Disney Villain Death | comment |
Villains in the Disney Animated Canon have an especially curious tendency to exit the film by falling off or out of things. Unfortunately for them, even though they are animated characters, they cannot defy gravity. The varied list of things to fall from includes cliffs, over waterfalls, out of trees, and off the tops of buildings. There is one case of a Disney villain meeting his end by falling up (off a spaceship and into space), and once sideways (off the Chinese Imperial Palace by the aid of a rocket). A surprising number of Disney villains have also been dragged to their doom by demons (up to three depending on how you're counting). Sealing the villain's fate with a fall into nowhere serves three main purposes: The villain gets Ringed Out and meets his end off-screen, allowing the work to depict a death without actually showing it. Please ignore the uncomfortable realization that the villain is still a ghastly mess on the floor, even if we don't have to see it. When the fall is the direct result of something the villain did (and it usually is), it makes his death his own fault and not the hero's. Heck, they may even cry "Take My Hand!" as they (futilely) attempt to Save the Villain. Their hands left bloodless and the land saved, the hero and heroine can get married and live happily ever after and whatnot. It serves the seemingly contradictory needs of both allowing the audience to reasonably believe "Yup, he's definitely dead" and also leaving the door open for a villain's return, if they are particularly popular. (Obviously, this one applies primarily to long-running series more so than single installments.) Note that the work doesn't necessarily need to end for this to happen; in some examples - particularly in animated films - we might get to see the antagonist one more time, just in time for the ending, either with their plans foiled, or hanging out near or with the rest of the cast. Note that none of these cases have to involve a Climbing Climax or a Rooftop Confrontation, though it may involve a One-Winged Angel transformation beforehand (which is by far the second-favorite trope of Disney villains). Sometimes, a fatal wound will be inflicted upon the villain just before taking the plunge (whether caused by the hero or by the villain's own actions) just to ensure that he or she is definitely dead. Or, they could have a boulder or similar heavy object falling down with them, which will surely crush them when they land, or fall into a deadly environment like lava or molten metal, a pit of savage beasts, fire, Hell itself, or even flesh-eating green acid, as water alone won't always do it. Keep in mind that you don't have to be a Disney villain to meet your end this way — many villains and other characters in action movies, cartoons, books, and other works have also met with this fate, although it's fair to say that most heroes have ways to survive taking the long fall. Jabootu's glossary has two rules about such "High Altitude Mortality" in fiction - "Anyone who plunges off a tall structure (a building, a cliff, etc.,) will let loose with a loud death shriek, no matter how much damage he takes before the fall." "No one in any sort of raised position will ever die without falling to the ground. This, mysteriously, using involves falling forward after being shot, despite the fact that the human body naturally falls backwards and that the impact of being shot would seem to add to this tendency." Extremely apparent in Disney's "Bronze Age" (the string of late-80s-90s hits). Not to be confused with Disney Death. It seems only good guys get to have those (there is a villainous variant, but Disney doesn't use it often), though it can overlap in subversions of the trope. There is also the non-villainous, non-conflict related variation of the trope, where a character decides to jump off a high ledge due to some stupid idea they have (e.g., thinking they'd fly), or through being Driven to Suicide. May involve a Ring Out, Noose Catch, or Death Flight. Smokestack Drop is a Sub-Trope. See also High-Altitude Interrogation and Unhand Them, Villain!, as well as Death by Falling Over. When Recycled In Space, it's Thrown Out the Airlock. Video game examples can relate to Ring-Out Boss. As this is a Death Trope, all spoilers will be unmarked ahead in the examples below.

Narbonic: Helen Narbon (the original) winds up falling off a ledge into a thousand-foot waterfall. She's not really dead — the other cast members never saw the body. The author admits to just liking the trope for its symbolic invocation of hubris (which works great for Mad Scientists); near the end of the strip, Helen Narbon the second is knocked off a floating island. She's not dead either, but in an alternate timeline she would have been injured and wound up as a Brain in a Jar. | |

Subverted in Megamind. The film starts with the titular Villain Protagonist seemingly falling to his death, before flashing back to his Start of Darkness and explaining how he got there. By the time it catches up, not only is he no longer a villain anymore, he also figures out a way to survive the fall and save the day. | |

