#5 Ken Patera: Destruction of property and assaulting an officer

<p>

Modern fans are probably not familiar with former Olympian Ken Patera, who primarily used a 'strong man' gimmick for most of his career. Patera was legit one of the strongest men in the world in his prime.

So, when he was denied service at a fast food restaurant after hours, he decided to vent his anger by lifting a rock--witnesses described it as a boulder--and tossing it through their plate glass window. Patera fled the scene, and when police showed up at his hotel room to investigate, he got into a brawl with them. He served over a year in prison, which derailed a lot of his momentum in the WWE and probably hampered his career.

Still, it must have been quite the sight to see a giant man lift up a boulder and toss it through the air like a frisbee.
