Admit it: you knew it was only a matter of time before this one showed up. It is, after all, the bump that kickstarted WWE's fascination with pushing the envelope further than ever before.

It's unclear whether or not Mick Foley was consciously trying to top what Shawn Michaels had achieved at In Your House: Badd Blood the previous year, but he chose not to hang off the side of Hell In A Cell before landing on an announce table below.

Nah, Mick wanted The Undertaker to throw him off the damn thing instead.

In one of his books, Foley did admit that 'Taker threw him with significant force, and that (had he not spun onto his back) could have resulted in him landing on top of the metal barrier right next to the table. Had that happened, this bump wouldn't be so well-remembered.

People in attendance couldn't believe what they were seeing, and Jim Ross still claims to this day that he was serious when calling for medics to come out and help his friend.
