A heroic character wants to do something dangerous. Dangerous as in "you might be Killed Off for Real, or at the very least, maimed" peril. Before he can get started, one of his friends will knock him out and go to do the dirty work himself. Their reasoning as they do will fall along the lines of how their friend is more important than themselves and thus if one of them has to die, it shouldn't be him. Cue the Heroic Sacrifice. The Atoner is likely to pull this hoping for Redemption Equals Death. It's also likely to be someone with a Convenient Terminal Illness. It's often preceded by a More Hero than Thou dispute, or deliberately pre-empting such a dispute. Usually part of an Only I Can Kill Him scenario — The Hero is too important to waste on this minor sacrifice preceding the big showdown. Alternatively, it could be needed to avert Shoot the Medic First. Puts the "Cannon Fodder" in We Are "Team Cannon Fodder" and is a standard Job requirement for the Hero Secret Service. Contrast Martyr Without a Cause. See also The Needs of the Many. Compare Men Are the Expendable Gender when gender matters more than character importance. Can overlap with Death Seeker, where characters are willing to die, but they cannot take their lives. Death Trope,. Spoilers ahoy. |

Air Force One plays this straight, inverts it, and then subverts it. The Secret Service agents on board the plane perform Heroic Sacrifices to get the President to safety but in the end, it is the President who stays on board to fight the terrorists after the rest of his (expendable) staff are evacuated. It's played straight again at the end of the movie where the damaged plane is about to crash and the remaining military personnel on board insist that the President evacuate the plane before them. However, The Mole is not willing to die for the President and fights him for the last evacuation slot. The President wanted to get his family off and MEDIVAC a wounded staff member before saving his own life. | |

Captain Atom knocks out Superman so that he, Cap, can be the one to fly a spaceship into the giant kryptonite meteoroid that's hurtling toward the earth, not because he sees Superman as less expendable, but because he knows Superman will fail. | |

This is partially because Adam wants to make up for accidentally knocking Mr. Brennan off the cliff and partially because Scott is the only teenager with experience in navigating the wilderness and the others will be in trouble if they lose him and Mr. Brennan. | |

Nodwick: The title character, being a mere henchman, is considered far more expendable than the rest of the team in the eyes of teammates Yeager and Artax, who regularly do things like use him to disarm traps by throwing him into them when Piffany isn't looking. Piffany has to heal and/or resurrect him disturbingly often. And the whole plot of "A Kind of Tragic" stems from a side effect of Nodwick's frequent resurrections: The Immortals mistake him for one of them and his head rolls often throughout the book. While Nodwick has it worse than usual for henchmen, his situation in general is typical for the trade. Only one henchman has ever lived long enough to die of natural causes. |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Ant-Man: Why Hank wants Scott to pilot the Ant-Man suit instead of his more experienced daughter. It speaks of how distant they are that he never communicates it well. Scott, being a father himself, is quick to catch on. Avengers: Endgame: Clint and Natasha are on Vormir to retrieve the Soul Stone, which requires its would-be wielder to sacrifice someone they love. Both heroes insist on making the sacrifice themselves — Clint because he's seeking to atone for his violent fall from grace as Ronin, and Natasha because Clint has a family and she doesn't. They come to blows over it trying to prevent the other from going to their deaths, but ultimately it's Natasha who takes the fall. |

Nocturne volunteers, only to be knocked out by Mimic, who's been feeling depressed for some time, and is down over what's happened to his lover Blink.

Superman: In The Super-Duel in Space, Superman has rescued Brainiac's stolen cities and has enlarged all of them except Kandor. He was also shrunk, but Brainiac's enlarging has only one charge left. Superman is not about to put himself above one city worth of people, but before he can enlarge the last Kryptonian city, a Kandorian presses the button and enlarges Superman, arguing that they could let Earth be deprived of its greatest hero. In The Amazing Story of Superman Red and Superman Blue, the Man of Steel is going to use a dangerous, untested device. Supergirl tries to convince him to let her take his place, since the world cannot afford lose its greatest hero, but Superman argues he cannot allow his cousin to risk herself for him. |

