10 Years Ago Today: Owen Hart Tragically Dies At 34

Today marks the 10 year anniversary of Owen Hart's death. He was the youngest of the 12 children to Helen and Stu Hart

He fell to his death in Kansas City, Missouri on May 23, 1999 during the WWE Over The Edge pay-per-view event when a stunt where he was supposed to be lowered into the ring from the rafters went wrong. Hart fell 78 feet (24 m) into the ring, landing chest-first on the top rope near a corner.
