    Michael Hutchence is one that springs to mind. Was in shock for a few days.

    Too many rumours at the moment,i heard the family was ok and on holiday somewhere else with another family.....Hope so anyways.

    Helicopters are dodgy as *.....seen way too many crashes over the years with them.

    The Bride and groom from Brazil was horrible to see,along with that news chopper that went down

    TMZ reporting that his 13 year old daughter died in the crash as well.

    Very sad.

    Planes come down every day of the year. They re just as dangerous! Both scare the * out of me but funny enough, i want to learn to fly a small plane. Had some lessons to start me off but never got round to doing them. Sent away for all the books etc.. but the recession hit and hit hard times so put that to bed. One day though want to do it, even if its in retirement.

    Sad hearing news of people dieing like this thou, esp if his daughter and wife are in it aswell.

    His little girl dead as well she was a very good basketball player she had a bright future. Dude achieved everything the ultimate sports athlete. My first memory of him was him wining the slam dunk competition.

    Offered helicopter rides in NY when going into the terminal for Staten Island Ferry. Hassling like * by two guys trying to out price each other. Told them they could give me money to take a copter and I still wouldn’t get on. * that.

    Was shocked also, I turned CNN on randomly and they were speaking about a Helicopter crash in Calabasas and it crossed my mind that the Grammys were on there and that it was probably a celebrity. Turned it over to Sky News and they were already saying it was him.

    Only 41 and worth $500million

    One of the biggest sports stars of all time . A proper shocker this , RIP.
    The poem he wrote to mark his retirement is all the more poignant now.

    Have next to no knowledge of basketball but his name superseded the 1 sport. There’s a handful of guys that have done that from basketball so I think his legacy is set in stone.

    Honestly didn’t think he’d be as young as that, been about forever.

    "You can’t have life without death. Can’t have light without the dark. So it’s an acceptance of that. When it came time to decide whether or not I should retire, it was really an acceptance of that mortality that all athletes face. And if you combat it, you’ll always have that inner struggle within yourself. So … I’m comfortable with it."

    RIP to all involved. Horribly sad.