Saturn Girl, blaming herself for Lightning Lad's fate, plots to use a special metal that attracts electricity more so she can revive the fallen Legionaire, but Chameleon Boy's pet, the shapeshifting Proty, decides otherwise and lures Saturn Girl away, taking her place and sacrificing itself. | |

Legion of Super-Heroes: Classic example from a Jim Shooter Legion of Super-Heroes story in which Ferro-Lad punches Superboy unconscious so that Ferro-Lad can be the one to martyr himself stopping the Sun Eater instead, on the grounds that the world needs Superboy more. This has since been aped repeatedly. The Death of Lightning Lad: Mon-El reveals a process that can revive a person, but it requires that person to be struck with a powerful bolt of lightning, which will kill the person struck but revive the dead. Saturn Girl, blaming herself for Lightning Lad's fate, plots to use a special metal that attracts electricity more so she can revive the fallen Legionaire, but Chameleon Boy's pet, the shapeshifting Proty, decides otherwise and lures Saturn Girl away, taking her place and sacrificing itself. |

In Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, the situation of the kids' captivity is such that one who kills another will almost certainly die themselves. Even so, in chapter two, Fuyuhiko still wants to take revenge on Mahiru for her role in his sister's death...but just as he's about to strike, his bodyguard/assassin/best friend Peko steps in and attacks her on his behalf. Fuyuhiko is devastated; Peko doesn't care. Something similar happens during chapter four. All the kids have been trapped in a building devoid of food and water and are told that they won't be able to leave until someone dies. They all try to stave off starvation until they wake up and see that Nidai has been murdered, and when Gundam is eventually unveiled as the culprit, he reveals that he and Nidai had met in secret and agreed that one of them had to die so everyone else could live, so they engaged in a Duel to the Death to decide. |

At the end of Thoroughbreds, when Lily and Amanda are sitting together watching TV, Amanda moves to take a sip from the glass she's holding, but Lily suddenly stops her and confesses that she drugged it so she could go murder her stepfather upstairs and pin the crime on Amanda, who would have no alibi. She apologizes for trying to throw her under the bus, but Amanda just looks at the glass and chugs it anyway, content with being locked up if it means that the best and only friend will go to college and be happy. | |

Gran Torino contains an excellent example. The protagonist locks the kid in his basement, then goes out to the gangsters' place and intentionally gets murdered in front of many witnesses, getting the gangsters put in jail. He was dying of cancer and did not want the kid to destroy his future by trying to get revenge on the gangsters. | |

At the climax of Disney's The Black Cauldron, the Cauldron Born have been created and dispatched to conquer the world, and the only way to prevent them from doing this is that someone must jump into the titular cauldron, and thus, die. The hero, Taran, is ready to do so until his ally Gurgi stops him. After explaining that "Taran has many friends, Gurgi has no friends", the furry guy makes his heroic leap, halting the undead warriors in their tracks. Even though this is a dark Disney animated film (arguably THE darkest), it is still a Disney animated film, so Gurgi's life is brought back in trade for the Black Cauldron at the end of the movie. The book has the Jerkass Prince Ellidyr do it instead, for a very permanent Redemption Equals Death. |

Empowered: When given the choice between using a single-use, low "bandwidth" teleportation device to escape a crippled space station as a colleague with a deep-space capable alien battlesuit flushed herself out the airlock to try gliding to safety or insuring her own death by hijacking said colleague's limbs and forcing her to teleport out; the telepath Mindf**k cited this trope when picking the latter. | |

ElfQuest: The comic runs a similar bit early in the Troll war arc. The Elves are escaping from overwhelming numbers and Kahvi, the chief of the local tribe is set to play rear-guard. Vaya, one of her warriors, knocks her down and orders the other elves to take her, "She'd fight till they tore her to pieces, and that's a warrior's privilege, not a chief's!" before taking over the rear-guard. Later we learn that Vaya is Kahvi's daughter. | |

In the Battlefield Earth Film of the Book, Jonnie explains that the only way to ensure the Psychlos don't return is to wipe out their homeworld with a nuke, as their breath-gas reacts explosively with nuclear radiation. He decides to divert the nuke himself, but another man (a little cowardly) offers to go in his place, as there's no rebellion without Jonnie. Jonnie eventually agrees. | |
