Let this be a lesson to everyone, don't trust your life with people that have money and fame, these people usually are the most Reckless people out there. Just because you give a man millions to dribble a basketball does not mean that the pilot he has hired is a responsible person, don't be Starstruck and let that Jade your common sense. This should also be a lesson learning that the media in this country thinks your life is so insignificant and the only person worth mentioning is their so-called star or Hollywood's figure. I hope these families sue the crap out of Kobe Bryant's family, this fool got all those innocent people killed.
@@markkulyas2418 I hate to say it, but I think this is an instance where money and fame blurred the judgement of a very experienced pilot.....and they all died as a consequence. Time will tell, but it certainly appears to be pilot error. I understand where you're coming from...
I hate to sound like Larry David but is there any other way to rest? This rest in peace stuff makes it sound like the dead is tossing and turning every five minutes.
The S-76 is a very safe helicopter! Don't let what happened with Kobe Bryant's crash scare you. The pilot made a bad decision to fly in IMC conditions not the helicopter! The helicopter only does what the pilot inputs. This was not mechanical error, this was a bad judgment call.
Carolina Foods well said Carolina!!! I pray that people don’t become irrational by the events that took place. It was the actual weather conditions that played an intricate part of the crash that killed the 9 passengers and a detrimental mistake of the pilot.... unfortunately
@H Joseph, I totally disagree with your reply. Most helicopter flights are done in VFR flight conditions making them very safe aircraft. Lack of judgment with combination of IMC conditions makes for a dangerous flight. The Sikorsky S76 has been the leader in safety for a long time. Don't be so quick to judge an aircraft based on pilot error. The TAS system are still too this day optional.
I shouldn't ask what happened to you because it not any of my business. But glad to know that you're okay. Even though we've never met. I was life flighted by COX AIR CARE to Cox medical south in Springfield, Missouri from Monett, Missouri due to respiratory failure in 2015 at the age of 39. I'm now 45 and still alive.
I don't like choppers. They could have driven that day. Sunday morning traffic isn't that bad in LA. I live in San diego. I travel to LA TWICE A MONTH on Sunday mornings. I'm so sorry this happened.
For sure, even before this tragedy, never felt safe in a chopper or twin engine Cessna, at least you have some chance in a Big Jet! very sad all the way around.
Great Helicopter!..Pilot error is what put this chopper down. High percentage of all aviation accidents is human error. Sad but true! 😢 RIP Kobe, Gianna, Altobelli and Chester family, coach Christina Mauser and pilot Ara Zobayan. 🙏💔🏀
It wasn't Pilot error. This pilot was terrible. He should have went down slowly with the helicopter instead of going 185 miles an hour in a fog. Why the Pilot descended at that speed in a fog is crazy
@@tylerhaynes7812 It was all over the news how the pilot was descending down at a speed of 185 miles an hour in the fog. I heard a helicopter pilot say something this week which i think answers the main question. He thinks the pilot thought he was going up when he was going down in the fog. That's why he thought the pilot was descending so fast at 185 miles per hour. The Pilot was trying to go up, but didn't realize the helicopter was going down. The helicopter pilot said in a fog, you might not know if you're going up or down.
The choices we make..... damn this hurts.... R.I.P. to all 9 of the people in the Kobe Bryant helicopter accident.... This one gonna hurt for a long time... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
These are the Rolls Royces of helicopters - incredibly reliable and safe if you don't choose to fly by visual flight rules in mountain areas, at zero visbility. Very, very sad about Kobe. May ALL of those who lost their lives - including the pilot, who appears to have simply made a bad decision - rest in peace. It's so freaking sad. My heart goes out to the family members.
Love the 76. Those powerplants are super tough and I have ran them full tilt for near whole flights and as soon as the FADEC kicks back in they still hum like it was nothing.
Fog was not the problem. The problem was flying visually instead of by the instruments when the weather created poor visibility. Helicopters can fly in fog & if pilots are rated to fly by instruments, they can too.
Caleb Mandrake that was the problem. It was foggy and he couldn’t see. What are you talking about? He’s not dissing the helicopter he’s talking about decision making. Furthermore the pilot and company was not allow to file a flight plan.
I had a friend involved in a car/ semi truck accident during the fog one night. 3 people died. 4 cars and one semi truck involved. Ever since then, I respect the fog and park on until it’s gone.
Used to work on the S-76A at PHI and this aircraft looks good and flies great. However, a bit hard to work on due to all shafts are shimmed and some are hard to get at.
Richard Baker. My late and very awesome uncle worked for PHi in Lafayette for 35yrs and was very fond of his S-76s and S-92s. The S-76 is my all time fave next to the Bell 222 series.
90 people a day die in car accidents just in the USA. You far more likely to die in your car on the way to the airport than in the aircraft. Private aircraft definitely have a worse safety record. But it's still higher than driving.

