- 41: Kobe & Gigi Bryant
Listener, in this episode I will be laser focusing on both Kobe and Gigi bryant. There is a lot of information that surrounds this specific disaster. And, yes, I am well aware that there were nine fatalities. That these people all lived their own distinct lives. But, to be frank, the information present would be redundant. There are only so many things that can happen to the human body from a helicopter.
With this episode of Disaster, I want to focus on the flight itself. The crash. And the immediate, devastating aftermath. Please note: I will not be covering the police taking pictures of the bodies and the subsequent court case. I feel that this gets into true crime territory, and I want to focus on the specific catastrophic disaster.

We took local boxing classes. And Like fools we had makeshift local boxing tournament There were times when we nearly knocked each other out. I’ve found years later that others shared this experience. Looking back… I wish I’d learned a language. Maybe focused on my fitness. Instead, I probably earned myself some C.T.E. It’s interesting to find that this sort of dangerous competition still goes on. That young people are still finding that not so great outlet. November, 20th, 2021, the University of Nevada Las Vegas hosted a boxing event at the held at the Sahara Event Center. The Fight Night featured untrained student boxers. What happened next was a tragedy and disaster. Episode Sponsor:

Twitter, Facebook, and even MySpace were things that had not been invented yet. Social media simply didn't exist the way that it does today and what modes of communication did exist took a small amount of technical knowledge. Private email groups and local BBS message boards were still the primary mode of communication by the time a service known as Usenet began to gain popularity. These newsgroups made it simple for the public to create an alias and post a public discussion; not unlike a primitive, stripped-down version of Reddit. And much like the early days of Reddit, topical groups available through the service ranged from the ordinary to shocking levels of depravity. There were no videos, gifs, or emojis as we see today as part of chat apps. This archaic online world was all ASCII and imagination, but for someone like Sharon Lopatka the online world was one of adventure and excitement. A world that she believed would fulfill all of her deepest desires, and one that ultimately lead her down a path of darkness.

Sometime in 2013, rumors about a deadly suicide game began making their way across social media sites. VK, a Russian version of Facebook, seemed to be the source of the phenomenon, but like many creepy pastas, the game's true origins are muddy at best. What is well documented is the moral panic that began to spread through Russian tabloids about a game, known to teens as the Blue Whale Challenge, that some sources claimed had been responsible for a vast majority of the 130 suicides that occurred in Russia in 2016.
