Unflinching Walk | comment |
When just blowing something up isn't enough, proof of one's apparent badass bombing technique can be seen when the bomber leaves himself barely enough time to escape the blast radius, usually just enough so that as he's walking away, he's silhouetted by the explosion itself. While explosions are the most common thing to walk away from without looking or reacting to, any sufficiently spectacular or violent event (such as a battle, a vehicle crash, a building collapsing, etc.) can also count, as long as the one walking away was connected to the event and the event is something that they would be expected to pay attention to, or at least attempt to take cover from. Besides making the character look awesome, this usually also implies they were directly involved in the disaster — after all, why else would they casually ignore something that spectacular unless they knew it would happen? Also, as noted in the Real Life section, turning away from an explosion actually has a practical reason, in that even if explosion does hit the body, backside is much safer compared to face and other important human parts that are on front. (But although there's a practical side in facing the other way, there's nothing practical about allowing yourself to be so close to the explosion in the first place. That part is pure Rule of Cool.) Can be combined with a Team Power Walk for extra badassitude. Likely requires Convection, Schmonvection, or there is convection, and the fact that the character is still unflinching further confirms badassitude. When the character was in the fireball, and still pulls this off, that's usually a sign that they're an Implacable Man or The Juggernaut. Compare Outrun the Fireball (when this is done running), Strolling Through the Chaos. Contrast it with The Slow Walk, where the character is walking towards danger (in order to lay a major beat down) and Team Power Walk, where multiple characters walk towards the camera while giving off an air of determination. Contrast Unflinching Faith in the Brakes. |

Metroid Prime Trilogy: Metroid Prime: Happens after defeating Thardus (the rock monster). All of the rocks explode outward and Samus just casually strolls away. One of the smaller rocks actually dings off her helmet, but she just looks annoyed that it messed up her Unflinching Walk. Metroid Prime 2: Echoes: Happens after finishing off Quadraxis. The core unit starts shaking, Samus hops off the unit and glides down to the ground, and strikes a pose as Quadraxis' head flies past her exploding, all while she then slowly gets up, doesn't spare a glace, and walks away. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption: One of these happens after every major boss. Samus casually strolls away while the Phazon Core she just gave a Phlebotinum Overload comes crashing down behind her and starts exploding. Made extra badass because each of these events also increases her corruption level, and yet she continues like nothing happened. Happens on Elysia, where you can drop a bridge out from under a crowd of Tinbots by grappling out the support gates. As the bridge collapses, the camera focuses on Samus' back as she calmly walks away. The whole sequence earns you a "Stylish Kill" token voucher. |

In Ward the supervillain March has a power that allows her to energize a bladed weaponnote usually her saber, but it works on any blade so that it can cut through anything and draw "lines" of energy on any opponent or object she cuts. After a delay of a few seconds, these lines explode violently, typically blowing the victim apart. She also has superpowered timing and coordination, so she almost never misses and if she wants a cut to be deadly, it will be. Combining her powerset with arrogance and a flair for the dramatic, she does an unflinching walk away from nearly every opponent she defeats, rarely seeing any of them explode and die. In a subversion this later proves to be her undoing: Vista, a superhero with the power to warp the dimensions of space and objects at will, notices this and takes advantage of it by shortening March's blade whenever it would cut or impale someone. The resulting blast only scratches the surface of the person hit, damaging only clothes or skin, but since March never watches the explosion, she never realizes that her opponent is not dead. Her moral villain nemesis Foil, teamed up with Vista, uses this to fake taking a lethal blow and then run March through with a rapier from behind. | |

Warren Beatty pulls off one of these in the Dick Tracy movie, although he's not walking but wearing a deadpan expression while firing a Tommy gun as a car explodes behind him. Notable in that there are two tropes at work here; the More Dakka of the tommy gun masked the explosion to the point where Warren Beatty didn't even hear it, which is how he was able to pull it off. |

At the end of Innocence Lost, X-23 casually strolls out of the Facility's base seconds ahead of it exploding from the charges she planted, and walks away as it blows up behind her. Made even more awesome because she's thirteen. Funnily enough, Laura actually would not have even needed to make a dramatic exit, but rather than killing Zander Rice quickly she spent ten minutes beating the shit out of him as payback for essentially torturing her for thirteen years first. | |

