4. Ric Flair Reveals How His Umbrella Killed A Guy
During a recent appearance on ESPN’s “The Dan Le Batard Show”, two time WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair revealed a story where his umbrella killed a man. Below is what Flair said:
“I got off the plane and was walking. I didn’t go 10, 15 feet when all of a sudden I felt this pressure boom, and man, my umbrella shot 50 feet in the air.
I thought, ‘What the hell?’ Lightning hit the top of my umbrella, bounced off and hit the guy in the eye five feet behind me and killed him. Right there. I just stood there looking at the guy and froze, it scared me to death. People were running out the door to get the guy.
I’ve always wondered what kind of a lawsuit that was, because it was really a big deal, hence probably the steel tips coming off umbrellas at that point.”
