Rugby great Jonah Lomu dead at 40

He scored tries that nobody else in the history of rugby union could have scored. Immense power, acceleration, agility and balance. There was no-one like him.

Sony playstation 1 or 2 had a great Rugby Union game, it was possible to win just playing Jonahs character

My favourite rugby player of all times RIP gentleman 🙏💗

Desde Chile, de un muchacho que comenzó a jugar rugby y quería ser como Jonah! aun duele tu partida!

2023 and you're still remembered brother.
Rest in peace bro.

Wellington, NZ

There are a number of great All Blacks who people respected enormously. However very few of them you could honestly say were loved like Jonah was by the rugby public.

He was a hell of a man.

We miss you uncle😢❤

I believe Jonah is the greatest rugby player of all time and the 3rd greatest ball sports player of all time behind the great Pele and the dominant Esther Vergeer

I remember hearing about Jonah’s death and I was so shocked at how old he was, and now Pele has also joined him, R.I.P to both absolute legends ⚽️⚽️⚽️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🐐🐐🐐, 🏉🏉🏉🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🐐🐐🐐

The R9 of Rugby

💖🙏🏾☝🏾





🤙🏾💖

This man is freak me up every time I've seen him play, he just smash people out cold guys👍❤RIP

Why cldbt he get a transplant in time?

God bless you j

THERES TV ADS OF HIS MUM AND FAMILY THEY ARE FUNNY ...RIP OUR HERO NO ONE WIL EVER EQUATE TO WHAT YOU WERE ON THE FIELD ONE OF A KIND

Sad I worked in the meat works our manager came out halted our production and told us jonah lomu had passed we had a moment of silence the manager in his office crying at what he had just heard on the radio he kept saying why now he's to young ...all day he walked up and down our production chain in dissaray

One of the many reasons I don't beleve in god

Jonah was so exciting to watch, people who weren't even rugby fans tuned in to see him play. Very few athletes are comparable.

I was never in to rugby ,but I remember Jonah very well in his prime I would of been 14 ish ,what an absolute tank ,seemed like a really nice genuine fella as well ,RIP champ

I find it difficult to fathom why there are those 36 individuals whom would dislike this humble spirited behemoth?
They would all be warmed by his humility if not terrified by his on field wrath
Best they remain secure behind their sticky keyboards 😂🤣

Rest easy Big Man✌
Rewa Hard

Irishman here, what a player, what a pro, what a bloke, Jonah u will always be in our thoughts and prayers, u revolutionised the game of Rugby, u were an inspiration to all adults and kids alike, u are sorely missed, god bless u mate, RIP, WE WILL NEVER FORGET!

A true rugby great RIP Lomu

Greatest rugby player ever

Greatest Rugby player of all time

That's my islander man,bro I'm just sad he's passed I feel that sorrow for his islander family out there he's with the Lord now,from nz

First and only megastar

Honestly how do people get so confused with the metric system 1.96m = 6 foot 5

Legend.

Overgrown coconut.

Lovely human being ♥️

I remember seeing Jonah turn up at a touch tournament when I was younger. I'll never forget how peaceful and calm he wasas he interacted with people, nothing like the machine he was on the field. That will always stay with me for the rest of my life. As we say in NZ 'If you don't know Lomu you don't know Rugby.'

In my eyes the most famous sportsperson in the world ever. Still thinking about him and watching videos of his tries in 2019!

I grew up watching him on TV. So sad he is no longer with us. RIP

What an ultimate Joy to have watched this Ultratalented Beast Winger play live in his prime and when he was sick (You just never knew about his dialysis condition Wow) . I had to watch a bit of Jonah today to ease the pain of losing to the Wallabies last night lol

Took the world by storm,a true legend.A very real person.

Jonah Lomu the legend we will never forget

Thanks, i appreciate your tribute to the great man.

Irishman here, Jonah Lomu epitomizes everything a man should be, a hero of our world, as humble as can be, thank you for the memories Jonah.
We will never forget!!! R.I.P.

died of steroid abuse

As Keith Quinn once said "Everyone loves Jonah"

All Blacks legend gone but never forgotten✊😎✊

I always knew Jonah as like a second father to me I'd always look up to him at my hardest times and when I lost my grand final when I was in u16 I said "fuck it I'm gonna be a younger version or jonah" but when it all came crashing down I thought of Jonah how he just kept pushing no matter what

You will be locked in my heart, Jonah❤️

Rest well

How can you not love the big guy.

OMG, watch the jonah lomu documentary you ponlmy twat news reader deud where former all black captain Laurie mains said they had Jonah's weight at 118 kg Laurie chuckled and said jonah would of been flattered by that coz he was much heavier, try 134kg-138kg around 300 lbs ,and if you ain't stupid you will know that his height at 1.96 is 6foot 5

How Sad, prayers for his Family and Fans. Awesome man will be missed.

The BIG FREINDLY GIANT.
RIP Brorher✌

Really sad that favona best man in the world love Jonah xox
