Watching someone you know dying is hardly a pleasant experience. Having to bear news of a loved one's passing is also difficult. Just knowing that a close friend is dead carries with it incomparable pain.
And if those people sport a hat, there's a healthy chance that it's going to be on their chest rather than their head.
Taking off one's hat in response to someone dying is one of the most widely recognized means of paying respect to the deceased. It tends to convey the message that the hat wearer is truly shaken by the dead no longer being among the living. That the mourner is truly offering their sympathies to the deceased.
The hat usually comes off after the mournee is dead (or is believed to be dead), but there are cases of hats being doffed if it's believed that death is inevitable and fast approaching or because the mournee-to-be is undertaking a seemingly suicidal action.
Subtrope of Due to the Dead.
Not to be confused with Dead Hat Shot, where a lone hat is used to convey the demise of the wearer.
As a Death Trope, be prepared for unmarked spoilers!

Song of the South: After tossing Br'er Rabbit into the briar patch (just like he wanted), Br'er Fox takes off his hat out of respect. He then notices that Br'er Bear hasn't taken off his, so he swipes it off his head and forces it onto Bear's chest.

In The Great Mouse Detective, one of Professor Ratigan's mooks pushes his Berserk Button by drunkenly calling him a rat, and Ratigan feeds him to his pet cat Felicia as punishment. After the impromptu execution, one of Ratigan's other mooks is shown holding his hat across his chest.

Bravestarr: "The Price" focuses on Bravestarr trying to take down a drug ring and the problems of two local boys, Brad and his friend Jay, who becomes addicted. After Brad eventually overcomes his fear of being a "snitch" and comes to him, Bravestarr tracks down Jay at the clubhouse. When he discovers Jay overdosed, he takes off his hat as he tells Thirty-Thirty that it's too late to call Doc Clayton.

On the episode of The Muppet Show featuring Peter Sellers, Fozzie tells Kermit that the next scheduled act, Prunella and her Prancing Poultry, has canceled. When Kermit asks why, Fozzie removes his hat and says "yesterday, duck hunting season began." On the plus side, this does lead to Kermit coming out on stage to perform what would become his signature song "Bein' Green".

In Little Fuzzy it's central to the plot whether the "Fuzzies" from the planet Zarathustra (recently colonized by humans) are just cute little animals, or actually sapient beings who must be protected as people under the laws of the Terran Federation. After the brutal killing of a Fuzzy by a human, the other Fuzzies immediately stage a ceremonious funeral for her. As the Fuzzies bury their dead, a watching police officer spontaneously takes off his beret and holds it in his hands while bowing his head, then immediately moves to arrest the killer for the murder of a sapient being.

Parodied in Team Fortress 2. In the promotional video "Meet the Sniper", RED Sniper is shown taking off his hat and bowing his head after stabbing BLU Spy with his machete, demonstrating the "polite" part of his three "standards" that he believes professionals should have: "Be polite; be efficient; have a plan to kill everyone you meet!" In the game proper, this is one of the Sniper's taunts.

In the Doctor Who episode Vincent and the Doctor, as the funeral procession for a young village girl passes The Doctor, Amy Pond, and Vincent Van Gogh, Vincent removes his hat in respect. The mother of the slain girl shoots him a Death Glare, as she (and most of the others) blamed the girl's death on Vincent's "madness."

In Star Trek: Generations, the Enterprise-D crew is holding a nautical-themed celebration in the holodeck for Worf's promotion, so everyone is in full period costume. Partway into the festivities, Picard receives a personal message from Earth. We later learn his brother and nephew have died in a fire, but we immediately know the message is serious when a devastated Picard steps away from the console and removes his hat.

In Alice in Wonderland, Tweedledum and Tweedledee stir up Alice's interest in the story of "The Walrus and the Carpenter" by alluding to "what happened to the oysters," then removing their hats and sobbing "Poor things!" As it turns out, the oysters were all eaten by the Walrus.

As the climax of Coco nears its conclusion, the hat-wearers in the family doff their headwear as Hector starts to die. He gets better, though.

At the end of The Silver Chair, after King Caspian dies just after reuniting with his son Rilian, all the people in the crowd who wear hats, helmets, bonnets or hoods remove them.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Indiana Jones is on top of a tank as it topples over the edge of a cliff. After it falls, Sallah, Indy's father and Marcus Brody rush over to the edge of the cliff and look down. Since it appears that Indy has fallen to his death, Sallah takes off his fez.
