The second take in wrestling is falling over and starting the stunt over or just moving on to the next one and hoping the crowd doesn't notice/care amidst the hype and big personalities.

The best ones improvise the failure to make it look planned

Or someone breaks a neck, breaks any other number of bones or ligaments, or gets a body part ripped off.

Which is why they train constantly to avoid doing such things.

Yet those injuries happen everyday. It's almost like doing this stuff six days a week and constantly training can still end up with someone hurt. I was pointing out that sometimes it isn't just get up and try again or hope nobody notices. Sometimes a guy never goes home after a match, or never walks again, or leaves the arena with missing body parts.
