher’s eyes. Seeing that was tough to watch. 😕
When Fisher said " it's sad that we wait for them to die to then show that full love as a whole person that he was " I know Shaq FELT THAT
Nobody has suffered more in these past few months than Shaq
@@jorgelujlrcn Because he knew he could've showed more love to kobe when he was alive
Reggaeton NewsTV also because he lost his sister as well
Shaq and Kobe had been squashed the beef
RIP Kobe he changed my life.
Kobe and Gigi will do what they love in heaven forever. rest in peace, we will forever hold you in our hearts
rip Kobe you were my idol I can’t believe it man I love you man
I started watching Kobe when they won their first ever championship with shaq vs Pacers.. since then I idolized him so much..
The world was hurt it was like I lost a family member I'm a dad I looked at my kids playing and just started crying...
@JP McCray fuck you
I’m glad Rick Fox is ok!
I'm glad to see Rick is alive because there are reporting that he was inside the helicopter to thank God he wasn't
even if you dont watch ball, you know what this man was. He WAS GREATNESS. The hard work, dedication, perseverance. no one will be the same. RIP legend
My heart continues to go to the family and his loved ones in the league. Also the rest on the helicopter, absolutely heartbreaking loss to the sports world. This sting will never go away and will take a very very long time to subside
Lord please give the friends and families of the victims strength and love during this time. I can’t even begin to imagine the pain they are going through💔
RIP Kobe we will never forget you
Legends never die
Man I honestly feel like a loved one died, kobe was always my guy, no player was better than him in my eyes......this s*** is unreal 😫😫😫😫
This feels like a horrible nightmare that we can't wake up from....So glad Rick was not on that trip.. Kobe and his daughter, the other families are nightmarish enough...
I noticed Rick try to get a word in and then the segment ended I'm glad I found his take here in this video thank you for the upload.
These interviews are heartbreaking.
Glad Rick is ok Love you man
I only knew him through watching the game. But watching every video of his since he passed, it looked like Kobe was an amazing person, father, husband, friend, and mentor. My deepest condolences to each life affected by this tragedy. God comfort each one of you and us as we remember all the lives that were lost. May you all rest in peace.
They hated Kobe when he was young. Very very complicated. Kobe didn’t have any friends but he stood for something athletes relate to immensely
I am in still so much pain. I love you forever Kobe and Gigi. RIP to every passenger. Time truly doesn't always heal.
The prevailing message through all these tributes is to love and appreciate your family. What an awesome message!
I Just Hope God's Basketball Needs a Super Star!!!!!!!!!!!!! Because he got the Greatest!!!!!!!!!!!!
He got Wilt Chamberlain years ago.
Greg Pettis stfu with that shit. Christ fled to Egypt moron.
John Bradford get over it.
Yes he was...
Greg Pettis Middle East was made up dummy. Egyptians were black as night. Moron.
*HAIKU 4 RICK & DEREK:* Through our darkest times... It shall be our Heroes who've *Kept Us Intrepid.* ...much love, d.d.w.
After watching this and shaq speaking on it. I lose it. Its thought to lose a guy that touched the entire world like Kobe. I'm at least glad to see Rick Fox as he was initially reported on the helicopter. Kobe would want us to keep our heads up and push forward😭. But I'm so hurt right now. Rest in peace to everyone on that helicopter.
Almost like Rick came back from the dead. Oh, how I wish it was the same for Kobe. RIP Brother
I can't no more this is to much for me smh i can't stop crying 2 days omg
I’m still crying
Still
It's tough losing Kobe, it still feels unreal. Watching him on the court and all the incredible memories he left behind that Laker jersey would never be forgotten. Even tho Kobe isn't here anymore just seeing the globe react to his death is some that you wouldn't have thought one basketball player can cause. And even after his death, friends and family are coming together which is showing he's still having an impact to this very moment.