With Link's remote-controlled bombs, the enemies' tendency to keep barrels of explosives around their lairs and the fully-adjustable camera angle, it's fully possible to do this in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Just be really sure Link actually is far enough away before setting it off though, or he will be needing Mipha's Grace... | |

Near the end of the film, the SHIELD team has to blow a door to gain access to Stane's facility. While the rest of the team takes cover, Coulson simply turns his back, crosses his arms and hunches up a little. Given that it's a door-breaching charge, the explosion is small and directed, but still... He repeats the move in an Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode. | |

The Turbo Megazord in Power Rangers Turbo/RV Robo in Gekisou Sentai Carranger actually had a special pose - on the left knee, sword pointed towards the camera, BOOM in the background. Actually not so surprising, given that the attack in question involves a lot of spinning. (It got old fast, though, because this part was Stock Footage; for a good chunk of Turbo, you never got to see the monster actually blow up. Feels less real when the monster's destruction is the same stock shot.) In Power Rangers' 10th Anniversary Reunion Show, "Forever Red", the Red Turbo Ranger finishes off one of the villains with a spinning attack with his sword, and lands in the very same pose as the Turbo Megazord as the enemy goes 'boom' in the background. |

Even The Battle for Middle-earth has one instance, performed by - of all people - Treebeard. After he busts up Isengard's dam, he casually walks away as the torrential water eruption breaks through and floods the basin. "Don't be hasty" indeed. (Based on a similar scene in the film, above.) | |

Invoked in Borderlands 2. The Slab King sends you on a mission to steal some explosives, and in the process you need to lure a bandit leader out by blowing up his favorite Buzzard aircraft. You're given an optional objective to not look at the explosion and just walk away, and if you do, the bandit leader comes in over the radio babbling about how terrifyingly badass you are. | |

Dune: Part Two has Paul's arrival outside the Fremen leaders' gathering, unflinchingly walking towards and amidst the Fremen crowd, wearing his hooded Badass Cape and with a Shai-Hulud leaping out of the ground and back in it behind him (he's so unflinching that he doesn't even turn back to look at it). As a cherry on the cake, the scene is powerfully scored with "Arrival" by Hans Zimmer. | |

His Ultimate Musou has him reach into his coat, withdraw a large iron bomb with its fuse already lit, and casually chuck it over his shoulder without a second glance while nonchalantly swaggering away, leaving everyone behind him to explode and burn. | |

While nothing explodes, Kenshiro of Fist of the North Star has the most overexaggerated example of the Unflinching Walk ever. He walks through a skyscraper that falls on his head without even seeming to notice it. And in a filler episode, Kenshiro blows up a tank with his bare fists and walks away from the explosion calmly. | |

If Josuke Higashikata (4) successfully pulls off his counter-taunt in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle and gets his opponent to mock his hair, he'll start stomping towards the opponent, gaining a small buff to his attack power and immunity to flinching. The only downside is that the only control the player has over Josuke's movement during this buff is jumping: he'll always march towards the opponent until the buff expires. | |

In Jurassic World, ACU Trooper Miller essentially flips off the I. rex by standing his ground and firing his shotgun repeatedly at it. He got eaten, but by doing so, the last three soldiers — one of them severely injured — survived the attack and escaped I. rex pursuit, all thanks to his badassery. And to top it off, he's not just holding his ground; he's calmly striding towards the damn thing as it's charging right at him. | |

Castiel's first appearance on Supernatural, in which the entire building shakes, the door bursts open (it was barred), and he walks in amid showers of sparks from bursting lightbulbs, completely ignoring said sparks, the many protective symbols covering the walls, four shotgun blasts, and a frickin' magic knife to the chest. Well, OK, he doesn't ignore the knife. He glances at it, pulls it out, and casually drops it. | |

Viole from Tower of God, who took a Shinsu Bomb head on and didn't even blink - as far as we can tell, anyway. Subverted in his less than cool reaction too the much weaker normal bombs Ja was using - taking an actual explosion instead of a Shinsu Blast actually made him bleed a little, since he didn't have an innate immunity against fire, shrapnels and shockwaves, unlike with Shinsu. | |

