Kobe's daughter Gianna Maria -- aka GiGi -- was also on board the helicopter and died in the crash ... reps for Kobe tell TMZ Sports. She was 13.

Whether you were a fan of his or not__you respected the great player he was. 100% agree. I was never a fan but there is no doubt he is a legend. Then to hear his daughter was with him... just tragic. Sad for the families of the other three passengers as well.

ugh. this one hurts.
the house kobe lived in during high school is approx a half a mile from my current house. i drive by it every morning when i drop my son off at daycare. he played basketball at the same community center that i currently go to. my brother in law was a hockey goalie and graduated in the same class as kobe at lower merion. since they were both athletes, they ran in same social circles. my wife told me she met kobe at her bro's graduation party.
kobe was a legend in high school. besides carrying lower merion to a state college, his decision to go straight to the pro's occurred when it wasn't a common occurrence. his father joe bryant was a star at lasalle. and lasalle hired joe to be an assistant coach in hopes of landing kobe. if kobe decided to play college basketball, there's a good chance it would have been at lasalle unviversity.
you know who else was a basketball legend in philly when kobe was in high school? rip hamilton. he played at a rival of lower merion (coatesville). in fact, kobe and rip hamilton played each other in the district playoffs in 1996. kobe won.

Sad for the families of the other three passengers as well. There were 8 other victims, including the pilot. They are all equally dead, and they were all equally important. They were ALL God's children.
This bullshit about singling out one victim is pathetic.
CFIT can be ruled out. Video shows the helicopter spinning, indicating loss of tail rotor control.
Not that it matters, but it sounds like the pilot was either Asian or Middle Eastern.

At the time of my post, the number of reported passengers was 5 but thanks. By the way, that crash footage you so incorrectly provided is from 2018 and occurred in Dubai. Nice job, clown show®.

Thanks for correcting me about the crash footage. I should have looked into it more closely. On review, it does appear that visibility is much better than reported at the CA crash site. I hope Youtube will remove that.
It doesn't matter how many people were in the crash. One person is not more important than the others that were killed. THAT is what matters.

My original post didn't single anyone out. I said it was tragic that his daughter also passed and was saddened for the families of the other passengers. Sorry I didn't call them out by name but that information wasn't available at the time. You get bunged up about the weirdest shit...

Visibility was not terribly good. the entire region was overcast and foggy, though I believe there is reference made out of ATC about VFR. That said, with a low deck, it seems odd to not have followed the natural valley between the SF valley and TO. The chopper was significantly south of it in an area with terrain close to the reported ceiling of 1500ft.
