Question

Answer 1

Brett harts brother Owen hart died doing that, ( Owen hart was wrestling under the ring name of blue blazer) he was set to come down to the ring on a safety harness and platform, and then to fall of when he was 2ft above the ring in true blue blazer style, but when he was being lowered he moved his body to get comfy in the harness and accidentally triggered the emergency release button and fell 50 ft and hit his chest on the top if the ring post. he later died in the ambulance.............it was at the last ever "over the edge" pay per view event.R.I.P Owen , and know your still thought of and loved down here on earth!

Answer 2

I'm fairly sure that there used to be a wrestler called the Blue Blazer. You may be confusing him with Owen Hart, who died when he fell from the rigging above the ring as he was making his entrance to his match at a Pay Per View. I can't remember which one now.

Answer 3

Owen Hart was once known as the "Blue Blazer".

Owen Hart did not die from flying off his motorcycle - he died falling from a suspended overhang in which was being lowered with him on it.
I think it was somewhere close to 50 feet above in the middle of the ring.
The Rock explains it in his book "The Rock Says" and says that all they could do was watch from backstage after it happened because it would have looked pretty lame had they all run out there.
It was pretty devastating.

Answer 4

owen hart.

from wikipedia: Hart fell to his death in Kansas City, Missouri on May 23, 1999, during the WWF pay-per-view Over the Edge PPV event. He was being lowered into the ring from the rafters of Kemper Arena for a scheduled Intercontinental Title win over The Godfather.
In keeping with the Blazer's new 'buffoonish superhero' character, Owen was to be lowered to just above ring level, at which time he would release himself from the safety harness and then comically fall flat on his face. He had performed the stunt only a few times before, and was worried about performing the stunt at Kemper Arena due to the height involved (Owen had a fear of heights).
Owen performed a practice stunt earlier in the day, and the stunt went forward on the show as scheduled. His wife Martha suggests that, by moving around to get comfortable with both the harness and his cape on, Owen unintentionally triggered an early release and fell 78 feet (24 m) into the ring, smashing his chest on a padded, but still tough, ring turnbuckle.
TV viewers at home did not see the incident or its aftermath, as the WWF was transmitting a promotional video package for the match, and only showed the audience while Owen was being worked on by medical personnel inside the ring while WWF television announcer Jim Ross repeatedly told those watching live on pay-per-view that what just transpired was not a wrestling angle or storyline and that Hart was hurt badly.
Owen was transported to the Truman Medical Center in Kansas City, where he was pronounced dead on arrival (he actually died about six minutes after the fall, while still lying in the ring). The cause was later revealed to be internal bleeding from blunt chest trauma. He was 34 years old. The WWF chose to continue the event, which drew a great deal of criticism over the following weeks, especially as the main event of the evening involved The Undertaker (also known as the "Deadman") winning the WWF Title.
The next night on Monday Night Raw in St. Louis, Missouri, a two-hour televised tribute was broadcast (see RAW is Owen), in which WWF wrestlers and officials paid tribute to Hart. The Over the Edge event name was retired.
In the weeks that followed, much attention focused on the harness Owen used that night, especially on the "quick release" trigger and safety latches. When someone is lowered from the rafters in a harness, there are backup latches that must be latched for safety purposes. These backups may take some time to unlatch, which would have made Owen's stunt difficult to perform smoothly. Therefore, it was apparently decided that it was more important not to have the safety backups, because it would be easier for Owen to unlatch himself.
In addition to not having safety backups, the harness Owen used was designed for sailboats and required only six pounds of weight to trigger the quick release mechanism; Owen weighed about 225 pounds. An out-of-court settlement between Owen Hart's family and the WWF has prevented the release of any information about the harness. The WWF, however, decided to ban stunts of a similar nature from this point on to avoid a similar event from occurring.
Owen prematurely left a widow, Martha, and two children, Oje Edward and Athena. Martha Hart settled her wrongful death lawsuit against the WWF for approximately $18 million, and used the funds to establish the Owen Hart Foundation. Martha wrote a book about Owen's life in 2002 called Broken Harts.
Owen's last match was on May 22, 1999, in Chicago. He and Jarrett won a tag team match against Edge and Christian.
On the October 4, 1999 edition of WCW Nitro, Owen's brother Bret wrestled Chris Benoit in an Owen Hart tribute match at Kemper Arena.
