Owen Hart Was in the process of being lowered via harness and rappel line into the ring from the rafters of Kemper arena for a booked intercontinental Championship match against The Godfather. In keeping with the Nlazer's new "buffoonish Superhero" Character, he was to begin a dramaticentrance, being lowered to just above ring level, at which time he would act "entangled", then release himself from the safety harness and fall flat on his face for comedic effect--- this necessitated the use of a quick release mechanism. It was an elaboration on a Blue Blazer stunt done previously on the Sunday Night Heat before Survivor Series 1998. This time, something went wrong with the stunt harness, apparently triggering the release mechanism early as he was being lowered. Hart fell 78 feet (24 m) into the ring, landing chest-first on the top rope, approximately a foot from the nearest turnbuckle, throwing him into the ring. According to Bret Hart's autobiography, Hitman, at Over The Edge Own was initially planned to descend from the rafters with a midget wrestler scissored between his legs - ironically, the same midget wrestler used to parody Bret himself on RAW shortly after the Montreal Screwjob. Had this been the case, both men would likely have been killed. The idea was nixed only hours before the event. In Mick Foley's autobiography Have a Nice Day: A Tale of Blood and Sweatsocks, he Claims that following the fall, Hart attempted to sit up and did so before falling back. This WA confirmed by Bret Hat in Hitman. Hart had performed the stunt only a few times before and was worried about performing the stunt at the Kemper Arena due to the height involved. Hart's wife Martha has suggested that, by moving around to get comfortable with both the harness and his cape on, Hart unintentionally triggered an early release. TV viewers at home did not see the incident or its aftermath-at the moment of the fall, a pre-taped vignette was being shown on the pay-per-view broadcast as well as on the monitors in the darkened arena. After, while Hart was being worked on by medical personnel inside the ring, the live event's broadcast showed only the audience. Meanwhile, WWF television announcer Jim Ross repeatedly told those watching live on pay-per-view that what had just transpired was not a Wrestling angle or storyline and that Hart was hurt badly, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation. Hart was transported to Truman Medical Center in Kansas City, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. ( Hart had actually died while still being tended to in the ring.) The cause was later revealed to be internal bleeding from blunt chest Trauma.
