7. Shelton Benjamin Crashes Onto A Ladder Bridge - WrestleMania 24
It's one thing to have other wrestlers break your fall, as was the case in Morrison's example. What about instances where the only thing keeping you from a total splat is an inanimate object? Earlier Money in the Bank matches were showcases for Benjamin to demonstrate his universal-class leaping ability, but none of his emboldened jumps were as insane as the flip he took off of a ladder in Orlando. With another ladder bridging the ring and the dasher boards, Carlito and Mr. Kennedy tipped over an in-ring ladder that Benjamin was perched at the top of. That sent Benjamin careening in a front flip onto the ladder bridge in a mostly-uncontrolled dive. The wide-eyed look on Carlito's face post-landing echoed viewer sentiment.
