A British wrestler adored by millions of fans has died while on holiday in Canada.
Davey Boy Smith - known as The British Bulldog - collapsed in British Columbia while on holiday with his girlfriend and her five children.
The 39-year-old was taken to hospital in the resort of Invermere where he was pronounced dead by doctors. It is not clear if a heart attack killed him or he choked to death.
Smith was on the verge of a comeback with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), formerly the World Wrestling Federation.
On its official website, the organisation said: "World Wrestling Entertainment is saddened to report the loss of former WWE superstar Davey Boy Smith.
"Our thoughts, condolences and prayers go out to the family and friends of the British Bulldog."
Smith's father Sid, 63, of Golborne, Greater Manchester, told The Sun: "He started wrestling when he was 10. It was his life.
"He was so fit and strong. He never smoked and hardly drank."
Father-of-two Smith was known for his beaded dreadlocks and being draped in a Union Jack and millions followed his television exploits in the 1980s and early 1990s.
In 1998 he suffered a freak fall which left him with a spinal infection and it was feared he would never fight again but Smith fought back to be on the verge of a comeback.
