of fans gathered to honor him throughout the night. >> and millions honoring him around the world. memorials growing all across the country. see buildings lighting up in that purple and gold from madison square garden here in new york to los angeles. and let's take a live look at the memorial at his high school near philadelphia where he became a star. >> he certainly did. we'll have much more on his legacy in a moment, but first we have new reporting on that devastating crash. t.j. holmes starts us off near the scene of the crash in california with the latest. good morning, t.j. >> reporter: robin, good morning. and there are a number of families in pain this morning remember there were nine people who died in that crash here in this neighborhood, in the hills in this neighborhood behind me that killed nine people, but in particular, the loss of kobe bryant is hitting the l.a. community, the nba community, the sports world and, in fact, people all over the world really, really hard. people are in disbelief that this global and cultural icon

could be gone. shock and heartache around the world at the news. kobe bryant, dead at 41 years old, killed sunday when the helicopter he was in crashed in the hills of calabasas, california. also on board, his 13-year-old daughter gianna and seven others on their way to kobe's mamba sports academy in newberry park for gianna's basketball game. koeb k kobe was expected to coach. this photo was taken at the gym where kids were awaiting kobe's arrival. kobe's helicopter took off from orange county just after 9:00 a.m. for what was expected to be a short trip, but at 9:45 a.m., tragedy. the helicopter crashed into the foggy hills. >> visibility, 2 1/2 miles with haze. ceiling 1,100 overcast. temperature 122.8. >> reporter: before the crash, the lapd grounded all police helicopters saying weather conditions did not meet the standard for flight, though it's unclear if weather played any role in the crash. we are learning this morning

there is an unusual rapid loss of altitude and increase in air speed seconds before the crash. the ntsb and the fbi are both at the crash site investigating. kobe often used helicopters to get around l.a. here he is in 2016, even regularly taking his own helicopter to home games during the nba season. >> he loved being in that helicopter. he certainly was never really concerned about it. for him to be gone particularly through these means is incredibly tragic. >> reporter: just weeks ago, kobe and gianna, known as gigi, were spotted at a brooklyn nets game having a father/daughter courtside moment that went viral. >> i love this. >> reporter: fans showed love for kobe at the staples center and tributes continued to pour in for the man his fans lovingly call the black mamba. >> kobe at the buzzer! >> reporter: former teammate shaquille o'neal tweeting, there's no words to express the pain i'm going through with this tragedy of losing my niece, gigi, and my brother. i'm sick right now. and magic johnson called kobe the greatest laker of all-time.

we didn't lose him in the prime of his career, but to many people it feels like we lost him in the prime of his life. >> so many ways. t.j., thank you. >> we have seen tributes for kobe bryant pouring in. the new of his death stunning so many fans and friends. chris connelly is at the staples center in los angeles where thousands have been gathering through the night. good morning, chris. >> reporter: and good morning, michael. it continues to be a heart breaking morning for fans of kobe bryant. we're outside of staples center where kobe had so many magnificent moments. fans began gathering yesterday bearing flowers to honor the life and career of kobe bryant. >> bryant, on the move. with the jumper. >> reporter: he was the basketball prodigy whose skills and self-confidence helped propel the los angeles lakers to five nba championships. >> is it what you dreamed of? >> everything and more. you have the laker colors falling from the ceiling, the fans going crazy. >> reporter: he labeled himself the black mamba, capable of striking with speed and

precision, but from the start, it was his charisma and personal magnetism that made him a star. raised in italy where his father was playing basketball, he played his high school hoops in a philadelphia suburb. >> i have decided to skip college and take my talent to the nba. >> reporter: drafted when he was still just 17 years old -- >> kobe bryant from lower merion high school in pennsylvania. >> reporter: immediately traded to the lakers. >> outstanding. >> reporter: two years later he was already an all-star, joining with then-teammate shaquille o'neal as the lakers would win three consecutive titles in the early 2000s. kobe becoming a beloved figure in l.a. and throughout the basketball world. during his prolific career, the 18-time nba all-star set the bar higher and higher. >> kobe bryant. >> reporter: twice named mvp in the nba finals. >> this feels like a dream.