In Rogue One, K-2SO catches a thrown grenade, then blithely tosses it over his shoulder to blow up a squad of Imperial Stormtroopers, all the time walking towards Jyn and Cassian while bitching about being left behind with the ship. Granted, he's a droid and could probably calculate the risks a lot faster than a human could, but it's still pretty awesome. | |

Dungeon Keeper Ami: The Avatar Restored goes on one after regaining his true shape. Previous to this event, he was a transformed female troll, and had undergone fifteen years of desperate survival against a continent of undead. This, in turn, was following his witness of the slaughter of his entire family, and all the survivors of the war; men, women, and children alike. Not to mention his possible rape, transformed, remember? He was the 'troll' at the end of Dungeon Keeper... Having regained his old form and power, he is understandably eager to vent his frustrations on Ami, as she is a keeper- in his anger he doesn't particularly care that she's essentially a heroine acting in an ambiguously villainous manner so that her minions don't rebel. Ami is understandably reluctant to attack him, but resorts to more and more desperate measures. Eventually blasting him with every spell she knows, sending waves of golems at him, channeling the might of Mettalia to turn the floor into a mass of living hands to encumber him, dropping the ceiling on him, and glamoring more powerful minions into weaker ones to mount surprise attacks. The Avatar weathers them all, until... she attempts an indirect assault, and sticks him to the wall with a gigantic electro-magnet. | |

Iron Man: In the trailers to the film (retained in the film itself). Iron Man dodges a tank shell and then fires a tiny, wrist-mounted rocket at the tank. He doesn't even wait for the rocket to explode before turning around to begin his Unflinching Walk. Combine that imagery with the opening riff of the Black Sabbath song of the same name and you have the ultimate in superhero badassery. The same trailer also shows an "Unflinching Stand" when Stark casually addresses a crowd with his back to the oncoming shockwave of a cluster bomb explosion. Near the end of the film, the SHIELD team has to blow a door to gain access to Stane's facility. While the rest of the team takes cover, Coulson simply turns his back, crosses his arms and hunches up a little. Given that it's a door-breaching charge, the explosion is small and directed, but still... He repeats the move in an Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. episode. |

James Bond: The pre-credits sequence of Goldfinger, where Bond is the only one at the bar not to react to the huge explosion he planted earlier. The GoldenEye (1997) video game has this after the Streets level. A rather good HDTV advert around the time of the insanely merchandised Quantum of Solace was nothing but Daniel Craig doing this in slow motion. He actually was getting pummelled by flying debris, but continued to look grimly at the camera. The trailer for Skyfall ramps it up by substituting 'explosion' with 'train car getting ripped open by heavy equipment while he's inside it.' |

Know Your Meme website summarized late 2010s series of memes as People Standing In Front Of Things They Destroyed. They depict the above-mentioned film scenes of Iron Man, Wolverine and Jocker walking from explosions, plus a real person, who supposedly destroyed somethnig. Usually it's a politician, implying he hurt a country or its economy, or a Franchise Killer director. Among less Take That! examples is a huge porn actor with his small partner. | |

Subverted in The Dark Knight: The Joker does something like an unflinching walk out of the hospital, then stops as the explosion peters out. He then stands there fiddling with the detonator until the rest of the bombs go off, visibly startling him, and he hightails it out of there. In the DVD commentary, the filmmakers expressed their amazement that Heath Ledger didn't even look back at the exploding building (which was not faked) when he entered the getaway bus, making it something of a meta example as well. | |

Stargate: In the Stargate SG-1 episode "Talion", Teal'c, who is in full Roaring Rampage of Revenge mode, walks away from a Jaffa traitor, who he's tied to a tree and has placed a bomb inside him. In the Stargate Atlantis episode "Sateda", Ronon Dex is forced to fight several enemies. In one case he casually turns away from a foe who is down but not out, as well as a Wraith tracking drone. He then tosses a grenade over his shoulder without breaking stride. |

In Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, during the mission "One Shot, One Kill" Captain MacMillian and then-Lieutenant Price take down a Hind helicopter with their sniper rifles. The Captain then turns away from the crashing helicopter, quips "Good night, ya bastard," and does an Unflinching Walk away from it as it crashes. On top of him. Price has to carry the Captain all the way to the extraction point. But the Badass-ness of that scene was so worth it. In Modern Warfare 3, Price and Yuri perform this towards Makarov's safehouse in the final level, machine gunning Makarov's troops without hesitation while wearing full Juggernaut suits, rendering them almost impervious to the incoming gunfire. The sheer levels of badass in that level are astounding. |

Thanks to the sheer amount of highly explosive nuclear powered cars, trucks and motorcycles scattered around The Capital Wasteland and The D.C. Ruins in Fallout 3, you can do this to your little heart's content. When leaving the Raven Rock complex, after setting President Eden to self destruct, you will quite possibly have to do an unflinching walk, since all the soldiers therein carry so much valuable loot (we're talking really high-end stuff) you will probably have amassed ten or fifteen times your maximum run weight limit before you even leave. Of course, you can always do it intentionally anyway. With the addition of C4 plastic explosive in Fallout: New Vegas (which can be remotely detonated), you can walk away from massive explosions anytime, anywhere. It's also demonstrated at the end of the teaser trailer. |

Faren Brosca in Dragon Age: The Crown of Thorns calmly walks away from the center of the proving arena and towards the exit after beating Seweryn and the twins, respectively. Both were curbstomp battles made particularly awesome by the fact that he was undercover, wearing his Dark Wolf attire. Said attire consists of a dark leather armor suit, a black cloak, which is more of an All-Encompassing Mantle, a black scarf (covered his nose and lower face) whose ends flowed through the air behind him and an equally black headband that doubled as a mask (covered his upper face but had eye holes), also with the bands tying it in place billowing behind him in a dramatic breeze. All the while, the crown was either staring in awe or cheering... and he's not even the protagonist. | |

ShineGreymon from Digimon Data Squad gets an absolutely EPIC one after assuming Burst Mode and shrugging off an attack from Kurata's One-Winged Angel form like it was nothing, in the process surrounding himself and Kurata in huge flames. He proceeds to walk slowly towards Kurata without paying attention to the several story high flames he'd just created. This combined with the absolutely hate filled Death Glare he's shooting Kurata while doing it makes it rather clear the reason he's not looking at the flames because the only thing on his mind is giving Kurata exactly what he has coming to him. | |

This is without a doubt the most fun way to use the remote plastic explosive in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and with the Free Rotating Camera you can make sure you've got the best possible viewpoint. In Grand Theft Auto V, Trevor Phillips raids the O'Neil Brother's house, kills them all, and torches the place. He walks away unfazed as the house explodes. GTA Online pulls this off as of the Heists Update during the Humane Labs Raide where your crew ends up does this after blowing up their helicopter they used in the Heist. |

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine scaled this up to entire spaceships. The Defiant was always flying away from explosions at the last minute, showing no concern for the mayhem behind it. Even if someone else had to blow something up to make it happen. Particularly notable examples in Tears of the Prophets (the power system for the weapons platforms) and Sacrifice of Angels (a Cardassian warship which serves no purpose except to blow up section by section after the Defiant flies past). | |

Mass Effect 2: "Fry, you son of a bitch," courtesy of gun for hire, Zaeed. A less explosion-related example, Shepard's calm stroll out of Cathka's workshop as the Batarian writhes on the floor in pain from the severe electrical shock Shepard just dealt him. And subverted in Project Overlord: Shepard's Unflinching Walk from a giant collapsing radio antenna is cut short when a very large piece of the antenna nearly pancakes the whole party, followed by Shepard and company running like hell when they realize the whole thing is about to collapse on top of them. Entirely doable any time a YMIR mech shows up in gameplay. If the killshot takes off its head, the mech will explode with a huge amount of force and a small mushroom cloud, letting Shepard pull an Unflinching Walk away from a nuclear explosion. |

However, after overhearing the Gems question their ability to train Steven, he does an unflinching walk through all the obsticles, to arrive at the end and pretend that he didn't make either discovery, to give the Gems the impression the test worked as intended, to boost their confidence. | |

