Glad you found it!
Owen died in my hometown. At the hospital my mama worked at. On the weekend of my graduation. RIP Slammy award winner & KOTR, Owen Hart
So sad 😢
There actually is more than one video of the incident. My uncle filmed was filming the audience and testing the zoom on the camera. He zoomed out just in time to catch it. It’s grainy and blurry but you can see and hear the impacts. He bounced a good 5ft off the turnbuckle area and hit the ring hard enough to bounce a second time. It was to big booms and screams. I’ve only watched it twice. But our family still has that VHS tape he made, it’s only 7 minutes long mostly just him filming random shots and testing the zoom. Once he realized what happened he turned the camera off and left the arena because of what he just witnessed and because he didn’t think the show was going to happen. He kept that video a secret until about 3 years ago. And no he will not sell it or ever upload it. He only let me watch it because I didn’t believe that he actually had the video of it, and I couldn’t have my phone with me. It was really a messed up thing to see.
He died in the ring
Owen we miss u!!
@@WrestlePod ouui80oo
He was the greatest, I didn't like him as a kid because he played his role so good.
He was so annoying and frustrating - played it perfectly
He was one of the nicest guys and most funny person.
@@WrestlePod a good guy playing bad . He was the greatest.
I remember watching Over the Edge when it happened. Me and my brother were devastated. We loved Owen Hart and the Hart family. This was so tragic and negligent by the company.
One of the saddest days ever as a young kid for sure
The day after school kids were making fun of Owen dying. I was a big Owen Hart fan and they all liked DX and Austin. It was messed up.
😊😊😊
All they needed was Jim Carey to pop out with a guitar and sing Jumper, and it would have all been avoided 😂

A needless death caused by a greedy disgusting business man who has zero care for the greatest showmen in the world. Rest easy the king of hearts, you made so many of us happy and still do despite bastards burying your legacy
It’s such a tragic story all round
Ungodly tragic. Thank you for making this beautiful documentary Matthew 🙏🏻
Couldn't agree more. I believe he's behind several tragedies in the sport.
Vince Russo as well.
I Miss Owen.... That man was too talented for that Blue Blazer crap!! When the Screwjob happened, the push shouldve been!!
I agree!
I remember this night like it was yesterday. There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think of Owen. I named my son after him. My son knows how special the king of harts was.
It went black on ppv on my tv Richmond VA.
I think the whole stunt was unnecessary and the gimmick was dumb, but wrestlers coming down from the rafters in a high wire act wasn't unheard of (Shawn Michaels and Sting). They had performed the same stunt with the blue blazer in the past and it went just fine. They even rehearsed the stunt earlier that afternoon with the same crew and equipment. Everything went as planned. There was no reason to suspect that there'd be a problem during the show. Because of that, I don't necessarily think McMahon deserved as much criticism as he received. However, where he lost my sympathy and respect was when he chose to continue the show. IMO it should've ended when the accident happened, but it ABSOLUTELY should've stopped once they knew Owen was dead. Pushing forward and continuing the show was unbelievably insensitive and disrespectful.
Rest In Power, King Of Harts.
A legend

@WrestlePod Gotcha. #youtubeisqueer I'm not saying a gay slur despite what they intend to hear. They're hypersensitive always looking for something wrong. They need a long pull of some quality shit in a bong. If you like guys, that's nature's decision. But I'll pick it apart with lyrical precision.
God bless all his relatives friends and most of all he was great in restling.
May his soul rest in peace
I’m still so pissed at Vince over this one.
So tragic
He would have went farther than Brett.❤
RIP OWEN
the announcer needs help
I love when he says "however" hahahaha
Owen got punnished by Brett leaving, they held him histage with stupid gimmicks,
Vince got away with murder.
What a dumb, boring and pointless gimmick to give any WWE wrestler in the 90s nevermind someone as good as Owen? Who could have actually liked that gimmick except weirdo Vince? 🙄
Owen Hart was a beast. If he would have live he would have been bigger than HHH. Him and J.J. was an awesome team.
Owen kicked Bret's leg right out of his leg
😂 such an unfortunate moment haha
Owen was WAY BETTER than Bret!! That's just a FACT!!! In ring he was just far more superior!! He was on another level. He was a good technical wrestler and he also had his high flying abilities such as flipping off the top ropes and moves like that. Bret was never able to do any of that. I know he injured Stone Cold and Dan Severn but accidents happen. Bret claims that he never injured anyone but Bad News Brown aaid specifically that Bret had hurt him more than once. It was to the point that Bad News was going to beat his ass. And as far as promos Owen was actually funny as fuck when cutting promos as a heel. He truly was. Bret , on the other hand , absolutely SUCKED!!! He always had that overly serious poor me demeanor. Bret was extremely overrated. There are so many other wrestlers from Stampede who are way better than Bret. The one who overrates Bret the most is himself. He once said that he was more popular in Britain than Davey Boy Smith. He went on to say that he was the more favored wrestler at the 92 Summer Slam against Davey Boy but the fans cheered for Davey Boy just to be respectful because it was his home country. I mean how fucking delusional is that? And don't get me started about the Montreal Screw Job. Bret didn't want to lose that night because he didn't want to do that to his character. That is beyond pathetic of an excuse and Bret knows that, so nowadays he basically says Shawn threatened him and still had animosity towards him. Just complete bullshit. If you watch Dark Side of the Ring and Wrestling with Shadows it is clear as day that he is lying.
I always hated him and didn't see why people loved him so much when I was a kid I hated the look he seemed like all he did was whine.
The saddest day in wrestling and WWE's most tragic day is when Chris Benoit offed his wife and his 7 yr old son
McMahon killed him. Hint. The ppv was called over the edge. Which he fell.
Did he fall over an edge though?
Definitely too much of a coincidence to ignore
It’s a coincidence I will give you that. Why would WWE want to make it obvious is VKM was in on it?
@@WrestlePod remember Vince McMahon high the most inexpensive rigger you starting to talk about your azz
🤡
😊
or umm 1999= upside down =666
Absolutely Tragic..... However he did try to cripple Steve Austin and Dan Severn, but who cares, right??
I really like your work, but Christ alive, there needs to be a ban on this, Montreal and the death of WCW
In regards to Owen, I’m now ambivalent to the event because it’s been covered so much by the same people saying the same thing
That’s not to say this is badly made though, it isn’t
Sorry mate I totally understand your viewpoint and in a way share it. However, whenever I try to cover the lesser known topics they get no views and this obvious stuff makes money. It’s twisted but I need to pay my mortgage.
@@WrestlePod totally get it! And the quality of your work is great too, so no knocking you personally
Just very played out- add to the list, stories about Andre The Giant farting too
@@Solid_Jackson Imagine trying to police the topics other people discuss and make videos about. 🙄
@@uhsaywhatnow what how is this policing anything, commenting in a public forum?
It’s what the comments section is for you silly goose
BSK doing Vinnys work ...over the edge u say ....nice vince ...how hes not in jail ..wow..hes all over this sacrafice ;)
Edge...= Edge...being " Indocrinated" on tge wwe!! wake up SHEEP!😂😂
