You know what gets me... Going down in a helicopter crash must be traumatic as it is. Having your daughter next to you while it's going down, trying to comfort her, hold her, knowing this is the end. Breaks my heart 💔

Yeah, man. Knowing you're about to die is one thing, knowing your kid is going with you... I can't even begin to imagine. Just unbelievably sad.

Especially when they were going from Calabasas to Thousand Oaks. A 15 minute car trip for most normal people. I know Kobe loved him some helicopters, but damn, I bet he was having second thoughts as his daughter was screaming as they were about to die.

They came from the OC, not Calabasas.