Malgus of Star Wars: The Old Republic fame does one towards danger in the Return trailer. Having just grabbed his master's lightsaber, he walks toward a Jedi master while effortlessly slicing apart the various debris thrown at him until he finally leaps through an exploding turbine. Also done in the Deceived trailer. Unflinching Walks appear to be a Sith trademark. | |

Con Air: Played with when, after setting up an explosion by lighting a pool of gasoline leading back to a gas station, Cyrus and his buddies walk off. Once the explosion happens, Cyrus keeps walking without reacting; everyone else, however, flinches or turns around to look. Later in the movie Cyrus gets Poe at gunpoint and fires, hitting Poe in the shoulder. Poe keeps walking forward, doesn't even flinch from the hit, and begins fighting Cyrus. You do NOT threaten this man's daughter. |

Kamen Rider rarely subverts this (or at least follows the Super Sentai samples below), with the most egregious being Kamen Rider BLACK RX and, for a more contemporary example, Kamen Rider Hibiki in its Non-Serial Movie entitled The Seven Senki. This was parodied in a great scene on the Kamen Rider Decade special features, where various Kamen Riders hold a footrace to see who has the fastest landspeed. Most of the other Riders make a show of it, but Black just does an Unflinching Walk around the track, slow-mo and all. The other Kamen Riders proceed to reset the finishing line tape for him and declare him the winner when he finally gets to the end. |

NCIS: In a variant, Gibbs stomped out of a room as a huge real-time explosion took place on a screen behind him. He was disgusted by his superiors' refusal to call back some marines who were headed for the a ship with a bomber on it — and with good evidence the bomber was the radio operator who had been intercepting all messages directed at the ship — and wasn't going to linger and watch good men die unnecessarily. So disgusted, in fact, that he quit entirely. The episode was the "Hiatus" two-parter. More on the NCIS wiki. In one of the earlier seasons, he calmly puts his shades into his coat as a trailer explodes in a field behind him. Tony and Kate both crouch and cover. This was eventually put into the opening sequence. |

The Lion King (1994): Sarabi is summoned by Scar to deal with the food shortage in the Pride Lands, and must walk through a crowd of furious hyenas growling and snapping at her, demanding more food. But she holds her head up high and casts a cold sideways glance at them. She's The High Queen indeed. In the remake, the hyenas don't bark nor attempt to attack her, but nonetheless give her a collective Death Glare and growl ominously, both of which Sarabi serenely rejects. |

But Chow was standing a few inches too close to the pyrotechnics when they went off, and he flinched away as his hair was singed. Seen here at the 1:20 mark. | |

In one episode of CSI: Miami, badass CSI agent Horatio Caine finds a bomb in a car they have impounded. Realizing he has only minutes until it detonates, he jumps in, drives the car out of the garage, through the streets of Miami (with appropriate roaring engine noises, weaving in and out of traffic, etc.) and races to a deserted stretch of beach. He then calmly takes his sunglasses off, gets out of the car, puts his sunglasses back on and executes an Unflinching Walk, complete with badass black clothes and sunglasses. YYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! |

Stationary variant: On Monster Garage, Jesse James stays completely still and unflinching in the foreground as the show's first failed creation, a car-crushing hearse, is itself fed into a car crusher, then blown up spectacularly due to a jug of propane planted in it by the crew. | |

Metal Gear Solid: Subverted when Snake starts to do this after blowing up a helicopter he was fighting, but then turns around and runs to the railing to watch the explosion. He then walks away once the explosion is over, followed up with "That takes care of the cremation". Played straight in Twin Snakes: Snake looks off the building as the helicopter falls, says "See you in hell, Liquid", then walks away as the helicopter blows up. |

In The Blues Brothers, the gas station where Jake and Elwood have to stop to refuel the Bluesmobile blows up spectacularly immediately when they leave again due to spilled gasoline. The Blues Brothers don't care for the fireball behind them. Then again, this isn't the first explosion in the film they pretty much shrug off, and this time, things don't explode around them for a change. The scene was cut from the theatrical release, but reintroduced in the extended cut. | |