When I heard Kobe died, I was devastated. When I heard that Rick Fox was also on the helicopter and died, I was also really scared and devastated. I’m glad Rick is ok and alive, but I still can’t get over Kobe being gone. It still doesn’t feel real. Kobe is the last person you’d expect this to happen to
This one hit different man I thought I wouldn’t cry as much as I been and boom it fucken it me again. I’ve been a laker for 30 years and the one dream I had was to see them in staples. I bought my tickets in November to watch them play the bucks on March 6th. I told my girlfriend “listen this is a dream of mine and if I get emotional and start crying please understand why”. That Christmas she bought me my 1st laker jersey and I explained to her I didn’t want a jersey until Kobe was retired and that was the one I wanted. I unwrapped my gift and there it was the #8... Years ago I remember Kobe saying I’ve been a Laker fan my whole life and once I put that golden armor on I knew what it meant to be a Laker and for that one specific moment that I place that #8 on I knew what he meant. A month passed by I’m watching us getting trashed by Philly and I’m cussing out the TV telling myself “Kobe would’ve pulled that game off some how and gave us the victory”. I wake up the next morning about to take a shower and I see a video on World Star saying RIP Kobe and I said to myself no fucken way. I approach my GF she looks at me and says is Kobe dead. I stared into thin air for about 60 seconds walked to my couch and started crying cause I couldn’t believe it. I told my self the jersey I got from her wasn’t going to be touched until I stepped foot into staples because that’s how much this team meant to me. As we’re getting ready to get groceries for the week I took a second and told myself fuck it this is for Kobe and I’m wearing my golden armor right now at this moment. As March approaches I don’t know how I’m going to react when I take my 1st steps to staples center seeing my fellow fans in there armor knowing we share the same bond for our team but most of all for Kobe. I just know tears will dripping down my face and I’m going to be full of emotion because of what laker pride means to me. RIP GIGI and RIP JELLYBEAN... 8/24 for Kobe and #2 for GIGI the mini mamba Bryant... Amor 🙏🏻
Wow
kobe needs to be the new nba logo. he will forever be remembered :(
No. Mad respect to kobe and may he rest in peace but him dying tragically doesn't warrant an nba logo change. Its like saying YOU should change YOUR name to Kobe Bryant to honor him.
@ Changing the NBA logo would be bad logistics. The current logo is iconic and recognized worldwide so it would not be benefit the NBA in any way, shape or form, other than to honor Kobe. If you want to honor Kobe than get a tattoo of him or change YOUR name to Kobe. What happened to kobe SUCKS and he SHOULD be honored but don't get carried away kiddies.
They should put a statue up in his honor.
i never knew how great this man and the people on board were. my prayers are with the family. RIP to a great man.
It took me until now to watch all this stuff😢 I’ve been binge watching KOBE stuff. 3 years later I’m finally comfortable to watch LOVE YOU KOBE FOREVER💜💛
One of the things I always thought about ever since I’ve heard about Kobe Bryant’s death is other legends like Tupac, Bruce Lee, Elvis, Michael Jackson who revolutionize this world came to a tragic end. It is truly heart breaking hearing these amazing stories about these people and how much love they brought to the world and from that I don’t ever want to take life for granted. Make sure to always spend time for those important people in your life and show them how much you love them and it is definitely true you’ll never know what will happen cause that person can be gone within seconds and you’ll end up living with regrets. You’ll always be in my heart Kobe RIP brotha.
And Bob Marley
Lennon. Cobain. Earnhardt....
PRINCE!!!!!!!
John Bonham, Neil Peart, Robin Williams. 3 that effected me too
Every video strikes a different cord, RIP Mamba, Mambacita and all the others on board! God bless all their souls and prayers to the families! Saddest day of 2020 😢🙏🏼
I watched all the videos about Kobe and I'm still in shock. Hurt, disbelief and broken
I keep watching the kobi videos an I keep feeling the same pain, I keep reliving this an it hurts each time, I pray healing for each family that has lost their lives ones.
I still can't believe 🙏🏾🙏🏾💔
Still doesn’t seem real...
I'm n Neverland the shit didn't happen
I know
It really doesn't. I feel like I'm watching a movie. It just hasn't registered in my mind yet.
@@slowroc sadly this is the timeline where it did
still hoping its a bad dream
I feel the energy when I go to work, watch the news, etc. Kobe has affected the world
Watching this video, you can feel the raw, heartfelt emotions bursting forth as they recount their initial reactions upon hearing the tragic news. And I’ll tell you, it brings back those same feelings when my son called me and broke the news to me. I had to be strong for him in the moment because he just lost it. His favorite basketball player of all time, suddenly taken from him - from all of us. But later, when I had time to reflect on my personal journey with Kobe and the Lakers, it just hit me like a ton of bricks and I wept bitterly. He’s gone but I’ll always have those great memories.
The cold silence in the background kills me😭😭 I can't believe this man hug your family everyday😭😭
Hard to explain the exact feeling silence gives me after someone has passed away. It's like cold silence just adds to the feeling of emptiness and someone being gone forever..
I Have To Stop Watching These Videos, So Heartbreaking... 💔
The wave of pain and anguish that so many are feeling now , after the accident is unmeasurable. Watch how Kobe Bryant’s life impacted so many people in positive ways. He elevated himself , to elevate other to elevate himself as an NBA player. This is a moment when we all can question, “What can I do, to elevate my life?” And find way to do so. My deepest condolences to all of the family who lost loved ones in this horrific accident.
