The thing 74 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,120 with pro wrestling is you're taught to 75 00:03:24,879 --> 00:03:30,599 keep 76 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:33,840 going. It is sport, but it's also 77 00:03:30,599 --> 00:03:36,640 entertainment. It can take a heavy toll 78 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:40,150 both physically, mentally, emotionally, 79 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:42,239 and sometimes spiritually on someone. 80 00:03:40,150 --> 00:03:44,239 [Music] 81 00:03:42,239 --> 00:03:45,680 Chris was at a particularly insecure and 82 00:03:44,239 --> 00:03:46,959 vulnerable time in his career as a 83 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,280 professional wrestler because he was 84 00:03:46,959 --> 00:03:51,200 aging, because his body was failing. 85 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:54,799 Just the week before, he had been 86 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:57,040 drafted from WWE to the lesser ECW 87 00:03:54,799 --> 00:03:59,680 franchise. 88 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:01,680 I'm sure he was worried about his future 89 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:04,239 because there's always somebody snipping 90 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:07,280 at your heels, somebody that wants your 91 00:04:04,239 --> 00:04:08,879 spot. He was coming to the end of his 92 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,799 professional wrestling career. His body 93 00:04:08,879 --> 00:04:12,159 was falling apart and he realized the 94 00:04:10,799 --> 00:04:16,400 thing that animated him that kept him 95 00:04:12,159 --> 00:04:18,880 going was likely going to end soon. 96 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:21,199 Chris was clearly a supremely fit 97 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,960 individual. But by the age of 40, it 98 00:04:21,199 --> 00:04:25,919 would take him much longer to recover 99 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:28,479 from such a physically demanding sport. 100 00:04:25,919 --> 00:04:31,280 This is because as we age, bone and 101 00:04:28,479 --> 00:04:33,280 muscle lose calcium and other minerals, 102 00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:36,320 making them less dense and more 103 00:04:33,280 --> 00:04:38,800 susceptible to injury. Was Chris's 104 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:42,160 natural physical decline in a sport he 105 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:44,800 loved a factor in the tragedy? I need to 106 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,800 investigate 107 00:04:45,639 --> 00:04:51,280 further. Christopher Michael Benois was 108 00:04:48,639 --> 00:04:55,290 born in Montreal, Canada to Michael and 109 00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:56,800 Margaret on May 21st, 1967. 110 00:04:55,290 --> 00:04:58,720 [Music] 111 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:01,120 He was known as a very quiet but 112 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:03,520 studious and well- behaved child. He was 113 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:06,639 a kid that people liked. 114 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:09,039 At age 12, the family moved to Big Sky 115 00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:11,440 Country, just outside of Edmonton, 116 00:05:09,039 --> 00:05:15,360 Alberta, where he first saw broadcasts 117 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:16,880 of a local TV show, Stampede Wrestling. 118 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:19,440 That's where he fell in love with pro 119 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:21,520 wrestling uh watching Stampede and 120 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:26,320 especially a guy named Dynamite Kid. 121 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:27,639 Yes, he is. Wham! Bam! Dynamite Kid was 122 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:30,320 Chris Benois's 123 00:05:27,639 --> 00:05:32,720 hero. He was not the biggest dog in the 124 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:35,440 fight, but man, could he fight. Watch 125 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:37,280 this now. He was the kind of guy that 126 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,280 would jump off the top rope without a 127 00:05:37,280 --> 00:05:42,240 second thought. Chris Benois obviously 128 00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:44,960 fell in love with that. Chris turned his 129 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:47,199 passion into a vocation. He started 130 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,240 training with the legendary Stu Hart, 131 00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:52,000 founder of Stampede 132 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:54,880 Wrestling. At the age of 18, Chris made 133 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:57,520 his debut. And within months, he was 134 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,360 even sharing a stage with his hero, the 135 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,440 Dynamite Kid.

Many 139 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:10,880 professionals felt he'd struggle because 140 00:06:08,319 --> 00:06:13,440 of his height. You know, for years, 141 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,360 because of his size, his stature, he was 142 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,520 told, "You're too small. You're too 143 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,840 small. You're too small." But he 144 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:22,319 compensated for the lack of size with 145 00:06:19,840 --> 00:06:25,280 his talent....