While they don't exactly walk away, Super Sentai and Power Rangers often wrap up roll calls with an explosion of flame and/or colored smoke going off behind the team while they strike an Ass Kicking Pose or "Super Sentai" Stance. These scenes are known in some fan communities as the "Exploding Fart Shot". They and their Humongous Mecha would also often turn away from their enemies just having dealt the killing blow, which would result in an explosion behind them. In one memorable instance, the heroes of Power Rangers: Dino Thunder turn around for the Victory Pose... but the monster was Not Quite Dead, and blasts them while their backs are turned. Later on during Power Rangers Samurai, defeated monsters would discuss how they find the Rangers turning their backs like that insulting: The Turbo Megazord in Power Rangers Turbo/RV Robo in Gekisou Sentai Carranger actually had a special pose - on the left knee, sword pointed towards the camera, BOOM in the background. Actually not so surprising, given that the attack in question involves a lot of spinning. (It got old fast, though, because this part was Stock Footage; for a good chunk of Turbo, you never got to see the monster actually blow up. Feels less real when the monster's destruction is the same stock shot.) In Power Rangers' 10th Anniversary Reunion Show, "Forever Red", the Red Turbo Ranger finishes off one of the villains with a spinning attack with his sword, and lands in the very same pose as the Turbo Megazord as the enemy goes 'boom' in the background. Subverted in one episode of Gogo Sentai Boukenger where the Red Ranger was afflicted with bad luck, so wore various lucky charms into battle. The Exploding Fart set the charms on fire, and the other Rangers had to take a minute to put Red out while the villains laughed their asses off. (Pity the scene wasn't carried over into Power Rangers Operation Overdrive; the villains had to make do with laughing their asses off at the ridiculous charms.) But Power Rangers RPM makes up for it. Not only does one episode lampshade such explosions, but the Blue Ranger's attempt at fixing a glitch in his morpher runs the risk of cranking the blast up... so he aims the Exploding Fart at The Dragon and her Mooks and fires away. Needless to say, the bad guys aren't so unflinching. Occasionally, a Megazord will walk into the explosions that are being launched at them. When a Megazord does walk through an enemy's attack like that, monster ass is about to get kicked. In Juken Sentai Gekiranger, the heroes' first fight using their new Super Mode ends with Jan kicking Rio's ass, then walking away as Rio collapses amidst explosions. Choujuu Sentai Liveman had Red Falcon, realizing that Baron Ashura's Fatal Flaw was that he had lost the ability to comprehend emotions, pull an unflinching walk towards the villain, ignoring enemy attacks that hit him, knocking Hacker-Brain out of his path with a roundhouse kick, until he was able to pull a Punch Catch on Ashura and nail him right in the kisser. Samurai Sentai Shinkenger had an awe-inspiring scene in the Final Battle. After just barely beating Chimatsuri Doukoku's first life, the Shinkengers responded to his second life by forming Zen Samurai Gattai SamuraiHaoh before they slowly advanced on Doukoku, purging Origami as they got too badly damaged until they were reduced to the base Samurai Gattai Shinken-Oh. All of this so the Shinkengers could conserve their remaining Mojikara for one final Samurai Slash. |

Igniting a fort's powder store in Assassin's Creed III gives the player just enough time to pull of such a walk themselves. |

Frank Castle, better known as The Punisher, did this twice in the second live action movie of the same name. The first time is when he leaves a tripwire mine with the wire stretched tight in the hand of a mafia boss's son, with the implication that eventually he'll drop the heavy explosive, and sure enough it happens just in time to frame Frank's exit. The second time is even more over the top as Frank kills the mafia boss responsible for the death of his family by detonating car fuel tanks in a pre-programmed sequence, all of which light up behind him as he walks away. As if this weren't enough, the burning wrecks trace out his trademark skull logo when viewed from the air. | |

