Being injured to the point of being unable to move is extremely painful and traumatizing. A character in this state is usually bleeding out, has at least one broken bone, and may be on death's door — but that doesn't mean they're always unconscious. If the character is awake, then they're unlikely to want to just lay down and accept an agonizing death. They'll want to move and fight, even if such a thing seems impossible. But what do they do if they're so injured that they're basically immobilized? They'll drag themselves. This trope serves to do a lot of things very quickly. For one, it makes the character come off as a Determinator who won't give up even as they're dying. If they're dragging themselves to a weapon, it means that they're still trying to fight even if they're dying while dragging themselves to a safe place means they're just trying to survive. Either way, this act takes a lot of willpower and courage, pulling through in such a dire scenario to achieve one last goal and claim some sort of victory. It also serves to put the character in even greater agony, all while making them very pitiable to the audience. Their wounds, broken bones, and internal bleeding won't get better as they force themselves to move forward. They'll just be in even more pain, using up the last of their blood and energy. The camera may show them from above, making it clear just how far they have to go and showing the Trail of Blood behind them. In short, putting a character into this scenario is a good way to make the audience root for them. They're fighting through unimaginable pain in the name of saving themselves (or sometimes others), and even if they physically can't make it, their courage in the moment will still say a lot about them. This trope can be downplayed in cases where the character isn't at death's door but is still severely injured and barely mobile. Even if they don't end up having to drag themselves around, there will be emphasis on their efforts to keep moving, and on the pain it puts them in, all the same. For instance, they may still be able to stand upright, but will need to find a makeshift crutch or cane to actually move, or they may be walking away with broken legs and bleeding feet. All that matters is that the injury is debilitating to the point of making it so that the character would be expected to just collapse and surrender, and manifests in such a way that moving at all is even more painful. Video game scenarios may make this trope into a form of Controllable Helplessness, or even a whole Injured Player Character Stage, overlapping with this a lot. In any case, such tropes involve desperate struggling in a situation that's impossible or near impossible to actually win, making them related concepts. Lastly, video games that allow targeting specific body parts will invoke this trope if you cripple the legs of a foe, especially undead or robotic ones. Also a Super-Trope to Who Needs Their Whole Body? The person dragging themselves may be an Almost Dead Guy. Contrast Ankle Drag, when someone who tries to escape from a monster or murderer is grabbed by it through the ankle and then forcefully dragged back. |

Terminator 2: Judgment Day: T-800 is repeatedly hit by a girder landed forward on him by a ruthless T-1000. The former drags across the floor in an attempt to grab an M-79 Grenade Launcher, but T-1000 stabs him downward with a steel tube to keep him immobile and go back to look for John Connor. After a brief self-repair command, T-800 reactivates, removes the tube from his body, grabs the grenade launcher, and drags to a conveyor belt while aiming with the gun to shoot T-1000 and (with the projectile's impact) push him to the molten steel container below, finally killing him. | |

Naruto: Downplayed example. By the end of Naruto's fight with Gaara, both of them are so exhausted and drained that neither has the strength left to stand, or even crawl. But Naruto is so determined not to give up that he starts dragging himself towards Gaara with his chin. It isn’t until others step in and assure him that the fight is over and Sakura is safe that he finally lets himself succumb to unconsciousness. | |

RWBY: Following her battle with Raven, Cinder regains consciousness underwater. She has just enough energy left to drag herself out of the water towards a crack in the cave she's in. She's spent and exhausted, but manages to walk out of the cave while clutching her ribs. After only making it a few steps, she collapses in front of a passerby, who starts to help her until she sees the Grimm arm. Cinder has just enough energy left to seize the moment and mug the passerby for the clothing and money she needs to survive. Flashbacks reveal that Salem and Oz once fought a terrible battle that appeared to lead to both of their deaths. Oz drags himself from the battlefield, leaving a trail of blood behind him, clearly determined to reach a specific location. The fight is triggered when Oz realises their children are in danger from their own mother; Salem catches him sneaking the kids out and the pair end up fighting right there, resulting in the destruction of their kingdom, home and children. Oz tries to drag his dying body to the place where the children died, but Salem reforms in time to kill him before he can reach it. |

As Ken goes after Ted, Dick, despite his injuries, managed to follow Ken by dragging himself using a shotgun as an improvised crutch, in time to assist Ken by blasting Ted full of lead. | |

