The more dangerous moves in “Professional Wrestling” a.k.a how is Mick Foley still alive?

754 views

I recently saw the Mankind vs Undertaker Hell in a Cell match. A match that has it’s own wikipedia article: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mankind_vs._The_Undertaker

From a Biological POV How is Mick Foley still alive after being thrown two stories with just a table to break his fall? He suffered “a concussion, a dislocated jaw and shoulder, bruised ribs, internal bleeding, puncture wounds, and several teeth knocked out.” And this is all in one match.

How do these pros go through so much damage without dying and usually having long careers? Is the Human Body really capable of taking so much damage?

I will always watch this video when I pop up in my feed. I also watch every interview about the match, one of the most famous matches in wrestling history. One thing that is not mentioned is that The Undertaker was slightly behind one section (steel bar separation) if Taker was in the same section he would have crashed through on top of Mankind. That could have been fatal.