There is not a thing wrong with this helicopter, but if your pilot with a rich celebrity breathing down your back, pressuring you to fly on a bad foggy day in inclement weather mistakes can happen.......
John Osborne ya so true. But I still think they were all screaming in the last 30 seconds. They were going too fast into that hill. They had to know. Kinda like a roller coaster. But after impact, barely no pain. Is my guess.
We get it RUclips one of the Legends and his loved ones died in this dinosaur...Sick if seeing it on my timeline.Anyone else keep seeing this Chopper???
I bet the safest thing to fly on today is one of these helicopters. After an accident like this brings attention to an industry , everyone from the mechanics working on them to the people flying or cleaning them , is on their super A game.
@Chris D I know it's a running joke, but that's not how it works at all. Democrats would most likely rather demand that all helicopters be outfitted with the necessary instrument to prevent something like this from happening again meanwhile Republicans would be against enforcing private companies to comply with such an order because it's government over-stepping and would make companies spend money causing them to lose potential profit margins. Yes, I am fun at parties.
No it's not you stupid fuck tard! Kobe and passengers were sacrificed! They planned this shit! It's called "predictive programming"! Look it up asswipe!
I am 44, just started back flying after 39 years of being afraid to fly. I love flying now, in fact I have a helicopter excursion planned for an upcoming trip in the Bahamas.

: the Air Rescue Choppers Were Grounded Because of the Horrendous Fog .Pilot Should Have NOT Took the Chance of DISASTER,Mother Nature Doesn't Let Up for ANYONE.R.I.P. To All The Unfortunate Passengers.
There are a lot of moving a parts on a Helicopter that when working as designed, it flies perfectly. When one of more of those parts fails, it can be uncontrollable.
Until the NTSB publishes its report, we don't know with 100% certainty. But if you see discussions by highly responsible seasoned heli-pilots, they have a very good idea.
Realistically, They probably had a horrible feeling in the last few moments. If a pilot asks for special permission to fly in bad weather, it would set anyone's nerves on edge; secondly, wasting 15 minutes in a holding pattern is tense, and lastly when all visuals are lost in clouds, it's apparent to everyone onboard. Pretty sure all were in a state of panic. Hillside may have come into view in last second.
Every youtube video of an S-76 has comments about Kobe Bryant. Have any of you gone on the comments section of a Blackhawk video and mourned the death of military members for a crash in the middle east? No. Shallow ass people. Ya'll think more of some basketball player than people that have been in harm's way for their freedom.
RIP Kobe Bryant 😢😥😥 but you should all remember that is the fire chief of piston peak Blade ranger!🚁😡😐 I'm going to tell ya all that is a character from the movie Planes: Fire and Rescue!
The sound effect used for Airwolf was just Hollywood magic. The actual ship sounds like a UH-1 or Cobra gunship. Some fourth season episodes made less and less effort to dub in the sound effects and let the actual sound remain. But this was ironic since the fourth season didn't make any new flying footage at all.
Nice chopper, they just needed a pilot to say “ too much fog, I abort, this is not safe”, but the pilot was a young buck that didn’t know better , trying to impress a celebrity, and the tower should have grounded choppers from flying through mountains in dense fog ..... do I have to educate everybody ??
I realizes you never know how your gonna go, and it's really not up to you, "if you can help it". But the older I get, I like to think of ways not to end up slamming into the ground or catching on fire, especially with someone else's in control. Only way I fly if it's a matter of life or death.
ENCOMAN ENCO IKR. People think I’m crazy when I tell them I’ve never been in the air no roller coasters no planes no 🎡 smh clearly I have a major fear of flying! But death is something we can’t escape. I agree.
Oh the dumb comments are not going to stop anytime.As someone into Aviation and you don't have to be in Aviation to know certain do some research.A helicopter and a fix wing aircraft is a lot more safer than a driving a car.The pilot that crashed with Kobe made his call,he decided to take a risk when everyone was grounded that morning.There is a saying and it applies to every machine we operate''Risk takers are accident Makers'' The next pointer you cannot flying VFR in IFR conditions such as fog.For the love of God it won't work,don't try it!!!!
When the entire police air choppers were grounded for poor visibility, that should have been a sign not to fly that day. It was a very said day indeed, a great man died a family is gone and 3 children gone including Kobe’s beautiful Girl. I wish they would have decided to Drive that foggy day. RIP to all 9
Before Kobe's death, I was always terrified of Helicopters.. Now I can't even stand to hear them passing over my roof. RIP to everyone who lost Their lives on that helicopter 🙏🏾
The Sikorsky is a huge copter. Oh my God. I can't imagine controlling that copter the way the eye witness described Kobe's copter at a low level for 15 minutes then flying into dense clouds with no instrument to guide and no co-pilot. Geez.
@@Caleb_Mandrake872 Exactly, they are beautiful machines. Slightly more dangerous than an airplane but much much safer than cruising down the interstate at 75-80 mph.

