Owen was wrestling in this costume during an 'Over the Edge' match in May 1999, when a release hook lowering him to the ring opened too early, causing Owen to fall to his death. Tragically, the 17000- strong crowd initially thought this was part of the show, and cheered as the paramedics tried in vain to save Hart's life.