Blades in the Dark (and most Forged in the Dark games): Taking harm of the highest order (level 3 a.k.a. "severe"), such as having one leg shattered, typically incapacitates a player character, so that they, though still conscious, are incapable of doing anything useful on their own except slowly and painfully crawling to safety. Gameplay-wise, level 3 harm bars the corresponding player from using action rolls (the core mechanic of the game) unless another character helps theirs or they spend stress points for each action attempted. | |

Another World: In the final level, Lester is seized by one of the alien men who are looking for him right after falling off a building's roof, and is badly beaten by him. Buddy reaches just in time and fights against the enemy to give Lester time to escape, but Lester himself is too weak to walk or run. He has to drag with a great amount of effort to reach a spot where he can activate a powerful laser from the ceiling to kill the alien man. This requires serious input from the player, not only because Lester is having a difficult time dragging himself but also because, if he doesn't make it to the spot in time, the alien will come at him and finish the job right after incapacitating Buddy. Even after succeeding, the still-weakened Lester has to keep dragging until warping back to the building's roof and escaping with Buddy. | |

American Dad!: Parodied in the Season 7 episode "Son of Stan", where Stan clones Steve and raises the clone (named Stevearino) in a highly disciplined manner to prove his way is the best way to bring Steve up. This backfires, causing Stevearino to become a psychopath who kills animals and intends to murder Steve to replace him. At the end of the episode, Stevearino is seemingly killed by an explosion and left for dead by the Smith family. However, it's shown that he's still alive, though injured. He spots one of the cats he tortured and a gun that's between them. The two try to crawl to it, with the cat getting there first and shooting Stevearino. | |

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots: Upon reaching the microwave corridor, Old Snake begins to receive the impact of said microwaves onto his body (as they heat the molecules of the water present in his body). Though Raiden offered himself to go in his place, Snake persuaded him to keep the enemy soldiers distracted while he traversed the perilous corridor. Snake walks through the corridor with extreme difficulty, and when he can't do so anymore he crawls, and when he's too weak to do that he creeps forward. He succeeds in reaching the other end. | |

Bob and George: After getting beaten up by the Cossack Bots, Mega Man crawls eighty miles to Dr. Cossack's lair with a hole in his chest and stumps for arms; one of his legs fell off along the way. He's incredibly annoyed when he discovers that it was all for nothing; not only did Proto Man basically lie that Cossack was behind everything, Proto Man and the Cossack Bots saved the day without him. Being a robot, though, he gets better. | |

In Mass Effect 3, at the end of "Priority: Tuchanka", if you choose to murder Mordin Solus to prevent the genophage from being cured, he spends his last moments defiantly crawling towards the computer console he needs to counteract the sabotage despite the Carnifex round in his sternum. Sadly, his body gives out on him before he can fix the cure. | |

MonsterVerse: After angering Godzilla for getting the best of him in their third fight, King Kong takes painful damage by getting forcefully thrown into the side of a building and dislodged one of his shoulders. The result of this physical trauma was so severe that it even hindered his mobility, that as soon as Godzilla approached Kong in a vulnerable state, he was basically forced to quickly drag himself away from his oncoming wrath, who's inching his way closer to the overwhelmed primate with nothing but unbridled fury on all fours. All of that dragging to safety got him nowhere when Godzilla continued to assault him until he immobilized Kong with only a stomp to keep him still. | |

Monk: In the Season 2 episode "Mr. Monk Goes to Mexico", Monk is summoned to... well, Mexico, thanks to a mysterious case wherein a teenage skydiver apparently drowned in midair. Things go poorly, including someone stealing his luggage. Partway through the episode, he's mistakenly declared dead when the thief gets hit by a car. Sharona realizes it couldn't have been her boss seconds before Monk's arrival; trying to console her, the lieutenant tells her that Monk bravely crawled through a dirty place looking for help. Sharona, knowing that her germophobic boss would rather die, is euphoric at the realization that the dead man wasn't him. | |

Badly injured, he drags himself forward by the elbows, saying, "Elbows, don't fail me now." When they approach Miss Simian, she somehow also thinks she's trapped in a well and jumps out a window in the same way, dragging herself by her chin and saying, "Come on chin, don't fail me now." | |

