Goddlefrood (with a strong sense of deja vu):

It is true we have not seen many AKs *actually* performed. The only 
one that comes close would be Frank Bryce.

The effects of AKs seem reasonably ascertainable though. The Riddles 
were simply lying dead (at table if I recall) and Cedric dropped to 
the ground, unlike in the film version :))

Dumbledore may just have been already dead, but I'm not prepared to 
get into that right now. ;)
