did you know that Khali caused the death of somebody in the ring? Nasty.
From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Khali#Professional_wrestling_career :
Under the ring name "Giant Singh", Dalip Singh became a pro wrestler for All Pro Wrestling in the United States of America, making his first appearance in October, 2000, when teaming with Tony Jones against the West Side Playaz 2000. On May 28, 2001, Brian Ong volunteered to 'receive' a flapjack from Dalip Singh, a wrestler being specially trained by All Pro Wrestling. This led to Singh inadvertedly causing the death of trainee wrestler Brian Ong. When performing the move, Ong was fatally injured. He had a previous concussion and the second consecutive concussion proved fatal for Ong. All Pro Wrestling lost a lawsuit brought by Ong's family over his death, and were forced to award damages of over $1.3 million to his parents.