RockNRolla: Implied after Lenny Cole has just had his kneecaps beaten to a pulp with a golf club by Viktor the Russian gangster, right after insulting his boss to his face. We don't see the full extent of Lenny's injuries, but judging by the fact that Viktor wipes his golf club clean afterwards, his kneecaps were most likely reduced to bloody pulps, leaving him screaming and cursing in pain. Yuri calmly tells Lenny that he'll have to drag himself all the way from the 18th hole back to the club shop in order to call for help. From that moment on, Lenny spends the rest of the film (and his life) in a wheelchair. | |

Game of Thrones: Subverted by Lancel Lannister in the Season 6 finale. After being fatally stabbed in a dark corridor and starting to bleed out, he opts not to crawl somewhere he can potentially be found and saved, but instead toward an eerie green glow off in the distance. As he gets closer, he recognizes it as a Wildfire bomb and hustles toward it with the intent to put out the candles that serve as the bomb's fuse with his spit. Unfortunately, he is moments too late to snuff it out and the candles burn down just before he is able to spit out the wicks. Thus, he perishes by immolation, rather than his stab wound. | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: In "Prehibernation Week", SpongeBob's legs get incredibly sore from sandboarding, and when he tries to go home, he has to lift each leg off the ground with his hands in order to take a single step. In "The Camping Episode", Squidward gets attacked by a sea bear and tries to limp away, only for the sea bear to attack him again because it hates limping. Squidward then tries to crawl away offscreen, but gets attacked again because, apparently, the sea bear hates crawling, too (or just doesn't like Squidward). |

Doctor Who: In the Season 35 episode "Heaven Sent", Twelve finds himself in a strange, moving castle with a monster who keeps almost killing him unless he confesses to various things. At the end, he refuses to keep confessing and instead desperately smashes his fists against a glass wall until the monster catches up and kills him, but, being a Time Lord, he has at least a day to survive. He uses this time to drag himself all the way out of the castle with his bleeding hands, leaving clues that he then follows when he revives, repeating the same behaviors for billions of years until the glass breaks. This means that Twelve dragged his dying body through the castle billions of times over, and had he been unable to do it, he never would've been able to eventually free himself for real. | |

Call of Duty: In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, the Player Character is stabbed by the Big Bad right before the final fight. Part of the fight involves you dragging yourself to the villain's dropped sidearm, although said villain catches you and kicks the gun away before you can take hold of it. In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, during the third segment of Yuri's flashback to his origin story, he is shot in the stomach by Makarov. Yuri drags himself to a nearby elevator in a futile attempt to stop the airport massacre. |

One slams him in the knee so hard with a large, heavy chain that his kneecap is shattered and he goes down. Several others kick him repeatedly with their biker boots. His right shoulder is dislocated and he gets stabbed in one of his kidneys. Knowing he's a goner, they stand back and watch as he tries to drag himself to the door with his left hand, leaving bloody prints and a Trail of Blood behind. He dies before he gets out. | |

Dota 2: Certain multi-legged characters like Nyx Assassin, Broodmother or Weaver, when on low-health, have walking animations where they drag themselves with their back pair of legs limp. As the game operates on a Critical Existence Failure system, that disability is just a visual effect that doesn't impair their movespeed or combat effectiveness at all. About half of the zombies spawned through Undying's Tombstone have only their upper half left, so this is their only method of locomotion left. |

Happy Tree Friends: In the episode "Water You Wading For", after getting mangled by piranhas, sea lions, and an alligator, Cuddles, now missing his entire lower body among other things, manages to escape the lake he made the mistake of swimming in and pulls himself away from it. Unfortunately, it does little to save him, as he's promptly body slammed and crushed by a whale. While Sniffles is exiting his shrinking submarine in the episode "I've Got You Under My Skin", he accidentally steps on the shrinking knob, causing it to start shrinking with him halfway out and thus cutting him in half horizontally. Having lost his entire lower body, he tries to drag himself towards a first aid kit on a table. Unfortunately, he fails to notice Lumpy's silly straw falling on his intestine and pinning it to the floor, meaning that his organs get pulled out one by one as he drags himself closer to the table. To add insult to injury, when he finally reaches the table, he accidentally tips it over, causing it to fall on his head and split it in half moments before the first aid kit falls into his hand. |

Goblins has a sequence where a lot of freed prisoners are trying to flee a city. One has a bloody stump for a foot and can only hobble along using a stick. He encounters setbacks: first getting knocked down in the rush, then slipping and falling with the stick landing just out of reach. He's very visibly struggling and desperate, each step leaving a bloody footprint, and the framing emphasizes just how far he has to go. | |

