He landed on top of his head and broke his neck.Check Foley's book. He got injured as well. Part of his ear was ripped off in a match when he got his head tangled in the ropes.New Jack and Vic Grimes (when they were both in ECW [my fave promotion when it was around]) both suffered injuries when they leapt from the balcony 25 feet into three tables. New Jack severed the nerves in his left eye.Vic Grimes (again) suffered serious injuries when he took a stiff bump in XPW. He was  thrown off a scaffold 35 feet into the ring through three tables stacked on top of each other.Yakushi (I think) was injured in an FMW death match when his opponent set the entire ring on fire and then powerbombed him into it. He suffered 2nd and 3rd degree burns on his back. The ref in the match was likewise injured as he was near the fire and it "splattered" on him when Yakushi was powerbombed.</blockquote>
