Trivia Of The Day June 4

On June 4, 1986, professional wrestler Kerry Von Erich was in a motorcycle accident that nearly ended his life. Doctors were unable to save his right foot, eventually amputating it. He continued wrestling while secretly wearing a prosthetic - even showering in his boots so no one would know. Erich's injury wasn't public knowledge until his death from suicide seven years later.

In the later part of his life, George III of the UK suffered from recurrent, and eventually permanent, mental illness. Once when driving through Windsor Great Park, George commanded his carriage driver to stop.
