I saw it tending and just assumed it was one of those fake death reports that go viral from time to time.

Unfortunately, it was true.

RIP Kobe, and the others on board.

Grew up a Lakers fan here in LA. Had season tickets to the Lakers, during Kobe's reign, for years. Kobe is bigger than life in LA. This news is beyond shocking. Simply indescribable.

Such a tragic loss for all of those on board the helicopter.

RIP

Not to be insensitive but why do we care about this death vs the other 150,000 people that died today? Is it because he’s famous that we react irrationally?

Who is acting "irrationally?"

same reason when someone you care for passes. Kobe has meaning in our lives.

Everyone posting on social media because someone famous died.

People put more energy into this type of news than they do when a friend dies.

I’ll admit that anyone dying is sad but to cry out for one individual when thousands of others also died today is a weird social issue.
