General Hospital star James Patrick Stuart recently made some comments regarding the death of Kobe Bryant and his helicopter pilot, and the soap opera star’s words have stirred up social media users. In a tweet, Stuart wrote, “I went to Jr. High School a few miles from where Kobe Bryant’s helicopter went down. Those mountains are the same ones from the opening sequence of the MASH tv show.”
He added: “The 101 freeway rises into them. God help even the finest pilot using that freeway to visually navigate in fog.”

I also read this was the only pilot Kobe felt safe flying him. Clearly he knew what he was doing. Unfortunately, shit happens. Tragedies happen.

Know that area very well and, sadly, you are so dead-on-target.

They missed clearing the mountains by 20 feet! The chopper was missing a terrain warning system.

I went to A. E. Wright, too. My childhood home was a mile from that crash site. The fog there is so bad. 😓

I thought the same thing regarding the terrain. It’s so heartbreaking.

Fate is fate. I played a part in pulling a man from a frozen river behind the factory I was working in. We got him out, gave him 1st Aid til 911 came. He was fine for 3 months, then died of a heart attack riding his bicycle. When it’s your turn, it’s your turn. Live each day.
