#7 Hayabusa breaks two vertebrae and is paralyzed instantly
Eiji ‘Hayabusa’ Ezaki was one of the greatest high-flyers of the 1990s, with his dazzling array of diving moves and impressive agility. Yet even an expert like him wasn’t immune to accidents. On October 22nd, 2001, Hayabusa lost his footing while attempting a springboard move of sorts and landed on his head in the process. When that happened, Hayabusa cracked two of his vertebrae, which paralysed him instantly.

Seeing a man go from an agile high-flyer to confined to a wheelchair in one single move is difficult. You can see the exact moment Hayabusa lost all motion and became incapable of doing much of anything. This led to the end of his wrestling career, but miraculously, Hayabusa did manage to walk again years later.