The Legend of Spyro: A New Dawn has the Disc One Final Bosses, Boss Kaze and Empress Tyrania, go out this way. Boss Kaze falls off the side of a mountain after his fight with Pyrus and Delilah, and Tyrania falls out of the sky after her heart is destroyed by the heroes (so it technically wasn't what killed her). Delilah promptly lampshades all the ways Kaze's death could've killed him, grossing Pyrus out. | |

Subverted in The City Without Memory: Veri-Meri, the closest the book has to a Big Bad, falls into a deep well with a splash, doesn't get out, and another antagonist (who didn't like him at all) says "oh, whatever, Death Equals Redemption". Then, the epilogue reveals Veri-Meri is alive and well (though claims to have reformed), with no hints on how he actually survived. | |

Redwall has a variation. So far, in 21 books, The Sword of Martin the Warrior has only been used twice to directly kill the Big Bad, and once in the most recent book, The Sable Quean. They still can get crushed under giant bells (Cluny from Redwall), drown (Tsarmina from Mossflower, Agarnu from Triss), fall down a hole (Slagar from Mattimeo), etc. | |

Chocoholic Mysteries: Not exactly a villain, but in Bear Burglary, it's explained that fifteen years before, Congressman Vic VanHorn had been out walking down to the lakeshore during a storm when the embankment gave way under him. As a result, he fell, hit his head on something, and died. Then subverted when it turns out this was a lie. He'd died when a china cabinet fell on his head after his son Hart, acting in defense of Hart's mother, punched Vic into said china cabinet. To cover it up and make Vic's death look like an accident, Hart and his mother threw the body over the embankment and then destroyed as much of the cabinet in the fireplace as they could. | |

Muhammad Hassan fell victim to this trope after his match with The Undertaker at The Great American Bash. After the match, Undertaker tore off several of the panels covering the stage and giving him a Last Ride through the hole, complete with a rather disturbing sounding crash a few seconds later. While other wrestlers have taken falls from high heights as part of their match, sometimes being put out of action, this was meant in storyline to kill off the character, as UPN forced the WWE to remove him from the air. | |

In Splinter of the Mind's Eye, Luke and Leia hide in a great bottomless-seeming well from a monstrous wormlike wandrella, which finds them and tries to follow, but ends up falling down the well. At the end of the book, Darth Vader ends up falling into another well, but Luke is immediately certain that while he's out of the fight, he's still alive. | |

In Fist of the North Star, some villains get this fate. The most famous was Amiba who was dropped from his tower after Kenshiro strikes his power points then blows up in midair. Shin also qualifies, as he throws himself from his palace to prevent his body from blowing up following his fight with Kenshiro. | |

From Les Misérables, we have Inspector Javert, who jumps off a bridge. The 2012 film adaptation upped it by including a sickening CRACK as he hits a ledge in the river. Claude Frollo falls to his death in The Hunchback of Notre Dame. When Quasimodo sees him laughing at Esmeralda's hanging, he pushes him off the cathedral. A gargoyle stops his fall, and he struggles to save himself, but ultimately gives up the fight and lets go. He falls onto a roof, rolls off and hits the pavement below, meeting his end. |

Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio: Count Volpe suffers this fate when he's wrestling with his much-abused monkey Spazzatura, sending them both plunging off a cliff. Spazzatura lands in the water; Volpe lands on the rocks. In a particularly gruesome subversion of this trope's usual offscreen nature, though, there's no Gory Discretion Shot applied. We see Volpe hit the rocks and die, brutally. | |

Dragon Ball: During a filler scene in the first episode of Dragon Ball, a sebrtooth tiger ends up falling off a cliff while trying to eat Goku. General White gets this by being flung from Muscle Tower by Android 8. It is not likely he would survive. Captain Yellow also falls to his death when Goku punches out his plane. Pilaf and his gang also subvert this, as they are thrown by King Piccolo when they are no longer useful to him, but survive. The Dragon from the second DBZ movie subverts this trope, as he falls from a great height but explodes on the way down. Several subversions appear through Dragon Ball Super's "Universe Survival" saga, as the warriors participating in the Tournament of Power are eliminated only by getting thrown off the stage (which is a floating arena in a void), to which they are teleported to spectator stands. |

In the early Batman comics, including his first appearance in Batman #1, the Joker did this at least four times, but always survived. In "Mad Love" from The Batman Adventures, he even screams "Not agaaaaaain!" as he falls in a smokestack (a reference to his origin story of falling in a vat of chemicals after a fight with Bats). Lampshaded in the Paul Dini-written issue of Detective Comics #826, where Robin kicks the Joker out of a moving car off of a bridge. Neither he nor Batman think it likely that he's dead, but at least he'll be out of commission for a good couple of weeks, which is really the best you could've hoped for. |

