His voice could be also good for a Singer. He was always in a good mood. He was an inspiration for all of us!
It’s so sad how he was nice to everyone , checking up on strangers except the people that raised him. It must be heartbreaking for them to hear . I didn’t follow the guy’s career but after seeing videos of him thanking everyone in his final game but his parents, I was really heartbroken.
The 103 dislikes are misclicks
You did gave your all,your fans are so proud of you,your legacy will forever live on,you'll never be forgoten 💜💛
are time end bye God only
I understand the losses they wold will pray for the family of Kobe
😢😞
Those contemplating to have an abortion, listen closely to what Kobe said – calling an unborn baby a blessing from God. Honor such a man by following his example of loving the most vulnerable member of society. May he rest in peace.
We will all miss Kobe's Koolaid smile and the sparkles in his eyes when he talks about his families and the Love of Basketball.
Happy Journey Kobe and Gigi and the rest of the love one that were lost in the triage accident.
May they be all at peace, and there families be guided and protected.
I’m crying but laughing cause the part where he says about Gigi saying oi I got This is funny
Is there any other better ways the governments and Aviation Industry world wide would be able to join forces and recommend the installation of safety tools, parts and equipment to all airplanes? This is because many lives can be saved when panicking moments of airplane crush begin. The one to five minutes of detection of engine failure or some parts of airplane failure that will lead to the crash, will be used for evacuation without injury or death.
One: There should be easily deployable and ready backpack parachutes next to each passenger seat.
Two: There should be prior education on how to use those parachutes and how to fast exit the airplane during emergency leading to a crash. This is important because their lives depend on this education. It is my recommendation that it be taken seriously.
Three: There should be an easy hind exit that can automatically drop down or easily accessed with an independent power source switch just incase the main airplane source of power supply malfunctions. In this way those who are able to make it out, can survive the crush.
Four: Newly flying passengers should attend the classes about airplane`s emergency Exit-flights for survival.
If the news is true, about Kobe`s helicopter hovered for a while before it crushed, then it tells me that Kobe and the entire crew, would have exited the plane through the hind special door with some easily deployable parachutes (if they were available to them and if they were informed about the evacuation process). This because their airplane was hovering low (according to the witnesses from the ground). If there were easily deployable parachutes, they could have used them to land safely on terrains or trees with a few scratches which is better than dying.
I wish this message could reach those powerful people in politics and Aviation industry to try and make some few substantial changes in each airplane more especially Installing Special Hind Exits and Easily Deployable backpack parachutes next to each passenger and a special Technological Equipment that will alert the pilot about a specific malfunction of the airplane that will shortly lead to a crash and time left before the crush. In this way the pilot will announce the evacuation plan since everybody onboard has already been educated on how evacuate the plane.
This is a primitive suggestion from my part but I believe that some lives can be saved if every airplane could have a special hind door like that found in the US Army Helicopters and other big Amy Airplanes.
Five: There should be free or government subsidized sky diving Organizations that offer sky diving lessons at cheap costs to the interested citizens who take flights regularly or intend to take flights in future in that way they can overcome the fear of diving from an airplane when alerted in the airplane in less than 3 minutes before the crash. I don't expect everybody to survive but those who will try their luck using the evacuation education they had already received would survive.
The world has lost very important people Just because they never had accessible Chances to try to evacuate the crashing Airplane in less than three minutes. Three to one minute minutes are a very long time to escape death just by trying
Two passage air planes should have special upward Jolting seats like those in the Army Jets. In this way passengers can be able to survive the crush.
Sorry my language is not brushed well it is my best tool for now I can use.
This issue is vey touching to me because three days before I heard Kobe`s Helicopter Crushed, I heard told my wife that I had dreamt about a hovering helicopter in the sky where I was standing but a little further a way in front of me. its color was between blue and green. I saw its tail come off it and it was balancing in the sky for a minute or two. Then the whole of it started whirling as fast as its main rotator. then I saw it whirl down and it crushed.
I and other people ran to the scene that was a bout half a mile a way. I then saw people grabbing wallets from dead and injured adults and taking money from them and I started shouting at them to take that money back to their owners even if they were dead. I saw bloody 12 children lined up on the ground conscious and unconscious who looked to be the ages between 6 to 14.
I saw this one boy who looked to a bout 8 years old spreading his arms towards me asking for help. I went to the kid and heartbroken on the condition in which they were in, and told him that help was on the way. I then asked him of what happened, he told me that before they took off, the airplane was in hurry and they did not have time to make a second trip and that is why they were overloaded in the airplane. The boy said to me that they were many of them in the airplane and he thought maybe that is why it fell from the sky. Please I am saying Exactly what the dream was a bout. I am not adding or extracting anything from it. Then I told the injured boy that thanks to God they are a life. That is the most important. Then I heard one of common people who happened to be among the rescuers say to the injured people that they were waiting for ambulance because he had already called 911.
I am sorry this is along message, but it feels good to me that I have put it out there for sharing in order to find the common ground for increasing better chances of saving savable lives in in times of air emergency.
I hope all absence mothers and fathers be inspired to be involved in your child's life.

Shocked he’s gone rip Momba and Gianna ðŸ™ÂÂ
ðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂ😥
You know what happened to the truth – https://youtu.be/_rTQfy6u_Fk
I didn’t follow basketball that much as I’m a baseball person but my mom was a avid basketball watcher to the point where you knew we couldn’t call her as she wouldn’t talk to you and hang up but Lakers was one of two teams she loved
Another atmosphere of grief and wrath is hovering around us like that helicopter that led one of the most eminent player in the american basket ball and the more we think about this drammatic event the more
our tears rain.Any way,we know tha was a destiny and many things should be avoided to travel in that killing fog but sometimes as human being we insist to arrive to certain objectives regardless of the risk we run.
So humble “I can’t thank you enough I love you guysâ€ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂðŸ˜ÂÂ
This guy had basketball dna in his blood and passed it along to Gigi ..who won’t be able to pass it on to her son or daughter.
For Sure Kobe and Gigi are now playing for Paradise lakers.
Black Mamba will live on! @t