it doesn't even feel real right now. it's unbelievable. >> reporter: also winning two olympic gold medals with the u.s. men's team. in 2006, kobe scoring 81 points in a single game, second highest in nba history. >> 81-point game. >> i couldn't even dream of this when i was a kid. >> reporter: but his life in the public eye was not without its lows. in 2003, he was accused of sexual assault by an employee of a hotel in colorado where he was receiving treatment for his knee. charged with a felony, bryant maintained his innocence. in 2004 after the charges were dropped, bryant apologized publicly to his accuser. through it all, his wife through it all, his wife vanessa remained by his side. the couple becoming parents to four daughters, including 13-year-old gianna, affectionately called gigi by her father. the two bonding over their mutual love of basketball. >> dear basketball, i fell in love with you. a love so deep i gave you my all. >> reporter: after his retirement from the game, his career blossomed once again, this time in hollywood.

>> kobe! >> reporter: kobe winning an academy award in 2018 for his animated short, "dear basketball," a love letter to the sport he played so brilliantly. >> as basketball players we're supposed to shut up and dribble, but i'm glad we did a little bit more than that. >> reporter: until the end, kobe's grit and determination was unmatched. in his final game as a laker in 2016, he defined the calendar by pouring in 60 points, an unheard of achievement for a retiring player, and a fitting conclusion to a career that was every bit as spectacular. >> to be drafted and then traded to this organization and to spend 20 years here, you can't write something better than this. mamba out. >> reporter: kobe always was such a flair for the big moment. it's just astonishing to think

that that memorable voice has been stilled forever. guys? >> what a life and impact he had, chris. thank you so much for that. and joining us now from los angeles, nba hall of famer scottie pippen and kobe's former teammate, derek fisher, the head coach for the l.a. sparks. thank you for joining us. >> we'll start first with you, derek. you and kobe drafted in the same year, playing for the lakers all those years. five championships. tell us what was it like sharing the court with kobe? >> well, first i want to send my thoughts and my heart and my family's heart to vanessa and the girls and their family, the families of the passengers. such a heartbreaking day yesterday. sharing the court, a work space, a life for 13 years with kobe was a gift. it was a blessing to be able to watch someone on a daily basis

strive to be the best at what they do, to be the best in the world at what they do. that's who he was and always will be to me, and that example is hard to explain to others to be able to see that on a daily basis, and my heart just hurts for -- for his family, and for the fact that he's no longer with us. >> we share that with you, derek. what do you want people to know about kobe off the court? you have spent so much time with him. you were there through thick and thin. what was he like off the court that you want people to know? >> well, i think there are, you know, as with all humans, there are different versions of us as we grow and evolve, and to be with kobe from his rookie year in 1996 to the kobe in 2004 to the kobe in 2010, his evolution

as a husband and as a father and as a man that wanted to impact the community beyond basketball, to think about what he has been committing himself to in terms of young girls and women in the sport of basketball, that's what i want people to remember. i want us to continue to -- to push for what he was most recently striving for, in terms of equity and opportunity for young girls, for girls like his daughters that are still with us, for girls like my daughters, for women to come. he didn't just talk about those things. he lived it. very similar to what he did on the court. he didn't talk about being great. he worked at it every day, and that's what i want people to remember about his life off the court as well. >> well said. i know you're also the coach of the sparks of the wnba, and he was a huge, huge supporter, and

brought gianna to the games and he was looking forward to her playing in the league one day. so derek, thank you so much for -- for your thoughts and insights. and we're going to go now to scottie, and okay, you guys were rivals on the court, but you and so many, you said you had great respect for him. tell us about that respect. >> well, you know, looking back at kobe in 1996, i was in the prime of my career and had an opportunity to watch a young man's career for 20 years, to watch him blossom season after season, to rise to the top, to be able to take the torch and really carry our league for 20 years, and, you know, he was a special player because we watched him come out of high school as a very raw, charismatic player, and he

developed into, in my eyes, as one of the best players we've watched on the basketball court. he had it from his style on the court as well as off the court. his competitive fire was unmatched, and, you know, for me, i look back at kobe and i watch his growth and development. he was one of those players that idolized michael jordan, but he mimicked michael jordan in a lot of ways. and it was a guy that, you know, i watched him watch films on one of the greatest players that ever played the game, and he emulated his game to the "t", and to some degree overcame all of his weaknesses and became to me, one of the greatest players to ever play the game.

