@@sahejohal you're a fucking idiot lol, the pilot crashed the helicopter and killed them all. There was no engine failure, he flew it into a mountain..
Ero Sennin it is a poor day for flying the visibility is as good as trying to peer through a glass of milk. Kobe knew it was dangerous but the pilot insist in flying.
Never seen Jimmy cry before but you can tell Kobe was a friend to him. Jimmy could barely get through he's monologue even making jokes here and there didn't help the tears coming in.
Lorentz tbh i had people who went on ellen in the audience and after the show Ellen was There was for like 20 min when they went to shake her hand she basically acted like they didnt exist... haven’t heard anything bad about jimmy tho
Kobe Bryant really was a true friend to Jimmy Kimmel. He was on his show 15 times, and I could tell how close they were after that. It's heartbreaking to see how much he is suffering up there, but he was able to overcome it and remember and celebrate Kobe like he wants to.
As a Catholic, I thought the jester for all to turn to one another was brilliant and most profound.....offering condolence, peace and gratitude! Wow! Thank you Jimmy!
I couldn't avoid to cry with this Jimmy emotional speech, which expresses how important Kobe was for basketball, his family, and even friends. Some genius should never die but, this is life, so thank you Jimmy for mentioning those people who died also in the accident with Kobe.
Because weird people like you count likes & act like they represent everyone’s opinion. No, you people make these stupid comments so more people drive the dislike up. Dont be an idiot
Jimmy as a host trying his best to hold it together as a fan and a friend at such a public event of grieving. For all who were lost, you can feel his hurt as a mourner, and trying his best to do kobe and his family proud. Everyone is used to seeing him crack a joke, and God bless him he still somehow managed it. I love this dude.
Nearly a year later, I still tear up at Jimmy's speech. It must have been so painful to Jimmy and the rest of Koby's friends and family when he died. 😥
DaFuzzBearYT dude kimmel is awful, I have no problem with him as a father or anything but his show is pure bias and leans towards his stance no matter facts or logic, also because he cries almost once a month on his show, I have no doubt this came from a true place and I've even liked this video, but the dislikes are from people who just see Kimmel. Not towards Kobe or Gigi.
I love that Jimmy Kimmel is not scared to cry/show emotions for anyone to see.😥They couldn't have picked a better person to open & host this celebration of these 9 beautiful lives lost too soon. Love & Prayers to Ms. Vanessa, their beautiful daughters & all affected by this tragedy. ❤️🥰💙🙏🏻💜
this is the first time im going through and listening to all the speeches.. i couldn't before... but i will now...RIP to all the families affected. KOBE and GIANNA❤
The only other time I saw raw emotion come outo of Jimmy was for a completely opposite reason....Donald Trump, it was powerful and dead on....I have always enjoyed him, but after this speech and his going after "The Donald", I am forever an admirer!
Thank you for the speech Jimmy. I am touched by every single word you have uttered. When I come to Los Angeles, I will be ready to do my tribute to every single spot that honors KB 8/24.
I remember the day. I cried at work. I went home early, I didn’t believe it. I love you Kobe. Thank you for the hard work ethic. I’ll always work as much as I can.
I am so proud that Jimmy was able to do this and I am so happy that even though Kobe isn’t with us anymore I am so glad that we got the many great years with him that we did and Kobe will be missed but he would want us to stay strong Fly high Kobe🕊❤️
I come and watch this every few weeks still... and everytime it still hits me fresh that this is the sad reality and that it happened. Its truly unbelievable and it's just not right..
This was a great speech from Jimmy. The way he held himself together but allowed himself to feel his emotions just made me cry. Genuine love & amazing way to lighten everyone up.
That Kobe chant always gives me chills the man was a legend loved by many still can’t believe it’s been three yrs since he left us RIP the mamba and all who lost their lives
Still feels like yesterday when Kobe used to drop the detailed analysis on ESPN+ of the young players in the league. Not a day goes by where i dont think of him. In a way, he gave us a sense of purpose. Every time i feel like giving up, my inner voice says this isnt what Kobe would want and i immediately gather everything in my will and power to face whatever is in front of me. He made me better.
it still surprise me to this day at some of the celebrity reactions. Kobe has always been know as a lone wolf that is brilliant but drives people away, it's surprising to see just how many people he touched. Jordan's speech was especially shocking, I don't think anybody really knew how close they were until now.
I know I'm being naive by saying this but I couldn't imagine Kobe dying... He seemed indestructible seeing how tall he was, how great as a person he was and having so much dignity, strength, courage, inspiring the next generation and I could go on. I am not a basketball fan but I truly liked Kobe. May he Rest in Power like Chadwick Boseman... Mamba out and Wakanda Forever!
Goodbye Kobe u were an inspiration in my life.U really made me get into basketball and others to thank u hope u have a good time in heaven and Mamba out..
Jimmy Kimmel was so heartbroken during that time. You can feel the emotion that he was feeling. I was crying my eyes out the whole time I was watching the Memorial. R.I.P Kobe, his daughter Gigi and the 7 others who lost their lives on that Helicopter Crash on the morning of January 26th 2020. God bless all their souls ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Each heart represents the victims lost on that day
I've jested to my husb that I love Jimmy K. Bec he has much compassion for others. He was a great pick for this celebration. His love for Kobe & his family is evident. I'm so sorry Kobe & his dgt are gone.🌷
Jimmy is the best in such situations...genuinely emotional and cracking a slight joke at the right moment, before going back again to the emotional words...He did the same when Don Rickles died...good guy
Man he broke down. It shows the difference btw person who is in and out. God Bless the family who has lost their precious life's. This is such a tragic event and no one can be cross and Go as it has happened. Stay strong Jimmy. Your compassion towards that Man is seen.
Man idk where to begin my throat is hard for me to swallow just hearing this and still grieving over this you say his name, and wanna ball crying but gotta hold it in because you won't get him back.
One of the only people who recognised the others who died. Thats why i love jimmy, most people forget about the others who died and they were just as important as kobe
His parents didn’t even get the front row seats, they were somewhere not noticeable. His parents claimed all his success was their doing, sold Kobe’s high school jerseys and belongings, and complained to kobe when the house he bought for his parents were “too small”
Kobe bryant and gigi will never evr forgotten ilove them and missed them so much .. thier family the lakers team and their friends the fans they make me feel that they still alive. Who will forget bryant his legacy love kindness and one of d best atlhetes in d world . You and gigi are missed
