Anyone can be sent to the shadow realm, this is often the result of coming up against a dirty driver that likes to ram other drivers, cut corners, and/or seek unwarranted revenge through uncontained frustration.

What's the most embarrassing however, is sending yourself to the shadow realm. This is often achieved by unsuccessfully navigating tight chicanes such as "The Chicane Of Death" in Gran Turismo 6, or a simple lack of concentration through a difficult part of the track.

Being Sent to The Shadow Realm 

A term typically used while playing fighting/platformer games. This entails being hit off-stage and losing a stock. Unlike "Being Sent to Brazil", this occurrence involves the fighter being sent down at a 90° angle to the floor. The most common occurrence of this is in the Super Smash Bros. franchise, in which one fighter can strike the other using a certain move that spikes the opponent straight down (this is referred to as a "meteor smash" by the creators of the game).
"There's nothing more embarrassing than being sent to The Shadow Realm after talking smack to your opponent, trust me it's a nasty experience."

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