Man this hurt. The world lost a real one, but he brought unity. The interviews I keep watching of him make me smile. His smile was warm. His voice was full of compassion and humility. His game was intense. You can definitely tell he was at a place of peace and wanted to be the best version of himself. He will be missed. My prayers to everyone involved. Sad sad sad day in America, January 26th. 🕊🏀👑
I was watching CNN Sunday and they came in and said that there was a report of a helicopter accident in Southern California. Minutes later, they came on and said that there were no survivors on the flight, and that 2 of the people on the flight were Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna. I thought “No way. Not Kobe”. I was in shock! I was in shock all day listening to the reports. It’s now Friday, and I’m still in shock. RIP to Kobe, Gianna, John, Keri and Alyssa Altobelli, Sarah and Payton Chester, Christina Mauser, and the pilot Ara Zobayan. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪😪
I’ve been watching the Lakers since I was in grade school. Back in the early 70s. I have had plenty of good times with friends watching Jabbar, Magic Kobe and other legends. I shed a few tears when Magic told the world he had the HIV virus. But I’m shedding lots of tears for Kobe and his little daughter. My heart aches. RIP Mamba.
Me too
You learn something new about Kobe in each video (that I've watched) and a new piece to the puzzle is added to really demonstrate HOW BIG of an influence Kobe had on people who knew him well, knew him a little, or knew him not at all - but each person shared the same feeling of losing someone important to them and as Derek said, it sucks that it took his death to really appreciate all that he has accomplished both on and especially off the court. It's been a hard week, but a very sobering one.
3 months later and I’m still watchin these videos mane my dawg Kobe really gone mane smh.. 😔😔
This is heartbreaking. “Only the good die young.”
Rest in peace kobe. RIP for you was what the net did. Peace is what you deserve now. Thank you for the memories. 🐐🐐🐐🐐
Thank u Rick Fox ur the only one I’ve heard mention all the families that were lost not just Kobe. It’s such a tragedy for everyone
I know firsthand the terror that ricks family went through in the moments before they got a hold of him and knew he was OK. I am so sorry that the rest of the families who did not get that same good news. Nothing is worse than finding out that what you fear the most in the world is now a reality. My heart goes out to all the loved ones left behind who will grieve for the rest of their lives.
Such a beautiful person with such a beautiful family..Man..I'm heartbroken..MJ was before my era (i only saw the tail end of MJ's career but i saw Kobe's entire career) so to me..Kobe is the G.O.A.T..No debating..Rest In Power to Mamba, Gianna and everybody else who lost their lives
"The Lord has given and the Lord has taken away. Praise the name of the Lord." (Job) Thanks God for the gift of Kobe and his memory becomes a treasure. Remembering Kobe will revieve the soul. RIP.
Amen
Jesus is Lord!! Amen!! 😇😇
Peter P praise the lord that murdered 9 people including multiple children in a fiery explosion. You gotta be kidding me. Use your brain man
@@Legio__X we dont know the ways of God. Even Jesus said My God, My God-- why have You forsaken me?
2020 is for Kobe. The mamba mentality is needed for everyone now more than ever. We must be the best versions of ourselves. It's all he would want
I grew up watching D Fish and Rick Fox. So many memories. It hurts to see Kobe Bryant gone. Rip King 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I’m praying for the family 😞
As a lifelong Celtics fan, I can remember watching Rick Fox crying after the death of Reggie Lewis (in July 1993). I'm also old enough to remember the deaths of Len Bias and Pistol Pete Maravich. Celtics fans know this type of grief all too well.
Rest in paradise to a legend. You’re immortal in the eyes of your fans. And the fans of basketball. Thank you for your hard work and love of a game I love so much. Shouts out to Kobe.
Rick fox I love you man..when I was a kid I saw you and Dee Brown at the Arsenal mall during a celtics event and I came up to you guys and you were like giants to me, I was so happy to see you that I had to hug you guys and you were super cool about it...when I heard that you were there I was very emotional but I'm glad at least you were ok . R.I.P. Kobe 😔❤🙏
RIP Kobe & Gigi Bryant Rest Easy 💔💔🙏🙏😢😢
I wonder when this nightmare is going to end 😢
Let’s Argue Basketball same here😔
My brain is aware of what happened but I still can't process it, idk if it's cause I'm in so much denial or shock or maybe both
Hard part of life's reality
As someone who’s gone through a tragic loss. It never ends, it never goes away. It kinda just fades into the background but the pain is always there.
publicricky trust! We all are brother 😞 sad man.
It's always the good that dies, words can't express how I feel, we all should appreciate the time we're here and not take it for granted. May God bless Kobe's wife Vanessa and children, and God help them to get through this difficult time.
Cant watch these videos anymor3... been crying for the last 15min! RIP KOBE
