Attention everyone! Throwing a person smaller than you into the air is NOT cool!

Martin Henderson, a 37-year-old dwarf who played a goblin in the Harry Potter films, was paralyzed after a drunken hooligan picked him up and tossed him into the air (and eventually the ground).

The 4-foot 6-inch actor is now putting the blame on English rugby player Mike Tindall and his World Cup teammates who participated in dwarf tossing New Zealand last fall.

Heres a statement released from Buckingham Palace on behalf of Zara's parents:

"The Princess Royal and Captain Mark Phillips are pleased to announce the engagement of their daughter Zara Phillips to Mr. Mike Tindall, son of Mr. Phillip and Mrs. Linda Tindall."

For those innerested in the wedding deets, they have not announced a date as of yet, but we'll keep an ear out.

For those innerested in the engagement ring deets, Zara's ring has been described as "a single solitaire diamond with pavé set diamonds on a split shank, set on a platinum band." Sounds very nice!

Congrats, Zara and Mike! We'll be excited to hear more about the wedding as plans come together!

Ha. We wonder if they'll invite the Obamas.