Old West: A subverted example occurs with Henry when Dufayel turns against him. With some assistance from Ramirez Arvenga, the fox shoots the kingsnake out of his office window. Dufayel and Arvenga assume Henry to have died, but he survives and discreetly flees to have his revenge another day. Two downplayed examples occur with Kepper and Dufayel himself during the Final Battle. Kepper's shot in the heart by Delilah Rangler, and he falls off a balcony. Dufayel's filled with bullets by Rattlesnake Jake, after which he falls into a dark engine pit of his car hideout. |

Discworld examples: At the end of Wyrd Sisters, after Duke Felmet has gone over the edge and started believing himself to be a ghost, he goes over the edge of a parapet while dramatically ranting to Death about how he plans to haunt Lancre Castle. Near the end of Guards! Guards!, the Night Watch has the bad guy cornered, and Captain Vimes orders Constable Carrot to "throw the book at him". Carrot, who was raised by dwarves and has trouble with metaphors, hurls his copy of "The Laws and Ordinances of the Cities of Ankh and Morpork" at the villain, knocking him over a ledge. In Hogfather, Teatime's first death comes about from a fall. However, it's one he suffered when hanging on to Susan's leg, who asked herself "Is this guy crazy enough to kill the person holding him?" and based on the obvious answer, kicked him. |

A bad guy in High Time to Kill tries to make Bond and Dr. Kendall jump off from a cliff of a mountain since it's "much more fun" than just shooting them, but after a brief struggle, ends up going over it himself. Margareta Piel in DoubleShot is shot in the novel's climactic six seconds, and falls screaming through a window to the street below. |

Whilst trying to escape from an angry mob, he tries to lower himself down from his hiding place via a rope, loses his balance, falls, and the rope catches his neck and hangs him. His dog jumps at his master, misses, and strikes his head against a stone, dashing out his brains. Ouch! The dog's death was more gruesome than his master's. | |

The Order of the Stick has a non-lethal variant. His evil father Tarquin is begging Elan to pull him up from the railing of a Cool Airship, but he refuses and instead lets him fall. As an RPG Mechanics 'Verse, Tarquin takes alot of damage from the fall, but survives since he's a high level fighter with more than enough HP left (as Elan points out as an Ironic Echo to when Tarquin earlier stabbed through him to kill someone behind him). However, his plotline is left with no ending and he himself is dismissed as an irrelevant distraction from the real plot, which to Tarquin is much more devestating than death (especially since Death Is Cheap and would just vallidate his opinion that he's the main villain). | |

He dies in the anime, but he survives in the Sequel Series Ginga Densetsu Weed. Speaking of Ginga Densetsu Weed, Kaibutsu falls off a cliff after Weed headbutts him down. But it wasn't the fall that killed him; it was a tree branch. |

Subverted in Guardian Cats and the Lost Books of Alexandria. While fighting Marco, Bait slips off the library roof during a thunderstorm and falls sixty feet to his death. A crack of thunder made him lose his balance. A few moments later it turns out that he survived (or at least, that he was brought back to life). | |

The Mall (2018): At the end of Issue #1, a balding mobster who attacked Leonard Cardini is killed by being knocked off the second floor of the mall and falling to his death. The last image of the comic is him lying on the floor below, dead, with two pools of blood coming from him (one from the bullet wound in his leg, and the other from his head). | |

Occurs quite a few times in The Lion King Adventures: Hago falls into searing flames in Friends to the End. In Mtumwa Strikes Back, Mtumwa attempts to knock Nala from a cliff, but ends up sailing past her and falling himself. In The Royal Challenge, Simba battles Hila and kicks him from a cliff. In Clone Wars, the clones of the cubs are killed when Clone Nala finally accepts that she's not real, crosses the Despair Event Horizon, and tackles the other clones off of a cliff. The Interceptor throws Shocker into boiling lava in The Master Plan. Being immortal, he comes back. Virusi falls into the lava pit surrounding Pride Rock in The Final Task. At the climax of The End, Simba ends the Final Battle with The Writer by grabbing him and jumping off of Pride Rock, mortally wounding them both. The Writer dies first, allowing the universe to reboot, healing Simba in the process. |

