What's even crazier about the match is that it went horribly wrong right from the start but they both kept going even though they were both injured.
Foley dislocated his shoulder and was knocked unconscious from the first fall. When all those guys run out with the stretcher to haul Foley away and then try to stop him going back to the match they weren't acting - they were backroom guys who weren't even supposed to appear on camera that night. Vince McMahon also dropped his stage persona and was obviously really loving worried. Foley was knocked unconscious again when the top of the cage unexpectedly gave way and he fell through to the ring below and the steel chair landed on his head. He also bruised his ribs, was bleeding internally, dislocated his jaw and had several teeth knocked out during the match. The Undertaker also hosed up his ankle jumping down from the top of the cage into the ring.

I just watched a video of this and it seriously insane. I don't give a poo poo about wrestling but it is pretty nuts regardless.

Wrestling is full of crazy moments, but few of them top that match for how many injuries both wrestlers were sustaining. Like, imagine doing even one of these stunts and not just quitting right then and there (if you didn't get hospitalized):

Also, Vince McMahon is a crazy idiot who doesn't understand what the audience wants, but he's just as tough a wrestler as the rest of them and has repeatedly shown up to get thrown around and bloodied. #9 in that video is him getting thrown off the cage and smashing his spine into the side of a table.

His head and his hands are pretty huge but whenever he's in a photo with other people he doesn't seem that tall, I'd guess that he had some condition similar to acromegaly but without the increased height.

You almost start thinking it's on a loop after the first minute. Every landing and roll is almost identical.

He posted this on Instagram showing how skinny he used to be. He was still 6'8, but looked cartoonishly gawky.

A girl from my high school class made the same transformation. The last time I saw her leaving school, she was pretty normal. I looked her up on Facebook about 5 years later and she's become a professional bodybuilder with the horrifying muscle tone they all get for shows.
