there was no footage of the fall because the cameramen where focused on the ring /entrance

basically owen hart (the blue blazer at the time) was certified to do the zip line to the ring unobstructed (without his costume).
when he did the show, he was in a full costume (including a cape) which got snagged on the ziipline and he basically got pulled from the harness and fell to this death.
the hart family sued and won a wrongful death suit against the wwe.
and the wwe stopped doing all stunts that need to be cleared by the stuntman union.