The titular ghost says there's a bottom, but it's a long, long way down. A shapeshifting villain, trying many forms but too wounded to be able to use them properly, falls down it, and Tash actually says No One Could Survive That!. He does. | |

In Groosham Grange, a school inspector is tortured by Miss Windergast's black voodoo magic (namely a Voodoo Doll) in an attempt to prevent him from discovering the truth about the school and he ultimately falls off a cliff to his death. This example of the trope is a subversion as the school inspector was not a villain. | |

Batman: In the early Batman comics, including his first appearance in Batman #1, the Joker did this at least four times, but always survived. In "Mad Love" from The Batman Adventures, he even screams "Not agaaaaaain!" as he falls in a smokestack (a reference to his origin story of falling in a vat of chemicals after a fight with Bats). Lampshaded in the Paul Dini-written issue of Detective Comics #826, where Robin kicks the Joker out of a moving car off of a bridge. Neither he nor Batman think it likely that he's dead, but at least he'll be out of commission for a good couple of weeks, which is really the best you could've hoped for. In Detective Comics #27, Starter Villain Alfred Stryker was knocked into a vat of acid during his scuffle with Batman. In Batman: Black and White, the villain of "Heroes", a Nazi spy, gets in a fight with the Batman at the top of a skyscraper, and falls to his death. In Batman: Gordon of Gotham, when Gordon's ally, Sheriff "Shotgun" Smith, is captured and tortured, he throws himself against his main captor, knocking them both out of a third floor window. The villain, Captain Daugherty's son, dies in the process of breaking Smith's fall. |

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing featured an awesome variant in an early episode when Lady Une dumps General Septem, the last surviving Alliance general, from the bottom of an airborne transport plane and then shoots him in the head while he's falling. Septem had just broadcast his condemnation of the Gundam pilots' assassination of the rest of the Alliance leadership which had decided to sue for peace and total disarmament, but since OZ was simultaneously staging a coup of the Alliance, Septem had outlived his usefulness. | |

In Every Breath You Take, Virginia Wakeling wasn’t a bad person yet met her end by falling from the roof of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Sharptooth's demise in The Land Before Time is actually quite an alarming variation (especially if the viewer is only familiar with the Lighter and Softer sequels): Littlefoot and his herd purposefully toss him off a cliff into a lake and drop a rock on him, causing him to drown. And then, just to make the audience really weirded out, Petrie gets a Disney Death. In the sequels, tossing the film's resident sharpteeth (sharptooths?) down cliffs or pushing something to fall on their head (sometimes both) is a common way to dispatch them. It's almost a once-a-movie thing. |

Kirby: Right Back at Ya!: In the second episode, Yokozuna Demon Beast Blocky carelessly breaks off a piece of the cliff that Stone Kirby is standing on to trick him and use his weight against him, causing them both to plunge into the sea. Kirby, of course, swims back up to the surface and everybody other than Dedede and Escargoon cheers for him. Blocky, on the other hand, is too heavy to swim and thus is stuck sinking to the bottom of the sea. Subverted with fellow Demon Beast Masher. In later episode "Monster Management", Masher walked off the ramparts and fell into the ground below. He survived the fall, of course, and got out of the pothole he made when he landed. He was still destroyed later by Fighter Kirby and Knuckle Joe, of course. Also subverted with Demon Bonkers in much later episode "Goin' Bonkers". After Hammer Kirby lands one last whack from his hammer onto Bonkers' head, he falls off the tower of Dedede's castle that he was holding on to, and upon hitting the ground and making another pothole, he reverts back to his normal self, still alive and well. Wheelie, the transformed form of Beat / Fang, suffers this near the end of the two-parter "Born to Be Mild", falling as the Dedede Speedway racing stadium crumbles and getting buried in the rubble. Heavy Anaconda in the sixth-to-last episode, "Frog Wild", gets this by getting burned by Fire Kirby's Burning Attack and Fireball Spin moves and then falling. |

Red vs. Blue: This is how The Meta finally bites it at the very end of Revelations. Sarge attaches him to a wrecked Warthog via a tow cable, and Grif and Sarge push the Warthog off a cliff, taking the Meta with it. Due to damage his suit sustained during the previous battle, he drowned. For extra irony points, this is what he did to his first victim, Agent Carolina, down to being thrown off the very same cliff. Season 9 also shows that, back when he was Agent Maine, he was acrophobic. In the climax of The Chorus Trilogy, Felix dies by a grenade explosion tossing him out of the tall building he was in. His death is confirmed by Locus being able to use his sword afterwards. |