Doctor Who: "The Greatest Show in the Galaxy": Here. Though it's worth noting that Sylvester McCoy didn't actually get quite far enough and was slightly caught in the heat blast. Fortunately, his earliest stage days had involved a lot of "don't try this at home" high-jinks with pyrotechnics. In fact, he was told not to expect a massive explosion, and that most of it would be put in with special effects afterwards. When the whole tent set exploded behind him, he ended up having to do the Unflinching Walk for real, because he knew they couldn't afford a second take. "Voyage of the Damned": The Tenth Doctor does this after Astrid and Capricorn's deaths. And again in "The Poison Sky". Desperate boy points gun at him? He just wrenches it out of his hands, tosses it aside, and grumbles, all without slowing his stride. Rose Tyler in "The Stolen Earth", while toting a BFG. "The End of Time": When the Doctor is finally able to speak to the Master. The Master is able to fire lightning from his hands. He misses twice, and not only does the Doctor not stop or even slow down, he doesn't even change his facial expression. Promptly subverted, though, when said lightning-flinger actually manages to hit him, and he's reduced to writhing on the ground in pain. Companion Rory Williams caps his ascension from Butt-Monkey to Badass in the opening of "A Good Man Goes to War". An entire Cyber-fleet is blowing up behind him, and he merely stares at the Cybermen in front of him, and says, "Would you like me to repeat the question?" (Alas, no walk, but it definitely falls under the "not looking at the explosion" heading.) Tripled in awesomeness in "The Day of the Doctor", where Ten, Eleven, and War all walk out of the Gallifreyan painting after blasting their way in with a Dalek. Clara outright calls it "showing off". Yasmin Khan does this in "The Power of the Doctor," carrying a dying Thirteen in a determined walk to the TARDIS as an entire planet crumbles all around them. |

In Desperado El Mariachi tosses a couple of grenades down into the alley by Carolina’s bookstore to dispatch a couple of mooks, then Carolina and him stride away looking cool with the explosion in the background. An impressive calm for an unremarkable bookstore owner. | |

But Power Rangers RPM makes up for it. Not only does one episode lampshade such explosions, but the Blue Ranger's attempt at fixing a glitch in his morpher runs the risk of cranking the blast up... so he aims the Exploding Fart at The Dragon and her Mooks and fires away. Needless to say, the bad guys aren't so unflinching. | |

The Legend of Korra: Korra blowing a giant fireball into Big Bad Amon's airship barely makes him break his stride. His minions, meanwhile, are blown away. This is especially impressive if his backstory, in which his parents were murdered and his face burned away by a firebender, is true. It is not. In a later episode, Amon was able to resist Tarrlok's bloodbending as he slowly walked towards him, and was at worst slowed down a bit. Deconstructed with The Reveal: Amon is a psychic bloodbender who uses bloodbending to throw his opponents' aim off slightly so he won't be hit and so does not need to dodge. When Korra airbends at him and he wasn't ready for it, he went flying. |

In Paths of Glory (1957) by Stanley Kubrick, there is a scene where, prior to a deadly battle, colonel Dax (Kirk Douglas) walks through the trenches, while bombs land on the surrounding terrain. The soldiers all flinch; but Dax does not react at all. If the film were made today, the sequence would have been in slow motion with muted sound, and with a slow sad song playing in the background. | |

Samurai Sentai Shinkenger had an awe-inspiring scene in the Final Battle. After just barely beating Chimatsuri Doukoku's first life, the Shinkengers responded to his second life by forming Zen Samurai Gattai SamuraiHaoh before they slowly advanced on Doukoku, purging Origami as they got too badly damaged until they were reduced to the base Samurai Gattai Shinken-Oh. All of this so the Shinkengers could conserve their remaining Mojikara for one final Samurai Slash. | |

LEGO Masters had a destruction challenge where the contestants had to build an action scene in this style, with a minifigure in front and a bigger model that would get blown up behind them. In one team's build, the explosion knocked over the minifigure and the build was criticized for failing the "unflinching" part, but the team managed to avoid being eliminated. | |

In John Carpenter's Vampires James Woods gets one of these after the Big Bad attacks and slaughters his vampire hunting team at a post vamp-kill party. More badass points for this since the reason he is blowing up the motel is NOT to avenge his friends and kill anybody, but rather because he feels that it's the best way to hide any evidence. | |