Dragon Ball Z: After losing to Zarbon and being on death's doorstep after getting thrown into a lake, Vegeta tries to weakly crawl and drag himself out of the lake and then escape somewhere safe to recover, succeeding at moving somewhat far from the shore before finally collapsing from exhaustion. The only reason he lives afterwards is that Frieza orders Zarbon to retrieve his body and heal him so they can interrogate him about the Namekian Dragon Balls. In The History of Trunks TV special, Future Gohan is forced to hide from Androids 17 and 18, with neither one being able to find him or Future Trunks. The duo then decide to just destroy the entire area, with both Gohan and Trunks being caught in the crossfire, Gohan losing an arm in the process. With only one senzu bean left, Gohan drags himself over to an unconscious Trunks in order to feed it to him. |

Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith: The climactic fight between Anakin Skywalker and Obi-wan Kenobi ends with Obi-wan severing Anakin's legs and left arm and Anakin being horribly burned after sliding down a rocky slope and almost ending up in a river of lava. After Obi-wan abandons him, he feebly pulls himself up the slope with his mechanical arm, which gets him far enough away from the lava flow for him to stay alive until Palpatine finds him. | |

The narrator of the short Creepypasta "I Need To Believe In Ghosts" sees a horrifically mutilated, bleeding specter dragging its ruined body towards him. He escapes...only to learn that he wasn't fleeing a ghost but a terribly injured woman, who bled out on the floor after he abandoned her. | |

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines: Grunfeld Bach turns out to be clinging to life after his Boss Battle, dragging himself over to taunt you and activate a self-destruct just as you're ready to leave his lair. This can require him to drag himself through a large cavern and up a long set of stairs, so he must really want to smack-talk you to your face. | |

Batman: Under the Red Hood: At the start of the film, the Joker kidnaps Jason Todd, beats him to an inch of his life with a crowbar, and abandons him in a remote warehouse. After the villain takes off, the boy tries to stand up and walk but falls down and begins desperately crawling towards the exit. The next scene focuses on the bloody trail Jason left behind as he finally reaches the door. Unfortunately, he is unable to unlock it and, realizing that the Joker had left a time bomb in the building, calmly accepts he is doomed. | |

Gravity Falls: In "Weirdmageddon Part 1", we get a Mad Max-style car chase with Gideon (who, at least at this point in time, is working for Bill) and his jail gang on hot pursuit of Dipper and Wendy as the former try to stop Mabel from being rescued via Gideon's not-so-successful meddling. Wendy openly admits that she's a less-than-amateur driver, but they manage to get pretty far...until they have to jump a gorge, at which the car flips over multiple times and crashes, knocking Wendy out for a few minutes. Cue Dipper immediately getting out of the car, wasting no time to prepare for the effects of sidling on the intensely hot, fragile, decaying ground and quite literally (as you may imagine) pulling his weight towards Mabel's bubble without showing any signs of slowing down. | |

Saint Seiya: The biggest benefit of cosmic energy (often called the "seventh sense") is that, even after a saint is gravely injured and/or the other six senses have been disabled, it grants them the physical and psychological capacity to move forward or even fight. This is the reason why Hyoga is spared by Scorpio Milo in their fight in the 8th Zodiac house: The latter is aiming to win by killing him at first, but he's impressed by Hyoga's determination to keep going even after he's very crippled (he had received all 15 of Scorpio's stinging punches, including Antares which is normally the deadliest), so he lets him continue his way upward (still crippled and badly injured) to the house of Pope Ares. In the non-canon film Saint Seiya: Legend of Crimson Youth, set after the original "12 Houses" Arc, Athena's divine brother, Phoebus Abel, comes to inform her that the gods decided to destroy mankind, and he is to take her to his own personal temple, while his subordinates, the three Solar Corona Saints and the resurrected Gold Saints (Gemini Saga, Cancer Deathmask, Capricorn Shura, Aquarius Camus, and Pisces Aphrodite), deal with Athena's Bronze Saints. The larger part of the film is the Bronze Saints fighting against Abel's lackeys, then Corona Atlas doing a surprise attack on them. At the climax of the movie, each of them drags themselves from whatever place of their previous battles and limp toward Abel's temple. |