Until the NTSB publishes its report, we don't know with 100% certainty. But if you see discussions by highly responsible seasoned heli-pilots, they have a very good idea.
Is this the same kind of chopper Kobe was in? Same exact?
Yep
Yes just a different color
I just hope Kobe and everyone else in that chopper beside the pilot had no idea what was coming and hope no one felt pain. RIP.
Realistically, They probably had a horrible feeling in the last few moments. If a pilot asks for special permission to fly in bad weather, it would set anyone's nerves on edge; secondly, wasting 15 minutes in a holding pattern is tense, and lastly when all visuals are lost in clouds, it's apparent to everyone onboard. Pretty sure all were in a state of panic. Hillside may have come into view in last second.
It'd be nice if there was a way to suppress the high pitch squeal from the turbines.
Every youtube video of an S-76 has comments about Kobe Bryant. Have any of you gone on the comments section of a Blackhawk video and mourned the death of military members for a crash in the middle east? No. Shallow ass people. Ya'll think more of some basketball player than people that have been in harm's way for their freedom.
Very nice!
Nice size chopper
RIP Kobe Bryant 😢😥😥 but you should all remember that is the fire chief of piston peak Blade ranger!🚁😡😐 I'm going to tell ya all that is a character from the movie Planes: Fire and Rescue!

by hearing the sound i conclude that the chopper used for the Airwolf series must have been this type
The sound effect used for Airwolf was just Hollywood magic. The actual ship sounds like a UH-1 or Cobra gunship. Some fourth season episodes made less and less effort to dub in the sound effects and let the actual sound remain. But this was ironic since the fourth season didn't make any new flying footage at all.
The Airwolf conversion was a Bell 222 airframe.
Im not sure who needs to hear this ,but just because Kobe Bryant died in a S76 doesn't mean you need to comment on every damn S76 video about it.
That chopper looks scary and tragic.like it was doomed
Now that’s the reason why Francis hates helicopters
Nice chopper, they just needed a pilot to say “ too much fog, I abort, this is not safe”, but the pilot was a young buck that didn’t know better , trying to impress a celebrity, and the tower should have grounded choppers from flying through mountains in dense fog ..... do I have to educate everybody ??
Ground warning indicators should be required
Is it autonomous?
All people just pray to god always before u live in work etc...
Flightradar24 says it's a Sikorsky S-76C. Is that helicopter really a(n) S-76B? Please let me know. But anyways, nice helicopter.
I realizes you never know how your gonna go, and it's really not up to you, "if you can help it". But the older I get, I like to think of ways not to end up slamming into the ground or catching on fire, especially with someone else's in control. Only way I fly if it's a matter of life or death.

IKR. People think I’m crazy when I tell them I’ve never been in the air no roller coasters no planes no 🎡 smh clearly I have a major fear of flying! But death is something we can’t escape. I agree.
Oh the dumb comments are not going to stop anytime.As someone into Aviation and you don't have to be in Aviation to know certain do some research.A helicopter and a fix wing aircraft is a lot more safer than a driving a car.The pilot that crashed with Kobe made his call,he decided to take a risk when everyone was grounded that morning.There is a saying and it applies to every machine we operate''Risk takers are accident Makers'' The next pointer you cannot flying VFR in IFR conditions such as fog.For the love of God it won't work,don't try it!!!!
When the entire police air choppers were grounded for poor visibility, that should have been a sign not to fly that day. It was a very said day indeed, a great man died a family is gone and 3 children gone including Kobe’s beautiful Girl. I wish they would have decided to Drive that foggy day. RIP to all 9

RIP Kobe
Excelente máquina.
Before Kobe's death, I was always terrified of Helicopters.. Now I can't even stand to hear them passing over my roof. RIP to everyone who lost Their lives on that helicopter 🙏🏾
S-76 is a reliable helicopter don't let that discourage you. Cause of the crash was pilot error
Skip to 3:20
Anybody know where the gas tank is located?
Motorbikes of the air.
Never ever i would step into a fucking helicopter!
The Sikorsky is a huge copter. Oh my God. I can't imagine controlling that copter the way the eye witness described Kobe's copter at a low level for 15 minutes then flying into dense clouds with no instrument to guide and no co-pilot. Geez.
Are you kidding the S-76 is way more simpler to control then larger helicopters
Rip Kobe
New S-76bs are $25 million each.
which year Sikorsky 76 was made?
it was built 1991, owned by state of Illinois & sold it online (that's one story, i was able to read online ) not sure if kobe was the owner.
@@deniskk2 Kobe did not own the Helicopter. He rented it as he needed it from a company that provides Helicopters for rent.
Instead of buying his own helicopter, he should have donated his fortune to the needy. He didn't need no God Damn helicopter! RIP to him anyway.
He didn't but it he rented it
i dont trust helicopters
cuz you don't have the knowledge.
@@Caleb_Mandrake872 Exactly, they are beautiful machines. Slightly more dangerous than an airplane but much much safer than cruising down the interstate at 75-80 mph.
2,500 car wreaks in 30 minutes in United States, How many helicopter or jets 🧐
Or maybe you should say, more appropriately, that you don't trust *_some_* of the people *_operating_* these incredibly safe machines?? (rollseyes).
Its not the helicopter its the pilots decision to abort the flight i dont trust.