Breaking Bad Mr. White pulls one of these in "Cancer Man" when he loses his patience with a rude, obnoxious businessman and puts a squeegee on his car battery, shorting it out. At first the viewer is amazed at how much White's morals have slipped as he walks away, AND THEN THE CAR EXPLODES. Mr. White, of course, does not flinch. This happens again in the third season premiere when the two mysterious bald Mexican gangsters murder everyone in the truck they are using to cross the border into Texas, after which they set fire to the aforementioned vehicle. This had to be done in one take, and Bryan Cranston, who directed the episode, basically threatened the actors into not flinching, and also suggested a casual cigarette-drag as they walked away. It worked. Mr. White tries an unflinching walk again after totaling his car, then leaving a flaming newspaper in the gas tank as a fuse. But the fuse is too long, so after he reaches a comfortable distance he takes a seat on the asphalt and waits for it to explode. In "Bug", Gus Fring walked out in the open while a Cartel sniper was firing at him the whole time. Gus figured that the Cartel needed him alive more than dead and that they were only trying to bluff and scare him. He was right. Mr. White, taking his final form as Heisenberg, does a spectacular one in the Season 4 finale when he and Jesse blow up the super meth lab under the laundry. After Walt shouts "Vamonos!" and the employees scatter, they walk away nonchalantly as the conflagration resonates and the hidden entrance erupts in smoke in the background. |

Used in Black Hawk Down; every time McKnight's convoy stops, he gets out of his truck and strolls around, apparently oblivious to the bullets/RPGs flying all around him, to find out what's going on. Kind of justified, as you can't see bullets, and usually won't see the RPGs, so stopping to look just wastes time and makes you a target. | |

The Exploding Fart set the charms on fire, and the other Rangers had to take a minute to put Red out while the villains laughed their asses off. (Pity the scene wasn't carried over into Power Rangers Operation Overdrive; the villains had to make do with laughing their asses off at the ridiculous charms.) | |

Used on Burn Notice in the Season 1 finale, when Michael and Sam were running off a boat, After Mike rescues Sam, they cross the gangplank Mike rigged with a bomb, and kept on running as the gangplank exploded. Michael had the unflinching...er...run, but Sam, having not been told about the bomb, was freaking out in glorious slow motion. And they put it in the opening sequence. Also played with in an earlier episode, when Michael demonstrates the C4 that he is trying to sell (of course, the rest of it is fake). He walks slowly away, waits until after he is outside the blast radius, stops, and then detonates it. He never flinches; just says "Are we in business?" |

This was parodied in a great scene on the Kamen Rider Decade special features, where various Kamen Riders hold a footrace to see who has the fastest landspeed. Most of the other Riders make a show of it, but Black just does an Unflinching Walk around the track, slow-mo and all. The other Kamen Riders proceed to reset the finishing line tape for him and declare him the winner when he finally gets to the end. | |

And Billy Russo does the same after blowing up a building in The Punisher (2017). | |

The last ten seconds of Rammstein's video for "Du Hast" has the band doing a Team Power Walk across a field with a massive bomb explosion behind them. It's awesome. | |

Of all people, Princess Peach does this in the Subspace Emissary mode (one-player story mode) of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Fox is up on his Arwing, blowing up the deck of the Halberd (on which Peach and Sheik are standing) and the glorious explosions blooming behind her seem to affect her as much as a warm breeze. DK and Diddy Kong get one in their introduction. The last Bullet Bill goes off with the two of them standing between it and the camera striking an Ass Kicking Pose. |

Lampshaded in The Angry Joe Show review of Just Cause 2 when Rico jumps out of a building that explodes behind him. "Cool guys don't look at explosions!" comes up in the subtitles. | |

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption: One of these happens after every major boss. Samus casually strolls away while the Phazon Core she just gave a Phlebotinum Overload comes crashing down behind her and starts exploding. Made extra badass because each of these events also increases her corruption level, and yet she continues like nothing happened. Happens on Elysia, where you can drop a bridge out from under a crowd of Tinbots by grappling out the support gates. As the bridge collapses, the camera focuses on Samus' back as she calmly walks away. The whole sequence earns you a "Stylish Kill" token voucher. |

A lot of characters utilize this trope in Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory II though this is most prominent in the Combination Attack of The Gold Third when they join your party. | |
