Legendary basketball/NBA player, Kobe Bryant was killed in a helicopter crash with four others today. He was 41.

TMZ broke the news, here's the report – https://www.tmz.com/2020/01/26/kobe-bryant-killed-dead-helicopter-crash-in-calabasas/

Goddamn it, he had 4 daughters too…

i keep forgetting we as humans are still mortal

Can you not be some pseudo intellectual spouting out “wow so deep” bullshit for once.

What’s even sadder was that his daughter was in there with him….. Jesus I’m worried about how his wife is taking all of this.

someone on discord brought this to my attention and looking at this post it sounded better in my head… sorry about that. i'm not trying to be sarcastic, im being sincere with this…i don't want people hate me forever for it.

Jesus. I guess we've been counting the years by celebrity deaths ever since 2016…

41 goddamn years old….

Shaq isn't going to be happy about this…

I grew up on basketball, and Kobe was very much a part of it. So to hear the news was shocking. Rest in peace Black Mamba.

I was never much into basketball, or really sports in general, but I know people who are and they all had something good to say about Kobe. Even despite that, it's still terrible to hear about someone so many people look up to dying so young, and in such an awful way. The fact that his daughter was with him makes it worse. By best wishes towards his family.

I was talking about this with my friends earlier today. One of them gave the troubling statement that Kobe's death could overshadow his career. I hope that it never does, for Kobe was a great man both on and off the court.

Don't know much about basketball, but F to a true legend

I don't follow basketball to closely, but I know the man was a legend. I feel awful for his daughter and the rest of victims, such a horrifying way to go.