However, it's ultimately averted at the end of the movie where Steele not only survives the movie's events, but is ultimately branded as a hated outcast by the entire village once all of his crimes are finally exposed. | |

The Pony POV Series side collection 7 Dreams/Nightmare has this happen to the de facto Big Bad of Clover's story: the Diamond Dog Fluffy the Terrible (yes, really) is about to kill her in a shack atop the Canterhorn, when the dragon Bahamut happens to land directly atop of them, sending the whole shack, and Fluffy, tumbling off the side of the mountain. Clover later finds what's implied to be his remains at the bottom of the mountain. According to Loose Canon, the G1 villain Somnambula ultimately met her end this way when G1 Shady accidentally knocked her off of a opera theater balcony, sending her falling to her death. As shown in the flashback episode about the G1 era's Final Battle, this was the end of Ashley, one of Hydia's family members, when Katrina and Rep knocked her off her mount with a Fastball Special while she was in mid-flight. |

Claude Frollo falls to his death in The Hunchback of Notre Dame. When Quasimodo sees him laughing at Esmeralda's hanging, he pushes him off the cathedral. A gargoyle stops his fall, and he struggles to save himself, but ultimately gives up the fight and lets go. He falls onto a roof, rolls off and hits the pavement below, meeting his end. | |

In A Song of Ice and Fire, this is the fate of anyone thrown out of the Moon Door at The Eyrie (which is a castle situated on a high mountain cliff: the moon door is an opening in the throne room leading to a drop of at least a thousand feet). In the third book A Storm of Swords Littlefinger kills Lysa Arryn using the moon door, shoving her out and showing his true villainous nature openly for the first time. | |

Preacher: Allfather D'Aronique. Realizing that Starr had rigged the entire base of Masada with explosives, the human wrecking ball tried to escape via his personal chopper. Sadly for him, Starr managed to intercept and hijack the helicopter in midair. During the struggle, Starr pushed the massive leader of the Grail to his death. Eisenstein. The bureaucratic soul of the Grail knew that Starr had a hand — or rather a whole arm — in the demise of the Allfather. And Starr knew that as long as there was any kind of lead, Eisenstein would be able to track him to the ends of the Earth. After trying everything to dispose of him, from car bombs to snipers and ninjas, Starr was able to corner Eisenstein in a building in San Francisco and successfully threw the little man off the rooftop. |

Tolkien's Legendarium: Gollum falls to his death in The Lord of the Rings. This is the essential part of the eucatastrophe ending, as the accident also takes the One Ring into the Cracks of Doom, destroying it. Eöl gets executed this way in The Silmarillion, and for no particularly valid reason curses his son Maeglin to die the same way. Glorfindel and the Balrog fought and fell off a cliff together in The Silmarillion/The Fall of Gondolin years before J. R. R. Tolkien decided to have Gandalf and another Balrog do the same (some 7,000 years before, in-universe). |

Rise of the Galeforces: Simultaneously played straight and subverted in the fic itself, as Velociripper meets his end, complete with a Big "NO!", by being dropped by Adam and Violet off the edge of the harbor pier... directly into a mosasaur's waiting maw. This death is undone, however, in the events in the setting of the Protectors of the Plot Continuum following the sporking of the fic by its own author, who apparently felt sorry for Velociripper after the fact. Thus, the mosasaur vomits his skeleton back out after it gets nauseated by being transported across dimensions by Falchion, the (newest) self-insert of his creator, and after his Healing Factor previously demonstrated in the fic itself brings him Back from the Dead, Falchion talks him into pulling a Heel–Face Turn and the two of them make amends. | |

During Luke and Lumiya's final duel, the latter gets knocked over a ledge and it looks like this trope is going to be her fate, but Luke grabs her hand and pulls her back up... only to promptly cleave her head off with his lightsaber. By this point, Luke had seen plenty of people miraculously survive falls just like that, and he sure as hell wasn't about to let the woman who murdered his wife get away like that. | |

