Independent wrestler James "Idol" Martinez pulled off a dangerous stunt at a recent show that could have been ten times worse.
Footage obtained by Sun Sport shows, Martinez purposely sets himself on fire after pouring lighter fuel over his body as he stood on the top rope before leaping down towards his opponents.
The stunt clearly went wrong as not only did he miss the crossbody attempt, but the flames continued to burn his skin afterwards.
Seeing his pain, his opponents rush to try and put out the fire; however, the wrestler instead dashed towards the curtain where staff eventually put him out.
It remains unclear of how bad the damage is, but a statement from PWR confirmed that Martinez has been suspended.