>> scotty, you mentioned michael jordan. you played against kobe. how would you compare the two legends? >> wow. very close. two of the most charismatic players that i have ever seen in the game. iconic. those guys really set the bar. kobe wanted to be known as the greatest player to ever play the game. i mean, he wanted to be better than michael jordan. he wanted people to realize that he was right there, and that he put in the work to let you know that, you know, he is one of the greats. >> all right. scottie, thank you so much. derek, thank you as well. we really appreciate you guys sharing your thoughts on kobe, and thank you so much for your time this morning. >> we'll have a lot more on kobe coming up. we do turn to washington and that bombshell report upending the impeachment trial of president trump. "the new york times" reporting

on the draft of former national security adviser john bolton's book, and he claims president trump told him aid to ukraine were tied to the president's requesting the investigation from the ukraine. jon karl is tracking this breaking news. >> reporter: president trump's former national security adviser john bolton is the witness democrats want to testify in the senate trial more than any other. the report overnight in "the new york times" shows just how key he may be to the case against the president. four weeks ago, bolton submitted the manuscript of a book he has written to the white house for a standard review to ensure it does not include any classified information. according to the "times" bolton writes, president trump told him in august he wanted to continue withholding military aid to ukraine until officials there launched investigations into trump's rivals, including joe biden. this firsthand account directly contradicts what the president's lawyers argued in defending him

during the senate trial just this weekend. >> there is simply no evidence anywhere that president trump ever linked security assistance to any investigations. >> reporter: president trump denied the claims overnight tweeting, quote, i never told john bolton that the aid to ukraine was tied to investigations into democrats. bolton is strongly suggesting it's the white house who leaked his manuscript to "the new york times." he said there was only one copy and it was the one he turned over to the white house to review. one thing he does not do is dispute anything in the "times" report. george? >> thanks for that. let's go to ginger. >> straight to the select cities brought to you by carmax.

discoloration around the lips. that is a critical sign that they're not getting enough oxygen. their chest and ribs may pull inward indicating a greater effort of respiration. if it's severe, they could become unresponsive and unconscious. if they're making any sounds, that could be a sign they are moving air. you want to just observe and, you know, get everything ready. >> what are the steps for the infant cpr? >> this is really important. assume that maybe you're starting from this position. the first thing you want to do if you assess that an infant has no heartbeat, no pulse and is not breathing, have someone call 911. if you're alone, you initiate cpr. you put that infant on a firm surface, a table or a floor, and kind of tilt the baby's head back a bit. right between the nipples you take two fingers and start pressing 1 1/2 to 2 inches down about 30 times. you have to go deeper than you think. >> most people are afraid you're going to hurt the baby.

>> remember, you can't do anymore damage in the situation of cardiac arrest. after 30, you tilt the baby's head back a little. you put your mouth completely over the baby's nose and mouth and deliver two slow, deep breaths and you want to see the baby's chest rise and fall with those breaths. check for a pulse. if there is none, you start again. obviously we're not doing a full infant cpr course right now. learn cpr. it could save a life. >> great advice, doc. thank you so much for that very important message for everyone out there. coming up, we have the very funny julia louis dreyfus and will ferrell on their new movie. we'll be right back. >> announcer: this week, the countdown is on to oscar sunday. the stars, the parties and all the exclusives. this week no one does oscar like "good morning america." >> i think we just found a new "gma" co-anchor. a new "gma" co-anchor.

different way. >> what did it take to get you on board. >> it took a lot. yep. >> that's where most of the budget went, right? >> yep. pretty much. 80% of the budget. i was presented the script, and sat down with julia which was the first time we ever met. >> really? >> yeah. >> you would never know that in the movie there's such chemistry. >> we're still baffled by it. >> how is that? >> i don't know. >> you're, like, the titans and icons of your generation. >> that's what we said. >> we were literally saying those words. >> reporter: zach woods and zoe chow play the children. rosie, can you run in ski boots? >> not very well. >> boom. exactly. >> what was your experience like entering this world with will and julia? >> it was -- it was wonderful, but it was also strange because these guys are role models and heroes of mine creatively. >> that's [ bleep ]. >> their characters are bleeding
