Due to its position, the hyoid bone is not usually easy to fracture in most situations. Professional wrestler Lance Storm suffered such an injury in a match when Christian Cage struck his throat with a misplaced lariat (forearm strike)[1].
In cases of suspicious death, a fractured hyoid is a strong sign of strangulation.