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: The first volume ends with this happening to the Big Bad Moriarty, who it had already happened to before. Hmmm. Like the Treasure Planet example, he fell up. In addition, after the book proper is over, there's a small splash page featuring the silhouette of his corpse continually floating, presumably in space. In the Minions of the Moon text story in Century: 1910, during a trip through space, Mina comes across his corpse, still clutching the cavorite. |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Subverted by Dio Brando. It looks like he's fallen to his death after Jonathan defeats him by destroying the his vampire body with Hamon, but Dio survives by cutting off his head before being destroyed completely. Interesting variant with Part 2's Big Bad, Kars. Instead of falling to his demise, he's blasted upward into space after Joseph accidentally sets off a volcano. And now that Kars is immortal, and his body completely petrified in response to the cool vaccum of space, he's forever trapped in a Fate Worse than Death. Play straight with Part 5's penultimate villain, Cioccolata. Giorno gives Cioccolata a lengthy beatdown with Gold Experience and sends the Mad Doctor plummeting into a garbage truck. Quite fitting, since he was, as Giorno put it, a "piece of shit". |

Subverted in Chicken Run, where Mrs. Tweedy is defeated by falling off an airplane. She survives the fall itself, but is (possibly) killed by the effects of it; the fall triggers a massive explosion, which destroys a barn, which causes the door of said barn to fall on top of her- and it looks as if her husband may have pushed the door on top of her. Then totally subverted when the sequel reveals that the door didn’t kill her either and she’s back in action with chicken farming. | |

The most famous literary example is probably the Sherlock Holmes story The Final Problem*link goes to the E-book), in which Professor Moriarty falls off a cliff — but he takes Sherlock Holmes down with him!

Used with an unusual variant for the villain of The Adventures of the American Rabbit who's a bird. They show him gradually getting very tired and his wings becoming covered with snow and eventually he ends up falling/gliding very slowly about twenty feet, landing in snow, with the sound effect when he hits a gentle "puff", clearly demonstrating that it wasn't the fall that killed him but rather the exhaustion along with hypothermia. | |

His end came when, during an air battle with Iron Man, he was knocked from his winged horse and fell a good distance to the ground. Interestingly, Garrett survived for quite some time and summoned his nephew, Dane Whitman, encouraging him to take up the mantle of the Black Knight and restore its name before passing away from his injuries. | |

Judge Dredd: "The Day The Law Died" ends with Fergee charging Judge Cal and his lackeys atop the Statue of Judgment. Cal's lackeys manage to mortally wound Fergee, but his momentum is enough that he's able to grab Cal and minions and leap off the statue. Even as he plummets to his death, Cal is so deranged that he believes he can order gravity not to affect him. He's wrong. At the end of "The Pit" arc, disgraced ex-Judge Hal Jordan is killed off after he kidnaps Judge DeMarco during a massive riot so he can extort money from her (she is the heiress to a big fortune), but is kicked out off the hovercar by DeMarco. He falls to his death while clutching a bag of money, crushing two rioters in the process. |

The Giant Mouse of Minsk chases Warren T. Rat's gang off a pier in An American Tail. They don't die, but they're stranded clinging to the anchor of a boat bound all the way from New York City to Hong Kong. For anyone who hasn't gotten the problems with this, unless they could find a way to climb up the anchor onto the deck of the ship, they would have to resort to cannibalism to avoid starvation, and would very easily die of exposure. And that's assuming they don't have to drop anchor out at sea. |

As a result, the two of them are hit by that boulder and sent falling into the Abyss. Since Saetwo survived, and they Never Found the Body, it's speculated in-universe that he may have survived as well; either way, however, he's never seen again. | |

Nina Tanleven: Subverted and inverted in The Ghost in the Third Row. The villain, Lydia Crane (real name: Lydia Heron) survives falling off a balcony, albeit with several broken bones. It's the heroic Pop (AKA Edward Parker, the man whom she believed had framed her father for the crime he committed), who tried to pull her back when she was about to fall and went over the edge with her, who dies from the fall. Also subverted in The Ghost Wore Gray. While Porter Markson falls into what was believed to be Captain Gray's grave, he survives the fall itself, turning over and trying to climb forward to get out. He's finished off when the tombstone falls forward onto him. |

