Kobe Bryant had weakness for helicopter flights. This thing, which has been broadcast for years by American media, where the basketball star was constantly flying through California. He even risked the lives of others by trying different maneuvers.

Former Los Angeles manager-general, Rob Pelinka, recounts the horror he experienced every time Brian played the risk.

Once, the winner of five NBA champion titles asked the pilot to carry out military maneuvers with the helicopter and once turned off the engine while flying.

In those moments my life passed by. I almost had a heart attack. Kobe was sitting and quiet”, confesss Pelinka.

The 41-year-old flew often by helicopter whenever his Los Angeles Lakers team held championship matches. It seems the mania to fly by helicopter cost him and his daughter life.

Los Angeles police confirmed that after a helicopter crashed in California's territory, five people were found dead. Authorities confirmed that among the victims was Kobe Bryant sports star. Hours after the tragic news, his daughter Gianna was also declared dead by the American authorities.
