10 craziest falls in WWE history

One of the biggest attractions in professional wrestling is the death-defying stunts that the wrestlers are able to perform much to the delight of the adoring audiences all over the world. Ever since Mankind crashed off the top of the Hell in a Cell way back in 1996, heights have been a sure-fire way of getting the fans into what's going on.

Sure, there's a certain kind of beauty in technical mat wrestling and the ferocious power moves of larger WWE superstars, but nothing quite invokes the same sense of awe as a mad leap from nose bleed inducing heights.

That is why sports entertainers — as Vince McMahon stubbornly calls them — who are willing to put their bodies on the line in the name of their craft are valued so highly in the business. And, today we are here to celebrate those men who shocked the WWE Universe.

So, without any further ado, here are the 10 craziest falls in WWE history:
