A good defense is the best offense? A good offense is the best defense? Why not both? This is a situation involving an enemy charging at the hero, who then defensively puts a nasty, pointy surprise in front of them. Result: The enemy runs onto the pointy end, and there may be a moment where the hero and their enemy stare at each other before they reveal that the foe has just killed themselves. By waiting until the last moment to reveal the victor of the battle—when the hero and the enemy are close enough to touch—the situation comes to an exciting and dramatic conclusion. This trope does not apply to every impalement. It only applies if the enemy is impaled by their own momentum without the defender needing to move from their position. Sub-trope of Impaled with Extreme Prejudice, Inertia Is a Cruel Mistress, and when the one impaled is a villain, Self-Disposing Villain. Also overlaps with Deadly Dodging, when the dodging results in the enemy impaling himself on something. It is the basis of classic Anti-Cavalry tactics like pikemen. Sometimes, when other movement methods are involved, you can have Telefrag instead. Compare Spikes of Doom and The Spiny. See also Bullfight Boss. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. Examples |

Sherlock Holmes (2009): In the beginning, this almost happens to Watson. Watson tries to charge the villain Lord Blackwood, but Holmes stops him and reveals Blackwood was holding a blade made of glass so it is almost invisible. If Watson had kept going, he would have been impaled through the eye. | |

Mossflower features Skipper of Otters taking vengeance on Tsarmina's chief minion Cludd by setting up several javelins in soft ground and challenging Cludd to a fight to the death. When he's pinned Cludd, he wraps him up in his cloak and flings him into the air, causing him to come down directly onto the javelins. The author then points out that otters point their javelins on both ends. | |

Played straighter in Saruman's death scene, which only appears in the extended edition of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. Saruman falls from the top of Orthanc onto a waterwheel that for some inexplicable reason is decorated with long spikes. He lands on his back on one of the spikes, and the wheel turns to grind his body into the muck underneath. | |

In the movie Brother Bear, Kenai is fighting a bear and gets knocked on the ground. When it charges at him, he grabs his spear. Rather than showing what happens, it shows the mountain from a distance and the viewer hears the bear roar one last time, and then it shows that Kenai has survived. Near the end of the movie, Denahi does this while Kenai runs to them to prevent his brother from harming Koda. Like with the bear Kenai kills, it cuts to the mountain from a distance and the bears from the Salmon Run seeing the lights resulting from this. Fortunately, the spear doesn't kill Kenai because Sitka's eagle spirit had swooped in just in time. Defied in Brother Bear 2: When Kenai and Nita don't recognize each other (Kenai mistaking Nita for a hunter and Nita mistaking Kenai for a rogue bear), she grabs her spear and holds it out to defend herself when he charges at her. Kenai, however, has already learned this trick and swipes the spear away. |

After kicking arse for the Lord in Braindead, Badass Preacher Father McGruder's effort is unfortunately put to an end when he goes to finish off a zombie with a flying kick. The zombie moves out of the way, and he winds up impaled on the hand of a stone angel statue on a tombstone. He becomes a zombie shortly afterwards because after he punted off one's head, the head came back down and bit him in the arm. | |

In Santo y Blue Demon contra Drácula y el Hombre Lobo, the monsters maintain a pit with wooden stakes at the bottom, apparently for the sole purpose of entertaining themselves by making captives try to cross it on a narrow plank, as werewolves shake it back and forth. They force a captive Blue Demon to do this. Ultimately, this proves to be an extremely poor interior design decision. | |

God Slaying Blade Works: When Shirou defeats Hades but spares his life, Hades angrily jumps into Shirou's sword before giving his Dying Curse. After Shirou Emiya and Mordred disarm each other, Mordred angrily lunges at him, but Shirou summons Excalibur into his hand, causing him to be impaled. When Ahriman, who is possessing Illya, is losing against Godou, he decides to throw himself onto Godou's sword Ame no Murakumo out of spite, saying that by killing Illya, he'll at least hurt Shirou. Fortunately, at the last second, Godou has Ame no Murakumo absorb the properties of the Warrior Authority, turning into a sword that cuts the soul and not flesh. So when they get impaled, Ahriman was the only one who was hurt. |

One episode of The Twilight Zone (1985) is "The Once and Future King", wherein Gary Pitkin, an Elvis impersonator, gets transported to 1953, where he meets the real Elvis Presley. At first, Elvis thinks Gary is his stillborn brother Jesse, Back from the Dead. However, when Gary begins coaching Elvis about his music, Elvis is reviled. The two men begin to fight, breaking a guitar at the neck. Then Elvis lunges at Gary; Gary rolls aside, and Elvis impales himself fatally on the jagged guitar neck. | |

A common hazard throughout the Tomb Raider series are pits of spikes on which Lara can be impaled and instantly killed. Such deaths get even more gruesome in the 2013 reboot due to Lara's more realistic character model and animation. Failing to avoid certain hazards can result in Lara being impaled through the neck. And it gets even worse because chances are during the river sequence you will see this several times before you finally get through it (watching her struggle helplessly for a moment before finally dying doesn't help). Ditto for the parachute sequence where Lara gets impaled through the stomach by a tree branch. This is accompanied by a non-fatal example at the very beginning of the game, in which Lara is impaled on a piece of rebar after a fall. One of the very first QTEs in the game involves pulling the offending piece of metal out of her side. |

Earthdawn Combat chapter. One of the techniques in the Mounted Combat section is "Setting Against A Charge". If a character knows a Charging Attack is coming and has a spear or lance available, he can make a Melee Weapons Test. If he succeeds, he hits the charging opponent and does damage before the opponent can attack. If he succeeds really well, he can knock the opponent off his steed. | |

Early editions of Dungeons & Dragons: If a PC set a long weapon (such as a spear) in preparation for an opponent's charge and succeeded in hitting the charging opponent, they would do double normal weapon damage, possibly killing the opponent. This is carried over in Pathfinder: weapons with the brace special ability (mostly polearms) can deal extra damage to charging opponents. |

In the final battle of Pacific Rim, Raiju, a Lightning Bruiser Kaiju who has already ripped off one of Gipsy Danger's arms, charges at the crippled Jaeger with incredible speed. Gipsy, however, deploys the sword in its other arm and pierces it out just before Raiju hits it. The monster ends up piercing itself on Gipsy's sword so hard that the kaiju is completely sliced in half, from head to tail. | |

In The Name of the Rose (though not in the original Eco novel), enraged peasants push Inquisitor Bernardo Guy's wagon off a cliff, and he is impaled on a piece of farm equipment. A harrow to be precise. Yes it was a "harrowing" experience for him. | |

Berserk: Guts and Casca each made their first kill at a young age by being attacked and holding out a sword so their attacker stabbed themselves under their own momentum: In his first battle at age nine, Guts was struck to the ground by a grown-up attacker but held out his blade as he fell, causing his charging foe to skewer his neck on the outstretched sword. Two years later, Guts accidentally killed Gambino in the same fashion while he was just trying to defend himself. Casca was just a twelve year old peasant girl when a wicked nobleman took her in under the pretense of making her a servant, and attempted to rape her. Griffith intervened like a Knight in Shining Armor, but instead of saving her himself he threw his weapon to her and told her to take it if she had something worth protecting. Casca and the nobleman dived for the sword at the same time, and she grabbed it so that the nobleman fell on top of her and ran himself through. In her own words, |

One case in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice has a victim run his body onto the sword a statue is holding. He does this to throw off the country's court system, which will use a form of spirit channeling to view the last thing he saw, hoping they will interpret it as the defendant (in costume) attacking him. | |

The Lordofthe Rings: Subverted in The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers: The Rohirrim cavalry charges down a steep incline where orc pikemen are massing. However, the sun rises just in time for the orcs to be dazzled, and the charge completely breaks the line apart. Played straight earlier, when Aragorn leads an elven counter-charge. At least one elf is shown impaling himself on an orc pike, while Aragorn swats one aside with his sword just before it happens to him. Played straighter in Saruman's death scene, which only appears in the extended edition of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. Saruman falls from the top of Orthanc onto a waterwheel that for some inexplicable reason is decorated with long spikes. He lands on his back on one of the spikes, and the wheel turns to grind his body into the muck underneath. |

In the first Count Yorga move, this happens twice. The first time is when one of the hunters, Micheal, reaches the room where Yorga is holding his girlfriend, Donna, and is confronted but by Yorga and one of his vampire brides (who happens to be Donna's now vampirized mother). As Michel holds them at stake point and tries to get Donna to come to him, Yorga throws said bride onto the stake as a distraction so he can escape. Not long after, Yorga charges at Micheal once he exits out of the room, intending to catch him by surprise and choke him to death. However Micheal was holding the remains of said stake that he had broken off when he attempted it, causing Yorga to run right into it and impale himself. | |

There was a story on 1000 Ways to Die about an overzealous gym teacher lecturing his students about throwing a javelin. This doesn't end how you think it does. After throwing the javelin, the teacher ran to get it back, but was looking over his shoulder while doing so, not looking where he was going. At the very last moment he turned around, and was stabbed through the right eye up into his brain by the end of the javelin. He was killed instantly, but was held standing upright by the javelin in his head, which was gruesome for the students to look at when they eventually came over to see why he was just standing there. Also an example of Eye Scream. | |

In Pokémon, the moves 'Spiky Shield' and 'Baneful Bunker' make the user protect itself from damage by protecting themselves with spikes. Should its enemy still try to come in contact with it, said enemy will take damage from the spikes or get inflicted with poison status respectively. The abilities 'Iron Barbs' and 'Rough Skin', and the 'Rocky Helmet' hold item, operate off a similar principle to 'Spiky Shield' above, though they don't protect the user from taking damage themselves. |

In JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind, this is how Ghiaccio is defeated. Mista, confronted with his power to throw bullets back at the shooter, lines him up with a broken metal pole and fires on him. The bullets hit Mista, but at the same time, Newton's Second Law pushes Ghiaccio backwards, which runs him straight into a jagged part of the pole. Neck-first. Ghiaccio temporarily manages to save himself by freezing his own blood to support himself, only for Giorno to show up at the last second to save Mista, using a flurry of kicks from his Stand, Gold Experience, to pierce Ghiaccio's neck all the way through. | |

In The Bible, the fast-running warrior Asahel is killed this way while pursuing a fleeing Abner. When Asahel refuses to break off the chase, Abner stops and thrusts out the end of his spear (the blunt end, at that) for the guy to impale himself on, and his momentum sends him into it hard enough to for the shaft to pierce all the way through his torso. Ouch. | |

Subverted in The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers: The Rohirrim cavalry charges down a steep incline where orc pikemen are massing. However, the sun rises just in time for the orcs to be dazzled, and the charge completely breaks the line apart. Played straight earlier, when Aragorn leads an elven counter-charge. At least one elf is shown impaling himself on an orc pike, while Aragorn swats one aside with his sword just before it happens to him. | |

In Robin Hood: Men in Tights, the Sherriff of Rottingham is impaled this way. He rushes Robin, who's busy with something else entirely and has shoved his sword underneath his armpit so he can work better. The camera angle makes it difficult to see what happened, but the Sheriff gets a pained expression on his face when he notices the hilt in his stomach. He says, "It's not so bad..." then turns around so we see the rather large sword stuck straight through him, says, "I was wrong!" and falls flat. He recovers, but immediately wishes he was dead, given the alternative. | |

A common way to dispatch enemies in the Legacy of Kain series, starting with Soul Reaver. The games even help you out — if you use a telekinetic strike to send an enemy flying and there's a spike in that general direction, they'll fly right onto it even if you weren't strictly lined up. | |

In Prince of Persia, pushing Mooks backwards off ledges to impale them in spiked pits is very satisfying. It's probably the easiest way to off the first guard in level 8 and the second guard in level 9. Of course, falling on Spikes of Doom has just as gruesome consequences to the player, as does running into wall spikes in Prince of Persia 2. | |

He'd just saved his leader from a fox trap by digging up the stake holding it in the ground, so he picks up the stake in his mouth and swings it around. Hawkfrost lunges at him and impales himself on the spike. Brambleclaw is shocked and gasps "Hawkfrost! I... I didn't want this." | |

In "Gingerbread", Buffy is tied to a stake so tightly she can't break her bonds. The Monster of the Week rushes at her, so she breaks the stake and bends forward, impaling it on the tip. |

GURPS has a 'stop thrust' option if waiting against charging foes using thrusting melee weapons which turns their movement into bonus damage and if they you have a longer weapon hit before the foe does, depending upon the outcome also denying them their initial attack. Lances do even better, as a successful hit does the better of a stop thrust or the damage from the momentum and strength of the attacker. Adding insult to injury any knockback to a rider has a good chance of dismounting them. | |

Such deaths get even more gruesome in the 2013 reboot due to Lara's more realistic character model and animation. Failing to avoid certain hazards can result in Lara being impaled through the neck. And it gets even worse because chances are during the river sequence you will see this several times before you finally get through it (watching her struggle helplessly for a moment before finally dying doesn't help). Ditto for the parachute sequence where Lara gets impaled through the stomach by a tree branch. This is accompanied by a non-fatal example at the very beginning of the game, in which Lara is impaled on a piece of rebar after a fall. One of the very first QTEs in the game involves pulling the offending piece of metal out of her side. |

The "good" tribe sets up a series of battlements, each taller than the last but none of them too terribly impregnable. The "bad" tribe jumps over them on their horses, only to fall into a pit of sharpened sticks where they're impaled. In another Gor book, Tarl kills a Larl (basically a lion or tiger the size of a small elephant) by getting it to charge at him while he's holding a spear with the butt firmly stuck in the ground. |

In 10,000 BC, this is how D'Leh kills the mammoth. When his spear gets stuck in the ground, he runs away, leading the beast to impale itself. But in this case D'Leh feels bad because he didn't really kill the mammoth himself, as the one who could kill it would get the White Spear, and more importantly, would be allowed to marry Evolet. He also does it to the terrorbirds, this time intentional. | |

The Saga of Darren Shan has several examples: This is the preferred method of execution for the vampire clan — they tie the victim into a cage and drop them into the pit of stakes in a place called the "Hall of Death". It often takes more than one drop before they die. Multiple major characters die this way, and it's depicted on one of the covers. The antagonist of the second half likes to use these for theatrics, creating a replica "Hall of Retribution" in an Absurdly Spacious Sewer, where the stakes are on fire. Of the hand-held-weapon variety, this is how Darren kills someone in battle for the first time. |

An issue of Deadpool has him fighting The Incredible Hulk for a sample of his blood. During the fight, Hulk leaps into the air and lectures Deadpool on how much he sucks. When we cut back to Deadpool, we see that he's set up a broken sign post as a weapon during Hulk's mid-leap monologue, and Hulk lands on it. | |
