Has anyone ever been punched in the throat?

i like how after the throat rip, throws a spinning back kick to the butt just for good measure
 
I got into mma basically when chuck fought rampage so I've seen alot but there was also alot before then and I can't recall someone ever getting throat punches. You would think if it happened that the guy would drop like a sack of taters. And lastly is it legal? Would of thought with all the wild punches that a throat would be likely at least once
Schaub vs. Rothwell. Schaub was pretty much already out so it didn't really matter much.
 
fighters typically keep their chins tucked
 
Seems ridiculously dangerous... Like a straight punch to the Adam's apple. Pretty sure it'd kill the person, crush their windpipe.
