10 Wrestlers Who Have Been "Killed" In 2020

2. Rey Mysterio And Aleister Black - 85ft Fall

Rey Mysterio and Aleister Black are both dead. And at least one street cleaner in Stamford, Connecticut had the worst Monday of their entire lives.

As already discussed, the terminal velocity of a human body is about 53 meters per second. Falling from the Performance Centre TV gantry doesn't leave you the necessary distance to achieve this, but being thrown from the roof of the eight storey, 90ft Titan Towers would get you a lot closer. Mercifully though, not close enough that you'd hit the ground with the required force to... um... how I can put this... explode.

Our bodies are pretty well put together you see, and for all the analogies about human pizzas we'd have to be going over 44 meters per second to lose all structural cohesion upon impact. Spraying out viscera and carrion for several feet in every direction. With the height of WWE HQ to plummet, a human body would probably only reach about 20-25 meters per second before it hit the ground.

Still though, while that's not fast enough to - and I'm quoting Drew McIntyre here - "burst yeh!", it is fast enough to smash up every single bone and rupture every single organ in the human body and, thus, Aleister Black and Rey Mysterio were murdered at Money In The Bank.
