The video covers the investigation into the helicopter crash that killed Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna, and seven others. The NTSB report suggests the pilot may have been disoriented in foggy conditions. The report includes over 1,000 pages of communications, highlighting the pilot's vetting process and the dual-engine requirement for the aircraft.