Pokémon: The Series: Grings Kodai, the Big Bad of Pokémon: Zoroark: Master of Illusions, falls from a great height in both the anime and manga, but it's subverted in the anime, where he survives to endure a Humiliation Conga. In the manga, however, Zoroark chases him off the top of the stadium wall (a much greater height) with illusionary vines, sending him falling to his death. Subverted with The Iron Masked Marauder from Pokémon 4Ever, who falls from thousands of feet in the air when Pikachu shocks him while he tries to fly away with Celebi on his jet pack, but he lands in a tree and survives. Psycho for Hire Hunter J is presumed dead after her airship falls into Lake Valor, with a Dead Hat Shot to boot shortly before it explodes. Always averted with Team Rocket, whose Joker Immunity enables them to survive virtually anything. Some of their "blasting off" scenes involve them falling into a gorge, and at least two falls were ones that they themselves thought would kill them (once in Haunter Versus Kadabra, and again in the second movie). But the one that takes the cake for inverting this trope in the name of Joker Immunity is in the episode Shell Shock, in which a boulder (which would have killed Ash and the gang) is thrown off a cliff by the Machoke, sending James falling into the gorge WITH THE BOULDER STILL ON TOP OF HIM (the same kind of fall that killed the Big Bad of Disney's first animated film), yet he turns up unharmed in his next scene. |

Star Wars Legends: In Splinter of the Mind's Eye, Luke and Leia hide in a great bottomless-seeming well from a monstrous wormlike wandrella, which finds them and tries to follow, but ends up falling down the well. At the end of the book, Darth Vader ends up falling into another well, but Luke is immediately certain that while he's out of the fight, he's still alive. A space station in Galaxy of Fear: Ghost of the Jedi has a deep ventilation shaft whose bottom none of the local treasure hunters have seen. The titular ghost says there's a bottom, but it's a long, long way down. A shapeshifting villain, trying many forms but too wounded to be able to use them properly, falls down it, and Tash actually says No One Could Survive That!. He does. Subverted in Star Wars: Kenobi. It appears that Orrin Gault falls to his death when his speeder drives off a cliff, but he survives... paralyzed from the waist down, and is put to work by the Tuskens he tried to have killed. Darkly subverted in Legacy of the Force. During Luke and Lumiya's final duel, the latter gets knocked over a ledge and it looks like this trope is going to be her fate, but Luke grabs her hand and pulls her back up... only to promptly cleave her head off with his lightsaber. By this point, Luke had seen plenty of people miraculously survive falls just like that, and he sure as hell wasn't about to let the woman who murdered his wife get away like that. |

The Movie: Doesn't involve Scheck himself, as he's already been cuffed and thrown into a police truck, but Grandpa's back up plan to blow a hole in the street to protect the neighborhood (in case Arnold failed) winds up backfiring anyway when the explosives go off under the FTI information building, causing the whole thing (along with the big TV with footage of Scheck being played) to collapse and fall down. Hey Arnold! The Jungle Movie: Lasombra is shot with a poison dart and appears to suffer this fate with the cliff. However, he climbs back up (now a sickly green color) and tries to kill Arnold when the Corazon falls off the cliff, but then succumbs to the poison and falls for real this time. |

Narrowly averted in the infamous "Hell in a Cell" match at the 1998 "King of the Ring" pay-per-view, where Mick Foley — when he had his Mankind gimmick — not once but twice took severe falls. The first was the now-legendary one, where his opponent, The Undertaker, threw him off the top of the cage, with Foley crashing through the Spanish Announcers' Table and onto the arena floor. Foley, it was said, was knocked unconscious after taking the fall, and even Jim Ross exclaimed, "Good God almighty! Good God almighty! That killed him! As God as my witness, he is broken in half!" Miraculously, Foley recovered, rallied to beat down Undertaker before Undertaker came back to give Mankind his second bump of the night — being chokeslammed through the top of the Hell in a Cell structure and onto a pile of thumbtacks on the mat below; this fall also knocked Foley unconscious, leading the Undertaker to believe at first that Foley had been fatally injured. | |

In Cesare - Il Creatore che ha distrutto, the Florentine traitor Draghignazzo falls off a roof to his death while trying to escape after his guilt is discovered. In the musical adaptation, however, he dies by his own Poison Ring. In either case, he lives long enough to have a quick debate with Cesare's right-hand man Miguel about whether or not commoners like them can ever trust the rich or nobles, showing that Miguel's bond with Cesare is deeper than Draghignazzo's was with Giovanni de'Medici, whom he betrayed. | |

The Master Builder, written by Henrik Ibsen. The main character, Hallvard Solness, falls from a high tower at the end of the play, promptly losing his life when he cracks his skull against a rock. Doubles with Family-Unfriendly Death. And as main characters go, he is not of the heroic type. | |
