Wrestlers family found dead

[sparks19]

Yes Owen Harts death was a tragedy. He was performing a stunt where he was supposed to repel from the ceiling and he fell to his death Very sad indeed. He was apparently a very good man.

British Bulldog also died a few years ago from a heart attack (no doubt roid induced)

and Yes.... WWE wrestling is very fake and scripted..... but it is still very dangerous. Many a wrestler has become paralyzed or had a very close call from a stunt gone wrong.

Greco Roman wrestling is very real though.... but that is not the style they use in the WWE .... it's all high flying stunts now. WWE is like watching a movie or a sitcom.... it's all scripted (the only parts that are improv are the speaking parts) but none the less it does still take a lot of physical effort.

It's all crazy stuff if ya ask me, including the drugs associated with that sport (would it be classified as SPORT ????) And now this happens....a whole family gone.....I guess like Catty says.....it all will only go away when ticket sales etc etc stop.

Catty knows GR wrestling?

That's 10 points in any book. Got see GR in the '84 Games. That was fun!

The moves in "pro" rassling are very tough and acrobatic. These guys are athletes..There was a great expose on VM and the biz a few years ago...
That soured me on the spectacle.

The thing that gets me are the "reports" on what happened.
In typical fashion, there were 'roids found, there weren't, it was gunshots or suffocation.

'Roids are too much fun to report on-mental illness?
In my book killing anyone qualifes, drugs or not.

They poor reporting and the supposition muddle the waters.

Either way it's reported, it's too bad.
