With all the tragedy and early death in professional wrestling, which wrestlers are you surprised that they are still living. Two that come to mind are Jake Roberts and Iron Sheik due to their lifestyles of substance abuse. I am also surprised that Terry Funk is still around due to the beyond excessive wear and tear he has placed on his body.

Jake Roberts is the Keith Richards of Pro Wrestling.
Not wishing on him to die, but dang...how does he do it?

I actually think Jake Roberts died about 3 years ago. The drugs are just keeping the body twitching.

I just heard on a Honky Tonk Man that Jake Roberts is still on the gimmick. He was at a indy show this year that he puked in the ring during his match and was so stoned that he fells a sleep on the mat while selling a punch.

In September 2006, Richards claimed he has quit taking drugs, not for health reasons, but because they were not strong enough anymore
Damn

Looking at the amound of 'roids Hogaan has used over the years (and probably still uses) I'm a bit surprised he's still perfectly healthy.
To be honest, a year or so ago, a lot of people were seriously worried about Kurt Angle as well.

I swear every year we talk about guys we are surprised are still alive and Jake is ALWAYS at the top of the list. What the hell are we going to talk about when the unfortunate incident happens?

Jake Roberts is the guy you never pick in a celebrity death pool. I'm always suprised with each day that goes by and Jim Neidhart is still alive. For some reason I always expect that guy to be dead.
